Hey guys, We will be starting our cruise between late February or early March, and likely will be starting in the area between USVI and St Kitts & Nevis. It's a bit sad how late we are starting, but due to work, it's the best we were able to do. I know hurricane seasons starts in June and...

Here's my last video until I return to the boat and get to collect some new material (plus my demo license for Adobe just ran out). This video shows why I keep on returning to the Caribbean!

My hubby and I quit our jobs a couple of years ago and cruised the Caribbean and Bahamas for a year. We're going to be doing a webinar on how to prepare to cruise the Caribbean and Bahamas on a sailboat (to help those of you out that are aiming to do the same thing we did). What questions would...
