50 Years and 50,000 Miles of Sailing

by Dale L. Parshall

In 50 years and 50,000 miles of both racing and cruising, Dale has truly experienced a lifetime of sailing adventures. Some big, some small, some funny, some naive, and some quite serious. All true, and all on the water under sail. Winning the Single Handed Transpac from San Francisco to Hawaii, and cruising from San Francisco to New Zealand and back are the highlights. But it all started when he was a beginning sailor racing against Olympic medalists every weekend. Later, the tides in San Francisco Bay and the horizon on the ocean became new challenges. The beauty of the North Pacific High, the small shy children of Tonga, and sailing the deep ocean at night added vividly to his memories. From this tapestry of sailing adventures, "50 Years and 50,000 Miles of Sailing" relates the experiences that gave richness to Dale's life in sailing.
