So many things are lost when we busy ourselves with “civilized” lives on land; so many great, though simple, pleasures can be regained by spending time on the sea. There, we quickly shrink to humble proportions amidst greater forces: the wind, waves, and tides. On one magical overnight passage in the Caribbean, these elements harmonized, treating us to a memorable ride. Read more here.

Every cruiser knows the importance of flying the host nation’s courtesy flag. But what if you find yourself unprepared? Maybe the wind changed your plans. Maybe you refused to buy the overpriced, undersized flag at the last chandlery. Or maybe you just plain forgot. What then? Not to worry!

Submitted by nslavinski on Sun, 06/21/2015 - 09:30

Is it too much to claim that Port Antonio is one of the most overlooked highlights of the Caribbean? Our plans to call there were poo-pooed by sailors all along the US East Coast who warned us of lurking dangers and rampant crime. But our week-long stay proved the opposite: Port Antonio is a safe, friendly place that welcomes cruisers with open arms. Read more here...

Vanuatu Unplugged

Submitted by nslavinski on Sun, 03/15/2015 - 14:38

Not many people know where to find Vanuatu, the island nation that was recently ravaged by Cyclone Pam. We had the good fortune to sail there and were mesmerized by the place and its people.

To help others get a feel for the place, here's an excerpt from a magazine article I wrote ("Vanuatu Unplugged," Blue Water Sailling, July 2014). Read more here.
