Install of Our New Composting Head
I know many of you have been very curious about our swap from a manual to a composting head, and I wanted to share with you the install process in detail. The ventilation system turned out to be the trickiest part (mainly because we wanted to utilize old, ...
Our Journey
Six years now Phillip and I have been sailing and sharing here at HaveWind, and—now, especially with our first Atlantic Circle complete!—we’re often asked where all we have traveled by sailboat. Well, this should explain it! A six-year HaveWind a...
Shipyard Vid 3: New Coupling & Rot Repair
Calling all boat project fanatics, this one’s for you! Boy, did we have a time trying to get our engine aligned. While Phillip and I knew we had some kind of issue going on with our prop shaft, the key that fits in the shaft (which was always coming out ...
Shipyard Vid 2: Removing the Quadrant & Replacing the Cables
Maybe they should change that B.O.A.T. saying to “bonded or about to.” The hardest part of our rudder drop was getting the stinking quadrant off! Heat, impact, cheater bars, nothing would work. So, the creative guys at www.perdidosailor.com had to c...
Shipyard Vid 1: Reinforcing the Rudder Post
Hey hey crew! As I write from La Rochelle, I have a confession to make. I’ve been saving a treat for you! I was holding this for when I knew we would likely be shoving offshore, so you all would have a fun video to watch as we struck out tomorrow into ...
Tour La Rochelle
Hello HaveWind followers! Quick fun video for you here showcasing the stunning port we are staying at now waiting for the Lagoon 42 we will be delivering across the Atlantic to be completed. Not a bad place to wait, I will tell you. Stunning views, ama...
2018 Atlantic-Crossing Announcement
Ahoy crew! We’ve been saving this fun announcement for you. Many followers have asked our cruising plans this winter, and it’s likely not at all what you would have guessed. We’re going to complete our first Atlantic Circle! I mean ... life is ve...
BV21: To Harbour Island via Devil’s Backbone
High times at Harbour Island High! Ahoy YouTubers! While Phillip and I have hauled the boat out and are preparing for this monster named Micheal to bear down on the Florida coast, I thought you all could use a fun video I put out a couple of weeks back...
BV20: Overnight Sail to Spanish Wells
Life is swell in Spanish Wells! Or breathtakingly beautiful at least. Phillip and I were happily shocked to find our favorite beach from our entire Bahamas trip tucked away on the north shore of what we thought was going to be an industrial little fishin...
BV18: Flying the Chute South to Little Harbour
If there is one thing the steady north winds in the Bahamas are good for, it’s flying the chute, headed south to Little Harbour! Ahoy followers! In Bahamas vlog time, we are just wrapping our stay at beautiful Hope Town, Bahamas (where we got lucky eno...
BV17: Marsh Harbour to Hopetown
Enough with this maintenance in Marsh Harbour! It’s time to get sailing and set our hopes on Hopetown. This was one of our favorite stops in the Abacos. Many cruisers live here full-time on a ball in the harbor which gives the place a very welcoming, ...
BV 15: Maintenance in Marsh Harbour
Have any of you ever wondered this? “How do they change their oil when they’re sailing around the world?” I’ll be honest, when we were first boat-shopping, I wasn’t even entirely aware the boat had an engine, much less one that had oil that nee...
BV13: 3 Kinds of Wind – Sailing, Kiting & Silking at Treasure Cay
What’s that old saying? There are only three types of wind: too much, too little, or in the wrong direction. While that is fairly true, thankfully, for us, no matter what speed or direction, we can usually bust out one of our many “wind toys” and d...
BV 13: Great Kiting at Great Guana Cay
Kiting in winds of 25 plus! Dancing with party-people all 25 and under! Eddie the nipping cat at Nippers. Bucketlusters, kite-surfers, Vladimir Platypus (my winter, wet-suit alter-kite ego) and “Bahamas Boys” looking for some cheebah? Or bitcoin...

BV11: Fly Like an Eagle at Manjack Cay
Like wet silk perhaps? Or running your fingers along the top of a pan of jello? No, it’s softer than that. I’m trying to think of how to describe it. The silky smooth belly of a stingray. While I’m not sure any words can quite capture it, I’m ...
BV9: Diving a Sunken Airplane at Spanish Cay
“I’ll bet seeing that from the air while making a landing on the runway wouldn’t be a very comforting sight,” Phillip mused as we motored our way over to it. The dock master at Spanish Cay had given us some very good advice insisting we dive the s...
BV8: Explorkeling Under the Abaco Sea at Hog Cay
“Time to go explorkeling!” shouts Scuba Annie! Yes, Phillip loves cruising with me. This was our first stop after we wrapped our “holiday on the hook” at Pensacola Cay. I could write about what we found at Hog Cay but this footage encompasses a ...
BV7: Christmas Kiting at Pensacola Cay
I mean, with the name “Pensacola,” we had to at least stop and see. And then we decided December 25th it shall be! Merry Christmas in blog time followers! I hope you all are enjoying our Bahamas Voyage vicariously. Fun video for you here and blog p...
BV6: Great Sale Cay “Like Motoring Across a Swimming Pool”
Ironically, it wasn’t a great “sail” at all to Great Sale Cay, but it was one of the most memorable trips Phillip and I have made on our boat. Visually, the most striking, for sure. As Phillip put it: “It was like motoring across a swimming pool....
BV5: West End to Mangrove Cay & Our First Bahamas Dunk!
“First you start wit da coconut rum ... “ Those were our first words from our first Bahamian bartender and boy were they true. Every drink in the Bahamas starts “wit da coconut rum!” Fun video for you all here from our cruise across Little Bahama...
Crossing the Gulf Stream to the Bahamas
“Never cross with a north wind!” Can you hear it? Pam Wall’s little energetic voice? She repeated this warning many times when we first saw, heard and met her at the Miami Boat Show back in February, 2015. I had no idea that amazing little enthus...
BV3: A New Breed of Geckos in the Keys!
Hey Hey HaveWind followers. Bahamas Voyage Chapter 3 coming at you! Short video for you here from our surprise visit with the amazing Geckos (old and new) after we made it across the Gulf to Key West on our way to the Bahamas back in December! It was su...
