Live Update: June 26, 2023 (Patreon)

Hi Guys!

If you felt like there was a missing live update from last week, then your feelings did not lead you astray. We took last week to finalize our plans for the season, and it's official, we finally did it! We are heading to Trinidad! That was our original plan when we decided to stay in the Caribbean, but non the less, we managed to come full circle. Our haul-out is scheduled for mid-July, and our flights back to the U.S. are booked. 

We will visit my family in Michigan for a few weeks and have a little wedding party in my parent's backyard. We haven't been able to celebrate with them yet :) Then we will hit the road for our great DIY boat tour. We are thinking of calling the series "This Old Boat" What do you think? We are open to suggestions ;) The details of that trip are still being worked out, but we will keep you posted. Then our last stop before we head back to Trinidad will be at the Annapolis Boat Show! Woo Hoo!

We are looking forward to it and getting a chance to meet many of you in the U.S :)

We don't have to head to Trinidad for a few weeks. So, we are staying here in Prickly Bay until the end of the week, then will hop around and check out a few anchorages nearby. 

Last weekend we checked out an abandoned Passport 47 in the yard. I will tell the truth, Mads was very close to setting down roots here in Grenada and starting a new project. It is a shame that it's been left to rot. In its hay day, it was such a beautiful boat and can still be for anyone willing to put in the time...but Mads might be the only one crazy enough to take on a project like that  ;) I'll post some photos of the state it's in now. We have a video with all the details coming out in a few weeks. 

That's all for this week. We are looking forward to these upcoming months. See you all next week :)
