FIRST TRIAL RUN

Sailing was always a dream and an idea for me. Then I met Marcus, who has been instrumental in helping me turn this dream into reality. I'm thrilled to share that after months of hard work, we finally completed our first trial run, which also doubled as a celebration for Marcus' birthday. While we're not navigating the high seas just yet, we're taking all the necessary steps to ensure we're safe and prepared. We chose to venture approximately 500 feet from the yacht club for our first trial run, spending the night just far enough from town but close enough to return if needed.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly on this trip—YAY! Camping out on the water was exhilarating, with no electricity, limited internet until our phones died, and cooking on an alcohol stove. It's such a joy to be alone or with Marcus, sitting midway on the sailboat, watching dolphins play, witnessing the sky's colors change, and marveling at the stars. We still have a journey ahead, but we're taking it one trip at a time. This is just the beginning of making our boat great again and ready for the high seas.
