Rick Escher Email & Phone Number

* 2015-present. Sailing on a St Francis 50 catamaran. My wife and I are enjoying our kids. We've bought a sailing catamaran, we're home schooling, we've rented our house, given away our things, and gone sailing.People who have done this before speak very highly of the experience. Jimmy Cornell told me that not a day that goes by, no matter where he is in the world, that he does not have a "substantive conversation" with his now grown children. He entirely attributes this to the years they spent sailing as a family.Come sail with us. We have a spare cabin and would welcome visitors. The only caveat is that you help with the home schooling and share and discuss ideas you are passionate about with our kids. * 2000-2015.
