Thank you for visiting S/V While One, our blog for capturing our adventures on a 2021 Nauatitech 46 Open Catamaran.
We began our journey together in college over 30 years ago. started a family and raised 3 wonderful kids. Together, after working in tech collectively for over 50 years, we’ve decided it was time for our next chapter. So, we hung up our soldering irons, powered down our debuggers to pursue a lifelong dream of cruising and traveling. Come follow us as we learn how to navigate these life changes, ready ourselves and our boat, for our next While One loop of travel, exploration, adventure, family, love and friendship.
Welcome While One, the sailing and cruising website of Sherine & Timothy (Mike) Johnson.
We’ve owned three boats since 2007 including a Ranger 33, Catalina 42 and are now patiently waiting for the 2022 Miami Boat Show to complete so that I can fly to Miami and deliver While One to Titusville, where I’ve been fortunate enough to find a slip that didn’t break the bank.
Check out some of the refits on Farraige or stop back for our projects on While One as we get it ready for full-time cruising.
