  • Tradewinds Brewing - Octoberfest Update #2
    Looking in upon the Octoberfest we brewed 5 days ago. The WLP820 yeast is still at work. All is looking well, the lager fridge has the temp at 54-55 which is where we wanted for this yeast. Looking good!

  • Tradewinds Brewing - HERMS Octoberfest Brew Day Clip #12

Need Input?

I am happy to speak very frankly about sailing, living aboard, living in the Caribbean, leaving the US system, or any other topic you want to discuss. I have watched many people come and go from boating in the time I have been living aboard, both those living on smaller boats and those living on 110 foot mega yachts. It seems that many people come expecting tropical paradise and are shocked to find paradise is not always what you see in the pictures but includes some mosquitoes, huge bugs, poverty, stray dogs, crime, drugs, and many other problems left out of the tourist photos.
