We'll know we are cruising when....

We'll know we are cruising when.......

• The waves on the Gulf rock us to sleep
• We can see both the sunrise and the sunset from our front door
• We are rarely more than 40 ft apart from each other
• We share sundowners for the first time with other cruisers
• We catch our first big fish and cook it on our stern rail grill
• The dolphins are playing in our bow wake
• We don't have to go to work
• We have to take turns keeping an anchor watch all night
• Our to-do list for the day is get water and ice
• The diesel dies when we really need it
• Our wardrobe consists of swimsuit number 1, 2, and 3
• We are eating fresh fish, plantains and breadfruit
• We are going to bed when the sun goes down
• When our latitude is south of 32
• People actually want to come visit us during the winter
• We haven't gone over 15 mph in months
• Dinner conversations are diesel engines, good anchorages, boat rigging and weather reports....always weather
• We are busy kedging off our first sandbar
• We say "Let's go home", and we mean the boat.
