Maintenance My Way.
Some people are wired for repairs. I’m… not one of them.
Today I’m rowing ashore to get my broken Zero Breeze air conditioner looked at (and its stubborn battery). Thankfully, my friend Martin is an electrical wizard—because my strengths lie elsewhere.
Like sunscreen.
Thanks to my friends at Dermalogica Tokyo, I’ve learned the importance of skin maintenance—especially when you’re 70+ and rowing half a kilometer in the summer sun.
So while I may not fix electronics, I do take SPF 50 seriously.
Because hey—it’s never too late to take care of yourself… or ask for help.
💧 I use the Hyaluronic Ceramide Mist and SPF 50 protection from Dermalogica.

Pacific Solo
Hi, I`m Lowell, a 67-year-old rookie sailor, and a never-too-later! I preparing myself for the biggest challenge of my life: a solo journey across the North Pacific. I am a Canadian living in Japan, and in 2019, I purchased Wahine, a 1988 Gib Sea 402. I moved on board while she was moored in Tokyo. In March 2021, I terminated my contract with the Marina and have been cruising Japan full time since gaining valuable experience all the while working remotely from the boat. Wahine is my home, my studio, and my lab. Join me on my learning voyage around Japan, trying to prepare myself for Pacific Solo. If you want to see where I am please go to my website and click on the Where`s Wahine Button at https://www.pacificsolo.com Also, if you are a fellow never-too-later check out www.nevertoolateacademy.com PSThe History Channel asked if they follow me into various remote ports for a new series called Dare to Dream. The pilot airs in Japan July 24th at 8pm.

70, Sweaty, and Still in the Game #boatlife #japan #travel
Cardio at 70+? You bet. On the Boat I naturally get upper body workouts, jsut but doing what I have to do. But cardio and leg movements not so much. So, now that my foldable bike is fixed, I’m riding the hills around Buren Bay, with Wahine moored just ...

Enjoying Sunset and Outdoor Cooking Onboard #boatlife #travel #sailingjapan
It’s a hot evening, so supper’s being cooked outside—simple chicken, spinach, and potatoes under the open sky. I’m using the mug my brother gave me from caribou country, where he’s living his dream in a tiny house with his wife Tracy. The heat m...
Before Pacific Solo there was a Bike and.Volcano!
25 years ago, I began an epic 3,000 km bicycle journey the length of Japan—chasing cherry blossoms from south to north. On Day One, I rode 125 km to Sakurajima, one of Japan’s most active volcanoes and a symbol of resilience. I turned 70 recently, and...
