Touch of Gray AT362-01

Hello! We are Janine and Nick Mott of Tacoma WA. We spend a large part of the year on our American Tug, Touch of Gray, which is moored at Skyline (Anacortes). We like to visit our favorite spots and search out new locations to explore and enjoy.


This blog is mostly Janine's boating journal - a place to record remembrances and observations about people, places, and vessel-related information. It's also a place where family and friends can keep up with our travels and experiences.
