In this episode;
Well Guatemala continues to challenge us as you will see in part 2 of our arrival at the Rio Dulce. We were lucky to have this unique footage to put into an episode.
In times of stress and danger picking up the camera to try and capture the action is not high on our minds. Keeping us and the boat safe is always the priority. Luckily young Braiden was there to pick up the camera and follow the action as it unfolded. It's a little rough and bouncy at times because the action was fast and furious, but he did a pretty good job and thanks to his help, the story you are about to watch is pretty exciting and probably not something you get to see everyday Lol!
Reality TV for sure. It doesn't get much more real.
My audio editing is a little off in the episode because my blue snowflake brand microphone has recorded it's last episode and I have been having trouble finding a new one. Consequently I have had to use the Macbook's built in microphone.
Guatemala is an amazing and vast country with so many spots to explore. We're excited to begin our adventures exploring here, but let's get on with the video and show you just how crazy our entry into the country really was...!
Cheers.

Comment if you like Fresh B.C. Canada Sockeye Salmon Sashimi!
We were given some fresh Sockeye Salmon caught only an hour earlier that day.
I attempted to filet it and in the process made some amazing sushi!
Fresh sockeye sushi sashimi! Yum!
A little soy sauce and a slice of beautiful red salmon! Doesn't get any better

Finally! We've arrived in CUBA and we're stoked!
In this episode we sail from Punta Rucia D.R. to Santiago De Cuba. It was a long voyage with little wind but a great time onboard SA3.
Cuba's Southern side is amazing and we're poised to explore all of it with our Catamaran SA3 as our home base.
Stay Tuned! We have lots of adventures ready to share!
CUBA is EPIC!

What would you do for a Dream...?
Here is a sample of just a few things we SOLD to "downsize". First we photograph the item and then we sell it on Craigslist's
It was a very long process and it broke our hearts sometimes as we said good bye to some of our favourite things that just can't come on a Sailboat, but we think it was worth it.
P.S. WARNING: There may be items you have gifted to one or all of us in past, please know that we enjoyed them immensely and struggled parting with them. They helped realize our Dream... xo

In this episode; We arrive at super chilled out Cay Caulker but northern weather systems warrant we find a more protected anchorage, so we’re off sailing south for Robinson island just 8 miles East of Belize City, but Robinson Island feels like a dodgy and slightly unsafe place to spend the night and so we continue sailing further, searching for somewhere safe to drop the anchor.
At the end of this episode; awesome Drone footage of our anchorage at Commence Bight, Dangriga and then a few short bloopers... our GoPro is voice activated and doesn’t always listen!
Spend an all inclusive week with us aboard our catamaran Saltair3 learning how to live aboard, prepare, repair, provision, check into foreign countries and sail a big cat, or just sit back, relax and enjoy being aboard Saltair3 in the warm and beautiful Caribbean Sea.

We have finally finished blue water outfitting our Catamaran and we are leaving Fort Lauderdale. Lauderdale Marine center is a great marina but the highway is just too close and loud for our liking. We navigate down the gorgeous New River of Lauderdale and stop in the ICW where pick up our broker friend James Fachtmann who has offered to sail with us to Miami. There we will pick up Brad's life long friend Ken Penner who will sail with us across the Gulf Stream and onto Nassau, New Providence Island, Bahamas.

Our goal for this season is Cuba. In this episode we say fond farewell to Luperon and some of our Dominican friends.
We prep the Cat for passage to CUBA, and set sail, with a stop first at Punta Rucia.
NEWS from Saltair 3
The Crew of Saltair 3 Brad, Krista and Cole, are now accepting inquiries into our new branch of this sailing life. We are offering week long stays aboard Saltair 3 where you can learn from what we have learnt, see what we see and explore the way we do aboard our 42' Catamaran with your own Private cabin. Locations and opportunities will vary but this Winter we will be cruising the 2nd longest barrier reef in the world along the coast of Belize and the beautiful islands it holds. Then up the jungle clad Rio Dulce (river) into Guatemala with howler monkeys on the river banks and locals selling their wares out of dug out canoes. An Epic adventure for sure!

St Martin is a unique Island full of beautiful beaches, amazing views, delicious food, capable boat yards, a crazy air strip, and lots to explore!
Come along with us as we begin to enjoy the first Island of the Lesser Antilles chain.

We're in CUBA! But we've got a real Cuban stowaway hiding aboard SA3 and we struggle to get it off the boat! ; )
After clearing Customs and Immigration we were free to explore. A fun Cuban ferry ride later and we were in the city of Santiago de Cuba, and it was amazing. What a step back in time.
Cuba's Southern side is amazing and we're poised to explore all of it with our Catamaran SA3 as our home base.
Stay Tuned! We have lots of adventures ready to share!
CUBA is EPIC!
