“I don’t know what happened, but we made it”
📍Admiralty Bay, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines to Prince Rupert Bay, Dominica
"My first sail on Dacia, from Bequia to Dominica, engineless. We had just about every situation possible, tacking against the current for seven hours straight, the wind dropping out completely and having to call a pan pan when we almost got washed onto the rocks, a jammed headsail furler, champagne sailing downwind, and dolphins playing at the bow in the moonlight - what a ride!"
Helloooo Grenadines 🇻🇨
📍Grenada to Saint Vincent and the Grenadines
"Rainy sail up but soooo excited to be back in the grenadines!! One of my favorite countries in the eastern Caribbean ❤️ So cool to see how much they’ve repaired since the last time we were here. Been here a few times since Beryl and it seems like they’re much more up and running now!!"
Found ourselves an absolutely gorgeous anchorage!
📍The Bahamas
"Got the place all to ourselves! Dinghied ashore to explore this little private island. Found an interesting salt pond, abandoned tennis courts, and a house with no one home."
Bringing friends to visit the baby dinosaurs
📍The Bahamas to Bitter Guana Cay, The Bahamas
"We cruised south into the wind to let our guests experience the fun of feeding the iguanas at Bitter Guana’s iguana beach. We also hiked the cliffs and found a great staircase down to the water on the east side."
Warderwick Wells Cay to Cambridge Cay
📍The Bahamas to Little Bells Cay, The Bahamas
"Another beautiful short day. Motored because the wind didn’t cooperate, but it’s paradise down here so we can’t complain. Stopped at the aquarium along the way for a good snorkel. Highly recommend! Also Cambridge anchorage by the mooring balls is an excellent anchorage!"
Sailing east to Caribbean
📍The Bahamas to Virgin Islands National Park, USVI, USA
"Bahamas Exuma to Saint John USVI. Beam reaching all the way down. Big waves of 10 feet but every 10 seconds. It was great. Wind 15 to 27kts 30 kts gust"
