LIN AND LARRY PARDEY

'Lin and Larry Pardey' are a married couple famous internationally for their expertise in small boat sailing. They have sailed about 180,000 miles together. Larry built the two boats they used for two circumnavigations. Neither boat had an engine. They have also delivered race boats and charter boats.
Larry (born 1939 in Victoria, British Columbia Lin & Larry - The Cold Hard Facts (bio) ) won the International Oceanic Award from the Royal Institute of Navigation in 1996, and was presented this honour by the Princess Royal, Princess Anne in 1997.
Lin (born 1944 in Detroit, Michigan) was awarded the Geoff Pack award by the Ocean Cruising Club in 2001 and they both received the SSCA Service Award in 2004. They currently race a 110 year old cutter in New Zealand but still cruise on board their cutter Taleisin part of each year.
In May of 2007, Lin and Larry entrusted the foundry casting patterns for Taleisin to the safe keeping and management of the Spaulding Wooden Boat Center in Sausalito, California. The patterns will be used for education programs at the Center by the Arques School of Traditional Boatbuilding and loaned to others who wish to have parts cast.
