On the Beach Overnight - We Were Playing the Tides | Distant Shores
We are exploring the Exuma Island group in the Bahamas. Such amazing water colours! We find a shallow place where we can put our Southerly 480 on the sand and try beaching her, then wait for low tide to dry out.
We’ve also been testing out the Varifold 4-blade folding propeller for a year now, travelling 10,000 miles. We demonstrate how it works and do a review.
