the family logbook, 1990 to 2014
A Sea-Doo to Alaska, a jet ski around Haida Gwaii, and 16,300 km around Canada in a little Cessna called the Retro Rocket.
This blog is updated by Jack's daughter Louise. Dad has always been an explorer with an adventurous spirit and is now loving the freedom of retirement (and not having to take care of kids anymore:).
Louise, on the old blog
“This is our family 20 years ago on the Zodiac. He actually took this boat around Vancouver Island once. We spent many, many hours fishing, whale watching, and throwing up in this boat!”
Horseshoe Bay to Juneau and back on a jet ski
Cape Town, sharks, safari and the Mukeu dental clinic
A perfect day on the water
Three weeks by jet ski to the Queen Charlotte Islands

“Dad sent me 10 million pictures so I'm just adding a few of them.”
Louise, July 2007. We have since added all 310.

36 days, 16,300 km, solo, in the Retro Rocket. Watch the Retro Rocket fly the whole loop again, one blog post at a time, just the way the family followed it.
105 notes were left while Jack was out there. Here are three; the rest are pinned up in the guestbook.
