Dominica, Roseau and Portsmouth Mar 6-10
3-6I drove off the anchor and Cale helped the kids run the anchor. We were able to put the sails up almost right away. We were going really good and then when we got behind the volcano the wind just completely died for about 30 minutes and we motored. We were able to get going…

Martinique February 24th to March 6th
We thought Martinique would be a quick stop, but we were wrong. We loved it! I have dreamed of going to France since middle school when we had a foreign exchange student from France. It felt like we were in France. A small amount of people speak a little English, but for the most part…

St Lucia February 20-24th
2-20 We left from Bequai for St. Lucia at about 5:30pm. We planned for it to be 12-15 hours. We did not stop at St. Vincent because its not a safe place right now. It was smooth at first but the channel between Bequai and St. Vincent got really wild, really quick all just as…

Bequia February 13-20th
2-13 Before leaving Canouan Iian dove and found the Alma’s boat anchor. I was happy for them. We headed out around 10. We had our biggest seas yet. I think around 7 or 8 feet. Winds weren’t bad at about 18-24 knots. We were cruising pretty good when all of the sudden there was a…

Mayreau (Twassante Bay), Canouan February 9-12th (SVG)
2-9 We moored at Twassante Bay (also sometimes referred to as Troisse Anse). The more popular one called Salt Whistle was packed with people. Our mooring had a line stuck in it that someone had cut off so it took us about 30 minutes to get it sorted out with the help of Hold Fast…

Tobago Cays (SVG) 2-7 and 2-8
2-7 It was a much calmer night. We got up and going pretty early. Our plan for some time has been to get to the Tobago Cays. Sadly, the weather just hasn’t been cooperating. We finally got a couple days that look like manageable wind so we wanted to get an earlier start so we…

Union Island SVG (St. Vincent and the Grenadines) 2-1 to 2-6
2-1 After checking out of Grenada the previous day, we left Sandy Island for Clifton, St. Vincent around noon, after the kids and I did some boat cleaning and Cale changed the oil in one of the engines. It was a short ride to Clifton. We first tried to anchor but started dragging and ended…

Molineire Point to Sandy Island, Carriacou Grenada 1-28 to 1-31
1-28 We were anxious to get going we got a pretty early start but it was not smooth sailing. Waves were coming from the west and meeting up with the normal waves that come from the north east. We got tossed all over for 2.5 hours. We got to Sandy Island, a small bit of…

Exploring Grenada with the Grandparents Port Louis Marina, Le Phare Bleu, Moliniere Point, and Ronde
1-20-23 to 1-27-23 Cale and I ran some errands. We got a few random things. The kids swam and met some new friends from Norway. They came over and hung out in the boat and played games. I finally was able to sell our mixer. Had to wait for a local named Denver to come…

Grenada First Week of Repairs and Scuba Cert.
We left January 10th. The last couple days before we left we had Boys To Men Its So Hard to Say Goodbye playing as the sound track of our lives. It’s blowing my mind that for so long we could be planning and prepping for this trip and then now that the time is here…
