EPISODE 237
In this video, we transit from Mexico through Nicaragua, where we spend an unusual Christmas. We cross the notorious Papagayo winds, we have to work on the engine in the middle of the night, and we test out our storm sails. Finally we arrive exhausted in Costa Rica with an amazing downwind sail, and meet up with our old friend Patrick!

Sampson Boat Co
I’m on a mission to rebuild a 109-year old English sailing yacht called Tally Ho. Designed by Albert Strange in 1909, she is a well-known and important historic vessel – but after many adventures she was left in a remote port in Oregon to rot for decades, despite some valiant attempts to rescue her. I bought her and moved her to the Olympic Peninsular earlier this year, and am now starting to rebuild her from the keel up. Eventually I hope to sail her back to the UK.
