Scott has been boating since he was 10. His first adventure, at the ripe age of 12, was crossing Cape Cod Bay in Massachusetts and over to Nantucket with an 11-year-old friend in a 16’ Boston Whaler. He has cruised extensively on the East Coast in both power and sail boats. Scott finally made it to the West Coast when he and his father had a boat build in Olympia WA by Sam Devlin. Scott and his father operated the Sockeye 42 for 19 years before selling the boat in 2022.
Scott dreamed of cruising more extensively and followed the FPB series design by Steve “Skip” Dashew from the beginning. He bought Sarah-Sarah in 2018 and has spent the last seven years, 4600 hours, and 42,000 miles cruising. After spending 15 months over 3 years exploring Alaska, Scott led a group of 24 other motor yachts from San Diego to La Paz Mexico before heading south and eventually going through the Panama Canal. After two years on the east coast and many months in the Caribbean, he was longing for colder waters and big ice and decided that 2025 was the year for the Northwest Passage.
