Hayden Cochran has enjoyed sailing and racing sailboats since 1981, finishing second at the 1986 Buccaneer National Championships in Michigan. He crewed for the next ten years on a J-35, Gazzed Too, participating in buoy races and distance races on Long Island Sound. He and his wife, Radeen, have chartered many times on the Chesapeake and throughout the Caribbean. Starting in 1991, they sailed an Island Packet 27, Cinnamon, from Rock Hall, MD. In 2001, they bought an Island Packet 35, Island Spirit, sailed to New England for 9 summers, and enjoy cruising the ICW from Maine to the Bahamas. Hayden has crewed to Bermuda on numerous races, deliveries and instructional courses. Hayden is an enthusiastic sailor and Island Packet owner. To encourage camaraderie amongst owners, Hayden developed two community websites for sharing information about Island Packet Yachts, www.IPPhotos.com and www.IPYOA.com. He shares the joy of ownership at every opportunity and will assist customers with their yachting dreams as a proud member of the Whiteaker Yacht Sales team.
