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.

Hope Town, Manjack Cay, Powell Cay

Elbow Cay Lighthouse, one of only three continuously operating kerosene lit lighthouses left in the world!

View of the Hope Town anchorage from the lighthouse. 

The narrow entrance to Hope Town - definitely a high tide destination for Chere.

Tyler from Zusammen, Ben from Dharma and Nat making the most of a rainy day at Manjack Cay.  They speared for over 4 hrs!


Birdie from Osprey, Eliza from Zusammen, and Hoku from Makana swimming on Chere's paddleboard - it was nice to have some girls onboard!


Pancake breakfast for all the kids in the anchorage at Powell Cay. 
We used more than 6 cups of flour.

Big fish on a small rod in skinny water....


52" barracuda on 12lb test - nice job Ben!

Fish On!  Always exciting when you are underway.  We have to slow/stop the boat, reel in the extra lines, find the gaff, and somehow not lose anyone overboard!


It's a big snapper!

 Mutton Snapper - 12lbs or more.  Yummy!
