The Power and Sail Squadron invites all to a photo and information session about a 3 year journey by trawler to the Bahamas.
In the fall of 2012, David Falls and Nancy White fell in love with a 1986 Monk 36 trawler they called Peapod. Recently retired ex-sailors, they had a dream of escaping Ottawa winters to cruise in the turquoise waters of the Bahamas. Little did they know what adventures awaited them as they chased this fantasy, from family emergencies to mishaps on the water and unexpected mechanical troubles.
In the spring of 2015, Peapod finally ghosted into Bimini, gateway to the southern Bahamas. From there to Nassau and the Exumas, there were plenty more adventures and surprises along the way.
Peapod is now up on the hard in Florida, fulfilling David and Nancy’s dream of having a floating cottage within spitting distance of the Bahamas. So now come out and join Nancy and David and learn how you too could do it!
