Follow me, Miss B, our two cats (Dora and Boog, aka. The Misfit Crew) on our crazy epic adventures aboard the SV Haven, a 38' Kadey-Krogen.
We are so grateful for a peaceful night and a perfect end. Today has been a struggle. We have been so fortunate with weather and tide and situation, that we were due. Southern Florida in the ICW on the weekends give our friend Dave some PTSD memories (not joking). Today with winds 15 to 25… Continue reading Peck Lake
An early morning off the free dock in Historic Cocoa after a great day with John, Sue, Gary, and Ann Marie. It was another long slog through the ICW, which is never fun on weekends in Florida. But we had a couple great surprises. First, as we were going under the bridge in Melbourne out… Continue reading And on to Vero
The original plan was to head to Titusville today, an easy 40 mile day. We left the dock promptly at 7:30, apparently 1 minute behind Dance Me. Well, Dance Me was making some time and would make Titusville by 2 p.m. So they were going to push on to Cocoa. We looked and got nervous… Continue reading And on to Cocoa
Well, the Graveyard of Ships along the Florida ICW didn't disappoint today. After a cold and not as early start, we continued down the ICW with little wind. We may have been able to raise a sail for 5ish minutes....but....not worth it. Jason heard a bridge hailing from a vessel called Wind Dragon. Sure enough,… Continue reading Adventures to Daytona
We knew it would be a long slog, but anchor was up at 6:45, and away we went. With little to no wind forecast it was once again an ICW day. But 61 miles later, we caught a ball in St. Augustine and met up with Saucy Pause (Gary and Ann) and Dance Me (John… Continue reading On to St. Augustine
Another day in Fernandina as we sit out some winds. Before Jason and Barbara headed to shore, we realized that we hadn't been bobbing around for a while. Aahhh....back on the hook. Jason noticed a boat had started to drag anchor. And while they would likely recatch during low tide, we didn't want them to… Continue reading Animals and Anchors
Many projects were completed while we stayed in Brunswick. The Cap'n replaced the old batteries with new lithium batteries, we have a cool, new solar setup with some over the davits and some on our new hard top over the cockpit. We have a new dinghy motor and a water maker to give us a… Continue reading The 2024 Season Has Begun
Well....
Sometimes it is rough being a cat when ahurricane is expected. The hoomans know what to do, and we won't need as much air conditioning. But do I still get tuna?
Good news! As far as we know there has been no British invasion (with the exception of The Beatles playing at Patsy's in Washburn). And no, we aren't dyslexic. We just hiked around Meyers Beach (two by land) and kayaked in a single tandem kayak around the area. The weather looked to be perfect for… Continue reading Two if by land, one if by sea
