A day in life (in a boatyard ) / Sailing Aquarius
Living on the hard is by far the least pleasant part of living on a boat. It’s like doing a mini-remodel of your tini-house, which hopefully is only necessary every 2 years. One also needs to remember that you have to repair/upgrade/or service all the systems.... WaterMaker, Engine, GenSet, BowThr...

Starting Season 3! 7 day sail to New Zealand / Sailing Aquarius #49
We left Tonga as hurricane season is coming soon. Possible safe destinations - Australia or New Zealand. We chose latter.

Strong winds and a letter of warning in the Cook Islands
Our feelings about the Cook Islands are a bit torn. Aitutaki was beautiful! So was Rarotonga, but because of all the bureaucracy we did not see much and basically just wanted to sail away from that port as fast as possible. We even got a letter of warning, since we did not send an email before we a...

Biggest coral island in the world or “the ROCK” Niue / Sailing Aquarius #47
This island is a treat for us - it's so different from what we have been seeing for a while. Very different and unique - no sandy beaches to pull up your dinghy, just a semi automated lift (!) and many caves and lots of rocks! And a bar that is open only on Sunday's afternoons and you serv...
When the water maker fails!!! Sailing Aquarius “Water Maker 101”
Aquarius was at her last stop in French Polynesia, and her Dessalator water maker started making saltwater! Would we head back to Raiatea, or move ahead without a water maker. At that point Ken thought it was time to learn more about the water maker, and thought we would take the rest of you alon...
Tricky navigation and the most narrow pass ever, into Maupihaa atoll, Ep 34 Hilma Sailing
According to the charts the water around Bora Bora were to shallow for us but we wanted to go to the other side to snorkel so we tried anyway.The tiny passage into Maupihaa was scary! 1 knots one way, 11 knots the other way but we made it and we loved that atoll.

Cook Islands: Palmerston & Beveridge Reef / Sailing Aquarius #46
You will not be disappointed as Aquarius visits Palmerston, part of the Cook Islands in the middle of the Pacific Ocean.

French Polynesia MAUPITI or “fixing your boat in exotic locations” / Sailing Aquarius #44
Maupiti is one of the less visited islands in Society Islands group with a tricky narrow passage to get in & out. As we came with little expectations for this place we had a pleasure to discover local artist and visit his exquisite house. We also did some silly things and had to do repairs on Aq...

So many sharks in this atoll! Ep 30 Hilma Sailing
Toua is an atoll north of Fakarava and a small piece of heaven, except for the sharks, if you don’t like to swim with them all the time. Our next destination was Tahiti where Lisa turned 30 and we were looking for a good place to leave Hilma during our upcoming visit to Sweden. We hope you will e...
