My Catamaran Broke Apart 100 Miles From Hawaii
About 100 miles off Kona, pounding waves broke my catamaran’s rear main beam, leaving the starboard hull hanging from the deck. Keeping the boat together meant repeated trips into the black water beneath it, using rope and winches to lash a broken home back together. Full Catamaran Video: Excerpt...

How I overcame my fear of night sailing
Night sailing used to absolutely terrify me. Now, sitting alone on watch at 3am while Scotty sleeps below, it has become one of my favourite parts of passage making. In this Coffee with Sandy, I’m recording from Sea Moon while we sail overnight from Dubrovnik, Croatia towards Corfu, Greece. We’re 2...

Why Is the Rudder in Front of the Propeller?
Moving the engines aft creates more interior space, but it also places the rudders ahead of the propellers. I would test low-speed maneuvering on each engine separately because two engines are not true redundancy if one failure leaves the boat circling. Full Stream: 📗 Get My Book:
When Grenada Stopped Being Safe
For decades, cruisers gathered in Grenada because it sat just below the hurricane box that shaped many marine insurance policies. In July 2024, Hurricane Beryl flattened Carriacou and turned Tyrell Bay into a boat graveyard, shattering the industry's faith in that safe zone. Full Video: 📗 Ge...
Can a Wave Snap a Ship in Half?
A ship's hull behaves like one enormous beam, bending through hogging and sagging as wave crests and troughs support different sections. Push that steel beyond what it can bear and the hull can fracture, a failure that overwhelmingly strikes long, heavily loaded tankers and freighters. Full Vi...
The 282-Foot Yacht With an Incredible Past
Finished in an Italian warship yard in 1927, this 282-foot yacht began as "Flying Cloud". She then passed from an English duke, to a Guinness heir, and Aristotle Onassis before Windjammer finally made her its flagship in 1969. Full Video: 📗 Get My Book:
The Hurricane You Cannot Dodge
A hurricane does not steer itself; larger wind patterns high above it, called steering currents, carry it like a cork in a river. When those currents weaken, the storm can stall or wander, making its path dangerously unpredictable. Full Video: 📗 Get My Book:
A Great Deal or a $200,000 Disaster?
This 60 year old Sparkman & Stephens yacht has an incredible pedigree, a valuable mast, and a recently reduced asking price. The aluminum hull could still be viable or require a $200,000 replating job, making a complete hull-thickness survey essential before buying it. Full Stream: 📗 Get My B...
The Window Design That Made These Boats Leak
Cooper sailboats can be good performers, but their large acrylic windows were not always engineered with enough frame overlap. Once the adhesive begins to fail, water can quickly enter the boat and damage the surrounding interior. It does not necessarily make the boat a bad purchase, but it creates ...
A Great Bluewater Boat With a Leaky Reputation
This Robert Harris design was built by Ta Yang in Taiwan and earned a reputation as a stout bluewater cruiser.

THE BRISTOL CHANNEL CHANGED HOW WE CRUISE FOREVER #trawler #ukcoast #luxuryyachtlife
We thought the 19-hour crossing from Falmouth, Cornwall, across the Bristol Channel to Milford Haven would be routine. Instead, it changed how we cruise forever. After more than 9,000 miles of passagemaking—including a 2,000-mile Atlantic crossing—we’d become a little too confident. The Bristol Ch...
