Our Story In a Nutshell

In 2003 , we began our labor of love and started to restore our CSY 44 sailboat,which we named Freedom. After 5 1/2 years of pure sweat, (Florida in July in a t-vac suit and full mask)some tears, endless reading and lots of leaps of faith, restoration was completed in January 2009. The rest of the story is unraveling as we learn to become the sailors we have always read about. Their inspiration has always lead us to new places...the real reson we started this adventure to begin with. We left from St. Petersburg, Florida in January 2009, sailed to Longboat key, then Useppa, St. James City, Cape Coral, Marathon, Rodriguez Key, Miami, then onto the Bahamas. In the Bahamas we sailed to Norman's Key, Shroud, Hawksbill, Warderick Wells, Black Point, Staniel Key, Spanish wells, Eleuthera, Little Harbor, Marsh harbor and then over to Beaufort North Carolina...up the ICW to Norfolk and finally we ended up in the Chesapeake Bay.

Not to sound too mushy....Happy Turkey Day to all our family and friends. We have seen quite a number of you the last 3 months...thanks for being a really wonderful part of our life. We will be shipping out on Friday, down the Intracoastal due to some strong winds over the weekend, we will avoid the Atlantic for now...Have a lot of stuffing,gravy, turkey etc...worry about the calories next week.We will be in touch....To everyone we have not seen recently, we have you on our minds and hearts.
We are celebrating T-Day with our friends from Blue Blaze at the Manges household...always outdoing themselves in a culinary way....
Hugs
