Happy New Year 2020 !!

Happy New Year 2020 to all of our boating friends out there.  Jennifer and I hope that all of you had a Merry Christmas and a safe New Year’s Eve.

Now that the Christmas holidays and the boat parades are behind us, it’s time to look towards a new year of fun on the water.

It’ll be springtime before you know it, and the warm days of summer 2020 won’t be far behind.

But first, one more recap from the boating year past . . .

Christmas Boat Parades:

Once again, the 2019 Christmas boat parades did not disappoint. Both the Merritt Island Christmas Boat Parade and the Lake Conway Christmas Boat Parades were a hit for all of the boaters that participated this year. Continue reading “Happy New Year 2020! A Look Back and Forward”

Hurricane Dorian, Heartache, and the Albin 36

Hurricane Dorian on the way

Test 1, 2, 3 . . .     is this thing on?  

We are soooo stoked to be back in the blog-o-sphere and ready to post about everything from checking out an Albin 36′ trawler, to moving, and even hurricane Dorian.

We’re back online and transmitting from our new location just barely above sea level in sunny Melbourne, Florida.

What Happened?! We’re Still Here!

“What happened to you guys?”

Hi everyone. It has been a while since our last post. What happened?

Jennifer and I want to say “thank you” to all of you that emailed us wondering what happened with our boat blog and why we weren’t posting.  It’s nice to be missed.

Sadly, the answer to “what happened” is. . .  Life has been getting in the way!!

We want to clarify that comment.   Our Life is fantastic!               

Jennifer, Robert, and I are all still healthy and safe. For the most part, our family and friends are doing fine as well. We are blessed.

Even with the peak of hurricane season upon us, we’ve faired very well so far here in Florida.  As I type this, Jennifer reminds me that hurricane season doesn’t end until November and I might jinx it.   Let’s hope for the best.

Our best wishes go out to all that are being affected by Hurricane Florence and the continued flooding that is causing so much damage.
