It was a long 11 hours traveling 85 mi from Bimini to Great Harbour Cay in the Berry Islands. Not surprisingly, it was rougher than forecast and Scott and I took turns feeling kind of yucky...but we didn't throw up! Hooray! It was a relief to dock at Great Harbour Cay Marina which is completely... Continue Reading →

When we went to bed on Saturday night in Key Biscayne there were 24 boats, when we awoke at 6:30 a.m. there were only 12 and when we pulled up the anchor at 7:10 we left 4 behind...the result of a great forecast for crossing the gulf stream.  The perfect weather is when the wind...

We had initially planned a 2 night stay at the New River Downtown Marina in Ft. Lauderdale to have our water maker doubled in capacity and to collect the final donations for the Humane Society Exuma. But upon arrival we noticed the long-range weather forecast wasn't showing a good day for crossing the gulf stream... Continue Reading →

We were getting antsy in Stuart, FL as the boat had been there since Dec. 1.  We both enjoy being on the go yet it was a productive and fun time seeing friends while in Stuart.  We left Sunset Bay Tuesday, Jan. 22 amidst fairly strong winds.  We dropped anchor in Lake Worth which was...

When we purchased "Unforgettable" we did so thinking that we could some how use the boat to help others.  I wasn't sure exactly how that would work but I felt confidant that something would fall into place.  Finally, I feel that we can start to fulfill that dream.  The "others" that we are helping are...

What a long month it has been living on dirt. I would choose living on the water any day over living on dirt but three things I really appreciate about dirt living are...super soft, thick, luxurious toilet paper (on Unforgettable we must use single ply), watching the Today Show, and having the ability to go...

With Steve and Sandy, our mentors, we filled the galley to the brim with food and headed south from Charleston, SC for the final leg of our journey to Stuart, FL. Our first stop was a marina in Beaufort (pronounced būfurt)f or 2 nights. The evening we arrived Scott and I took a nice, lovely... Continue Reading →

We spent 4 days traveling from Wilmington, SC to Charleston, SC, a total of only 165 nautical miles. This was the most leisurely pace that we had ever traveled. Our typical mode has been rush, rush, rush. We finished each day with plenty of time to do yoga together and prepare a nice dinner. Although... Continue Reading →
