The Crew

Jon is a retired Naval officer who will forever be learning to sail with a crew that doesn't necessarily take orders or care much about rank. Someday he may fully recover.  In the meantime, he's happily sailing.

Megan is a systems engineer on sabbatical. As such, she has designated Jon as their vessel's Chief Engineer, and supervises all mechanical and electrical work from a comfortable seat in the sun.  Megan also spent some time in the Navy, and thanks the institution for teaching her to sail a real boat in addition to letting her play with its fighter jets and capital ships.

Ronan is the studious bookworm with a sense of humor so dry the desert seems humid (or maybe that's just climate change). Always curious and bored with what he already knows, he's enjoying boat school and always reading.

Daxton is the comedian and performer who never can pass up a stage. He's always devising new ways to test his boat school teachers and principals. 

Athena and Poseidon were our adventurous and faithful sailing cats for many years. They were the real masters of the boat and were always quite sure the rest of the crew were aboard strictly for their benefit. Without them we are all a bit lost.
