A Beach Wedding in the BVI

In early December we headed for the British Virgin Islands to marry our youngest off and spend a week playing. We leased a 47 from Conch Charters.

We headed for Trellis bay to catch the full moon party and pick the kids up from the airport.

While we were there mom and the kids headed down to Road Town for a Dolphin encounter.

Next stop was the Baths

From there we headed up to Leverick Bay four some snorkeling and fresh water showers.

Next was the bubbly pool and Sidney's Peace and Love Bar for Lobsters.

After a hike around Sandy Cay taking selfies with a Go Pro camera mounted the wrong way, we headed down to White bay and visited The Soggy Dollar Bar.

We visited a couple others while we were there.

The next morning after spending the night at Sopher's Hole we headed over to The Bite at Norman Island for some stand up boarding and snorkeling at the Indians.

Well, that finished the honeymoon part of the trip, next came the wedding. The kids had reservations at Long Beach so we caught a taxi at Sopher's Hole and headed over for the day. We had a beautiful setting and a very nice ceremony performed by a local minister. Definitely a fantastic finish to a great week.

Catching Up

It has been a very busy year and I have been neglecting my blog. That doesn't mean that we left our boating dreams behind. I will attempt to chronicle the rest of 2014 and get started on the new year.

August Zoe
We decided it was time to get busy on Zoe's Toe rail.

It has been slow progress but the results are striking 

August Whatta Deal.

We have had a good summer entertaining the kids and grandkids out at the lake on our Catalina 30. We picked up an inflatable kayak and it has been a huge hit.

September Zoe

Next project for Zoe was the addition of a Rogue Wave WiFi extender.

I spent 2 days hanging on the back railing fishing wires down the radar post and through the engine room to the router at the nav station. We are very pleased with the performance of the Rogue.

Our youngest Shannon and her Hubby Dustin joined us for the boat show. We had a nice weekend at the show and good food at The Boatyard.

Winter came early this year for Zoe. We had a beach wedding in the BVI and a hip replacement to get through so we spent the rest of October packing up. Zoe is currently on the hard waiting for spring and a new adventure. We are planning a spring move to Virginia for some cosmetic work and a fall move to Harbortown at Cocoa Beach Florida.
