Lin & Larry Pardey

Lin and Larry are among America's (and the world's) most knowledgeable and recognized cruising sailors. They are known as "America's first couple of cruising."

The Playlist will soon include all five of Lin and Larry Pardey's Offshore Sailing videos - a timeless, classic collection of films about the skills required to become a safe and confident blue water sailor. We will also be adding interviews with Lin & Larry, and other videos from their long and celebrated sailing career.

Together, the Pardeys have sailed over 200,000 miles, including two circumnavigations east to west and west to east aboard self-built, wooden, engine-free cutters under 30 feet. Author of a dozen books, countless magazine articles, and co-creators of five cruising documentaries, Lin and Larry have shared their sailing experiences with tens of thousands around the globe prompting many to take up the sport and live the dream of the cruising lifestyle. They have preached their motto of "Go simple, go modest, go small--just go".
