Our journey has been amazing so far. Although living on a boat full-time, and cruising, comes with its own set of challenges, we have been able to see places that will remain unvisited by most others. We're so excited to get to share these memories with you, and take you along for the ...
After we a great time at Shroud Cay, we sailed South, further through the Exumas. Our itinerary is constantly changing, largely influenced by the weather forecast. Back home in Canada, it's common to check the weather forecast for cold warnings once a week... here in the Caribbean, it's a multiple time a day activity to ...
The infamous, coral heads of the Exumas, have been on our minds since we left New Providence Island. We carefully charted our route from West Bay in New Providence Island to Highborne Cay -- you can get the coordinates of our route in our last blog post. The Exumas are great when the ...
We had planned to spend quite a bit more time exploring the Berry Islands, but there weren't many anchorages that would have kept us off a lee shore overnight. Exploring the Berry Islands would probably be much more enjoyable during times of the year when the wind is not consistently clocking around every ...
We are so excited to be back out on the ocean, this time for real (see last blog post). After our 22 hour journey from Fort Lauderdale to Chub Cay in the Bahamas, we're starting to remember why we love doing this. Crossing the Gulf Stream was easy. We got confirmed our crossing window ...
We have been anchored in the Bahamas for the last few weeks, enjoying the crystal clear water, and catching up on work that has been piling up. Wait... that was a dream. We are still at Lauderdale Marine Center, a boatyard in Fort Lauderdale. Sure, we'd rather be cruising and recharging. But instead, we're ...
You've likely heard or seen us rave about TimeZero, the Windows application that we use to plan our routes. We have received many questions about TimeZero and how we use it, so we thought that a short video would help. Full disclosure, TimeZero provided us with a free copy, in ...
Our boat ownership experience has been quite adventurous and insightful. Social media often makes owning a boat seem very glamorous and sometimes even easy, and depending on your attitude in life, this can be true. We have worked through two medium-sized boat projects so far, and this is the biggest lesson we learned ...
Last time we checked in, we were about to sail The Whale and were a bit nervous about entering and exiting our very first cut. Thankfully we made it, and the last 2 weeks aboard Seamlessly have been the most-pleasant so far. Day by day, we're getting more and more comfortable navigating, raising ...
