After weeks of rough seas, endless repairs, and hard work, we pause to celebrate a special Christmas aboard our catamaran. Feeling the weight of it all, we're eager to shift gears and embrace the boat life we've always dreamed of. But first, we make a quick trip to Andros, where Maddie shares a heartfelt reunion with her best friend.
