Humans are creatures of habit. Routines give our minds and bodies structure. Sailing and living full time on a boat often robs you of routine and structure. Adapting is a must, and finding ways to work in some routine day to day helps keep the balance.

We begin this video with a look into some of our routine. Katy often begins her day with journaling, coffee and yoga. Cooking all our meals is also routine and something Katy and I LOVE to do. We try and get off of the boat as often as possible to stretch our legs and explore a new place. We find a water well on Shroud Cay, capture a fast as lighting humming bird, and then head back to Seawind. All before noon!

Sailing is often one thing after another and after lunch we fold up our dinghy, and sail off anchor heading north to Highborn Cay. Beautiful, brisk sailing and a hearty meal in our new anchorage top off the day.
