About Herb Benavent Books
Herb Benavent, the Rigging Doctor, has been living the cruising life since 2017, when he and his wife, Maddie, left Baltimore, Maryland, and set off to do the impossible: cruise full-time in a 1968 Morgan 45 with an electric motor and synthetic rigging, showing how you can sail sustainably as far as your heart desires! Some 18,000 nautical miles later, they have sailed to the Bahamas, Bermuda, the Azores, Portugal, Spain, Gibraltar, Morocco, Madeira, Cape Verde, Suriname, the U.S. Virgin Islands, and Puerto Rico. Currently, Herb and Maddie are back living in Baltimore as they refit a 1966 Alberg 30 into a proper cruising yacht.
