Chloe found this monstrosity to add to our crew. She says its a good moral booster for the deckhands and calls it “Princess Diva”. We’re anchored off Sveti Stepfan for the night and Princess Diva is already hard at work, although the thing takes up a lot of deck space when it’s aboard. Sveti …
We’re headed north towards Kotor Bay. Chloe’s happy to have some extra crew aboard to spread the deck work out to and from the looks of things, it appears like she’s got a good work schedule set up.
Come to Greece they said. It’ll be fun they said. Not sure poor Kris knew that her trip out to see us included deck scrubbing and being assigned to the 2am-4pm night watch on our passage to Montenegro. But we have a shiny boat and two hours more sleep than we usually …
We took the ferry from Corfu over to Albania and spent the day wandering around Butrint. This archeological site just outside Sarandë has a fascinating history.

We’re so stoked to have Kris finally here. It took her four flights to reach us in Corfu but she made it! That’s the exciting part. The real travel story is that her bags didn’t. But if there’s ever a place to be without your suitcase of clothes, it’s warm sunny Corfu. So we think …
Today we head to the airport, a quick five minute cab ride, to pick up our friend Kris. We did a little more exploring while we waited since the town seemed fairly empty today. The streets were quiet, the air pungent with spring blooms, and the sound of birds echoed through the streets. It …
In case you’re interested, this is what crewing on Bedouin looks like. Most people picture life aboard thinking it’s a fine luxury vacation sunning yourself on the bow trampolines and sailing to exotic locations. And there is some of that. But mostly, as Keith’s soujourn aboard confirmed, it’s also being put on deck duty. And …
We’re excited to welcome aboard our first guests! Our long time sailing buddies Keith & Kathy Williams just flew in to join us for our maiden voyage. Over the years we’ve enjoyed so many adventures on the sea with them, it’s perfect to have them here at the start of our big adventure. So …
