A strong norther moved through, bringing shifting winds and gusts over 50 knots reported. We repositioned to a protected anchorage, prepared the boat, and rode out the conditions. The boys stood their first anchor watch, with Ben taking the first solo shift.

Coconut Club, Monument hikes, grocery trips, school/art, beach and dingy adventures.

We’re a little behind on posting, so here’s a photo dump to catch you up. Pig Beach, Thunderball Grotto, Chat ’N’ Chill, rays, conch salad, and all the good stuff. More stories coming soon!

A truly magical spot. We packed in a lot during our short, day and a half stop. We hiked up Boo-Boo hill. Explored the sand bars and various beaches. Saw lots of cool creatures. We are excited to stop on our way back north and do some snorkeling and more exploring.

A quick stop at Highbourne Cay for a yummy lunch, nurse shark sightings, foil surfing and enjoying the bathtub like waters.

Ben writes about one of his favorite activities since being in the Bahamas.

Photos from our journey south from Man-O-War to Spanish Wells.

Snorkel adventures, roller skiing Queen’s Highway, opti sailing, yummy dinners, and everything in between. A photo compilation of the second half of our stay in Man-O-War.

Christmas aboard Nanook was spent with friends in the Abacos, with Christmas Eve dinner on the boat, presents Christmas morning, Mass in Man-O-War, and a beach day at Tahiti Beach before sharing dinner together in the harbor.

Our first week in the Bahamas. Our journey from West end to Man-O-War. Time with friends and blue water that has us in total awe!

A look at last preparations to head to the Bahamas.

Theo’s newest post talks all about the ways that boat life is different from land life! Follow along to hopefully earn something new!

What started as a simple travel day turned into one of our most memorable yet. Dockside goodbyes, a bald eagle sighting, dolphins and manatees, and a front-row view of a Falcon 9 launch at anchor.

We made the 120nm run to Cumberland Island on a friend’s recommendation and found a place unlike anywhere else. Feral horses, untouched beaches, and a history that runs deeper than the dunes. Two quiet days here were the perfect reset before continuing south.

A quick stop in Savannah after our thanksgiving feast gave us time to explore the city, visit the National Museum of the Mighty Eighth Air Force, enjoy some amazing food and finally decorate the boat for Christmas. This post is a photo dump from those days.

Ben gives the run down on Thanksgiving in Savannah.

In this post, Adam reflects on our time in Charleston. Where history, conversation, great friends and quiet moments left a lasting mark.

Our first ICW stop in tiny Coinjock came with some famous prime rib, weather delays and some history. Follow Theo on an adventure down the ICW.

Theo gives a first hand account of the first lock and the first twin bascule bridge of the trip. He also clears up some confusion we had on the real purpose of the lock!
