Pit stop in Great Guana Cay + Marsh Harbour

Great Guana Cay After a stressful situation with our windlass we set anchor for one night at Fisher’s Bay in Great Guana Cay. Our stop here was so-so and after a few hours walking around town we quickly figured out that this wasn’t the place for us. It does have a really beautiful beach

Boat work…in Paradise

Happy 2019! 🙂 I once read that owning a boat and full-time cruising means doing a lot of boat work in exotic places…well, it’s 100% true! Half the battle is just “diagnosing” the problem. Then you add limited resources in the islands on top of that and it gets stressful real quick

Green Turtle + Piggyville + Whale Cut

After a relaxing Christmas we tucked into White Sound and picked up a mooring ball from Phil Roberts (#365-4240) for a few nights at $20 a night. While waiting out another storm blowing through with 30-40 knot winds…December has been crazy for weather! While the weather was still nice we got t

Traveling by sailboat is fun and exciting – sometimes exhausting, frustrating, and boring when not prepared with things that will give you the most comfort. Thankfully, we’ve spent enough time on our boat to accumulate a list of tried-and-true items that make our live-aboard lives fun/easy/h

Christmas in Green Turtle Cay

Christmas in the Bahamas was pretty freakin’ great! Hands down the most relaxing Christmas we’ve ever had! Why?  No over priced flights to the east coast, crowded shopping malls, obligatory office Christmas parties or useless gifts this year…It was nice to forget about the stress/

Back in the Bahamas – West End

Were back in the Bahamas! and it feels so good 🙂 We departed Palm Beach, Fl on 12/17/18 at 5pm. We were originally planning to do a day sail on the 18th since we thought the weather conditions for the Gulf Stream would be better but after monitoring the Chris Parker updates (he’s a weather

Santa’s Little Ho Ho

It’s been a while since I shared a cocktail recipe so I think I’m overdue 🙂 I’m (were) a big fan of champagne but haven’t really experimented mixing it with too many things. This recipe seemed festive and a good way to celebrate the holiday season. Honestly, it’s been hard getting in t

Summer lovin’

Summer should get a speeding ticket, seriously! Our summer/hurricane season break was filled with lots of fun adventures! Feeling grateful that we were able to have this time to freely travel the country, stopping along the way to see friends and family. But what we loved most about this summer was
