T-Minus 1 Day Til Departure
Dockside, St. Maarten
Dutch West Indies
The day is finally here!
After safety briefings, weather briefings, boat maintenance and insanely amounts of grocery shopping we are now prepared for crossing the Atlantic. The first one for many onboard so you can really feel a mix of excitement and anxiety in the air. Just how it is supposed to be I believe. In just a few minutes the diver is coming helping out with our mooring and letting us free.
The Atlantic, HERE WE COME!
Love,
Erik, Adrienne Skipper

Dolphin party!
Kate was about to yank the spinnaker’s sock down when I spotted a stampede of fins heading straight for us. ”Dolphins!”, I yelled back to the cockpit excitedly. Post dinner dish duty was halted down below for the show.
The pool is open!
We stopped the boat, got the ladder down and put out a line with a fender behind the boat. I love swimming in the middle of the ocean, and a bit scary when you realize its more than 4000+ m deep! Love it!
Big Pink Sail Day
I had a most fashionable pointed striped hat at dinner, and out of the depths of a cupboard a cake was created, after 14 days at sea. A group of people I had never met two weeks ago made me feel very special today.
