Sometimes you take a leap!

With thoughts of our future and our dreams of possibly living aboard for a couple of years, we wrestled with the decision if Ti Amo would be the vessel to bring us to that place.

Years of making the winter trip to the Bahamas, we have loved the comforts of Ti Amo and have found her to be a perfect vessel in many ways. The biggest downside for us would be climbing in and out of the cockpit with bags and bags of groceries.

Our friends Barry and Robin Newland have a trawler.....a Selene 43. We have loved that vessel since we first saw it but knew for us we would want one just a little larger. With a weird turn of events, we found a Selene 53 this year that was coming on the market and we went for it. Sometimes you just have to take the leap......

From The Underside: This is what our mast looks like as we pass under these 65 foot bridge openings.  I still hold my breath.
Best Mate Asleep?: Well I think someone is asleep on the job.....guess it best to be this guy than the other guy
Traffic Jam: We start our trip with a bridge that is "normally" open.  That should have been a clue for things to come.  All boats are jockeying for position....kind of reminds me of a horse race.
