#43: How Many Lawyers Does it Take?

Two apparently! Removing these shrouds required some hefty plumbing wrenches and a few bad lawyers jokes but we finally got them off! Enjoy!

Thanks to my Patrons who help me share the journey. Get inspired. Get on board.

Annapolis boat show coming up this week! ⛵️😍 These chicks are ready! 💪 #havewindwilltravel #annapolisboatshow #sailors

Access my Bahamas Top Ten slides via HaveWind today. I filled a bottle up with some bubbly Annie Charm, shook it, and let it explode on folks at the recent Trawlerfest in Baltimore. Speaker Annie was definitely ON! I gave three talks: 1) an informal ladies tea (which was a great candid conversation with gals who rightfully have a lot of questions about going cruising); 2) "Rock the Boat" encouraging more females to get out and go cruising (I'm pretty sure I cursed a handful of times but had the whole crowd laughing a good bit); and 3) my "Bahamas Top Ten" which was the most widely attended (and appreciated it seemed) talk. For that reason, I uploaded my Bahamas Top Ten slides from my presentation at HaveWind today (by popular request from Trawlerfest attendees). Enjoy!

While we certainly did not plan it that way, and I didn’t even notice until we arrived in Annapolis, MD, I will never forget the day we moved aboard our new 2015 Outbound 46, Ubiquitous (who has since taken on the fun nickname gifted to us by her former owner: “UbiQ”) as it was April 3, 2021. Fresh up on the HaveWind blog today, our new hybrid cruising chapter aboard the most beautiful boat ever begins in four … three … two … one … BLASTOFF!

If we share the pretty sunrises and sunsets we gotta share these too. Storms are not our favorite time on the water. But thankfully this one swept right around us and Ubiquitous (whom we’ve been lovingly calling UbiQ) stayed dry and safe. Whew! ⛈ #havewindwilltravel #lifeaboard #storm

There is nothing like waking up on the water … 🥰⛵️ #havewindwilltravel #outbound46

Fun news up on the blog today about my Baltimore Trawlerfest speaking gig and a preview of one of my seminar topics -- "Rock the Boat" -- a talk designed to empower women who want to go cruising with the truth that they are far more capable and resourceful than they let themselves believe and that becoming an equal CREW member aboard (rather than a pampered princess) will only enhance their cruising experience. 💪 ⛵️ One of the very fun stories I like to share when speaking on this topic? "He's just not that into you." Read more about it in the freshly-posted blog up at HaveWind today. Hope to see some of you at the show! #havewindwilltravel #boatshow #trawlerfest #sailors #cruisers
