We haven't heard from the present owners
of Sea Foam, so we cannot be sure that our ownership and home port
information is up to date. But we have discovered that
former owners, Herb and Nancy Payson, who cruised the Pacific in her for
many years have a wonderful web site that includes a lot of photos. Many
of them are included below, complements of Herb and Nancy.

Herb Payson is the author of Blown
Away and You Can't Blow Home Again, two books that
document their six and a half years of cruising with their children throughout
the broad Pacific on the Sea Foam, told as only Herb could do. |
After parting with Sea Foam, Herb and Nancy remained
ashore for seven years, but then purchased "Red
Shoes," a Crealock 34, and spent another ten years
cruising. After that they spent four years "trailer
sailing" while writing articles for SAIL magazine. SAIL
magazine has featured dozens of Herb's articles over the years.
He began writing for SAIL during his Sea Foam
years, and his name appeared on masthead for thirty years.
Herb's most recent book, published in
1997 by Sheridan House, is Advice to the Sealorn,
a distillation of over 20 years of sailing experience, and
advice "...written in the same charming and funny style as
Herb's previous stories..."
Herb says, "We're out of sailing
now, but I wouldn't trade those years for anything."
