One of the best things about cruising as a family is spending quality time in some pretty awesome places with the ones you love.
As parents, we get so much joy from taking our son Josh to destinations we’ve sailed to previously and experiencing them again through his eyes.
Green Island in Far No...
The two destinations in this video – Sudbury Cay and Michaelmas Cay – are the reason we set sail up the North Queensland Coast in the middle of a La Niña summer.
Our goal was to see if instead of the howling southeasters that have prevailed over the last of Australia’s three consecutive La Niña ye...
Well, I never thought I’d be able to say we pole danced up the Great Barrier Reef, but in a roundabout way, that is exactly what we did! 🤪
Our latest video is the third chapter in a La Niña summer sailing odyssey, documenting what it was like to cruise Australia’s North, and Far North Queensland co...
The second part of our La Niña summer sailing series sees us riding the end of a strong wind warning to Fantome Island – an abandoned Leper Colony on the Great Barrier Reef.
En route stuff breaks (or should I say, “ship happens”), we undertake a jury rig, talk safety at sea (from the ‘safety’ of ou...
This summer we've sailed Australia’s North and Far North Queensland coasts.
For context, this is traditionally not the time of year to take this route.
It’s hot and wet, this is cyclone season, and to really liven things up, this was the third consecutive La Niña year, where on Australia’s ...
Want to know how to make – or re-make – boat fridge lids?
Need to replace a galley countertop?
Looking to modernise the interior of an old sailing yacht?
If the answer to any of these questions is ‘yes’ then this video is for you!
The galley on our 1978 Peterson 44, ‘Brilliant II’ hasn’t strayed f...
Famous for its iconic A-Frame shack and a long-standing tradition of hospitality afforded to cruising sailors, Middle Percy Island is one of those ‘must-see’ destinations on Australia’s east coast and a place where many of us have left a piece of our hearts (or at least a memento to our boats!).
L...
Maybe it was all the more sweet because we'd downed tools from our boat refit for a while.
Or maybe it really was one of those 'one in 10' sails that explain why we're out there in the first place.
Whatever the reason, this is what a near-perfect 24 hours of boat life looks lik...
Why do projects on a boat take so long?
Because to get to the thing you actually want to work on, you have to fix all of the inter-connected paraphernalia as well 🤪
It's like that song you learned about the human skeleton as a child... (how the "knee bone's connected to the thigh bone...
I guess now we can add working with Corian to our ever-growing list of boat refit skills
🤪
If you've never used it before (and we hadn't), Corian is composed of acrylic resin and natural minerals.
It's harder than a lot of other materials we'd worked with (think of a cross betw...
It's been about three years since the timber trims were removed from our 44-year-old boat's interior, and destroyed in the process.
Now they're finally back!!
This video contains heaps of tips and tricks for working with teak.
Things like:
* Making patterns
* Cutting angles
* Che...
Boats! If you don't use them regularly they start to break. Well, maybe the boat itself doesn't break but the onboard systems sure don't like a hiatus.
This is one of the reasons (aside from the fact we'd be sailing all the time if we could) we've been using our boat regul...
With the gas disconnected and the stove out, this was the time for us to address the galley area around the Force 10 cooktop and oven.
We wanted to replace the old, dark, peeling teak veneer with something lighter, brighter and easier to keep clean.
Looking at home and commercial kitchens, we got ...
Greg and Emma re-join the crew of SV Kiana and head into Teakerne Arm in Desolation Sound, British Columbia for waterfalls, swimming, campfires and all around summer vibes on our sailboat.
Should Greg and Emma sail to Mexico with Breaking Waves?! Comment below :)
Please see DFO guidelines here for...
Does your bilge pump work? Sinking? Boat alarms Alarms what to fit.
In this vid we look at Alarms, Bilge pumps, Boat safety and electrical circuits. We enjoy the festive season, Cid goes swimming on new years day. The pooches get a starring role. The new format has a shorter intro. Our subscribers g...
Ahoy,
Oh how have I missed that. Hoisting our sails, using the natural forces moving from one beautiful spot to another. Pushed by wind and waves we enjoyed sailing down the Pacific Baja California so much. ZERO performed very well and we were almost flying. 8 and sometimes even 9 knots, in a calm o...
We travel to San Francisco to look at a 1997 Grand Soleil GS 50. This is a slightly older version of the one we saw in Puerto Rico, and is a Doug Peterson design. The DP version carries the flavor of a German Frers Swan, with two separate cockpits separated by a traveler assembly. It's a single...
At the end of our bluewater sailing course, we take a few minutes to interview John Kretschmer about his feelings on modern yacht design. For those of you looking to purchase a passagemaking sailboat, it's good stuff.
