Four Seattle Yacht Club Members Join West Coast Circumnavigators’ List

This article is reprinted from Latitude 38.

Seattle Yacht Club member Dan Barr wrote last week that we were missing a few names from Latitude 38’s West Coast Circumnavigators’ List. As Dan wrote, “With great pleasure, I am forwarding you names of four members of the Seattle Yacht Club I believe are missing from your Circumnavigators’ List, and which I think should be included, from our list of nine Seattle Yacht Club circumnavigators we have identified so far.”

We’ve added the following names to the list:

  • Lawrence Killam, Graybeard, 1971, Cruising Club of America Circumnavigation.
  • Richard McCurdy, Active Light, 1977–82.
  • Behan, Jamie, Niall, Mairen, and Siobhán Gifford, Totem, 2008–18, Cruising Club of America and Ocean Cruising Club circumnavigation awards.
  • James Utzschneider, Jenna, Leo and Hazel Miller, Sophie, 2012–2021. 100,000 miles.
