🎶Come sail away with me🎶
In 2017, when Justin and I rented out the house, loaded all of our remaining possessions into an RV and traveled to Texas to buy a boat, we had no idea what the next few years would hold. We made a plan to take 2 years getting the boat and ourselves ready. For reasons,…
Like all good things, they must at some point, come to an end. After almost 90 days in The Bahamas, we were looking for a weather window to head back to the states. While I was checking the extended forecasts for the Abacos, favorite port of calls all along the east coast, and the…
We’ve chosen this nomadic lifestyle which has definitely come with its challenges. Not only does it mean that we don’t currently have a home port but we also don’t have a consistent support system around us. One of the most difficult things that we experienced when we left Colorado, and then Texas, was saying…
Our trip here in the Abacos hits a bit differently this time around. We’re taking things a bit slower, hanging out with friends a bit longer, and just not trying to rush through this experience. We’ve been not trying to push to see all the places and do all the things, like we did…
We are so excited to make it back to The Bahamas. We are relearning how to embrace "island time" again, both in our expectations for how quickly things move here and in not putting pressure on ourselves to be "busy" all the time. We're just trying to soak up every minute.
We’ve had a wonderful holiday season this year. We were on the go throughout the month of December which meant that we got to take part of the sights and festivities in multiple cities. We started December while in Savannah. It’s one of our favorite places to visit and it’s even more impressive during…
Since our first trip to Savannah in June of 2023, we’ve been trying to get back. We fell in love with its rich history, distinctive architecture and numerous squares/parks. We decided to pass by Charleston, another of our favorite stops, to see Savannah all decked out for the holidays. We had a chilly and…
Now that we have lived on the boat with Starlink for so long, one major drawback has been its power usage. Because we like to have great internet connection at all times, we tend to leave Starlink running 24-7 unless we are at anchor for an extended period. Just having the device powered on…
We enjoyed our time in Southport, NC but we were there for a bit longer than we would have liked and through a good weather window to go offshore to Charleston, SC. Part of our longer stay was due to needing some time to recoup from our offshore passage but also to have a…
After 2 separate trips to Baltimore, for both fun and boat projects, we were happy-sad to be heading south again. This winter, we’re again heading back down the east coast and to the Bahamas. Though we’re still putting together our Bahamas route, we know that we want to try and maximize our time in…
