The Crew

Who Will You See?

Two great people. On the Left is my friend, Dave Howell – boat builder and world sailor. On the right is my dad, Brian Scott #1 – pilot and world traveler.

Some of the Crew:

  • Jody – The Captain’s wife, first mate, and by default the new CEO of Freebird.
  • Big Brian – A retired Air Force Pilot who also happens to be the captain’s dad and mentor.
  • Dave – Former crew. A retired firefighter who built Freebird and sailed her around the world on a 10 year odyssey.
  • Judy – Former crew. Dave’s wife and experienced first mate who once did a nitrogen dive on the Saratoga down to 150 feet in the Bikini Atoll.

Who else will we “shanghai” to help crew Freebird? Lots to choose from:

  • Kids, spouses and boyfriends: all with a mix of talents as soccer players, firefighters, teachers, nurses, scuba divers, volleyball players, hunters and so on.
  • Extended family: my mom, brother, sisters, in-laws and cousins who want to help during the long passages, each with their own unique skills and experience.
