We make our final journey aboard S/V Against The Wind. And say farewell to the vessel that brought us to our dreams. This one was a little emotional for us. The end of a chapter in our lives for sure. We get her cleaned up and listed for sale. She is a beautiful boat and took very good care of us. Sad to see her go, but hopeful she finds a good new home and many future adventures. We thank all of you for your support. We love all the positive feedback and inspiring messages we have gotten over the past 6 months. So glad you all enjoyed this series. Until next time....

We leave the Bahamas and head back to the States. It definitely bitter sweet. With a new job opportunity we are going to have to relocate. We make such good time on the Gulfstream crossing that we decide to skip our anchorage in Lake Worth and head straight for Hobe Sound. We hope you enjoy! Also don't forget S/V Against The Wind is for sale. For more info see the link below: https://www.advantageyacht.com/boats-for-sale/2001-beneteau-oceanis-clipper-311-indiantown-florida-7455460/

Our longest sail ever! And yes of course our longest video ever too, sorry. We attempt to go Nassau to Bimini for a 30 hours sail. However, the weather just does not cooperate. We end up stopping in Chub Cay to anchor out and top off fuel. Even still Chub Cay to Bimini was the longest sail we have ever done. We hope you enjoy! Also due to me going back to work and a relocation we are selling our boat. Check it out: https://www.advantageyacht.com/boats-for-sale/2001-beneteau-oceanis-clipper-311-indiantown-florida-7455460/

In this episode, we sail to Nassau. Winds are up and down, but hey we made it (with some motor sailing) in really good time actually. We arrive at Nassau Harbour Club Marina and hang out while we wait for our boat parts. Unfortunately, the boat parts don't arrive until after our weather window so we end up staying for an extra week and a half. Oh well, not a bad place to be stuck. We check out some local restaurants and some local parks while we wait. We hope you enjoy. A special thanks to the crew at Nassau Harbour Club Marina for the hospitality. Now that the boat is all fixed up. Check it out, its for sale! https://www.advantageyacht.com/boats-for-sale/2001-beneteau-oceanis-clipper-311-indiantown-florida-7455460/

Hunter catches more fish and we do a catch, clean, and cook (though it is a bit spread out in the vid). Then we karaoke and dance the night away at a cruiser happy hour in Blackpoint. Finally, we hunker down for a pretty good wind storm. We hope you enjoy! Also if you haven't yet, check out: https://www.youtube.com/c/WanderingKnapps They were a great family to hang with for a few days. We hope to cross paths in the future. And for the updated news. It's time to head back to work. S/V Against The Wind is for sale. For more info check it out: https://www.advantageyacht.com/boats-for-sale/2001-beneteau-oceanis-clipper-311-indiantown-florida-7455460/ It's sad to see her go she definitely took care of us. However, we will be relocating and will not be able to use her enough. We would rather see someone else enjoy her. Stay Tuned! The journey is not over! We are so glad to hear so many are inspired and enjoy watching our journey.

We finally leave Emerald Bay and Great Exuma behind. It's a very smooth day and we get to sail with the spinnaker, but we have to time the tides into Rudder Cut as it is known for not being a fun cut on the wrong side of tides and winds. We anchor out for the night at Rudder Cay which is just a few islands away from David Copperfield's island of Musha Cay. We dive the musician and dad kisses a mermaid. All and all a great day. Thanks for watching! We hope you enjoy!

We have our worst sail ever. We wanted to sell the boat and go home right then and there. We were ready for full-time RVing or something. Luckily we calmed down and thought about it for a bit. We go over what we learned and try to share with you. Sorry about the crude drawings and presentation. We also get a really nice clean and wax on the boat from Salty Living Cleaners. Captain CJ takes so much pride in his work. We highly recommend them. They also do underwater maintenance type jobs too. Salty Living Cleaners in Great Exuma Island: Captain CJ.

This video is a little different. Hopefully you enjoy! Back to regular programing next week. We go from Staniel Cay to Blackpoint; however, we don't make it! The video doesn't do it justice, but we tried. Those seas were standing above to boom on the boat. At least 6 foot and standing up. Anyway check it out and let us know what you think. We end up going to Big Galliot, which turned out to be a great stop! Thank you for watching! Fair winds and Calm Seas!

Join us as we play in Staniel Cay. We have pigs chase us while wake surfing. Can't say I ever been afraid to fall because of being attacked by pigs. Later we go to piggy island and feed the pigs. Then we check out Thunderball Grotto, which is a really cool cave system that was used in 2 James Bond movies. Finally, we check out Staniel Cay and the yacht club. And yes more sharks! Thanks for watching! We hope you enjoy!

Join us as we explore Warderick Wells in the Exuma Island Chain or The Bahamas. What a very diverse hike. Seems like we went from forest, to badlands, to plains, to mountains all in less than an hour. We hike up Boo Boo Hill. There are Legends of spirits of lost sailors and their boats haunting the island. We talk a little about conserving our oceans and what it means for wildlife as well as you and me. Also we try to see a blow hole, but it doesn't quite work out. I guess we need to research that a little more. I'm sure it has something to do with tides. We hope you enjoy! Thanks for following us on this crazy journey. Remember "pack in pack out" And every little thing can help clean up our oceans and beaches. Fair Winds and Calm Seas
