When not working on Reviews or Projects, we try to have fun taking trips on our boats. This is a list of some of the most recent trips we have taken, and stories behind them.
Going ashore can be challenging in places with large tidal swings and rocky shorelines. An anchor buddy with some modifications can make this process much easier.
2024 was an epic year - 3000 miles, my favorite anchorage ever in the Central Coast of British Columbia, northern lights, and more.
We bought a 50' 2003 Kristen Yachts steel pilot house trawler in late 2023. She is an amazing ship with tons of cool systems and a relaxing interior.
I did over 2800 nautical miles and 370 hours underway this year on Kaos all around the Salish Sea, mostly in Canada.
The first few months of owning a new boat are a flurry of exciting adventures and projects, and Kaos was no exception.
Kaos is a 1994 Symbol pilothouse yacht that became part of our family in January 2022
Rendezvous, an Ocean Alexander 420 Sundeck motor yacht, is for sale!
Oro Bay on the south end of Anderson Island in the Salish Sea is a beautiful anchorage with a nearby park, quiet privacy, and wonderful views.
I think we are all missing the social aspect of owning a boat – chatting with other boat owners about projects, harrowing adventures, and everything in between. While we can’t all get together like we normally would, I’m going to try a virtual version, hoping that you will join me!
I switched from sail to power a year ago and haven't looked back. There are pros and cons, but I am glad I made the switch!
After working on lots of projects this winter on Rendezvous, I was itching to get out on the water and test all of them on a longer journey. I was delighted at the opportunity to accompany a friend and her boat up to Friday Harbor for the season, and the trip was wonderful!
After having Rendezvous on the dock for the last few weeks, I was itching to get out on the water and enjoy some winter cruising. Crew member Jake was free early on a Friday, so we set off to Poulsbo for the weekend.
