And the #1 BEST Island in the Caribbean is… [🎥17🇦🇬]
Antigua! Yep. It's a bold call but we can claim it. We've been to pretty much every part of the Caribbean, and Antigua and Barbuda take the claim for us. Today we visit Antigua (Barbuda's next week!), and while they could not be more different, that's what...![#BoatLife – Christmas on a boat!

The Thorny Path to Windward: BVIs to Antigua [🎥15🇻🇬-🇦🇬]
Sailing East in the Caribbean has always been called the "Thorny Path" because it's not all that easy to do. Ideally you wait for an unusual break in the highly consistent trade winds, or pray for the angle to shift just enough to the north that you can ee...![Day 9: Sailing Through a Gale & Finally We Arrive!!!

Day 6: Tropical Storm is Headed For Us? [Ep11]
Imagine getting that email in the middle of the ocean! Today's video is a little different as we review our strategy to deal with a potential Tropical Cyclone (aka Hurricane) development headed for our path. We are too far South to turn around, so should w...![DAYS 4 & 5: Dead Calm, Dolphins & A ‘Green-Flash’ Caught on Film! [Ep10]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/kaScQmYWcgs/maxresdefault.webp)

Actually...![Day 2 & 3: Crossing the Gulfstream [Ep9]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/FDZI0B3nQ_s/maxresdefault.webp)

The next day at 8am EST we will release Day 2 & 3. We think releasing them daily helps giv...![BOAT LIFE: The Salty Dawg Rally, Halloween & Sailing into a Storm!
