Living at anchor in the middle of the ICW while the engine is in pieces can be really interesting and challenging. And this is the start of a long journey in our Yanmar 2GM engine rebuild which is well needed to keep on sailing. Everyday we battle the curr...
What a majestic beast this 12-14ft tiger shark showed us the way to the reef. It is safe to say I would have gotten out of the water pretty fast after seeing this guy with a fish in hand.
If you like what you see don't forget to give us the thumbs up!

What a stressful time on the ICW we had. After just sailing over 346Nm non-stop from the Bahamas without engine this was the dreaded moment. The wind did not cooperate with us as we tried to make our way into New Smyrna Beach and through a lift bridge. Cor...
This squall line really hit us by surprise. It was a wall of rain and almost 80 knot gusts that hit us full force. Unfortunately the holding in Black Sound at Green Turtle Cay wasn't the greatest and boats started dragging. Cory had to start driving on an...
What a crazy journey this 346Nm non-stop sail without engine was. The most stressful part being entering the Ponce inlet at night in big swell without an engine. We really wanted to make it as far North as possible up the Florida coast to fix our Yanmar en...
Time to leave the Bahamas for an intense 3 days sail without engine up the Gulf Stream back to the US. Trying to time a weather window was a challenge in itself but eventually one, although not the best, presented itself. Hurricane season was approaching a...
Spending a lot of time in the water lately. Deeper dives and bigger fish. What an amazing reef they have around Green Turtle cay area. We are just so blessed to be here.
Here is the video of me spearing the hogfish

We get a warning of an intense storm coming our way from the wide open. We quickly release more chain and hope for the best. Waves break over the bow as we ride out 60 knots wind without an engine as a backup.
April has been a crazy month bringing terrifyi...
The Sailing Life in the Abacos is real sweet. We have been anchored at Allans-Pensacola Cays for a few days and Cory's been catching lots of meals. Today's spearfishing catch 2 beautiful hogfish.

Gotta love those days when sailing is easy! You can read, cook up a storm in the galley or simply take a nap. After waking up in a new location we set sail from the Exumas to Nassau and try fishing in the Tongue of the Ocean.
Unfortunately with the Bahamas...
We made it to Hawksbill Cays and Fox Town in the Abacos. The sailing life is sweet as we go on dinghy adventures around cays, mangroves and sand bars. Make sure to subscribe for more videos and don't miss our weekly full lenght episodes every Thursday.
We sailed across Little Bahama Bank in 20-25 knots to then stop at Barracouta Rocks. There we speared a huge spadefish, a lobster and got a conch. And right now we are enjoying a dinghy adventure around Double Breasted Cay in the Northern Abacos. Loving th...
This is it we are on our way to the Abacos. We decided to go through Indian Cut at higher tide to save us a good 4 to 5 hours. The wind has been blowing 20 knots with higher gusts but luckily here the waves are much smaller. Stay tuned for more updates and...
We're doing some boat projects and editing in Freeport. With the strong Northern wind and having to get our 5 Day Covid test this was the perfect place to be. But now free to Roam around the Bahamas we are just waiting on the weather to let us head to the ...
A hard separation follows yet another weekend lockdown in the Bahamas. It's time to say farewell to our good friends Cody and Therese from Sailing Vinyasa. This is the hard part of cruising life.
Trying to fill up on water turns into quite the ordeal as wa...
After 12hrs of motor sailing across a really calm Gulf Stream we made it to the Bahamas. checking in was super easy and we're so excited to be back to the blue water of #bahamas. Now it's time to explore a different part of the Bahamas. #shorts
Yay. We are finally setting sail from West Palm Beach to Grand Bahama Island in Northern Bahamas. We managed to get our paper to leave the US stamped at the airport, received our Covid negative test results, applied to the Bahamas Health Visa, got accepted...
This is the day everything went wrong; our steering broke and getting water was dangerous. Seeing the waves and the way the sailboat was moving I was thinking: "Can we even pull up anchor?" We were on our way back to the US through the Exumas so that we co...
After 260Nm and about 46hrs we sailed all the way from Jacksonville to West Palm Beach. We even saw manta rays on the way South and a rocket. good crossing overall. We got our Covid test done today and are now waiting for the results to cross to the Bahama...
Are we gonna make it to Black Point? We left our home at Black Cay in the Exumas and started making our way up the Exumas to head back to the US. But there wasn't enough wind and with no motor we flew the gennaker. We had to cross at Dotham Cut at the righ...
We are sailing into the night with an almost full moon and barely no wind. Actually we are motoring. Heading to West Palm a more or less 250Nm journey from Jacksonville and we do 5-6Nm per hour.
