While waiting to be hauled out in St Mary's, we had to anchor in a narrow creek with a 6ft tide. For several days we were just fine in this spot, but we eventually ran into trouble when the wind switched directions at slack tide. We were blown into the sha...

We launch the dinghy to explore the Cathedral Caves of Rock Sound. After that, we're hot & sweaty so we jump off a cliff into the Ocean Hole. Then we're hungry to we head to the boat and cook up a batch of tortillas.

Our sailboat came with a staysail that included a boom. Our preference though, is to keep our foredeck space clear and open so when we headed out to go sailing, we left the boom behind. To make our staysail work "boomless", we rig a temporary sheeting syst...
The place we are sailing to is special because it's where cinnamon buns grow. It's a place called "The Island Farm", located in Palmetto Point, Eleuthera. We sail in, drop anchor, launch the dinghy, and work up our appetites with a long hike that has a swe...
The ladies of our 3 boat "armada" go to The Queen's Bath with a bottle of champagne. From there things get bubbly. Also, we check out the Glass Window Bridge - a beautiful spot where the shallow banks and deep waters of the sound contrast with each other i...
What's your opinion on towing a dinghy behind a sailboat? Is there a definitive answer or does it depend on circumstances? Either way, we nearly paid for towing our dinghy through Current Cut. It was a VERY bumpy ride because we timed the tide wrong and en...
We like coconuts. Coconuts are up in trees. To get them down we built a contraption called a NUT JIGGLER from common items we had onboard. A NUT JIGGLER is nothing more than multiple telescoping boat hooks lashed together to create a super-long pole with a...
One interesting part of traveling by sailboat is how your next destination can often be decided not so much by where you want to go, but where the weather dictates that you go. This was the case when we picked up anchor, pointed the bow West, and sailed de...
We made a bucket toilet for our sailboat out of a 5 gallon bucket, a water container, and a 3d printed funnel. Works great. We use it for number 1s only.
