After being out of the water for 4 months, we head back to Grenada to prepare Symphony for the next sailing season.

    Is that your boat that just went up for sale with Just Catamarans? If so, I will miss seeing your adventures and curious what is next, eg new boat, land life, etc?

      It is! Erin’s in school, two of our kids are getting married in the next few months, parents are getting older etc. etc. so we’re done sailing for now :( I still have a few videos to wrap up, and we’ll be visiting friends on their boats to keep our sailing skills up! And who knows, maybe the Great Loop in a couple of years.

      @SailingSymphony ปีที่แล้ว

      It was $50US each time Jaco checked the boat, ended up being around $700 for 4 and a half months. Well worth it, I was able to ping him when I needed stuff done and it got done. And yes Jeff is a riot, we just left them in Saint Lucia and sadly won’t be getting together again till this fall in Annapolis. But then I think we’ll be sailing with them down to the Bahamas for the next season.

Please don’t be afraid to let the camera linger on those trouble area close ups. I feel like I’m taking an armchair captain course watching and imagining I’m doing it too. I figure if one hour of actual experience equals about 100 hours of armchair observing, then I’ve only got about another fifty years of training before I’m all set to go. 😁 Sincere thanks for your generosity sharing your adventures with us. Fair winds.
