ON JUNE 16, 2006, the David B left Bellingham, Washington bound for
Juneau, Alaska, on her maiden voyage as a passenger vessel. Eight
years earlier, Christine and Jeffrey had found the David B tucked
behind a breakwater on Lopez Island. The tired old wooden boat,
built in 1929, was showing her age. When the young couple stepped
aboard the neglected vessel, her sturdy work-boat style captured
their hearts with an ageless beauty that only the young dreamers
could see. Their desire was to own and operate a small expedition
cruise ship in Alaska. With their love for one another and without
much income, they pinned their hopes and sheer will on rebuilding
the dying boat. What they thought would be a two-year project,
became an eight-year tug-of-war between time and money as they
raced to finish rebuilding the David B before it was too late. More
Faster Backwards is the story of Christine and Jeffrey's uncertain
struggle to rebuild the David B and their journey to Alaska on an
untested seventy-seven year old boat to begin the life of their
dreams.
