Capt. Douglas Danielson --- Boat Skipper
Doug Danielson began sailing in 1970 on a Coronado 27’ when dared by a friend. Since that time he has owned three sailing yachts: a Santana 27’, Santana 35’, and Norseman 447.
 From 1978 to 1985 Doug and his family raced and cruised their Santana 35’ off the coasts of California and Mexico.
In 1989, Doug and his wife Karen sailed “TSUNAMI”, their Norseman 447, double-handed from San Diego, California to Waikiki, Hawaii, completing the crossing in 20 days.
By this time it was obvious that sailing and the marine industry was Doug’s true passion. In 1992 Doug retired from the practice of architecture to pursue his avocation full-time.
Doug is a highly proficient captain with extensive experience on both power and sailing vessels.
He has piloted the waters of the Pacific Coast from Oregon to Hawaii to the Panama Canal.
He has also made passages through the Gulf of Mexico, the Caribbean Sea, the Bahamas, and the Intercoastal waters of Florida.
He is a knowledgeable marine surveyor, experienced mechanic, meticulous navigator, good cook, and published writer. |
