We took a fun powerboat ride to Culebrita, a tiny island by Culebra, to enjoy the snorkeling and hikes go Tortuga Beach, the rocky tide pools and the abandoned lighthouse. There were many goat and hermit crab sighting and some cervesas on the beach. We had some rain showers but overall a really fun day!
We were saddened to find out upon our arrival in San Juan that our Cape Air flight to Culebra was cacelled. But it turned out to be an adventure and a day in the water as we grabbed a taxi to the ferry terminal in Ceiba. Unfortunately it was dark and raining so not much to see. But we made it go the island by boat! A great way to start a beach vacation.
I had the unique experience to represent Severn Sailing Association at an amazing women's keelboat event hosted by the SDYC. The event was amazing and the competition and comradarie unparalleled. My SSA teammates and I had a blast and we sailed really well, placing 9th overall and winning the last race of the silver fleet finals. Hoping I get to do this again next year!
Huge thanks to Drew and Micheal-Anne for taking us home by powerboat on a chilly but calm mid-January evening. A fun way to get a day in the water!

It was not looking good for sailing when I arrived at the club but a very light. breeze had filled in by start time. The first race was a drifter but a nice southeasterly filled in for the rest of the afternoon. We got in seven races for the ILCA 7s and six for the ILCA 6s. Looking forward to racing next week!
A SSA New Years tradition... racing up the Severn River is a great way to celebrate the new year. This year was unseasonably warm and started off with great breeze. Unfortunately the breeze deteriorated and I was unable to finish the race and had to be towed back to the club. That is ok though. It was still a great first day on the water. We had a great social after sailing and had a front row seat for the delayed Annapolis NYE fireworks. A great start to a new year!
He had a beautiful afternoon for a quick ride to the boat ramp on the winter solstice. Putting her away for the season. Looking forward to fun fishing adventures next year!
We had a fantastic time aboard our friend's yacht, Escape Plan, for the most festive night in Annapolis. We were nice and cozy with snacks and cocktails in hand inside the headed bridge of their trawler. Definitely the way to do the parade! Until next year...
