About me
Erica Georgaklis grew up sailing and racing in New England before moving to the Pacific Northwest. Once there she quickly found a 1938 Ed. Monk sloop, moved aboard and began exploring the Salish Sea. Smitten with boat life and all things cruising, she left work in arboriculture and started working at Hasse and Co. Port Townsend Sails in 2017. Erica now manages Port Townsend Sails under the Shipwright Coop and with the stellar crew at “the loft” works diligently to build the longest lasting, most durable bluewater cruising sails available. Erica and the crew take serious sailors’ reliance on their craftsmanship and their need for self-sufficiency. It is an honor to continue Carol Hasse’s tradition in empowering sailors. While not at the sail loft or sailing Erica enjoys spending time with her partner and young sons, working on their homestead, and further adventuring by land and sea.
