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.

Eluethera to the Abacos


Heading out for a morning bonefishing trip in Southern Eluethera


On the rail . . . .


Uh, Dad -- there's a plane heading into the anchorage.


Don't worry about it, boys.  We're pretty close to the airport.  I'm sure he's just heading over there.


Don't think so, Dad.  Might want to come up on deck for a look!


Flying the cruising chute on a rare downwind run along the east coast of Eluethera.


Osprey doing the same.


Following Osprey and Celilo through tricky Current Cut, which was is aptly named.  We had 5+ kts of current heading through. 


Osprey making the dogleg turn through the cut, with Celilo close behind.


Ben getting some "surfing" in near the Glass Window on Eluethera.


Win hooked a big Greater Amberjack while we were anchored up off Current settlment.  Can you tell if he's excited?!?


Quick photo opp with Win's fish after a long fight.  20lbs on 12lb test; not too shabby for a 7yo.


A good Mutton Snapper hooked in Current Cut.


Wing n' wing while heading to the Abacos.  A long, long day with little wind and no fish caught.


Heading into Hopetown harbor.  Skinny, skinny water.


Strolling through Hopetown . . .  


and ruising around Elbow Cay (in a golf cart) with the family.
