They say you should never rename a boat… unless you do it properly. One year ago, under island rain and ocean breeze, we said goodbye to her old name and welcomed Bruadar's new one. Honoring the rituals and superstitions behind boat renaming ceremonies, we poured out rum for the sea, words for the wind, and gratitude for every safe passage she’s already given. Here’s to fair winds, following seas, and the promise of new adventures for our second season. 👉 Book your sail with us here: www.lazysheetsailing.com 🌴 Subscribe for more real-life sailing moments, island adventures, and behind-the-scenes stories from Lazy Sheet Sailing. ⚓ #LazySheetSailing #SailingTraditions #BoatRenamingCeremony #SailSXM #StMaarten #SailingLife Music from YouTube Audio Library: Aztec Empire by Jimena Contreras

Ever wonder how freshwater ends up on deck for cleaning aboard a sailboat? Spoiler: it’s not high-tech. On this boat, we use the transom shower to get just enough water for small cleaning jobs. It’s simple, practical, and always a little awkward on a moving deck. There’s no unlimited supply, so every rinse counts. 💧 Real sailboat life. A little sloshy, always salty. This is part of life aboard Bruadar, sailing out of St. Maarten with Lazy Sheet Sailing. ——— ⚓️ Book your day sail: www.lazysheetsailing.com 📍 Departing from Bobbie's Marina, Philipsburg, St. Maarten ——— #SailboatLife #LazySheetSailing #SailboatCleaning #BoatTasks #SailingDailyLife #StMaarten #BoatCleaning #HowToSail #LiveaboardLife #SailCaribbean #CaribbeanSailing #Celebrity Cruises #Celebrity Beyond #Beyond Cruise
