We sit down to share our story, from our own beginnings and backgrounds to our full boat buying experience, from finding out about liveaboards to buying Turtle.
Just as we get to our destination and try to moor, our engine dies and leaves us next to two anchored sailboats and shore to fend for ourselves.
As more and more storms seem to roll through the New England area, we make a decision to start our journey south.
As hurricane Ida finally lets up, we look around to see the wreckage the surprise storm caused all around Newport.
Hurricane Henri headed straight for Rhode island. We spent the day before prepping for the storm and hung on the wild ride that was Henri.
As we settle into cruiser life, the way we explore towns and new places has changed a bit.
As our sailing days go by, we hope to have developed a small sailor's instinct. Not quite fine tuned as our saltier comrades, but still, a small, budding knot..

It felt like forever ago that we left to go get our own sailboat, thinking we'd be bringing her back in a month, two tops.
When we learned to sail on Husdon River in NYC during COVID, we missed out on all the ramp up most people do before buying their own 40 foot boat.

With our propshaft removed, we started our waiting game on the hard. Unfortunately, a day after our propshaft was removed, our batteries decided to die on us.
We lost all control of our boat and nearly crashed into the other boats in the marina. It all ended without any injuries but it did mean another haul out.
Fired up after our mast went up, we quickly got to work putting our sails up and exploring the nooks and crannies of Annapolis.
The day our sea trial was over and we decided to buy Turtle was the day the mast got taken down for needed repairs and all new standing rigging that requested.
