I can not believe that it is already mid June! We have 2 more months of charters in the Bahamas and then we are headed back to New England for hurricane season!

It is now mid April, and it has been almost 4 months since my last blog post. The last time I wrote a blog, we had just bought our cute coastal cottage in Northport, Maine and at the same time, we had decided to start a new adventure on board an 83 foot catamaran named Read More

I MARRIED THIS MAN SO Read More

Bahamas!

We are now in the Bahamas!  We left St. Thomas last week on April 14th around 2:00pm.  We finished three charters back to back aboard Split Second on April 13th, and immediately picked up two of our best friends Brynne and Cooper and readied ourselves for the long delivery ahead.  We went out to dinner Read More
