Cruising on the Lady Maryland

Despite the threatening weather, morning events were still on and we had a great sail on the Lady Maryland with Captain Michael and crew. It was really a great morning to be on the water!

Now it's time to head home and prep for Frankenstorm!

Downrigging Weekend

Well, with "Frankenstorm" on its way we are sticking with our plans for the weekend! We got to Chestertown tonight just in time to walk out on the 231 bridge and watch a great fireworks show behind the tall ships. The kids and I splashed around in the pool and now they are resting up for our sail on the Lady Maryland tomorrow. Should be fun!

Who are we?

We are Frank, Jody, Katreina, and Trent, and we lived aboard our Beneteau 393 "Lehe Paine" (pronounced LAY-hay PIE-nay) since the spring of 2009. We began full-time cruising and traveling in the fall of 2019 and sailed the U.S. east coast and the Bahamas until the fall of 2022. We then took a "boat break," traveling around South America via land and air and before dropping anchor on land for a bit in Northeast North Carolina. We are still happy to chat about all things boat, live-aboard life, cruising, boat schooling, and travel!
