Stimulus Detox Experience

$1,150.00

Are you tired of running from one thing to the next? Do you feel like your life is on rails? What quality of decisions would you make if you could just stop long enough to think? 


Maybe you need a stimulus detox. 


New Adventures Sailing offers an exclusive 4-7 day detox experience.


Start with a ferry ride, we’ll pick you up and take you for a home cooked meal, a 1 hour massage with a nationally certified massage therapist. Then you arrive at the sailing yacht Redemption where you will spend the night aboard in your private cabin. We'll leave for a nearby anchorage for a good night sleep. No technology, we’ll gladly hold your phones or place them in airplane mode. They make good cameras. No social media, news or other external stimulus. We may offer Mocktails or tea for a relaxing evening. 


We depart in the morning for the San Juan Islands 25-35 miles across the Strait of Juan de Fuca and arrive a peaceful anchorage on San Juan or Shaw Island.


Since this is a detox, we encourage walks in the woods, paddle boarding or maybe a cold-plunge in the 55 degree Salish Sea. Then warm up and read a book, or just chat about life. 


We can arrange whale watching excursions baed in Friday or Roche Harbors via kayak or tour boat. 


Sample locally sourced seafood, coffee, ice cream and stroll through small towns along the waterfront. 


Maybe even take a nap in a hammock slowly rocking at anchor. 


This will be a sober experience, no alcohol needed. We encourage journaling and time to take inventory of your life and opportunities. 

Ready to reset? Sail on Redemption.


Add to cart qty = the number of days you want, 4 day minimum.

Price per cabin per day, one couple max for privacy.

Sea Day 1 09/14/2016 Alameda, CA to Ayala Cove, Angel Island

Finally we left! We went from the slip to the gas dock. We fueled up, 10 gallons; picked up more oil absorbing pads; pumped out the holding tank and then left. We went out into the bay where I formerly drove the boat. Turning donuts in the water, 90* port, 90* starboard (simulating a tack or jibe). I sped up, slowed down, full stop, reversed. Tim and I practiced anchoring after we ran through the whole with without anchoring. That is motor into the wind, slow down, stop the boat, then reverse to set the anchor. We anchored for lunch. To our surprise, the windlass did not work under load and Tim had to haul the anchor up by hand. Thankfully he only paid out about 40 feet of chain rode and the anchor is a 35 pounder. I guess we will have to keep that in mind if we decide to anchor on this trip.

We motored from Ballena Bay to Ayala Cove on the north side of Angel Island. When we got there it was crazy-town! We circled around the mooring buoys to read them. Then we decided to dock at the 15 minutes dock to pay for the mooring. The waves and current made it so we couldn’t safely dock after a couple attempts on the 15 minutes unloading dock, so we chose another one to tie up to. The wind was blowing us onto the dock along with the current. We were pushed up hard onto the dock. I was concerned about our boat even though we had fenders out. We finished up the permit details and left the rough dock for find our mooring balls. We were very grateful for the happy hookers that allowed us to harpoon the ring on the mooring balls. This park requires bow and stern ties. We have been messing with them all evening. We are currently fighting some mosquitos that got in while we were watching the moon and cooking our salmon. There’s what appears to be a full moon this evening. 

I drove a lot today, just getting used to the boat and how she handles. The current, wave action and wind really made confused seas. Our boat handles very well. We are pleased. So I am very tired and heading to bed shortly after we settle on our leave plans for the morning.I feel accomplished having done all we did today. All is well.

    Tim & Lynette Jenné have their feet firmly planted in midair. We don't know what tomorrow brings, but are very excited to see what surprises come our way. ​Tim's favorite leadership quote:
    "If you want to build a ship, don't drum up people to collect wood and don't assign them tasks and work, but rather teach them to long for the endless immensity of the sea." Antoine de Saint-Exupery

    ​Captain John Jenne (1596 - 1643), son of Henry Jenne and Mary Smythe, was born 21 December 1596 at Lakenham Parish, Norfolk, England; He married Sarah Carey. They emigrated to the Colonies from Leyden in 1623 aboard the Little James, accompanied by the ship Anne. Their daughter Sarah was born 23 July 1623, at sea.
