The smell of burning at 3am is never a good thing. But, i guess it had a silver lining as it gave us the push we needed to upgrade to Lithium.
Don't get zapped!

To restore this one, or buy a new one. That is the question. However, with a lot of remote anchoring on the horizon, i think our minds have been made up.
Polish it up anyway,

Well...this isn't really what we thought we would find when we started the 'little' job in the anchor locker. But, that's boats for you.

Currently all our water, whether thats from the water tank overflow or the shower, or the salt water coming through our grease packer (although not any longer! Last weeks vid..), collects in the main engine bilge. Not only is this a recipe for damp and mou...
Bit of a huge one this week, as we get tackle three huge under the waterline projects. We're talking, a new (and less greasy) dripless shaft seal, replacement cutlass bearing and....remember that spinning sound from our prop? Well...after this upgrade, you...
We are back on our 40ft sailing boat, in the boat yard in Aruba, and after a successful week of installing new thru hulls and seacocks, we were shocked to realise we made this mistake..
Shut that seacock!

We are down at Kemp Sails in Dorset, and we are trying our hand at the sewing machine this week. And even better, we are using a pretty revolutionary material, which is made from recycled plastics. Is this the future of sail cloth?
Stitch straight,

We live our lives on one hull, in a 40ft space and at 5 knots. But, what if there was another option? Join us as we head to The Multihull Centre and see what they have going on in the little Cornish village of Millbrook.
Ready to tack,
Becka and Zach

It's not all tranquil anchorages and champagne sailing. Sometimes you have to get down and dirty in the most hidden bits of the boat
Put your marigolds on!

We were currently in Curacao, 75 nautical miles away from where a tractor and trailor was waiting to lift Teulu, our 40ft sailing boat out of the water.
After 5000 nautical miles sailed since last year, it was about time we lifted her out, upgraded some t...

We rock and roll (and sweat) our way from Bonaire to Curacao, in the Dutch Caribbean this week, in order to catch multiple buses, discover the entire city of Willemsted just by needing to check in to the country, and find out what a treat Hofi Mango is.

Last year we bought our 1987 ketch, had no idea what we were doing and ended up backing into our neighbours boat in the marina on our first outing (Beckas fault, lol). Anyway, now, we have sailed 5000nm and ended up in Bonaire, on a boat with not one hull....
BONAIRE! My dream sailing destination. And we made it, we sailed to it and now we are exploring it. And when we say exploring, we mean, road tripping, free diving, kitesurfing, cave diving? Its all go and we honestly couldn't be happier.
Hold on tight!

We have been cracking through our second forestay installation here in Grenada and having been hit by Storm Bret, we thought it would just be the wind and rain to worry about…not the bugs…

This might come as a bit of a surprise to a few of you, but we changed the rig of Teulu! It was a long, hot week in Spice Island Marine fitting it all, but honestly, it looks cracking. Our next (even longer ;) downwind passage will be a dream...

We have arrived in Grenada! The land of other cruisers, bumpy roads and amazing waterfalls. We have some dodgy weather coming our way, but Zach makes the most of it and surfs the storm swell. We explore the island, struggle up hills and soak in this place ...
