After being offshore, sailing in the blue water on a fast 2 day reach from the USVI to Grenada, we arrive and spend almost a fortnite in quarantine. In this satisfying video, we do some sailing, but you get to see a lot of us making funny videos while stuck on the boat for over a week at anchor.

You know what's awesome about being at anchor in for that long? There is no CNN, no MSNBC, no Fox News, no parties, no drama. It's just the two of us and the asmr sounds of the ocean and birds, Kate playing beautiful music as she is learning the guitar, and enjoying sunsets and nature.

We have a smooth sail and show the checking in the process via MAYAG into Grenada. It was overall a good and motivational experience! (A note, now you need to use SailClear).

Come along for the ride with us as we take our J/46 monohull sailboat on an around-the-world voyage.

Who are we?

We are Kate, Curtis, and Roxy the Dog. We are from Ohio/Michigan and we bought and re-fit our sailboat in Rhode Island. We set off almost two years ago, cruising the northeast, Maine, Bahamas, and the Caribbean and have been living off the grid since then.

Our plan is to sail around the world via the great capes (Cape Horn and the Cape of Good Hope).

We were lifelong young sailors and sailboat racers, but like many others, we were inspired by videos from the likes of Sailing La Vagabond, SV Delos, Gone with the Wynns, and many others. We don't have a fancy catamaran, but we think we have the perfect cruising sailboat. We wanted to pass the inspiration along. Hopefully, our videos motivate you to get out there and go sailing as well.
