Exploring our beautiful Earth, meeting new people and generally enjoying some wonderful family time. This is a simple log of our adventures as we slowly circumnavigate the world.
It’s been a busy week of work on the boat and a busy week of work up North. Happily, things are finally starting to come together and our list of completed projects is finally longer than the imminent to be completed projects. Thankfully, Jay had some extra support on the boat last week with a …
Despite having completed some awesome activities the past few weeks, I am struggling to write this blog. Perhaps, it’s influenced by the gray sky and frequent rain squalls making their way across the bay leaving me feeling a little cooped up. Everyone that knows me would concur, that I am a restless individual and need …
I am a week late on continuing with the weekly blogging, but to be fair, it was Christmas and we have been quite busy lately. We had a wonderful Christmas on the boat. Admittedly though, as a Canadian, it is hard to feel the Christmas magic when snow doesn’t blanket the landscape, and you aren’t …
This has been another busy week, but also a fantastic one. We decided to make a hard push North to get to Martinique in time to catch up with some friends. Weatherwise, the winds essentially dried up for our passage time so, out came the iron jib, and we lazily motored almost the entire way …
Well, it’s been a busy but productive week so far. First, an update from the last entry; my phone survived it’s surfing session. Got to love the waterproof rating for the Google Pixel!

It’s been another busy week and a half and things are steadily shaping up to our big Atlantic crossing! We had a fantastic passage with the ultimate highlights being stunning sunsets and sunrises. The most remarkable event however was the second day where we were visited by two separate pods of dolphins. In the morning …
Wow, did we ever fall in love with Morocco! After a good night’s rest on arrival to Tangier, we made our way out of the marina to explore the city, Old Town, the waterfront walkway and the beach. James was on cloud nine. His entire objective for this trip was to go to Africa. Mind …
What an eventful week this has been. I will start with a list of the major ones and then will try and describe the events around them. Our lithium install is complete! What a gamechanger this is for us. We have been able to run the dishwasher, the washing machine, the water maker, our bow …
