On the water at last

At last, time to slow down. Time to adjust to life on a boat. Out of the marina and over to Great Harbor at Peter Island,

Repairs, upgrades and inspections

I would love to say that it is wonderful to be back on the boat, and perhaps I will in a few days,but for now

6 bags, 2 people...

Arriving at customs in the BVI, The customs man looked at us, looked at all our luggage and  said "6 bags, 2 people.  Why?"
"Because we are moving on to our boat"
"What do you have in the bags?"
"Mostly household goods"
"May I see?"
"Sure"
The first bag was opened. Right on top was a small rug and some watercolors paints.
The second bag was opened.
A couple of bright yellow dive fins.
"Any guns or firearms?"
"No sir, we had to get through TSA"
He just nodded and passed us through.

On to the next phase.

Goodbye to a furry friend

There are so many decisions to be made when choosing to sell everything and move onto a boat. One very big decision was what to do with our 8 year old cat, Ziggy.

Many people have pets on their boats, even people who spend time traveling and sailing across

The crew page is finally updated.

Stuff

Downsizing to get on a boat. Exciting, frustrating, exhilarating, depressing, and that is just the first five minutes of thinking about it.

 It is amazing how much crap you can accumulate. Our society is so geared to consumerism.
