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.
An early morning start as many boaters were leaving West End today. We helped several boats go, headed to the beach, Jason got his sunrise photo, then time to cast off our lines. We had a pretty short day with only 27 miles to go from West End to Lucaya (Freeport area on Grand Bahama… Continue reading On To Lucaya
Ladies, gents, small people, furry beings...we finally did it. The weather window looked worth it, and we went. It wasn't an easy decision. It was a decision wrought with sleeplessness, unhappy tummies, scrambling around for food, necessary boat items (because boat means break out another thousand....but not that bad), and simple stress. We've been further… Continue reading Step 2: Cross over…
An early morning start hoping to get to Little Lake Worth by lunchtime. We only had 24 miles to go. But the tides, winds, and bridges were all aganst us. The Jupiter inlet skunked us. We could only make 3ish knots going through the 707 Bridge. And alas, that put us 5 minutes late for… Continue reading West Palm and Little Lake Worth

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

We started our last leg of the first journey early this morning in truly ideal conditions. The Gulf looked like glass. And hey, we continued to miss the… Continue reading Hello Clearwater!
Sunrise in Eastport looking over to New Brunswick Just kidding. We mostly headed west today. 😁 But the day started out with a beautiful sunrise watched from our hotel. The toes got cold, but the hearts were warm. Then we began the journey west to Millbridge. The one and a half hour journey was expanded… Continue reading Heading South
The Random Number Generator (RNG) forecast indicated that we were going to have some light winds starting out of the east and then switching more southerly as the day wore on. Our hope was to pull out the asymmetrical spinnaker to become the (well, we are already, but...) prettiest girl on the water. 😁 Up… Continue reading Where’s the Wind?
