Trying not to get our cheeks clapped sailing from Tonga to New Zealand. The last leg of our Pacific Crossing, with a stop at Minerva Reef along the way!
Welcome to another update from Elixir's voyage around the world.
We've just reached a massive milestone, halfway around the world. The trip from Tonga to New Zealand is considered the roughest part of a South Pacific Crossing, and we had a challenging we...
Five years ago, I was covered in fibreglass dust, rebuilding Elixir in the UK and dreaming about sailing to empty, remote surf spots in the South Pacific. It almost felt impossible at the time, but tens of thousands of miles later, we’re here and somehow...
Welcome to another update from Elixir's voyage around the world!
We have just set off on the final leg of our Pacific Crossing, from The Kingdom of Tonga, to the North Island of New Zealand.

In summer 2016, Harry Scott and I sailed out of our hometown of Falmouth on Flying Cloud - my 22' wooden sailing boat. For three months we cruised along the lively west coast of France, the rugged north coast of Spain and the colorful coast of Portugal - c...
In January 2020 Elixir set off from Falmouth with her crew three. Max had done some miles, but Harry and Chloe were new to bluewater sailing.
Elixir is a recently restored S&S Swan 37, setting out to circumnavigate the planet. Her crew are all in thei...
After crossing The Bay of Biscay, we made landfall in Spain. Mid-winter lows were rolling off the North Atlantic and battering Finisterre. It was two weeks before a weather window allowed us to continue south.
We stopped off in Peniche, Portugal and indu...
When winds of up to 80mph whip up from the Saraha there are few safe places to be with a boat on The Canary Islands. The high winds, carrying fine particles of dust, are funneled and squeezed through passages of water between islands called acceleration zo...
During March, the COVID-19 pandemic began to sweep through Europe wreaking havoc on day to day life.
Whilst in The Canaries, Spain declared a national lock-down. Forcing us to remain on the boat, allowing only one person at a time to leave for grocery sh...
In this tutorial, Chloë teaches you how to whip rope ends.
In our preparation for sailing Elixir across the Atlantic, we tidied up all the sheet ends, making sure they were all neatly whipped with no risk of fraying.
Chloë goes through the steps of t...
With UK & Spanish COVID-19 restrictions temporarily eased, the crew of Elixir return to the boat after leaving her for 8 months in Tenerife. After nourishing Elixir with TLC, George, Chloe and skipper Max venture out to explore more remote parts of Th...
Unfinished business - We were late leaving the UK and wanted to make the Atlantic passage before the looming hurricane season. Finally in March 2020, Elixir was provisioned and ready to cross to The Caribbean. The only thing that could stop us would be so...
After the storm, a promising weather window was forecast. The small marina on El Hierro suddenly emptied as we, and our pontoon neighbors headed to The Caribbean. It was a mixture of families and young couples and no one certain which island they were goin...
Baking bread in a pressure cooker on the stovetop, instead of using the oven.

Water - 1 1/4 cup freshwater (~290ml)
Yeast - 2 tea spoons of yeast (6 grams)
Salt - 1 teaspoon (3 g...
Sailing and Surfing are two sports, that are inherently difficult to combine. In the latest update from our circumnavigation, we manage to do both. The Grenadines in the Southern Caribbean provide both sheltered anchorages for sailors, and consistent reef ...
The latest update from our journey of sailing around the world involves a period of both sailing and surfing in the beautiful islands of St Vincent & The Grenadines.
After Lily departed, we were joined by friends and helpers of the Elixir restoration...
St Vincents' La Soufrière volcano erupted explosive on the same day we had decided leave the country. After a short sail to Carriacou, we watched towering the ash cloud penetrate into the sky. It was an emotional end to our time in St Vincent, and we were...
In the latest update from Elixir's voyage, we find some fun waves in Grenada, before sailing up to the uninhabited island of Ronde. Our friends Matt and Suzanne (from Hecate), discovered the windward side of the island to be completely covered in marine pl...
On our way from Grenada to Curaçao, we decided it would be a fantastic idea to visit the Venezuelan islands of Los Aves. We were aware of that the country is in a state of economic collapse, leading to increase crime corruption and piracy, opening up a ri...
We're two years into our circumnavigation onboard Elixir, a 1970 S&S Swan 37. It's been an incredible experience so far, and we hope that you can join us for the rest of the journey!

Welcome to another update from Elixir's voyage!
We had heard that San Blas (Panama) was pretty, but we had no idea that it would be this beautiful.
As well as the beautiful islands, we were also amazed at the richness of the culture within the indigenou...
