February was a whirlwind of adventure—family, sailing, and the Osaka Marathon! 🏃♂️🚤
Spent an unforgettable month with my brother and cousin, exploring Japan by boat and land. From cruising Tokyo’s waterways to the energy of the Osaka Marathon, February was packed with incredible moments.
Now, I’m back on the boat, sailing north... but currently recovering from a run-in with norovirus on a small island. Not exactly the kind of adventure I planned! 😅
Check out the latest video for all the fun (minus the virus). Watch now! 🎥👉 https://youtu.be/5KnOE2gu13Y

Hi everyone! I could use your help. Season 7 of this channel launches in March—the same month I turn 70—and to celebrate, I’ll travel the length of Japan in my boat, recreating the journey I made by bicycle 25 years ago while following the Cherry Blossom. It’s a beautiful time to connect with people as they celebrate Spring beneath the Cherry Blossoms. My book, Chasing the Cherry Blossom, was inspired by that first trip, and this time I’m starting in Okinawa’s Blue Zone before heading north to meet folks in remote communities. I want to discover their secrets to living a long, energetic life.
So here’s where I need your help: I’m not sure what to name Season 7 of this channel. Here are the two options I am considering:

I’m spending Christmas on land with family in Tokyo and want to wish you all a joyous holiday season and fair winds in 2025!
Thank you for being part of this journey as I’ve shifted from my original goal of crossing the Pacific before turning 70 to embracing the adventure of exploring remote Japan by sailboat. 70 ports so far!
Stay tuned for Chasing the Cherry Blossom II in 2025—there’s so much more to come!

Hi, I`m Lowell, a 69-year-old rookie sailor and a never-too-later! I had an aspiration to sail across an ocean solo before I die. 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 living and slowly making my way around Japan, gaining valuable experience while working remotely from the boat. Wahine is my home, my studio, and my life laboratory. Because of various reasons explained in multiple videos, I have had to abandon my goal of crossing the Pacific before I am 70. Instead, I will complete a loop around Japan to celebrate turning 70 next year. But first, some boat projects.
Join me on my voyage around Japan.
