Best underwater footage yet and we are STILL fuming! – Sailing Ep184

Borneo rainforest burns and we go back in time – Sailing Ep 183

As the Borneo rainforest burns and we go back in time, it adds an eerie pall to Siantan. With SY Esper safely moored, we go on a bike tour around the island where people carry on the traditions of 1000 years. In some places, it's like being back in time, with people using hand tools for farming...

Sailing to find a safe anchorage – Sailing Ep 182

With 27kts of wind, lively waves, strong currents and hazards all around, it took us nearly all day sailing to find a safe anchorage.

Goose wing, or wing on wing, what do you call it? We show you how we sail wing on wing using a polled-out genoa and prevented main (or mizzen). Just as we think this sailing life can't get any better a fierce squall hits as we sail into trouble inside a rocky anchorage. This is a desolate part ...

Three or four metre waves hitting your sailboat beam-on doesn't always make for the most comfortable of overnight passages. But we were sailing, and that's what it's all about! We left the comfort and shelter of Tiger Island (Pulau Macan) on a 180 nautical mile trip north-east to Pul...

Ever sailed to an island that thinks like a sailboat? – Sailing Ep 167

We sailed in for a night and stayed for a week! The only difference between this pristine tropical island and a boat is that it's permanently anchored. And it has trees. And monitor lizards. But let's not get too picky about it... Pulau Macan (aka 'Tiger Island') is a two hour h...
