Even calm waters hide immense power. Witness how currents shape Bahamian boating, turning flat seas into challenging waves. Navigating these cuts demands constant attention, a reminder that tides here are as crucial as the weather.

The iguanas survived. The drone did not. 😂🦎🚁🌊

Our latest episode is LIVE!

We took the dinghy from Highbourne Cay over to Allen’s Cays looking for the famous Bahamian iguanas, and after initially going to the wrong spot, we definitely found them. LOTS of them. Some of these guys look like little dinosaurs!

We explored a few islands, found some absolutely MASSIVE iguanas, had an amazing meal at Xuma and, because apparently we haven’t learned our lesson yet...

we lost another drone to the ocean. 🤦‍♂️😂

RIP Flip. You served us well. 🫡

Come along for the adventure!

Navigating the tricky waters towards Exumas means facing a 'minefield' of potential hazards. With 15-20 knot winds, we're sailing at 6.5 knots, keeping a close watch on secondary chart plotter in Google Maps mode for any hidden rocks or coral. Deciding whether to sail or motor through this challenging patch is the next big question.

We're heading to Manjack (or Nunjack?) Cay for the first time! We've heard amazing things about the beaches, mangroves, and turtles, but we're also racing against incoming weather. Come along as we find a protected spot to anchor and explore this new destination.

07/10/2026

Good morning! We're pulling anchor and heading to No Name Cay, famous for its pigs and a new lunch spot. We'll check out the scene and then head north towards Green Turtle.

06/10/2026

After unpacking and planning, we set sail for Great Guana Cay. The mooring field was full, so we opted for the free anchorage in Fisher's Bay, enjoying the peace and protection.

Catching a glimpse of calm on a challenging crossing from Florida to Marsh Harbor. Even on a bumpy ride, the open ocean has its moments.

Explore the breathtaking beauty of the Yellow Bank in the Bahamas. This vast shallow plateau offers incredible turquoise, emerald, and sapphire waters, but demands careful navigation due to hidden coral heads. It's a beautiful reminder that the most stunning places require the most respect.
