After we lost the spinnaker, we really thought things couldn't get any worse. But somehow, they managed! We repaired the bow sprit for the final time after it had broken off the cross bar AGAIN, and we had a sweet moment of victory as we flew our gennaker for the first time and thought we had found a back up plan that would carry us downwind all the way to the Marquesas.
But frustratingly, disaster struck again and we were left with no downwind sail and a much longer crossing that anticipated. We are trying our hardest to remain positive but this is proving to be a real challenge out here.
On top of that, the wind died and we were becalmed for three days. While we drifted in the current, we jumped in for a swim so we could clean the hulls and we tried to work on our engine but the problem is far worse than we first thought.

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...
BOAT UPGRADE everyone will LOVE!
We are making brand new cockpit cushions to transform this area on our boat into something that is far more comfortable and practical...and it's been a long time coming after 6 years living onboard! We just spent all our money on a refit earlier this year so we've had to come up with some ...
Our BOAT just got BIGGER!
We are sailing on a tight budget after our huge refit earlier this year and so when it came to transforming the cockpit of our Leopard catamaran, we had to get a little creative. I wanted to replace all our cushions and Iain wanted to transform our table, but we don't have the thousands of doll...
