About the Omarsea Crew

We are the Trefethens. After 10 years of planning we decided to sell our home and buy a sailboat. In November 2007 we departed Portland Oregon for the Virgin Islands and our 50 foot sloop the OMARSEA. Our three children Ben, Juli and Steve are enjoying the benefits of being homeschooled. Join us on our continuing adventures as we explore the East coast of America on the way to New Zealand.

Sailing to Bequia


Our next port of call will be Bequia in the Grenadines. It is the whaling capitol of the Caribbean and visited by thousands of yachts each year. Our trip there should be exciting. The weather has established what forecaster's call an Omega Block High. The result is nonstop 30 MPH winds and 15 foot sea's offshore lasting as long as 3 weeks according to NOAA. Stay Tuned and see how the Trefethen family weathers the storm.
