This German built 2001 center cockpit is berthed in Alamitos Bay, Long Beach. Lynn, professor and playwright, and Mark Nelson, fire engineer and art historian, bought the boat in 2001 in Vancouver, Canada and sailed it from there to Long Beach. Since then, Convergence has plied the waters of Southern California from the Mexican border to Santa Barbara and from the Sea of Cortez back home.
New Slip, sail, & canvas
Convergence has new canvas and is ready to sail for the summer of 2011. She is restored to her pre-Mexico cruise condition. We are on what has become the Seal Beach Yacht Club dock. www.sealbeachyc.org
For the truth is that I already know as much about my life as I need to know. The day will come when I will die. So the only matter of consequence before me is what I will do with my allotted time. I can remain onshore, paralyzed with fear, or I can raise my sails and dip and soar in the breeze.
