There was no doubt that we’d be stopping in St. Augustine on our way north – it’s been a stop we’ve looked forward to for quite a while. So after a nicely balanced visit to Marineland, we were ready cruise northward up the ICW. But first, the video version: The Cruise and our FIRST Mooring […]

Oh No!! Bridge Closed – And Exploring Marineland, Florida
In the days leading up to our departure from New Smyrna Beach, we hadn’t quite figured out where our next stop would be. And frankly, there’s not a lot of choices anyway. We knew St. Augustine would be a must, but it was more than a comfortable day’s cruise for us – so we’d need […]
One Week Turns to Five in New Smyrna Beach, Florida
We arrived to New Smyrna Beach in thanks to a dinner invitation from a YouTube fan. The marina had fabulous reviews, so we had booked a week at their very reasonable rates of $7.50/ft. We figured a little downtime would be good for us after a span of chaos. It didn’t take us long to […]
Cruising the Space Coast – Melbourne to New Smyrna Beach
After the extended project-packed time in Ft. Pierce and then cruising with crew – we were more than ready for some time just being at home and on our own schedule. So we pulled out of Melbourne after just 4 days and continued our journey north. First, our video recap of our cruise: First Stop: […]
Ft. Pierce to Melbourne with Mom Aboard!
We ended up staying in Ft. Pierce just shy of 2 months to complete our projects. While we loved the city, we were itching to move on the moment the carpenter turned his last screw. Continuing to wait for that moment however was becoming a bit of a struggle, as we had other logistics to […]
Continuing North up the ICW – Boca Raton to Ft. Pierce & the MTOA Southern Rendezvous
I had intended to cover our entire repositioning up from Miami To Ft. Pierce in one post – after all, 125 nautical miles shouldn’t require that much content! Maybe it’s because we’re smitten with returning to cruising, or it’s all still so new to us – or maybe a slower pace does means more experiences […]
Leaving Miami in the Rear View – Heading North up the ICW!
It feels so fricken good to be back to our cruising lifestyle! Leaving Miami was a huge milestone for us after 5 weeks ‘living on the hard’ then juggling storing the boat while we pursued our RV trip to Texas. We passed our sea trial with flying colors, and then just like that – we […]
Leaving Miami and Resuming our Great Loop Cruising Season for 2018!
Now that our winter RVing season has come to a close and our bus is safely in storage in Texas – it’s time to get back to cruising! Our MINI Roadtrip took us back to Miami where we had left Y-Not after 5 weeks living on the hard to attend to damages from the submerged […]
A Cat, a MINI Cooper and a Road Trip – Last Bus Stop in Austin and Return to the Boat in Miami
Wow, you blink and it’s over already. That was a quick 6-ish weeks on the road in the RV and the time had come to store Zephyr and return to our cruising season. Here’s our video recap of our last stop in Austin and the road trip back to Florida (caution: lots of cat video!): […]
Decongesting at Pedernales Falls State Park – Johnson City, TX
After the RV Entrepreneur Summit, we knew we’d be tired – big events always wear us out. So we planned ahead and had booked an extended stay at nearby Pedernales Falls State Parks, and didn’t let anyone know where we were headed. We were intending some quality decompression time to catch up on work, sleep […]
