Western Flyer Foundation Channel
In 1940, writer John Steinbeck and marine biologist Ed Ricketts chartered the sardine fishing boat the Western Flyer for a legendary six-week expedition to Mexico's Gulf of California. Their account of the journey, as documented in Sea of Cortez (1941) and The Log from the Sea of Cortez (1951), is a classic tale of friendship, adventure, scientific discovery, and philosophy that made the Western Flyer an icon of American literature. After years of work by craftspeople and shipwrights, the Flyer has been restored to its former glory and is ready for a second life of research and education.
