THE CALMEST SAIL ACROSS THE GULF STREAM. EVER.

Our Gulf Stream Crossing from Port Everglades, FL (Ft. Lauderdale) to Great Harbor Cay, Bahamas was an absolute dream crossing. We crossed at the start of a weak cold front with light SW winds and left Port Everglades at daybreak. We only had to motor-sail for a couple hours then the wind picked up just enough to sail the rest of the way. As we passed Great Isaac Light and got out of the stream the wind picked up a bit and we were cruising along at 10 knots all the way to Great Harbor Cay. This was by far the best Gulf Stream Crossing we have ever had. Super calm conditions and enough wind to sail our catamaran almost the whole way!

THE CALMEST SAIL ACROSS THE GULF STREAM. EVER. Locations
Tula's Endless Summer
Billy, Sierra, and Jetty here and we live on a BOAT! We have sailed up and down the east coast, all of the Bahamas and through the Caribbean. We started this boat life on a small monohull sailboat (Tula) and then moved onto an old trawler (Neverland). We now live on a sailing catamaran named Adrenaline. In order to be able to live this life, we buy boats that need A LOT of boat work and fix them up ourselves. We make these videos so you can experience the work and FUN with us. We hope to inspire, educate, and entertain you along the way. Follow along to see where we go next!
