BOAT ACCIDENT: A first hand tell-all interview after surviving the dismasting of a sailing boat off Coffs Harbour, Australia.
We're stuck in COFFS HARBOUR... with coronavirus lockdowns happening all around us, we're getting some serious boat jobs done. We also visit the BIG BANANA!
We launch our brand new tender a magical spot - Pinta Bay, Hawksbury.. We also find an eerie skeleton.. Marine Rescue pay us a visit.
A Melbourne couple has taken that plunge - buying a yacht and sailing far away from the restrictions which plagued their state.
WHALES AHEAD!!!!!! We almost hit a humpback whale. FAR OUT. What would you have done? Also, on a positive note, after 90+ hours at sea, we arrive into Sydney.
We're sailing our 50ft yacht 'Tucana' from Melbourne to Sydney over the next 4 days... but as we do, we encounter 4 dramas.
WE BLOODY DID IT! We depart Melbourne on Tucana, our new 50ft yacht, AKA: Our new home! We say goodbye to our friends... former colleagues.
We finally reconnect with Tucana after a 2-week covid lockdown in Melbourne. During the fortnight, we managed to get out of Melbourne.
72 hours before we were scheduled to depart Melbourne, the entire state of Victoria, Australia was placed into a 7 DAY snap lockdown due to covid outbreak.
On this episode, we sail from Hobart to Sydney on an incredible 50ft X-Yacht, 'Son Of Sam'. Tucana gets a new anti-foul, stanchions and backing plates.
On this epic episode: Our rigging is taken away and getting replaced, John modernises our water pump, we get new flexi solar panels, the winches are serviced.
This is our backstory.. and how we found Tucana - our dream boat! We also experience our first hail storm and we get vinegar in our water tanks. Yuck!
Yep. We did it. We purchased a yacht and we plan to sail her around Australia. Join us on this crazy adventure.
