March 7, 2026
After a month on Dominica, we (reluctantly) said goodbye to the nature island and headed back north to Guadeloupe. We spent a few days in Les Saintes and are now heading about halfway up the west coast to the Malendure/Bouillante area. Our goal for the next week is to scout out a few spots to take friends and family who will be here for the last two weeks of March.

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 2021. 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. After two great winter seasons in the Bahamas, we’re heading to the Eastern Caribbean for Winter 2026 and will spend the season sailing along the islands between Antigua and Grenada.
