The Perfect Boat Person Is…
…An organized workaholic. That makes us a good team–I’m organized and Allen is a workaholic. Or rather, Allen’s a project-aholic, as perfectly illustrated by our salon table.

When I grow up I want to wander the planet and photograph and write about women. That’s been my dream and today it began.
Read MoreOur adventure began in 2016 when we discovered Gémeaux in St. Martin. We explored the Caribbean, Colombia, San Blas, and The Bahamas, as well as the eastern seaboard of the U.S. In 2022, we crossed the Atlantic Ocean to the Mediterranean Sea and sailed as far east as Croatia and Greece. We explored the coastlines of Italy, France and Spain in our final season and exited the Mediterranean late in 2024. We wrapped up the year with a 21-day crossing back across the Atlantic from the Canary Islands to the Caribbean.
Still enjoying memories of the Med, we are happy to be back in the turquoise waters of The Bahamas. We plan to sail back to the US in May and give someone else the pleasure of sailing on Gémeaux. Anybody want to buy a boat?! It has been an adventure of a lifetime but we "think" we're ready to return to land life in California.
