Come back in a couple of weeks for more comentary and videos on the rough weather we endured during this difficult passage...

Our playful sea friends gave us quite a show - check out the video coming soon


The storm trisail which got us through a very stormy night unscathed.


Bill L. steering down 15-20 footers. Even after the stormy night winds and seas still raged.


Nightime right before landfall at St. Georges harbor Bermuda. All crew on deck for a jibe.


Morning after arrival, tied up at the Dinghy Club in St. Georges. Back on land, what a great feeling!

Bermuda is a beautiful oasis.
