Ships Log

Although there is a lot of great cruising reference material here on My Buzzards Bay (restaurant and marina reviews, cool gear, Dock and Dine, Gunkholes, and more), there are also a ton of stories.

As Chief Story Teller, I love sharing our adventure – living the dream, and introducing you to some of the people we met along the way.

The Ships Log is a chronicle of all of my stories with the most recent appearing at the top of the log book.
