We are replacing our old Yanmar engines with two brand new Nanni N4.50s. After a battle with customs in Tahiti, the new engines finally arrive on the dock and we are so excited to unbox them. We use a chain hoist on our boom to lift one engine onto our boat and luckily it fits through the hatch! The only downside is it doesn’t really fit on the engine beds but we’ll figure it out somehow!
Back story: After melting one of our engines on our Pacific crossing last year, we've been sailing around French Polynesia for 11 months without it. Now we're doing a double engine repower on our 20-year-old catamaran and we're doing all the work ourselves, while we're still in the water. Watch this space as we figure out what it takes to become marine mechanics on our very own floating home!

DEADLY WEATHER coming right for us!
Facing an incoming super El Niño cyclone season in the South Pacific, Iain and Brioni navigate their Leopard 47 across the Fijian lagoon to secure Indioko before departing on a flight to Athens.
We JUST got here…and now we HAVE TO LEAVE!
We sailed to Fiji (from New Zealand) just a few months ago after a massive boat refit but it hardly feels like we've had any time at all to explore these beautiful islands and already we're thinking of leaving. Sometimes plans change and sometimes the weather dictates the way that we shoul...
Could we LIVE HERE? (Hidden Fiji caves!)
In all our travels, we have always loved exploring new places and visiting islands that are hardly touched by tourism. We've been incredibly lucky to have experienced some wonderful places around the world but this island is a bit different. Have we actually found our new home? Should we think ...
SHE FOUND HER CALLING!
Iain and Brioni Cameron of Sailing Red Seas navigate their Leopard 47 catamaran Indioko on an overnight passage from Totoya to Kadavu, Fiji, freediving with giant pelagic manta rays in the Great Astrolabe Reef.
WE DON’T KNOW what’s next!
Life on a boat always throws us surprises - sometimes we make plans, and sometimes they get thrown back in our faces. We spent weeks sailing against the trade winds to reach the furthest corner of the remote Lau islands in Fiji and had an absolute blast exploring the villages and beaches we discover...
