After finishing schooling in the nearest town, the boys had a go at racing the happy cat on their optimist before more high winds were forecast so we decided to move on further North and discreetly cross provinces...
#kidsonboats #travel #catamaran
We finally set sail away from our winter mooring now that travel restrictions have eased after the lockdown in Spain. The wind is great for our first sail, we don't catch any fish but we do hear a PanPan on the VHF which is...
#prepping #coronavirus #lockdownatsea
We laughed when we watched the "Doomsday Preppers" series about survivalists preparing for natural disasters and economic collapse. Then came the Covid 19 / Coronavirus pandemic and suddenly those prepper families didn...

After a tour of the boatyard, we get down to the gritty task of giving our sail boat a complete overhaul in the cheapest way possible. We do this by doing all of it ourselves with a little bit of hel...

We started homeschooling in October 2017 and have been working on it ever since. It is not easy travelling the world by sailboat and schooling your children at the same time but here we show you how we got prepa...
#boatlife #lockdown #livingonaboat
We’re into our third week of lockdown in the boatyard and restrictions have been tightened even further. At one point toilet facilities were closed and we were even buzzed by a drone.
We’re desperate to do the requi...
#coronavirus #livingonboard #kidsonboats
How is the Coronavirus pandemic affecting us as a sailing family? Well, we're currently in Spain - one of the most severely affected countries in Europe. When you live on a sailboat plans constantly change, it's jus...
#monohull #catamaran #debate #sailingboats
We wanted to sail around the world with our family and nearly bought a Catamaran but decided it was not the right boat for us. There were many different reasons and some of these were confirmed by other Monohull s...
#boatkids #oppieboat #kidshavingfun #spain
Life in a marina in winter isn't much fun - even if it is in the Mediterranean. We're spending our second winter in Almerimar after our attempts to sail the Atlantic last season were thwarted by maintenance and he...
We love sailing and so do the kids so we bought a new sailing boat!
We also found that the local sailing club was more expensive, for 3 kids to sail for 2 months than buying a second hand optimist.
We are so excited about this new toy and hope that it wil...

Some of the highlights from our 2019 blogs. Traveling from Spain to Turkey in 2019. We sailed quite far this year and visited many interesting places so we've had to split this retr...
#boatservice #livingonaboat #wintering
It's the end of the season so time to winterise the yacht. Although we live aboard during the winter months the systems still need inspecting, checking and servicing.. and things need replacing. Winterising is all abo...
#skiinginspain #preppers #doomsdaypreppers #sailinginspain
After an epic sail through the Mediterranean, from Spain in the West to Turkey in the East (and back again!) - through Greece, Italy, Sardinia, Balearics, Aeolian Islands, visiting ancient monument...
Finally the wind turns so we can sail from Sardinia to Spain and Irenka reflects on what life is like on a sailing boat when you are away from land. We arrive in Formentera and rest before filling up with water and provisions in Ibiza and stay there to sh...
We sail across from Italy to Sardinia and manage to avoid lightening storms and then fill up with water in the busy port of Olbia. Finding water is never an easy thing so we are very careful with how much water we use but this is quite tricky while keepin...
#amalficoast #pompeii #sailingitaly
Sailing from the Aeolian Islands of Vulcano and Stromboli we head north to the Amalfi Coast of Italy - one of the most beautiful coastlines in Europe... and hopefully you'll see why. We try the street food of Amalfi Town...
#activevolcanoes #stromboli #sailingsicily
We sail to the Aoelian Islands just North of Sicily and have one of our most exciting adventures hiking to the active volcano on the island of Vulcano.
The first day we take a warm bath in the sulphur mud and t...
Sailing the North West coast of Greece from Lefkada to Sivota Mourtos on the Albanian border, we pick up friends and visit our favourite spots along the way - 2 Rocks Bay and Parga. While still beautiful, some anchorages have become over crowded, dirty and...
We sail from Turkey and arrive in the Greek islands, witness a high speed chase on the sea (possibly a people smuggling operation?) and try to check into Greece. Our journey continues across the Dodecanese and the Cyclades but we don't make it all the way...
We return to Bodrum (from our visit to the Gobekli Tepe on the Turkey/Syrian border - see Ep:048) to find our boat dragging.. and we collide with a Turkish gullet which destroys some of our rigging!
Undeterred we head off inland yet again to the Roman c...
With Turkey's incursion into Northern Syria, the Turkish/Syrian border is headline news at the moment for all the wrong reasons, but when we visited in July 2019, it was relatively peaceful and safe. We sincerely hope the recent conflict finds a speedy and...
