Vimeo watchers, don't miss the uncensored version of this one!!

Hi everyone! We wanted to give you a few updates...FIRST! Ok, so today we had Jason aboard again and we got a few bugs worked out with our rigging. She's finely tuned now and we're ready to roll!
Our plans have slid to the left a bit, so here's the new! We're headed south right around the 1st of October, Miami is the destination. We'll anchor the whole way there. Then it's provision time! We'll get the Gecko ready to cross into the Bahamas and then once Nov is upon us, we're headed across with ...

To you! We'd like to give you all such a warm thank you for your support through the month of August. It was a big month, the kids were here...then went back for school, which is always hard. We got some major projects done and are well on our way completing the rest.
We hope you've been enjoying the Patrons only posts, wallpapers and news! We can't wait to meet up with those of you that can make it to the "Patron Only" meet up!
We have some more big news coming soon! Talk to...

Hello everyone! We're knee deep in prepping for the storm that is probably heading our way in the next 24 hours or so. Weather Covers are down (to allow the wind to blow through easily), Taco is raised and stowed and we're working on securing the sails, etc today.
Is it scary? Umm...We're in a pretty sheltered location far from any inlet which was the plan for hurricane season. Concerned would be a better word to use this time! If it were a full blown hurricane hitting us dead on...That ...

Hello everyone! Just wanted to let you know that Season II on Vimeo is now live! I don't believe your current code will work for the new season but it will still work for Season 1.
If you're a $5 and above Patron that has already received your code and you'd like a code for the new, please let me know by messaging me through Patreon. Or you can always email me at lazygeckosailing@gmail.com!

Hello all of you sexy Patrons! Sorry for the delay, Patreon was having some trouble. We're so excited about this video because it marks the beginning of our second season!

Hello Patrons! This weeks "Patrons Only" wallpaper is of the Lazy Gecko itself! She's a 1985 Alberg 37 Mk II. She was built in the Whitby plant in Ontario, she's a beauty! We love her and we hope you'll enjoy this wallpaper of her.

Ugh! Finally! The rigger was up the mast for an hour and a half before it popped free! Good news is that there is no damage and we can keep using it to raise and lower Taco! The one on the left is the halyard in question. It was jammed along the side. As you can see, it's running true now though and thats a relief! The cost of the repair was $105. You'll see more on an upcoming video!

Good morning to all you sexy Patrons! We hope that you all have a wonderful Friday and a great weekend! Today we have a professional rigger coming to the boat. Finally going to get up the mast again and see about this stuck spinnaker halyard. We need it for the trip south so it's time to get it unstuck and possibly replaced with a rope halyard. We've been crazy with so many projects, rearranging some LGS stuff and filming for the upcoming video. Plus we're in the middle of a collaboration with a...

You might see a few changes here and there with our photos. We've been wanting to update a few things for a while now and are finally getting a chance to! We're also knee deep into our projects. Jeremiah's been dealing with a nagging AC issue. It runs but there's something funny going on with it. He's also about to start repairing a few other things on the boat like the step that Kiya chewed. I'm sewing sewing sewing! We're looking forward to getting our little list accomplished and then setting...

Hello everyone! Jeremiah and I would like to thank each of you so much for your love and support during the month of July. It was an awesome month, we did so much and had such great times.

We're also looking forward to having more of you onboard with us as we cruise south during this years hurricane season.

Hey all you lovely ladies and handsome men! We have ZERO claim that we know how to REALLY take photographs but we do get some sweet shots from time to time, we've had requests for us to post them up as a wallpaper. So we're going to do just that for Patrons from time to time! Here's a great shot that we took from the stern not long after we bought the Lazy Gecko. If you have any requests for other wallpapers, let me know!!

Patrons! Thank you so much for your support during the month of June! We've been going and going and it's thanks to you! We were at a marina for a bit to do a few repairs, we've now arrived in St Augustine, Florida and we plan to stay here for a few days to explore the town. We'll soon be heading further south along the coast! You all are in our thoughts every day that we're out here. Thank you again for all you do for us!
