SET SAIL WITH ME WELCOME TO THE BLOG

In 2016, We decided it was time to sail; the kind of sailing where we were fully committed, where cruising  became our life. We had run out of patience for the grind and retired.  For many years we had bareboat cruised...basically renting boats along the way.  We took a year; made it down to the West Indies and back. But we have always wanted our own boat; to sail where charter boats are not allowed to go----to truly test our mettle. 

Our dream became a reality in 2023.  To see how, scroll to  our little docudrama:  "Diamond in the Rough".  You will learn how the Jewel of the Sea came to be. 

 In the  posts that follow, we will take you along for the journey as we challenge ourselves and the Jewel.    We welcome you to follow us by simply clicking "follow" on the right side.

Off we go, into the Wild Blue Yonder.  Join us for the ride.
