April 14, 2025, Update: We’ve enjoyed our first week back in the Abacos, and we’re excited about spending more time exploring new (and old) spots throughout the Abaco Islands between now and May 10, when we start the journey home. Please check our PredictWind tracker for updates on where we are at any given time, and check out some of our new videos.

We’ve started producing more edited videos for different locations and we created a page where we we’ll link directly to those videos. Our most recent longer form video was of our time in the Upper Exumas with our friends Kerry & Jim

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 the Bahamas (Winter 2024) so much that we decided to do a second season cruising in the Bahamas (Winter 2025).
