We’ve Gone Global!

Very few things truly leave me speechless, but this one tops the list. One of our followers from the Philippines recently had her grade 4 class draw pictures of Mystic Hearts for an art activity. I was so touched that she shared our sailing with her class and sent us pictures of their wonderful artwork.…

Offshore: Little River, SC to St. Augustine, FL

As most cruisers know, when you have a good weather window, you take it. Paul meticulously monitors the weather (predicted wind and wave heights) any time we are about to go offshore and for the length of time we expect to be out. Days before arriving in Little River, we knew that we would be…
