Maps of the sea made at sea
Because my homebase is a sailboat, these maps have been painstakingly (sometimes nauseatingly) crafted when the seastate is calm enough for me to do design work.
I've launched this shop with three maps of my home waters, but more will get made as I find time between boat projects and salty adventures.
Plan better adventures. Tell better stories.
There's over 16,000 nautical miles of #SatlyAF coastline in this province. You should probably go see some of it.

Baja and the Gulf of California
Coloured so you can feel the sand stuck in your contacts and the salt stinging your eyes. Oh!?! Is that a teenager in a miltary uniform, with a big gun, waving for you to pull over? Did a pelican just fly by? Are you gonna get sick from eating that?
This map is perfect for reliving and/or planning sailing trips, surf trips, and those long mysterious van trips some of you do :)
If you're into it, join my mailing list to be the first to know when this, or something else, gets launched. My promise to you: no fluff, just things that are #SaltyAF
