It is hard to believe that it’s been two years since we sold our house in Indiana and started this journey. We are now off the boat and have moved into a rental home in Asheville, North Carolina. We have had many transitions over the last few months so I thought it would be fun to…
When we sailed to Eleuthera, we thought we’d only be here for a few days before heading on to the Exumas. But we’ve stayed a lot longer than a few days. The more time we spend in Eleuthera, the more we fall in love with it. Here’s a recap of our last week and why…
After we left Bimini, we sailed with our friends from S/V Rhiannon for three consecutive days but were able to sleep at night at anchor. The first day we sailed for eleven hours straight east across the Bahama Banks where it is only 15 feet deep.We trolled even though we knew in 15 feet of water we…
Bimini consists of three islands and is the closest Bahamian island chain to the US. Most cruisers come to Bimini to check in through customs and immigration, grab some diesel, spend the night at a marina for a night or two and be on their way to the farther out islands in the Bahamas. But our…
This post is written by Camden. Tuesday we left Miami at 5am. But I was still asleep. When the sun started rising, I jumped out of my bed, and I asked my dad if we could start trolling for fish. He said yes so I got out my stinky ballyhoo for bait.I could not stop smiling because I was fishing and I was…
Last Wednesday our really good friend, Zach Frank, flew from Atlanta to Florida and boarded Adagio to sail with us down the coast to Miami. Marc met Zach in middle school and they were best friends for two years. Then Zach moved to Cincinnati and Marc and Zach lost touch. But Marc and Zach ran…
Adagio splashed 7 days ago and she is happy to be back in the water and so are we. Here she was on the hard last week and being transported back to the water. We have been busy this last week unpacking, provisioning, and meeting other boaters. Here’s Camden on the boat with our boxes from…
We have been a little on the go lately. We flew back to Florida from Costa Rica five days ago, then Camden and I turned around and flew out the following day to Charlotte, and now we are back here in Florida visiting with Marc’s dad. Really good news: Marc’s excellent duct taping skills allowed our cardboard boxes…
We hauled out the boat and we are hauling out of the country again. The last two weeks have been relaxing at times and busy at times. As soon as we landed in the US in Fort Pierce, Florida, we headed across the Sunshine State to St. Pete Beach to visit with Marc’s parents at their condo. …
We are back! The Konesco Crew arrived in Fort Pierce, Florida last Friday, June 20. Marc estimated we would arrive at 6:30 am and we sailed in at 7 am. Impressively close calculations! But let me take a few steps back to a week and a half ago… On Friday, June 13 we dropped Marc’s cousin Kelsey…
