Dave Reid learned to sail Mirrors in Peterhead Bay Scotland in the 80’s. He designed the model for Sail Transport Company after realizing that it could be the simplest way to harness abundant wind and tidal power. Dave loves the navigational and natural challenges of building regular scheduled petroleum free sail transport routes in the Northwest Inland waters. Dave’s boat Whisper is one of the few cruiser/racer sloops fitted for pure engineless sailing, in his spare time he loves to train sailors in engineless navigation especially close quarter navigation and docking.
