August 1st already? Where did the time go? We’ve been busy since we’ve returned to Bohemia Bay. We’ve seen our friends, visited family, and accomplished a lot on the boat. A small sampling of the items we’ve been working on: Sabrina has almost completed sewing us an awesome new bimini. It goes around the bases … Continue reading »

Now that we’re back to our car and easy nearby shopping, we’re starting to take care of some things that have been neglected. Today I’m proud to announce we’ve taken care of one thing that’s been missing for over a month: Back by popular demand – our Spot feed! In early May, our Spot II … Continue reading »

Before the storm came through on Friday, our good friend Sean took us wakeboarding and skiing. It was miserably hot, but the water was flat and still somewhat refreshing when you jumped in. With the long days we had plenty of time to play around before sunset. Sabrina and I were a little rusty, but … Continue reading »

UPDATE: I don’t know how Delmarva Power did it that fast, but yesterday I heard that they got the power back on at the marina! Check out the photos below to see the mess they were dealing with. We hope everyone without power gets it back soon, stay cool since it looks like this heat … Continue reading »

Friday night we got a chance to hang out with our good friends Steve and Heather on their boat M/V “Bottoms Up” in Galesville, MD. Galesville is on the West River, and is a pretty cool place to keep a boat. We had fresh rockfish onboard while thunderstorms swept through the area. Saturday we motored … Continue reading »

We have postponed our trip north after learning that Brad’s paternal grandmother passed away earlier this week after a battle with Alzheimer’s. When we heard the news on Wednesday, we tried desperately to find some way to get back to Ohio for the funeral arrangements, a difficult proposition in this remote portion of North Carolina. … Continue reading »

Yesterday we finally got a chance to hang out with our good friends Brett and Jen who live in Hilton Head. Unfortunately, we weren’t in Hilton Head, but still in Fernandina. For the last several days we’ve been trying to go north while a stalled front, severe thunderstorms and strong northeast winds have combined to … Continue reading »

Here are the photos to accompany our trip to Cumberland Island. The ruins are the remains of the Dungeness estate owned by the Carnegies (it burned in the late 1950’s.) We took a walking tour narrated by a very informative ranger through the ruins and the grounds of the old family estate.

On our way south last December, the first port we really enjoyed was Fernandina Beach and we have looked forward to coming back here ever since. Looking back while in the Bahamas, we thought maybe we just liked it because it was warm, or we felt like it was a milestone, or maybe we were … Continue reading »
