An epic sail followed by an epic adventure in family. This is what life is all about. A 30nm sail in pretty calm seas with 15kts of wind is what makes my smile wide. Trade Runner gets along so well even though I was running a very conservative sail plan. O...

Owning a Sailboat means WORK. The Trampolines on Trade Runner were getting a bit dangerous but it was a job Id been putting off as it was not going to be easy. We found ourselves in a great spot to finally do it thoughts there was an Aluminium welder nearb...

#sailing #queensland #LizardIsland This week we sail from Cooktown to Lizard Island, a short passage of 55nm. Our first upwind passage since fixing the boat though and I'm interested to see if the repaired Daggerboard will hold. We had 20-25kts all day and...

#sailing #queensland #cooktown Double Rainbows, wind, rain, squalls, rope in the propeller, new top speed, this passage had it all and we loved it all. You feel alive when your heart is beating. Cairns to an overnight anchorage at the Low-Isles then on to ...
