hello! It has been a rough few weeks onboard with working through all of the possible routes and weather windows to sail through the Bahamas during what is supposed to be a very active hurricane season. We would have been rushing through and that just seemed silly. So, we’ve come to the difficult decision that it safest for us to sail north until early fall before making our way back south. That is of course, the current plan, and plans change all of the time. Thanks for following along, Cheers! -Ed & Paige #lifeonasailboat #sailing #changeofplans
