We recently had a special tour of the University of the Virgin Islands coral and mangrove work in St Thomas. UVI overlooks one of our favorite anchorages where there is a cross over of the sailing and university communities. Greg is a very enthusiastic coral scientist and gave us an amazing tour, even letting us feed his pillar corals that he is currently working with to learn more about the local disease that plagues them. Check out their little fingers that wiggle as they grab the plankton.

Happy mini season! From tickle to table, there’s nothing like spiny lobster.

SOLD! We are now living and working in the Virgin Islands, where I assisted my buyer on the purchase of this Dragonfly 1200 folding trimaran. This Danish built trimaran has a beam of 28ft when sailing with amas that are designed to fold in, giving her a beam of 14ft for docking and hauling out. What a fun boat to sail on sea trail! We survived the stormiest 3 days of survey (usually only 1 day) to secure my buyer’s dream boat.
I’m a just a TriDelt adding Trimarans to the Multihulls I sell with . Let me know when you are ready to sell or move aboard your very own catamaran or trimaran ⛵️

Our favorite local getaway only made better by our proximity to Pizza Pi and boat friends.

Thanks for the photo

A different day, a different bay (as Lisa says). It was so great to meet up with Ocean (and the humans on and ). We haven’t seen these sailing homies since our way back up the Eastern Caribbean in 2024 and it was like no time passed at all.

Please note the singing shark at shack in the first pic. And hang the second pic in the Met. The best photograph I’ve ever accidentally taken 😆🤗 also, please welcome our new bb gecko, Cousin Greg II.

This gang makes us miss . Please enjoy some throwbacks at the end of the reel. Looking forward to sharing an anchorage with you guys again in the future 😘

This time last year we were tearing up the with some of our sailing besties. Most notably the poker run, beach-hopping golf, and dinghy concerts. We miss sharing an anchorage with and but sure do like looking back at all the fun we had. I guess we need new friends with a …

SOLD // Cheers to my buyers on their new Leopard 53 Power Cat, Breathe!

An alternative cruising platform with a multitude of merits: speed (we hit 22knots so smoothly), luxurious living space with the layout of a beamy catamaran, easy-access engine rooms with space for additional systems.

Bonus: I took the most beautiful plane ride from Staniel Cay, Bahamas to Fort Lauderdale to survey this amazing yacht.

Let me know if you are ready to start the search for your next boat with me and

🐚 shell yea 🐚
as we finish out our time in the Bahamas and I’ve been sick and trying to stay away from people, I’ve been shelling hard. my goal was to find another helmet conch or tritan’s trumpet before we leave and within 20 minutes or saying that outloud, I found an empty baby helmet at the site of the old pipe creek swings. Exuma magic or does manifestation sometimes work? two days ago I found a bunch of olives (shells) on a beach south of Blackpoint and yesterday I found a handful of cowries after a tip from . those islands will now be renamed on our map Olive Beach and Cowrie Beach, respectively. gotta get out of here before we take on much more shell weight.
Bonus: iguanas on the backside leeward side of cowrie beach

Merry Christmas from our family to yours. Lucky in love and location ❤️🩵💚
