Leslie Linkkila and Philip Dinuovo

Leslie Linkkila and Philip DiNuovo became entranced with cruising in 1991, and in 2003 quit their careers and left the Pacific Northwest to cruise the South Pacific in their Mason 33, Carina. They closed the circle on their Pacific wanderings at Port Townsend, Washington, in 2017 after logging more than 41,000 nautical miles. They hope to mentor and inspire others in pursuing their own bluewater adventures.
