Finished this really tricky #crochet project yesterday after slowly working from “not so sure I want to do this” to “totally obsessed/must finish” manic energy the last 2 days. I loved making it and am obsessed with doing more projects like it.

#sailed onto anchor for the first time yesterday completing our first no-engine passage! We sailed off anchor leaving Governor’s Harbour. Then had enough wind to sail up to the next stop (only 7nm away), and sailed onto anchor. It was a great experience to stretch our #sailing skills, and I’m thrilled with all the sailing experience we’re getting this season in the #bahamas

Sailing up Cat Island in the #Bahamas. It’s just lovely, even the upwind stuff🤯 (mainly because we’re in the leeward side of the island) #sailing #sailboats #sailboatlife
One of those rare days where the wind was in the perfect direction for the entire sail. We started deep downwind with a full Genoa and main, then switched to main + asym spinnaker for broad-beam reaching, & concluded the passage with main+staysail+genoa in close reach. 😍😍😍 #sailing #sailboats #sails

Today was #boatProject day! In which I figure out how to patch our canvas enclosure to extend it's life (and our wallet).

In addition to replacing some tired Velcro, I made some extensions to snap the canvas onto the cockpit. The old snaps didn't reach after the last clear replacement, and the back panels flop all over the place. Flop no more! My extensions work!

When you can see to the bottom in 25' (8m) of water😍

So nice to have new sails and good wind in the "right" direction. #sailboat #sailing #bahamas #cruising
#anchorWatch at 01:30 local time. Sustained 30kn gusting 35kn. Anchor holding. Current is switching to flood, which should be more favorable to keeping the boat inline with the wind. Gonna be cold in the Bahamas soon. Weeee! #sailboat #sailing
Maine, specifically Penobscot Bay, is absolutely gorgeous cruising grounds. Today, we sailed from a mooring in Belfast to an anchorage near Castine at Holbrook Island. Loving #Maine! #sailing #sailboat #Sailboats
In other news, our new poop hose has a vanilla scent 🤣 it's vague but noticable😆 #boatProjects #raritanHose
