Meet the Sailing Totem crew
Behan Gifford
Behan sailed south from the Pacific Northwest in 2008 with her husband and three children aboard their Stevens 47, Totem. Sabbatical plans morphed into an open-ended adventure, with 48 countries/territories visited while putting over 65,000 miles under the keel to date. She is co-author of “Voyaging with Kids,” the de facto guide to cruising with children, and passionate about sharing her experiences to inspire others to chase the blue horizon.
Jamie Gifford
Jamie is a “recovering racing sailor.” His therapy was a 10-year circumnavigation with his wife and three children on Totem, their Stevens 47. As a sail designer, he was behind the sails for winners in the America’s Cup, Vendee Globe Challenge/BOC, Whitbread, and numerous other regattas. In recent years, Jamie’s focus is on cruising sails, rigging, and systems for offshore and regional sailors. His experience, accumulated through over 100,000 miles of sailing, affords him a vast knowledge on a wide variety of cruising-related topics.
