About the Owners (past and present)

Sean Kelly and Jan Chapman purchased Solana in 2006. They sailed her to San Diego in 2008 where she was their winter home until 2014. The 2008 economic downturn and the violence in Mexico dissuaded them from venturing farther south. In 2015 Solana was trucked back home to Anacortes, WA.
