The Wedding Planner
It was early Spring and we received an inquiry about a wedding aboard Moment. How exciting and flattering to have a couple choose us to celebrate their special day – and it would be the first one! The event would be super low key as the couple – two lovely women from Texas – wanted it to…

Screech and Squeal
Since we did so much work prior to arrival, the jobs that needed doing over this past month were quite minimal in comparison. The latest upgrades include finishing off the galley with a beautiful set of Cutco knives (goodbye mismatched hand-me-down brother’s college apartment set!) and installed a wine and champagne glass rack to more…

Vegan from Virginia to Provincetown

Provisioning for trips like these is…

July 2016 Maintenance and Mishaps

However, the more we are in motion, the likelihood for repairs, maintenance, system failure, and problems at sea are greatly increased. So what happened over the last month?

Provincetown 2016 Blessing of the Fleet
For over sixty years, Provincetown has honored its Portuguese ancestry with an annual Blessing of the Fleet and weekend-long Portuguese Festival. Centuries ago, before a fleet departed on a long and possibly dangerous journey, the Bishop blessed the vessels and crew.

Bahamas to Provincetown Passage, May 2016
After two weeks of enjoying Bahamian Cays, warm waters, and beach side campfires, it was time to get serious and sail offshore for New England. Once our last guest left on the morning of May 17th, we got Moment reprovisioned, fueled, and prepared for our 1000 mile trek to Newport, RI. Our crew members for…
