OUR TRAVELS
Blending our adventures with historical perspectives of Black and Indigenous peoples
Bubista II - Maiden voyage
This blog chronicles our adventures, including the people we meet, information on the places we visit, and the challenges we encounter while on the SS Bubista II - a Leopard 39 sailing Catamaran. As an older Black couple we realize how fortunate we are to be able to live this lifestyle. Along the way, we will also share contributions of Black and Indigenous peoples to their communities - sailing, culture and industries, along with recognition for their presence, sacrifices and contributions.
