Let the captivating adventures of this intrepid crew inspire your next voyage.Dominica is one of the most beautiful islands in the Caribbean. We are so happy we sailed our Leopard 45 catamaran there! It's unspoiled, for now. So visit while you can. In this episode, we continue our exploration of this amazing island. We meet up with Omar, our tour guide turned dear friend. He took us to Syndicate Falls, another win for Jeff.
We loved visiting his friends' farm, where these two men, one 84 and the other 92 years old, climbed jelly coconut trees to give us a taste of their favorite food, and showed us around their pineapple plantation.
On our way to the black sand beach, we picked up Frederick, whose "right name is Peter", but some people call him Frederick. He told us his last name three time, but I couldn't understand it. He was just the sweetest man.
Lastly, we visited the black sand beach, where the sand is ... well, black. It's also magnetic so it shines silver. Just beautiful!

Sailing Wind Therapy
We’re Jeff and Adrienne. We both grew up sailing, but took 20 years off while married to our exes. When we got together in 2007, we remembered how much we loved sailing. So, we took a week-long sailing class in 2013, bought a Leopard 48 sailing cat, and never looked back (except for when Hurricane Irma destroyed her but we immediately purchased a new Leopard 45). In Spring 2021, our plan is to leave our marina in St. Petersburg, FL, and begin making our way to the Bahamas, then to New England, and then south, arriving in Grenada sometime in June 2022. Maybe, in May 2023, we’ll make our way across the Atlantic Ocean and spend some time in the Mediterranean. And then go around the world. We’ll figure it out. And hopefully, you’ll join us along the way. Thanks for watching our videos. We hope you like them.
