SAILING MOONSHADOW: April 2012
http://saillegacy.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 30, 2012. Who pissed off the weatherman? This is the rain as seen from the weather radar on the internet. This is what the rain looks like from Moonshadow's radar. This is what the rain looks like from Moonshadow's cockpit. Ok, it's not exotic, but this is the cruising life for us for the next week or two, while we bet on the "now" side of the "pay-me-now or pay-me-later" boat maintenance proposition. Nice that we're getting all this crappy weather out of the way while we're at it! Ours are...

http://saillegacy.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Thursday, March 29, 2012. After our new dear friends George and Merima had a tearful farewell with this magnificent boat, we drove them to the airport and had our own set of good-byes. Then we returned to Moonshadow, raised her new "battle flag" (thanks again Ryan and Scott! And enjoyed a delicious bottle of Chandon left behind by George and Merima. Soon we'll cast off and let Moonshadow take us south for some clear water anchorages, swimming, snorkeling, and long slow days in the sun. We are getting to ...

SAILING MOONSHADOW: January 2012
http://saillegacy.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Wednesday, January 11, 2012. Ok, so now it's January, 2012, and we haven't sold the house or the boat or any cars or any junk that's in the attic. But we have bought. Some stuff, like these cool foulies! Now hopefully, we can stow them away in a duffle, and one day reflect on what a waste of money it was to buy foul weather gear since we never use them because the weather is always perfect. We do believe in insurance! What a treat we had. Posted by John and Deb Rogers. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

SAILING MOONSHADOW: Discovering Mazatlan
http://saillegacy.blogspot.com/2015/04/discovering-mazatlan.html
Wednesday, April 29, 2015. World navigators possess amazing skills to find their way not just at sea but also ashore. We, on the other hand, found ourselves utterly lost in Mazatlan. Well OK, technically we weren't lost, but after we could not find the Colonial District of Mazatlan, we returned to Moonshadow to regroup where we turned to our FWC. But when we left, we rode the elevator down from the roof. It stopped. The streets are narrow and the building facades are captivating. Another door opens to an...

SAILING MOONSHADOW: December 2012
http://saillegacy.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 30, 2012. Click on photos to enlarge). English Harbour is a place seafarers have been visiting since Christopher Columbus. It is full of history and beautiful yachts. The British thought it was better to keep it for themselves so they built a fort at the entrance. And they stocked the place with cannons. lots of cannons! Now days, they'll let almost anybody come and hang out here. Still, it really helps if you have a HUGE super yacht. This is 289 foot sailing yacht Maltese Falcon. But al...
