The Master & Commander






I'm Tinker Belle, AKA "Master & Commander" of the s/v Far Niente. I'm a 4 year old, 6 pound Yorkie, Cairn Terrier, Chihuahua mixture. The crew, says I'm a pure bred "SPOILED"! Whatever!!






Rule number one...I do not get out of bed before I'm ready. GOT IT??









Sometimes, when the seas get rough, the crew puts me in this bag so I can BARK orders and not get stepped on.







But my favorite thing in the whole world is "beach running". There are so many cool things to smell, chase and roll in. Plus it makes my lazy crew get some much needed exercise. This is me on the fly. I think I look like a greyhound only smaller....and much better looking.
Most of all I like hanging out with my crew and all the great friends they've made!

Enjoying the Abacos


We anchored off Manjack Cay for several days with our friends Robin & Nancy. Robin & I fished some (he's a better fisherman than I) and worked to keep the sharks from taking our bait. We all walked the beaches and dined together. They introduced us to "Mexican Train Dominos". What fun! There are a few small "tame" Rays there. Diana had great fun feeding and petting
"Reggie the Ray".
