The Latest…
November 7, 2024 Update: After arriving Norfolk on Nov 3, we spent a few days waiting for a good weather window before we left last night on our crossing to Spanish Wells in the Bahamas. The trip should take right around 5 days. We’ll add photos to the Nov 2024 Chesapeake to the Bahamas album along the way, and you can track our progress on SV Second Half’s Predict Wind map. We’ll also add short updates on Predict Wind throughout the trip.

We finally updated our website with photos from the end of last season, along with some pictures from our summer of working on the boat. Check out our Photos page for links to all the albums

We’re a little behind on updating our Blog, but plan to get some blogs up in the next week or so with content about the passage north from Cape Canaveral along with some content on our summer of working on the boat. Stay tuned!!
About Us
We both lost our amazing spouses during mid-life. We found one another seeking support from others who had a similar experience and married in August 2022. We talked about dreams for our second half together, and sailing was part of the dream. We were fortunate to retire early and purchased Second Half, a 2022 Leopard 45 Sailing Catamaran, in November 2023. We loved our first season in Winter 2024, and we’re getting ready to depart on our second season cruising in the Bahamas.
