Claudia has been active in Fleet 42 since 1982, serving on the Board the majority of that time in various officer capacities. She has a Prindle 16. For 29 years, she has seen the Fleet introduce new sailors to the joy and thrill of sailing while experiencing the camaraderie of like-minded sailors.”

Jim has been with the fleet since 1999. He has a Prindle 18-2 but enjoyed many years racing on a Prindle 19 with Terry Marshall. The fleet camaraderie is what keep things fun.
Staff Commodore – Terry Marshall
Terry started sailing with fleet 42 in 2000 on a Laser monohull. Terry switched to a Prindle 19MX a few years later and has served as photographer, scoring and Commodore for 2 years. One of the things Terry likes best is to watch and help sailors learn new sailing skills. The folks in Fleet 42 have been a big part my activities.

I enjoy sailing at Lake Pleasant, Roosevelt Lake, and whenever possible, the big (salty) pond. I bought my first catamaran, a Hobie 16, in 1983 in Wilmington, North Carolina. I sailed that boat until the late 80’s when I sold it here in Phoenix. I didn’t sail again until the mid 2000’s when I bought a yellow SolCat 18 for $50 and fixed her up. From there, on to a Nacra 5.7 with Spin. I currently own an Inter 20, and a Nacra 5.2. And that yellow SolCat 18 has found her way back to my driveway.

I started sailing at the age of 16 when I purchased my first Hobie 16 and joined Fleet 42 when I was 18. After 4 years on that boat I moved up to a Prindle 18. I became inactive in the fleet in about 1995 and started a family. I came back to the fleet three years ago and just this last year have moved up to a F18HT catamaran.
