Sail the Seawolf

sectioned off 5,000 square feet of warehouse space exclusively for the building of Seawolf. Scott Self was diagnosed with glioblastoma, an aggressive brain cancer, on May 19th, 2020. The Self family will carry forward the legacy he built and the love he shared of sailing on Lake Ray Hubbard. For at least 500 years - sailors have kept 4 hour watches. Shipboard time used double-bubble sand half-hour watch glass. Max time the bell can be struck is 8. At the end of a four-hour watch, eight bells were sounded and the sailor on watch was relieved.
“Eight bells and all's well.”
Tradition in the sailing community is to note the passing of a shipmate with the signaling of eight bells. The sounding of a ship’s bell is a reminder of the special bonds mariners forge among one another. Captain AmyLee Pierce is now operating Seawolf with the same ardent love of the lake. She worked under Captain Scott’s tutelage for several years and enjoyed adventures in the Gulf of Mexico and the Pacific Ocean from Panama to Los Angeles. Captain Scott’s son, Captain Billy Self, will continue the business as the owner of Sail with Scott LLC. We will continue with the name Sail with Scott legacy in his honor.

In addition, Scott has sailed across the Atlantic Ocean twice in a 44 foot sailboat (once heading east, and once heading west!) and twice raced in the Fastnet Race off the coast of England, winning his division each time. In 2014 Scott sailed a 60 sloop from Houston through the Panama Canal and onto Marina Del Rey, CA. He also placed in the top 10 of several sailboat classes at national championships, from the 14-foot Sunfish to 60 footers. Scott Self was the Mayor of Rockwall, a Rockwall City Council member, a Rockwall County Commissioner and a County Treasurer. He ran for Rockwall County Judge in 2005. We (the family) are grateful he lost that race, because he moved on to his next project, the building of Seawolf.
