About the author

Glenora Doherty, B.Ed., has sailed over 30,000 nautical miles aboard the Reliance 44 ketch, Wanderlust V, which she and her family built from a bare hull, and has served as crew on other offshore boats. Wanderlust V gained international recognition due to Peter’s popularity with cruising SSB nets in Mexico and due to the Cruising World Magazine articles Glenora wrote about their knockdown in Hurricane Marty in 2003. Glenora is the Past Commodore of Bluewater Cruising Association and served as editor of the Association’s newsletter, Currents, for six years. She sings with Vancouver’s fabulous show chorus, the Maple Leaf Singers; and volunteers as Administrator for New Beginnings Community Church. She lives in her own home, ‘Wanderer’s Rest’, in Surrey, BC, where she enjoys hosting family and friends.
