Sailing to a DEAD END! [Ep136 RED SEAS]
Good things in life come to those who wait. Or at least to those who search long enough to find them. We've been sailing our 47' catamaran for almost 4 years and we've seen our fair share of amazing places in this world but even among the highlights there are some that stand out from the rest - the truly unique little corners of paradise. And in this episode we're in search of one of them.
We set out from Rangiroa, an island in the north of a string of atolls in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, with light wind forecasts expecting us to motor almost the whole way. But after a freak storm wreaked havoc, damaging our beloved Indioko, we find ourselves motoring dead into high winds and raging seas and we are determined to discover our latest little slice of heaven.
Join us this week as we complete our sail to the blind pass and fix our boat before exploring the underwater world in this absolutely stunning part of the planet.

Our BOAT just got BIGGER!
We are sailing on a tight budget after our huge refit earlier this year and so when it came to transforming the cockpit of our Leopard catamaran, we had to get a little creative. I wanted to replace all our cushions and Iain wanted to transform our table, but we don't have the thousands of doll...
