Let's Get REAL... Talking About our Ongoing New Yacht Warranty Issues for the FIRST TIME
This video marks the first time we ever spoke publicly about having warranty issues with our Leopard 45, having spent over a year at this point trying to privately work with Robertson & Caine and Leopard Catamarans to have our warranty issues rectified.
After spending 2 weeks crossing the Mediterranean Sea we reached the city of Pula in Croatia. There we were reunited with our belongings after over a year apart and almost having them confiscated. It was a huge relief but also a rush, as we unexpectedly only had one day to load a 20ft sea container worth of goods into our 45ft catamaran!
After waving Pula goodbye we sailed to Monfalcone in Italy where our 2021 Leopard 45 was to be hauled out for the second time in 12 months. We explain why that is and what's been going on behind the scenes with warranty issues, the broker Leopard Catamarans, and the boat builder Robertson & Caine.

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...
Seeing Wild Monkeys in the Trinidad Jungle
During our time in Trinidad our escape from the boat yard was the jungle, a place far removed from the noise, dust and industrial atmosphere. Spottin monkeys was always a source of entertainment, especially for our Aussie Shepherd Rose! #dog #boatdog #boa...
Dog Loves to Jump into Jungle Waters 🍃 #boatdog #dog #trinidad
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 ...
