Another F L O A T C H E L L A in the books as your #ycasses once again answered the call.
🏴🇧🇸
Boats tied up. Beers disappeared. Someone yelled “Shapowza” and the day went sideways. Massive shoutout to all the legends who pulled up, tied in, and immediately made the anchorage less safe. When the tribe comes together, the world gets smaller, and cruising gets a lot more fun.
Remember, if you’re ever out there in some far-flung anchorage wondering where your people are, host your own Floatchella!
You can throw one anywhere in the world at youngcruisers.org/floatchella. Pick a date, pick a spot, fill out the form. We’ll assemble the tribe.
Keep it weird.
Keep it wild.
Keep it very, very Floatchella.
And a proper salute to @sunchill for supplying the official lager of “one more won’t hurt” and the finest floating Adirondack chairs so that we could all float down the worlds most epic natural lazy river in style! Seriously… if you don’t have one, fix that. You’re not just supporting a brand run by a fellow tribe member, you’re stepping up your game in ways you don’t yet understand. You’re going to have to trust us.
If we missed your tag, reach out so we can fix that 🤘🏼

Maybe the best thing about the Bahamas is that every season feels brand new. New islands. New reefs. New shades of blue. New friends added to the mix. We made it to Green Cay on the edge of the Tongue of the Ocean today, with diving on deck for tomorrow. Not sure life gets much better than this on the water.
Stoked for the @youngcruisers Floatchella less than a week away! If you’re in the Bahamas, set a course for Shroud Cay. It’ll be a highlight 🤟🏼🏴

The Largest F L O A T C H E L L A on Earth is Back!
Exuma Chapter. Shroud Cay. Lock it in.
📆 March 27th (get there a day early)
🇧🇸 🏴
Load up your floats.
Stock the rum.
Pretend you’re only staying one night. (You’re not.)
And if you forgot a float? Relax. @sunchill is pulling in with the floating penthouse suites of the Exumas. We’re talking luxury lounging so elite you’ll forget you even own a dinghy. If your current raft situation is a sun-faded noodle from 2016… we forgive you. Just upgrade when you get there.
We’re heading back to where it all began… Shroud Cay, in the Northern Exumas — the spiritual birthplace of Floatchella.
Legend has it, it started with one raft-up…
One questionable tie-off…
One heroic shot of rum in paradise…
And just like that, a tradition was born.
Ever since that first glorious, sunburnt gathering, #YCAsses have flocked back every year like sea turtles returning to nest — except louder, saltier, and significantly worse at leaving on schedule.
This isn’t just another meetup.
This is the meetup.
The Super Bowl of hip-ties.
The Met Gala of floating chaos.
The annual reminder that yes — you absolutely chose the right life.
Boats stacked side by side.
Music echoing through mangroves.
Floats drifting like confetti in turquoise water.
Black battle flags flying proud.
If you’ve ever wanted to experience YCA at full volume — this is it. Set your course. Tie in tight. Show up early. Leave late. Because once that first shot gets poured…
history repeats itself.
Next up, @classicmara_ in Simpson Bay, Sint Maarten 🇸🇽 in less than 4 weeks! Details coming soon.

Enough messing around in FL. See you guys in the Bahamas 🇧🇸
#bahamas #itsbetterinthebahamas
Just had a pod of false killer whales at the bow saying hi. Made the trip…
3 more days til FL if we can hit this window 🤞
Some mornings the reef gathers like it knows the call.
Join our dive right off the boat to meet the new neighbors. One of those magical mornings down there where everything comes over to say heyyyyyo.

Made it to Lighthouse Reef for Christmas.
🪸 🎅
This whole atoll is amazing. I was expecting a bumpy anchorage in here but it’s calm as can be. Pure magic at the reef too. If you get the chance to visit, go. Merry Christmas, everyone

We float!!!
🇬🇹
Lots of upgrades and lots of delays but could not be more excited to be back in the water and ready to explore some new coastline. These two guys are the best… Geovany and Alvaro at Nanajuana Marina are the guys you want for any project on the hard. Can’t thank you guys enough and I hope to see you again soon.
Guatemala, you’re a beauty and I’ll never forget my time here.

The YCA burgee isn’t some yacht club accessory.
🏴
It’s a black B A T T L E flag flown proudly from spreaders around the world by those living raw, rogue, and wide open.
🏴
When you raise it, you’re not just joining a club.
You’re signaling to the rest of us that you’re out here.
That you believe in the tribe.
That you’re part of something bigger than your boat.
🏴
Fly it loud. Fly it proud. This isn’t just a lifestyle, it’s a legacy. Become a burgee member - link in bio
