WE HIT A WHALE LAST NIGHT BUT EVERYTHING IS ALRIGHT | Sailing, fishing & islands S1CH.31
A yachties worst nightmare during whale season is accidentally hitting one as they lay sleeping on the surface in the night.
WE HAVE VERY EXCITING NEWS!
We now have a Patreon page for our biggest supporters. Check it out here https://www.patreon.com/sailingnakama there are some funny photoshopped photos there Soph has made of us.
This week we set sail from the Percy Island A-frame at around 3am and about an hour into the trip something seemed terribly wrong. With water splashing all around us the sinking feeling that we had hit rocks was quickly replaced with the shocking realisation that we must have woken a sleeping whale. A minor speed bump in the grand plan as we are on a mission to find some internet to catch up on our uni work. We finally have some luck with the fish and get a little tuna and a lovely mackerel for fresh fish and chips for dinner, among other things. We hope you enjoy this weeks episode. Slim & Soph xoxo

Slim & Soph - Sailing Nakama
Welcome aboard SV Nakama, We are Slim & Soph a young Aussie couple tryna get by living aboard our tiny retro sailboat with our cat Chilli. We sail the Australian coastline whilst attending university online and take you with us. After putting study on the back burner for years as we didn’t want to sacrifice adventure, we thought why not have both? Fed up with the outrageous rental prices in our hometown, the idea of doing it afloat came to mind. We figured we could scrape by on our tight student budget if we stopped paying way too much rent and lived minimally on the ocean, whilst continuing our passion for adventure. The plan for now, is to keep sailing onwards, keeping Australia to our left and once we're done doing that...Who knows. Our mission is to prove that anyone can do it, you don’t need the fanciest boat or a squillion bucks, just a whole lot of ambition and a willingness to make mistakes and learn. So join us on this whacky adventure! Slim & Soph xoxo
