Inspirations from two different authors. Thoughts on adventure, and on sinks.

A look at where we are, and what’s next. Plans for the future. A moment for reducing our footprint.

My final few days aboard. Bridges and more bridges, and a boatyard in the fog. A departure as I head back north.

We power through GA, stay at an unexpectedly nice marina, and contend with fog on our way to Floridian warmth.

A journey south, from Hilton Head to Georgia. A bike tour of a plantation, and a walking tour of Savannah.

We reach and explore Charleston. We hide out from another gale, and I run errands. A water pump dies, and is replaced.

A short day steaming from the swamps of Bucksport to the charming town of Georgetown, SC. A stop at a local maritime museum, and a surprising amount of history.

A long, cold trip. Heater woes. A burned finger. Pirate movies.

The gale subsides, we sail for Beaufort, and our crew shrinks by one. A pair of jeans give up the ghost.

A passage from Belhaven to Oriental, NC, some boat projects, and preparations as a gale blows past us.

Another night arrival, with some complicated piloting, but well worth it as we arrive at the superlative Belhaven Marina.

More bridges, as we travel down the ditch, and a tricky night passage across Albemarle Sound towards the Alligator River.

We motorsail through the night down the Chesapeake Bay, hitting some rough conditions and contending with water in the bilge, seasickness, and bitter cold.

Setting sail at dawn on the Chesapeake Bay.

We have an offer accepted on a potential new home and boat, and Kevin sets off on a catamaran delivery to FL.

We rename Wanderer, and add her name name to the hull.
