032: Kids try Spanish School and Dress up for ‘Day of The Dead’

Without other boat kids around and a repair list as long as our boat, we decided to try out the local Spanish schools for the winter so that the kids learn a bit of Spanish, meet some other kids their own age and we can crack on with our jobs aboard. We also celebrated The Day of The Dead " Di...

Rat Onboard! Horror of Finding a Rat on our Boat – Liveaboards Nightmare 030

Yup, we had a rat onboard within days of docking in Almerimar Marina. We tried using traditional traps, homemade traps, glue, duct tape and even Oscar, a Patterdale terrier - a proven ratter, but nothing worked. But if there's one thing worse than a live rat onboard, it's a dead one. It ...

026: Sailing and Anchoring in Ibiza and Woody tries Clickbait to Boost the Video Blogs!

Marinas in Ibiza are expensive so the only way to get water is to pay for a 30 minute slot and go like crazy to get everything plugged in, charged up, filled up and washed down! The shops are further away so that means a trip on the dinghy and a walk up the hill, and when you've got lot of gues...

025: Sailing from Tunisia to Sardinia and the Balearic Islands, to enjoy a Sunset in Ibiza

Kelibia was the last port of call in Tunisia. Although it was sad to leave Tunisia, we weren’t quite as sad to leave behind the smells and flies of the fishing port.

It was another one of those epic passages with a ripped headsail and near misses with unidentified vessels in the night - a bit disconcerting with reports of refugee boats around the Libyan coast.

In the last blog we left Woody to look after the boat in the Aegina and get on with maintenance work while we returned to England for a few weeks. It's great the kids are curious and want to learn about maintenance work on the boat, but obviously it slows things down a bit. So with the family...
