Our mast related issues have been going on for over 18 months now, and were previously detailed in the two mast videos we shared in 2022. A few months ago we announced that Travelopia / Leopard Catamarans had made the decision to supply a new mast, rather than repair the old one. While we weren't given specific reasons for why or how they came to this decision, we trust that it was made with good intentions given the people involved.

After some shipping and port delays trying to get such a large item to Trinidad, I got a phone call one day to say that the new ZSpars mast had left the port and was on its way to Power Boats with a police escort!

A big thank you to Ant and the other staff from Leopard / Travelopia who helped facilitate the organization and delivery of the replacement mast. Than you also to Salisha (Manager at Power Boats), the PowerBoats security staff, crane driver and of course the guys from JS Marine, all of whom assisted with the delivery and unloading.

Escaping the Boatyard – I Hiked Trinidad’s Jungle Barefoot

If you've ever stepped foot in a boatyard, the first thing you'll notice is how industrial they are. Dusty. Noisy. For months I've been working on our boat - grinding, sanding and getting covered in more epoxy, gel coat and antifoul than I care to think ab...

Whether it's the bows of our sailboat, the edge of a pool or a rocky jungle ledge, our boat dog Rose will sing, bark and give you "the look" until you throw a ball or stick for her to go in after! Being around our "little Aussie Shep", it becomes clear p...

Teaching the Dog to Cheers!

There's no denying our Australian Shepherd dog Rose is pretty smart, with a big personality and plenty of attitude! As a result she often feels less like a boat dog, and more like having another human aboard. Thanks to our new crew member Lukasz, she's d...

The Trinidad You Should Get to Know!

In our opinion, Trinidad's natural beauty is massively under rated! When it comes to Caribbean jungle and waterfalls, and in fact jungle landscapes in general, it's world class. When our new crew member Lukasz arrived in Trinidad to join us living aboard ...
