Alone in paradise, but trying to anchor in deep water, between acres of rocks, reefs and coral bommies is no joking matter. We weren't going to be beaten because this was the most impressive place we'd found yet in the deserted island group. Tired and fed up after an hour of re-anchoring, ...
Here's a quick walkthrough of our boat and home, a 40' sailing catamaran, pre modifications. This boat is pretty close to what we wanted and needed as a starting platform. The boat's in decent condition as is but we've got a lot of changes we want to make to suite our plan. We...
After a tense night anchored on a lee shore we up'd anchor and sailed to Gaios. There we found a quaint village, went for beautiful walks in the olive groves and even got the bikes out. We thought we'd found treasure on the sea bed (which would have paid for the extortionate mooring fees...

We think we have found Colombia's busiest anchorage! Cartagena de Indias use to be South Americas biggest and most important port. Nowadays it's a convenient stop for cruisers on the way towards Panama. We boat-sit our friend's catamaran, a Leopard 40, and we explore the beautiful cit...
Here is our survey and seatrial video for the Lagoon 410 that we bought. The idea was to document the process we went through to help give an idea what it can be like for others interested in buying a boat. We're a little behind on our video editing but are just starting to catch up. :)

Woke up to find the bilge pump running nonstop. This occurred after all the house batteries had died which had since been recharged and reinstalled. Eventually we solve the mystery and learn tons about bilges. Then the new boat guest and I explore Key West before going over Bahamian Mooring which ha...

It's back to solo sailing. But before that I install my new anchor bow sprit and go off to help my neighbor crew with some guest on his boat Chica. Later I sail south to test out my Mantus anchor at Isla de Lobos. Great downwind sailing to the island and a real opportunity to get a feel of my a...
Join us in the Tuamotu Atolls of French Polynesia as we weigh anchor and sail up the tropical lagoon to a small village in search of fresh food. This is our first video that I (Nicole) produced all by myself...well, not completely. Ryan taught me how to edit with Final Cut Pro and did all the colo...

In this video I talk about what I refer to as your second anchor, which should be an anchor you can easily run out in a dinghy. This anchor is particularly important to the engineless cruising sailor. I also demonstrate how to prepare the rode so that it pays out smoothly while you run the anchor ...

Oxwich Bay is lovely. So I spent a couple of days there and even left Serenity anchored on her own for the first time. Then, after wind from the wrong direction on the first leg, I was then forced to do a bit of motor-sailing when the wind dropped completely on the way to the delightful Lundy Islan...

A lot has happened since we took our mast down - what was supposed to be a simple job, of course turned into something more complicated. It was also compounded by Robi injuring his thumb and not being able to lead our project as easily.
But we plowed through and got the mast back standing again. St...
There are an infinite number of ways to anchor and different factors in anchoring. With a very strong storm system approaching Florida and risk of tornados we take a good look at anchoring. Here are some basics and what I think is the best way to anchor a boat in most situations especially as a live...
