Doreen Green shared her experience Cruising from Moscow to St. Petersburg. The trip was full of history and gorgeous architecture, beautifully presented in Doreen's excellent photos and informed commentary. About Doreen Green
Doreen Green fell in love with sailing in her early 20s and has enjoyed messing about on small boats ever since. Her first purchase was a 16 foot Sirocco day sailer, followed by a 19 foot O'Day pocket cruiser. Then a Catalina 22 with a pop top that provided standing headroom – a real luxury. Her final boat was a Kelt 7.6, a real performer designed in France and manufactured in Aurora Ontario. Most of her sailing and cruising has been done single-handed. She has sailed on Lake Ontario, the Thousand Islands, and Georgian Bay including the North Channel. There was also a two-week cruise with her husband in the British Virgin Islands on a Catalina 42 – an unimaginably roomy boat by Doreen's standards. Her career at Bell Canada provided the finances for these various boats and cruises. Doreen retired as a Director of Finance 16 years ago. She currently no longer owns a boat but fortunately has friends who still do. These friends invite her onboard frequently, so her sailing days are far from over.
