I Was Fine... Till I Wasn't - Sailing the Caribbean
Welcome back aboard for another Caribbean sailing adventure.
This week our patrons our patrons Greg and Gideon experience their very first offshore sailing passage, on our live aboard catamaran, departing Saint Martin for Saint Barts.
Its a very real introduction to life at sea, complete with rough conditions, motion sickness, buckets, a few regretted life choices but plenty of laughter and song.
If you enjoy honest sailing adventures, liveaboard life, family travel and off shore experiences, subscribe and come aboard for the journey.
