The storm is over, but the fallout has just begun. We survived the lightning strike. Now comes the hard part. Assessing the damage, one system at a time. In this episode of Sailing Dark Angel, still reeling from the lightning strike, we hang on anchor at Thomas Cay and start sorting through the damage. Then we move to Staniel Cay to check the keel, begin repairs, and start the long and costly process of getting replacement parts shipped in. ⚠️ Lightning Strike Update We were directly struck by lightning. Navigation systems, running lights, anchor lights, work lights, a large freezer, and even our keel were damaged. We're still facing VAT, duty, exchange rates, customs brokerage, and a costly haul-out for keel repairs in the Dominican Republic. Current items still needing repair/replacement include our Isotherm freezer in the saloon, our AIS and keel repairs. Also, our newly replaced wind instruments aren't working. Facing shipping and customs for replacement.

This day changed everything for us. In this episode of Sailing Dark Angel, we work our way up the Exumas chain from Big Farmers Cay to our favorite anchorage at Thomas Cay, searching for calm waters away from swell and wakes. Our peaceful spot turns chaotic as a squall builds into a nightmare thunderstorm, threatening to drag our anchor. Then the unthinkable. A direct lightning strike hits us. ⚠️ Lightning Strike Update We were directly struck by lightning. Navigation systems, running lights, anchor lights, work lights, a large freezer, and even our keel were damaged. We're still facing VAT, duty, exchange rates, customs brokerage, and a costly haul-out for keel repairs in the Dominican Republic.

We flew the spinnaker, met stingrays face to face, and even found starfish creeping along the sand. In this episode of Sailing Dark Angel, we spinnaker sail all the way from Georgetown, Exuma to Rudder Cut Cay, where we spend the day with stingrays gliding around us and starfish creeping across the sandy bottom. Then it is time for a long overdue bottom scrub, with our stingrays friends keeping us company. ⚠️ Lightning Strike Update In real time, we were directly struck by lightning. Navigation systems, running lights, anchor lights, work lights, a large freezer, and even our keel were damaged.

Anchors down, beaches empty, and not a soul in sight. In this episode of Sailing Dark Angel we cruise from Water Cay back to Georgetown, slipping through the skinny Hog Cay Cut. Georgetown’s quiet for hurricane season, but the beaches are still gorgeous and all but ours. From diving murky anchors at Honeymoon to chasing calmer water at Da Sand Bar, it’s all part of getting set for the next big blow. ⚠️ Lightning Strike Update In real time, we were directly struck by lightning. Navigation systems, running lights, anchor lights, work lights, a large freezer, and even our keel were damaged.

Rock walls, reef life, and the kind of freedom only sailing brings. In this episode of Sailing Dark Angel, we’re bobbing through bombies on the sail from Flamingo Cay to Water Cay. An anchor check leads to a coral dive, then I swap the boat for my paddleboard to trace Water Cay’s towering rock walls and narrow cut. The day peaks with a turtley dive and wraps up on a stunning sandy beach. ⚠️ Lightning Strike Update In real time, we were directly struck by lightning. Navigation systems, running lights, anchor lights, work lights, a large freezer, and even our keel were damaged.

Travel days in the Raggeds mean more than just sailing — every stop brought us coral dives, shoreline exploring, and big underwater surprises. 💙 What’s your favorite balance of travel vs exploring when you’re on the move? In this episode of Sailing Dark Angel, we head for Buenavista Cay, where an anchor check suddenly becomes a coral dive. Then it’s on to Flamingo Cay, where a big barracuda crashes my anchor check before we set off to explore the shoreline by dinghy and dive its vibrant coral. Even on travel days, adventure finds us. ⚠️ Lightning Strike Update In real time, we were directly struck by lightning.

There’s nothing like the freedom of flying a spinnaker. Colorful, quiet, and carrying us toward a remote anchorage in the Ragged Islands. From crowded Hog Cay to peaceful Raccoon Cay, this is the kind of sailing dream we live for. In this episode of Sailing Dark Angel, we leave the busy anchorage at Hog Cay and set our spinnaker for a serene, dreamlike sail to Raccoon Cay. Once anchored, the calm gives way to adventure as I launch my paddleboard to explore hidden beaches and dramatic limestone along the coastline. ⚠️ Lightning Strike Update In real time, we were directly struck by lightning. Navigation systems, running lights, anchor lights, work lights, a large freezer, and even our keel were damaged.

In this episode of Sailing Dark Angel, we sail past Raccoon Cay and drop anchor at Double Breasted Cay. With rays and turtles on the sandbank, a barracuda-guarded stream to snorkel, rocks to climb, and conch to rescue, there’s no shortage of exploring to do, including a mysterious airplane engine on the beach. Any landing you can walk away from... probably wasn't this one. ⚠️ Lightning Strike Update In real time, we were directly struck by lightning. Navigation systems, running lights, anchor lights, work lights, a large freezer, and even our keel were damaged. We're still facing VAT, duty, exchange rates, customs brokerage, and a costly haul-out for keel repairs in the Dominican Republic.

In this episode of Sailing Dark Angel, we sail to Buenavista Cay and visit the ruins of a generational home lost to Hurricane Irma. A goat-shadowed hike takes us across the island to the wild ocean side, and a dive near the anchorage reveals coral heads, squid, remora, and swirling schools of fish. *in real time, we've been struck directly by lightning. All of our navigation systems, running, navigation, anchoring and work lights and much of our freezer capacity were badly damaged, as well as keel damage. Lightning exit or bottom strike while we were dragging at over 62 knots, we're not sure. If you can help, any amount would help greatly. Even just sharing our GoFundMe would be very much appreciated.

In this episode of Sailing Dark Angel, we set sail from Water Cay to Flamingo Cay, eager to explore hidden caves and snorkel in crystal-clear water. But paradise had a plot twist. Scattered across the seafloor and up on the beach were pieces of a wrecked sailboat, a salty mystery tucked into this stunning island backdrop. With triggerfish, barracuda, and angelfish along for the dive, we explore the beauty and the unexpected. *in real time, we've been struck directly by lightning. All of our navigation systems, running, navigation, anchoring and work lights and much of our freezer capacity were badly damaged, as well as keel damage.

In this episode of Sailing Dark Angel, we begin our first real taste of the Ragged Islands with an anchorage at Water Cay. From hiking rugged limestone trails and swimming beneath towering cliffs, to snorkeling with barracuda and spotting sharks, ospreys, and maybe even a pterodactyl? We dive into a wild, untamed corner of the Bahamas. The adventure’s just getting started. *in real time, we've been struck directly by lightning. All of our navigation systems, running, navigation, anchoring and work lights and much of our freezer capacity is badly damaged, as well as keel damage.

In this episode of Sailing Dark Angel, we leave Elizabeth Harbor and set out for the Ragged Islands.

In this episode of Sailing Dark Angel, we hike across Stocking Island in search of Bobin’s Bath, on a hidden beach that feels like our own private island. With caves to explore, dramatic rock formations, and zero crowds, it's well worth the trek.

In this episode of Sailing Dark Angel, we sail from Long Island to Great Exuma in perfect spinnaker conditions. It’s a steady breeze and sunshine kind of day, seven and a half hours of easy miles and peaceful motion. But as always, smooth sailing comes with a catch. The hull’s looking rough again, and before long, we’re back in the water scraping slime and hunting barnacles. Yep... we really need a bottom job. *in real time, we've been struck directly by lightning. All of our navigation systems, running, navigation, anchoring and work lights and much of our freezer capacity is badly damaged, as well as keel damage.

In this episode of Sailing Dark Angel, we sail from Conception Island to Thompson Bay, Long Island, where we meet our friends and tour the island by car for the first time.

In this episode of Sailing Dark Angel, we hop in for a casual reef dive behind our boat at Conception Island, only to find the underwater view a lot less postcard-perfect than we expected. So, we head for Conception Island’s wilder side, where things get rocky. Literally. There’s cliff climbing, beach hunting, and a slightly misguided quest for a “just over there” bay that… wasn’t.
