Thank you WOW airlines for being inexpensive and for allowing us to have a 5 night layover in beautiful Iceland! (WOW was just purchased by Icelandair so prices will probably rise.)  What a great opportunity to get to know the safest country in the world.  I know it's confusing that Greenland is all white with...

I don't really enjoy transcontinental flights but mit was worth it to see my son, Clayton. It took 4 flights to get to Frankfurt from the small and charming airport in Wilmington, NC. I was quite surprised when they pulled me aside in the security line to check my backpack which was full of snacks.... Continue Reading →

Friends from St. Louis, Deb and Chris, joined us at River Dunes in Oriental on Saturday. We headed out the next morning for Cape Lookout, NC where we had 3 days of doing a bunch of nothing...except for Chris, who was very busy fishin' 14 hrs. a day. He is now an ace "caster." The...

On Sunday morning the rendezvous concluded and we untied 8 lines from our boat and our next door neighbors' boats and headed south from Solomons, MD. It's a pleasure washing dishes with this view. It was a gorgeous day on the Chesapeake Bay followed by a gorgeous sunset in the Piankatank River where we anchored.... Continue Reading →

What an action-packed, educational, motivational and fun 5 days we had at the Kadey-Krogen rendezvous. Former, current and wannabe Krogen owners meet annually at Calvert's Marina in Solomons, MD. Every day began at 6:45 a.m. with either yoga or a 4 mile walk and concluded as late a 11:00 p.m. the night of the dance.... Continue Reading →

Some pretty cool things have happened around Unforgettable this past month. Although we haven't traveled we have had a fabulous time in the Solomons/California, MD area. The most important cool thing was actually what didn’t happen and that was Hurricane Florence. We had nary a drop of wind or rain. We will probably experience the... Continue Reading →

Weather is always a major topic among boaters. It determines not only where we go, when we go (or if we go at all) but also things like how many lines and fenders to put out, anchoring techniques and many more details of our lives. Everything about boating is, "weather dependent," as Scott always says.... Continue Reading →

  Unforgettable got all gussied up this past two weeks!  She weighs in at 100,000 lbs. with tanks half full so it takes a huge travel-lift to lift her big bottom out of the water! Prior to being pulled out of the water she had to be inched up to the ground to remove both... Continue Reading →

We puttered across the bay from St. Michaels to Annapolis which I learned is actually a small town, population 40,000.  En route we asked the Lieutenant Commander at the Naval Academy for permission to stay in their anchorage.  Apparently it is quite rare to be granted permission.  I guess it pays to know the right...

  I had some concerns about traveling back down the East River with predicted storms without the stabilizers. We had to take a short detour back to Liberty Landing to fill up with water (400 gal.) and pick up mail and packages. We were down to about 15 gallon of water because it had been... Continue Reading →
