Welcome to Waves of Grace!

We have moved from Eagle's Wings to Waves of Grace, a Catalina 42 which will extend our winter ocean cruising grounds to the southern Bahamas and the Caribbean.

Please join us on our adventures! We would love to hear from you via cell phone or e-mail and when you get a minute come on down and visit!

The two gals share a dock at Navy Point. Leaving Eagle's Wings was bittersweet, but new adventures await us on Waves of Grace.

Cape May

Monday, October 12th we decided to sail out of Barnegat Bay to Cape May even though there was a small craft advisory. We left all the other cruisers in the anchorage and headed out into stiff winds and choppy waters. The problem is that there is more nasty weather headed our way with high winds and big waves....oh and that cold weather that we are trying to avoid. We arrive at Cape May around 4:00 and the anchorage north and south of the Coast Guard Station is quite full. We decide to indulge and we get a slip at Utsch's Marina. Steve and Pete can get out to explore, Ranger can run around, and we can all use the great showers. Plus, best of all...diesel is selling for $2.37 here so we fill up. We met some cruisers from Buzzard's Bay and they said they saw a 52' sailboat get knocked over by a 10' wave in an unexpected storm. The boat came back up but that was pretty scary. Oh, NOAA weather had predicted a pretty nice day and there had been no storm alerts. So staying out of storms is our number one priority. Tomorrow we head to the Delaware River.
