AMY JORDAN AND ROGER BLOCK live in Newburyport, Massachusetts. They are pictured here on the “spice” island of Banda Neira in Indonesia. When they met, Amy owned Shango, a Prairie 32, and Roger sailed Great Notions, an Ericson 35. They now cruise together on Shango, a Pacific Seacraft 40. In 2015, they completed a five-year circumnavigation on Shango, and this article results from those travels. Prior to their circumnavigation, they had enjoyed multiple trips to the Caribbean and the Bahamas, and they are in the Caribbean now. Although Shango often finds herself far afield from her home port of Newburyport, if the winters in Maine were a bit warmer and the sailing season longer, she would be just as happy there.
