Rowan Hale is a water sports travel and logistics writer who turned years of backpacking into practical guides for paddlers, boaters, and open water travelers. Rowan covers where to sail, dive, and snorkel, from the Caribbean to the Mediterranean, alongside the less glamorous work of getting a boat there and back: roof racks, trailers, towing rules, and storage.
