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.

Ben checking out the back end of one of the caves at Rocky Dundas.
Cool stalactites and column formations in the caves.
Bones! Can you see them?
Trying to fool said bones . . . . We left the fly rod at the boat but were able to hook several.

Heading off on a conch hunt.
View from the top of Cambridge Cay.
Big guy cruising through the anchorage at dinner time.
Nat with a HUGE land hermit crab.
Exploring.
Betsy found this full, intact spiny lobster molt.

Feels good to stretch the legs after being on board for so long!
Heading back from a hike up a mangrove creek.
Just before he hopped on board!
Snack time.
Not something you see everyday.
Taking a break.
Beautiful flats, islets and cuts.
School is done for the day!
Dinner.

    Sam: Sounds like you are having a great time and settling into the wandering lifestyle. You stories are great, keep them coming. I have friends that live on Staniel Cay - wish I'd known that you were stopping by - it's an interesting island.
    Let em know if you are going to be joining us for FISH 2012 and I will reserve a spot. Send me a note at flycasting@comcast.net. Hope you get some great weather
