About Us

Dogbark is an ocean racer turned expedition cruiser captained by Graeme Esarey and Al Hughes. Al won line honors in three TransPacs in the early 2000s. Graeme and his family cruised from the PNW to the Arctic to the South Pacific and back in 2018. Al, Graeme, and friends transited the Northwest Passage in 2024. To see where we are now, track us.
