Morpheus was designed by Carl Schumacher, built by Davie Norris Boatbuilders in New Zealand and launched in 2002. She spent her first 18 months cruising the South Pacific before reaching her home port of San Francisco. Since that time, Morpheus has been raced and cruised extensively. This blog will document her ongoing adventures.

Clothing Optional??
I must admit to being a bit surprised myself, but I also suspect that if more people knew that packing the spinnaker was a clothing optional event the girls below might get just a bit more help!!! Way to go Kim!!
Lightning Storm
Once again in the better late than never category, here is a video that we took during one hell of a lightning storm that past through during the night while we were anchored one day short of Newport, RI. The thought did cross our minds that we'd traveled a long way only to be blown up the day prior to arrival!!
