Sailing SV Happy Together
Randy began sailing with his father and brother on San Francisco Bay in 1975. Together they raced and cruised the California coast. After moving to South Florida in 1983, the family pivoted to power boats and enjoyed cruising South Florida, the Florida Keys, and the Bahamas. Randy has enjoyed exposing his children and grandchildren to this lifestyle and they are all avid boaters today. After his youngest son went to college, Randy and Lennie purchased their first sailboat in the Caribbean and have since cruised with three different sailing yachts over 30,000 nautical miles. They have sailed throughout the Bahamas, Caribbean, Columbia, Panama, two transits of the Panama Canal, and the West Coast of North America from San Francisco to Panama.
In 2023, Randy and Lennie will take delivery of their new custom built, carbon fiber catamaran in Cape Town, South Africa. They plan to cruise worldwide with this new yacht.
Sailing SV Happy Together Youtube
In 2015 Randy began documenting the adventures of SV Happy Together on YouTube. It started as a way to share their adventures with friends and family and turned into a sailing channel hit. Sailing Happy Together was a top 20 on YouTube for a few years where they had millions of views and 30,000 subscribers. The channel was never promoted and grew organically through its fun content and advice to fellow sailors. The channel was non-monetized and raised money and awareness for Warrior Sailing.
No Labels
No Labels is an organization that was created over ten years ago by a group of concerned citizens who were tired of the increasing ineffectiveness of partisan politics. Today, No Labels includes 56 members of Congress and 8 Senators who strongly believe in bipartisan legislation to solve our Country’s biggest problems. Randy joined No Labels in 2020. After achieving his goals with the business, Randy wanted to be a part of this group’s efforts to improve our government for the future of his children and grandchildren.
