We're setting sail! Our family of five is leaving our cozy home in Duxbury, MA to live aboard our Beneteau 461, Chere. We will start on board in January in Charleston, SC and make our way south to the Bahamas for the winter. We are home-schooling our three boys Nat (12), Ben (9) and Win (6) as we travel.

Working late

Still preparing the boat for tomorrow's departure; moving fuel,tying down surf boards, filling the water tanks, closing up the car, stowing food, stubbing toes, feeding children...... We are leaving in the morning with the incoming tide and depending on the weather and the bridge schedule we may push to Beaufort. The boys enjoyed the first half of the rainy day with Legos and schoolwork. It was raining and blowing hard. The change in the weather makes us want to go further south!
