Maggie Martin has been sailing with her husband John Chesebrough for about 20 years, starting on a 22-foot NorthStar on Cayuga Lake, to keep the kids out of trouble on weekends. (It worked!). She is an artist, and often does paintings of sailboats. Until recently, they spent winters on their Cheoy Lee in Florida. Among their adventures were trips to the Dry Tortugas and Cuba (and back). Five boats later, they now keep their 30-foot Hunter, Plein Air, in Watkins Glen Village Marina on Seneca Lake.

Andrew grew up in a home sandwiched between the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean in Boca Raton, Florida. At the age of 6, his father took him sailing on a sunfish on the ocean and powerboating in an 18-foot Donzi on the Intracoastal. From there, Andrew enjoyed boating, boat maintenance, and working on boats. He has been a mate on a charter sportsfishing boat.

Andrew has owned many small sailboats: US1, Laser, Catalina 14.2, Catalina 22, Oday 272, Telstar 28 as well as several powerboats. He currently owns a Rinker 270EC and a Bayliner E16. Andrew currently boats on the Finger Lakes in upstate New York.
