As promised, I have some more photos of our girl for you. During our trip to see Serenity, many photos were taken – mainly to sustain us while we’re here and she’s there. Also, while work was in progress, the good people of KKY took picture…

Maxwell Windlass Part II
We got an e-mail from Tom at Kadey Krogen, seems there was some confusion (likely on my part). Even though Maxwell don’t cover the R & R of the windlass Krogen say on a new boat they would have taken care of this, maybe we just needed to be m…
Meeting Serenity for the First Time – OMG!
The day Tom and I had been counting down the days towards was finally here – January 14, 2011. The alarm went off at 4:15 am for our 7 am flight to West Palm Beach. We literally leaped out of bed and ran to our battle stations to get ready …

MOVING ON – Ok, so before we headed back to Emerald Bay for our little emergency, we had one more visit with the pigs at Staniel Cay. This time we had Big Run with us and we learned since here last, that the pigs really like bread. Unfortunately…

Boo Boo Hill
On our way north back through the Exumas, we stopped once again at Warderick Wells. On our first trip to Warderick Wells, Sharon and I never made it to Boo Boo Hill, which is a special place for…
A busy day!
They are not kidding! Wednesday, we rented a car for the day to run some necessary errands. First order of business: refilling ALL of our propane tanks. We’d refilled two when we were in Turks and Caicos, but one of the tanks seemed to have a defe…
St. Martin, French West Indies!!
Ron and I dropped the mooring and left at 9:30p, for a starry night crossing from our anchorage at Cooper island, BVI. We opted to leave at night so that we would arrive at St. Martin in the morning — I prefer not to arrive at a new port in the dark! …
