ABOUT US

Welcome to WaterWings Sailing! We are Kevin and Erin, two retired US Naval Flight Officers who traded in our horizontal wings for vertical ones. We sold everything we owned, which encompassed 2 houses, 2 cars, and a lifetime of memories to try to live the dream of sailing the world. 

WE'D LOVE TO HEAR FROM YOU

“There are good ships and wood shipsships that sail the sea, but the best ships are friendships, may they always be!
