Welcome to our website!

We’ve stopped for a year or so, and are at a dock in Solomons, Maryland, off of the beautiful Chesapeake Bay. We’ll continue to make blog posts, etc., so please stay tuned! We appreciate your patience - we’re very much a work in progress.

We’ll be launching our YouTube channel this winter, along with our Patreon site, ‘Consulting for Cruisers’ services, and Bill Ballard Photography. We’ve also added a simple way for you to make a fast, one-time donation to us if you so desire, via ‘Buy Me a Coffee.’ These donations help to support the expense of maintaining the blog site, our camera gear, and the time spent in photo and video editing. You can donate as little as $1.00 or as much as $5.00, both generally less than a cup of coffee, these days. Just click here to get started. Thank you!

Enjoy, and let us hear from you!

Fair winds and following seas ~
