One of my lifelines snapped a month ago when someone was stepping off the boat so I thought it best to replace them last Sunday Morning. When I finished, I invited three friends to join me for an afternoon sail with Skylie ll, Wahine, and me. The wind was light, but it was pleasantly relaxing Sunday, which was welcome, as the past few weeks have been high intensity working with sponsors and trying to sort out the certification issue for Wahine so I can take her out of Area One and Tokyo Bay and do some longer distances offshore. More of that in the next episode. For now, have a nice warm drink in hand and sit back and enjoy the Sunday Breeze. Thanks to Robin May for the Sunset Shot at the end of the day

I’m 71, and today I tried to keep up with three guys older than me. Hajiwa-san, Yamashita-san and Yasuda-san are all 75, already beyond Japan’s average healthy life expectancy. And this wasn’t just hanging around the boat. They rowed half a kilometer offshore, measured and worked on the rigging, ...

The typhoon had passed, but its tail was still blowing through Buren Bay.

Today was my first chance to get out to Wahine, anchored about half a kilometre offshore, t...
How Remote Japan Survives Typhoons Together #japan #typhoon #longevity
I’m not in Okinawa. I’m in “Typhoon Alley” on Amami Oshima—one of Japan’s longevity hotspots and, on and off for the past three years, my longevity laboratory. A typhoon has just passed, and walking through the village afterward reminded me of something I keep encountering in places like this: what...
