We've sprung a leak! Ep.21
Hi everyone,
This we officially leave the Whitsundays and do the jump from Shaw Island to Scawfell Island. It's much more pleasant sailing thankfully. However, we do need to spend a few days at Scawfell to hide away from 30+ knots before making our next big voyage. Whilst at Scawfell we discover a leak onboard.
Thank you for joining us. If you enjoy please let us know, and hit the like button.

Would you trade a house for 38 feet? #sailingaustralia #sailingwithkids #sailing #swanson
Most people dream of buying a bigger house. We did the opposite. We traded ours for a 38-foot sailboat and set off on an adventure with our two kids. Life out here isn't always easy. There's less space, unpredictable weather, and a never-ending list of jobs. But in return, we've gain...

We dreamed of this life but its harder than we expected
Life on a sailboat isn't always sunshine and perfect anchorages. This week we're anchored at Pancake Creek, where we set off on a family walk to the lighthouse before the weather has other plans. After a few days stuck onboard with two young kids, we start questioning whether this lifesty...
