Believe it or not I am going to get back into posting videos, it is what I do. I found a new technology that allows me to post them directly in the blog and I wanted to try it out. Here you go:
Anyway, let me know what you think. If anyone has some old Bahamas cruising guides they want to sell let me know.
Cheers from the crew of Splendid.

The video worked great for me. Nice to not have to search for it on separate page. Have you tried cheese in olive oil?
love it! Save some hard cider for me, we are out of here Tuesday morning, next stop Key Biscayne! I would love to stop in Stuart but it does not look like we can get under the bridge.

Terry,
We will be heading to Key Byscane as well, probably jump off from there. How much do you draw? If you need to you could come in the cut and anchor in manatee pocket.
Hope your well.

Home baked bread cannot be beat!!!
Splendid looks awsome!, everything is tidy, good indication of good seamanship!, Any word on old girl NAMASTE?,
Alex, What “new technology” are you using to post videos this way? It looks good and of course is very easy to use for all of us
Good Vibes,
Chris, Emily and Barrett
Plans are always changing…. now it looks like we are heading out tomorrow and seeing how far south we can get before the next low pressure moves in. We draw 6ft and the mast with antenna is 68ft. I read up a bit on Manatee pocket but cannot see where folks anchor? It looks crowded, lots of docks and marinas…. looking on Google earth I saw no boats anchored out?
We are going to try for Ft. Pierce, St. Lucie or Lake Worth depending on how far south we can boogie before the weather man says set the anchor. The forecast looks like we will be motoring a good bit.

What a treat to see this morning when I logged on and seen an update. What is with the gray hair, Is the extra crew bringing on the years or just trying to look like a sea captain, the weathered look. I wish i had that problem. Life is great on your end I just wanted to say thanks for the update. I really have missed your logs.
Great video really worked for me all human interest id there it was endearing and informative for potential cruisers. Take care and may you have many years of happiness.
Kindest regards
Rob
