Wil Spaul and ‘Chubby Girl’ Head Out the Gate
Last week we posted a story about Wil Spaul’s upcoming voyage to Hawaii aboard his tiny sailboat. Yesterday he cast off the docklines and headed out the Gate.
Mitch and Quincy Andrus were out enjoying the Bay this past weekend aboard their Kelly Peterson 46 Esprit when they happened across Wil Spaul leaving for Hawaii aboard his 9-ft sailboat, Chubby Girl.
Mitch relayed, “We enjoyed fantastic sailing on Saturday, and a hot motor back to Berkeley early afternoon today. We grabbed a couple photos of Wilbur Spaul and the Chubby Girl. As we motored by he jovially said, ‘I’m headed to Hawaii, two months!’ and held up the peace sign.”
You can listen to Wil Spaul talk about his voyage to Hawaii on Ben Shaw’s Out the Gate, and you can follow Chubby Girl ‘s journey here.
Hello from Paris,
Do you know of any proper Chubby Girl’s pictures taken under sails ? It’s hard to figure how she sails without seeing her sailing…
Thanks,
JLG
