Hurricane Irene

Well, we took her out of the water and up on the hard. We have taken all the canvas off, tightened everything down. Now we wait????

Too hot for comfort

It is too hot here, we spent July and August in the Chesapeake last year. It was too hot, and no wind. This year we have decided to put Jessie up for the two months and return to her in the fall with renewed vigor.

Pamlico sound can be nasty

Another Type of Yacht

The Island Family Regatta, Georgetown, Bahama's

One day of rain could not dampen our spirits. Bring on the Kalik and conch salad.

Blue Holes everywhere

The blue holes on the charts of the Bahamas. They appear on charts as abrupt dept changes in a small area, they are worth checking out.    

Dean's blue hole

The Boiling hole, my favorite.

January in Miami

We continue south on the Jessie Marie, our Tashiba 36. She's named after our mothers, in the down east tradition. Thank you Robert Perry for designing such a great little yacht, she continues to amaze us.
