Sailing Meraviglia

We sail to experience the wonderment over the horizon.

Hot times in Grenada with a side of #$%@!

We are successfully back in the water and at anchor – hurray! We had initially estimated that Meraviglia would be out of the water for two full weeks with a splash date to go back in on 10/3. Happily, Bob… Continue Reading →

Chapter 125: Karma Shift!

If you’ve actually been reading these blog posts, you have a pretty good feel for how things have gone for Kim and I since we moved aboard: not that great. There is no denying we’ve had some successes and have… Continue Reading →

Chapter 24: Back in the good ol’ U.S. of A.

We just returned from a wonderful week in the US with family celebrating my niece’s wedding 💗!!! It was our first trip back to the US in six months and definitely was a bit of a culture shock! Most recently,… Continue Reading →

Chapter 123: I Have Screws Loose

Chapter 120: Bequia and Whaling!!

We arrived in Bequia on Friday, 8/9 after a blessedly uneventful overnight passage from Martinique.  After spending 5 weeks in Martinique and enjoying it,  I was a bit sad to be leaving but excited to continue towards Grenada. Prior to… Continue Reading →

Chapter 119: I Smell Smoke

Not gonna lie. It’s been hard to write this post. The event actually happened a few weeks ago but it freaked us out so badly we needed time to process. The good news? I think we’re in a good place… Continue Reading →

Chapter 118: Visitors!!

Kim and I left Brunswick, Georgia in mid-February. Since then, we’ve been largely alone. Although we’ve discovered we can be together 24/7, we also have discovered that being on our own does get lonely. So this past week was pretty… Continue Reading →

Chapter 117: Saint-Pierre and another volcano!

After the excitement of being in the midst of the Tour de Yoles, we decided to head for something a bit quieter.  When we initially sailed to Martinique we went first to the southernmost port of Le Marin as we… Continue Reading →
