Autorenporträt

Jon Howe grew up along the Gulf Coast of Florida. A few years after college, he moved to the Pacific Northwest, got his captain's license, taught sailing for five years, managed a fleet of charter boats for ten, and sold boats for fifteen. In between, he raced to Hawaii, skippered charters, and delivered yachts. When he retired, he sold his house to buy the boat he would live aboard for fourteen years. He sailed around Central America to Florida, down the West Indies to Colombia and Panama, out to Hawaii, and then back to the Pacific Northwest. He now lives with his beloved on San Juan Island, near his family.
