Taking advantage of our rest day during Deep Week, Adam Stern comes out to the boat for some spearfishing! He has never speared in the Bahamas and it was fun to see how he would do using a polespear (Headhunter Nomad) with sharks around!

This part of my sail was a bit intense and kept me on my toes! Solo-sailing is never easy, and as the weather deteriorates, it becomes a bit tougher. However, this ended up being a pretty memorable sail as I made my way back to Florida.

A while back I fixed a superficial issue, but it created a hazard on my boat. THIS is the solution!! If you have ever considered putting fake teak decks down, I can highly recommend using DekIt! This process was amazing and the deck itself is easily the be...

Some days can be a little ordinary on a boat, but things are also always changing. This week, not much seemed to go on, but it was still a busy week full of a variety of tasks and visiting with old and new friends.
