OK WE ARE EXCITED – WE ARE MOVING ON! After lots of wind – looks like a go tomorrow – we are heading for Chub Cay and will be anchoring between Chub Cay and Mamma Rhoda Rock. Again it looks like we will be moving in a flotilla for…
Oh no, it’s already Thursday!
Yup, it’s Thursday, April 15th and almost the end of our part of this trip. I’m more determined than ever to squeeze every second out of these next 2 days aboard For Us. This boat was fast becoming my best friend and playmate. Even mo…
"Oh What a Beautiful Morning, Oh What a Beautiful Day……"
Okay, so now I’ve become a seasoned boater (well, almost). My hands don’t shake quite so much when I have “line duty”. Patti had the boat as we backed out of our slip – effortlessly I might add, once Tom and I cast off the lines. Anot…

We biked all over the east end of Provo Wednesday, all the way out to Leeward Going Through and back again. As we couldn’t dive (the winds are still whipping up the waves and reducing visibility) it was something to do and a nice way to see more of the…
On the High Seas – April, 2010
Harborage was a speck in the distance when the excitement began! Fishing boats on their way in from the ocean were fast approaching us, seemingly from all directions. Thank goodness for Captain Patti’s calm demeanor as my hands shook on the…
Marathon at last!
We finally untied from the dock yesterday (actually, it was the first day in several that we could) and got underway across Biscayne Bay. We exited the Biscayne Channel, past Stiltsville (use Google), and entered the Hawk Channel, which lies off shore …
Homeward Bound!
Well, it’s April 13th and our last trip to Stuart was upon us! Off we flew with a one-way ticket, not knowing from which city we would be returning home (VERY adventurous for us Type A folks). We arrived as usual in Stuart on a Friday …
