When we first bought our sailboat, we didn't know anything about boat repair. Now, a few years and dozens of boat projects later, we've acquired quite a bit of experience. With similar projects popping up a second time we don’t feel so clueless anymore!
We've had one minor deck leak ...
We’re back to the boat!! This is our fourth season aboard — but this time, baby Renata is along for the ride!
The boat needs some work before we splash, as usual. In the past, Kirk and I would live in the boatyard, sleeping in the van and working every minute we could. This time around we do things...
I tried to edit a video with a week worth of footage in it. But after getting just three days worth. I had to stop. Enjoy a FULL episode Vlog from my sailing adventures throughout the Bahamas.
On the first day, Maru and I explore many blue holes. But these beautiful geographic wonders can be fatal...
Very excited to share with you the birth of Renata, our baby girl! After leaving the boat in Florida over hurricane season, we spend the summer preparing for the addition to our crew. We finish a room at Kirk’s parents, add a third car seat to Chip the van, and go on the hunt for a piece of earth to...
Huge life changes are on the horizon! We’ve known for a while that our Tartan 37 won’t be our “forever” boat. With a baby on the way, she’s getting a little small; but we’re also ready to start approaching sailing in a whole new way. Knowing this however, doesn’t make the mind shift any easier. We k...
This is it — our very last sail for just the two of us, before we add another crew member! We look back on the three years we’ve spent on our boat, what’s fun and not so fun about monohulls, and what our biggest goal in life is.
Hope you enjoy!

…because then it wouldn’t be special! The weather, wind and waves all came together on our sail from Marco Island up to Ft Myers. Even our erratic (and nearly departed) auto helm, Otto von Cranky, decided to pull some weight! As our cruising journey as a couple comes to a close, days like this are t...
This week we hauled our Lagoon 42, Sabado, out of the water! Join us while we prepare to leave our boat on the hard for a few months while we go visit friends and family. We’ll head back to the boatyard once the weather cools down to finish our upgrades/projects, before setting sail again after hurr...
Our first project of the season was re-doing our navigation station. In true boat project fashion, it took a lot longer than we anticipated and made a huge mess, but we were able to add some new gadgets and fix up the wiring!
Leave a question for us in the comments :)

This gorgeous sail in the blue water of the Atlantic was one for the books, despite Kirk doing lots of fishing and no catching, and Lauren almost losing her breakfast. Join us as we sail fifty miles south against the Gulf Stream along the east coast of Florida.
This was our favorite sailing day of ...
In this episode Maru and I get up to a beautiful sunrise on a calm day. It's starting to feel like great sailboat living throughout the Bahamas!
We weigh anchor and set sail to Green Turtle Cay. The winds were strong and the sailing was beautiful! We got into GTC a full hour ahead of when I pl...
Tough question to answer isn’t it? We get to ponder this while several storm systems hand out lightning bolts and wind gusts aplenty in this episode!
If bad weather is on the horizon, our instinct is to find a safe anchorage and hole up while it blows over. This is usually the prudent option; altho...
What would you do if it seemed like the world was ending? Would panic set in as you began thinking about all the things you didn’t do, the places you didn’t go, or the relationships you didn’t spend enough time nurturing? Or would you carry on living your life as you are, because you’re living with ...
“There’s good news and bad news.” When someone says that, is it ever really good? 😂
On our way south down the east coast of Florida, we stop in Stuart to have a professional rigger from Mack Sails take a look over our standing rigging. We had a bunch of questions:
1) After being hit by lightning t...
This week we sailed from Shroud Cay to Nassau, then from Nassau to Palm Beach, Florida- officially ending our season of sailing in the Bahamas. Along the way we dealt with some insurance issues, a partially sunken adrift yacht, several squalls, and a minor injury... but, we made it back to the USA s...
Time travel with us in this episode to NOW! -- April 2021 -- for a real-time update, and to meet our lil' babe, Renata!
Many folks warned us that being parents is one of the most difficult and rewarding experiences they’ve had in their lives. Because we seem to enjoy doing everything the hard...
We spent this week thoroughly enjoying Hog Cay and Ragged Island! We couldn’t get enough of the warm, clear waters and great people, but it’s time for us to start making our way back North for hurricane season.

Tag along while we island hop our way South! This week we sailed from Long Island to Water Cay, down to Flamingo Cay, then Buena Vista Cay. We ran into some friendly fishermen, found a cave, a couple of shipwrecks, and the remains of a home in paradise. 🏝

This week we FINALLY got out of George Town and sailed to Long Island. It was a bumpy and long, but successful journey! We ran into our friends, the O’Kelly’s, and rented a car to explore the island. We went to Dean’s Blue Hole, the Columbus Monument, and closed out the day with some ice cream. 😍

Here’s a peek into a week of bad weather in George Town, Bahamas. We’re (of course) grateful to be here, but can’t help but get a little stir crazy when we can’t leave- or move- the boat!

The boat is afloat, and we are on our way south! Just because we left the yard though doesn’t mean the boat work is finished. Duh. We still need to tune the rig, bend on the sails and climb the mast to attach the instruments. There’s a bunch of plumbing that needs attention and a manual bilge pump w...
The Raggeds are a chain of islands in the Southern Bahamas known for being mostly uninhabited. Before we head that way, we needed to make sure we were ready to be fully self sufficient! Getting everything done was easy with the facilities at Emerald Bay Marina. Cross your fingers we get a weather wi...
Join us while we explore Stocking Island and George Town with our friend, Eve! We hiked up to the Stocking Island Beacon from Monument Beach, discovered some amazing beaches, shopped around, and enjoyed some cocktails. Once Eve left, we motored over to Emerald Bay Marina to tackle some chores. Check...
We’re makin’ moves. The mast goes up, the engine gets a checkup, as does the rudder assembly. It’s time to get the boat back in the water — after we figure out how to finagle the centerboard back into its trunk.
But that’s not all... Big changes are on the horizon.
Much love,
Lauren & Kirk
