After my topping lift snapped last summer, this was a big project I had to start thinking about. It's not an easy task to add a new line through a mast and installing new running rigging was one of the best ways to prevent this from happening again. It too...

As the days pass, it is quite nice to have some uneventful 'ordinary' days. Granted, these days are never truly ordinary and there is always something going on. However, being able to 'just be' in the moment, taking care of routine tasks, and going as I pl...
It's not every day that this many cruisers get together to have a good time. There is always something to fix and somewhere to go, which made this week extra special. Join the fun and watch as we attempt to make a circle of boats... Also, a huge thank you ...

It is the second and last of these charters. The places we visited are by far some of my favorite in the Bahamas and I loved being able to share them. After years and years of longing ...
It has been an amazing ride... but I have to part ways with something. It has become too much to manage alone. That being said, I am putting a lot of trust in YOU (:

Some weeks just have it all. This was one of them; a perfect ending to a month in Bimini. It's a lot of what I have been doing all month, but this week it's all in one video, along with some of the people who made my time here extra special.
Give a littl...
After finishing chartering, I wanted to 'go with the wind' and explore. Given the direction of the wind, my options were limited, but I decided to go off the beaten path. This is only the first half of my week, but it was one of the best weeks of my life a...

IF you have a boat, WATCH THIS!!!! A lot of sailors learn as we go and as things break... this is just one thing I was hoping wouldn't be too much of an issue. My shaft seal started leaking... and the bilge pumps stopped working. BUT after it was managed, ...
Some weeks it feels like every single thing that can go wrong does. We, as sailors, will anxiously wait for a part, thinking it will solve all of our problems. It's far from the truth, but it definitely makes us feel better. I attempt to replace the shaft ...
The day I have been looking forward to is finally here! My family rafts up with me and we begin a beautiful 3 weeks together. Having them around while I got the boat up and running was exactly what I needed. Little note… please don't take your time with ...
SuThis is week 2 of my family and I buddy boating through the Bahamas! It's really special for me to spend this time with them, as it has become harder to see them living on the boat. Quality time with people close to me is something I highly value and I h...

The boat work is DONE!! (well.. the major stuff at the moment). I am finally free to [literally] sail where the wind blows me. My first few stops are some of my favorites and I hope you enjoy the change of pace with me.

It's always hard to leave places and things you love. This week it's time for me to continue moving south and I got to spend so many beautiful days out on the water simply sailing. I am still stopping to see friends and while doing so, I had a few marine l...

If you want to SEE the sail... head to the last video (ep 80) (; Sailing is rejuvenating, yet it can take a lot out of you. I am taking it easy for a few days after the sail but it is time for my honest opinion of how my first long offshore solo sail RE...
I made it to Puerto Rico! But it's not my final destination... and I still need to travel over 600 nautical miles to make it to Grenada AND it's beginning to be peak hurricane season. The squalls are picking up and the nice weather windows are getting hard...
