For many years I have been working towards my dream of sailing a small sailboat across the Atlantic ocean single-handed. My first attempt was 7 years ago (Click here to see my posts of that adventure) I left Toronto in the spring and returned late summer having made a round trip from Nova Scotia and back. This time I will be departing from Toronto July 18 2021, making my way down the St.Lawrence and will decide where to go from there, stay tuned. Use this link to track my progress. I have built a complete engraving studio aboard my sailboat, Zeelandia, and I intend to keep engraving while “out there”  I’m happy to take orders for delivery when I return. And I will be making and selling things to fund my adventures here. Please feel free to contact me via email david@truehand.com. I am happy to discuss custom work and take definite advance orders. I apologize to anyone who hoped to get their pipe silver delivered during the next 6-12 months but I will definitely be back, ready to get back into the full swing of things on my return late summer of 2022 (depending on weather patterns in the north Atlantic)
