Come Boating! Belfast’s Community Boating Organization and the Belfast Free Library are teaming up once again to offer the Winter Adventure Series. The second program, on Tuesday, Feb. 20, at 6:30 p.m., will feature a Zoom presentation by Zoe Couacaud titled “From the Chesapeake Bay to the Bahamas and Back: How a family of novice sailors learned to navigate their first oceanic journey during a global pandemic.”

To register for the Zoom link to this program please go to belfastlibrary.org/events/ and find the listing. Or, register for the Zoom link here.

Zoe Couacaud grew up in Mauritius and Australia and is a documentary filmmaker, naturalist, and educator based in Washington DC. In September 2020 she and her husband, 13 year-old daughter and 11 year-old son embarked on a nine-month journey to the Bahamas. It was their first experience living aboard and their first time sailing the ocean – what they didn’t anticipate was that this long-planned journey would end up taking place within the context of a global pandemic.

The Winter Adventure Series continues Tuesday, March 26 with Dan Miller, the founder of Belmont Boatworks, discussing some of their innovative projects.
