Ahoy,
what a great feeling to round Lands End and enter the huge bay of Cabo San Lucas. Of course the commercial circus with tons of jet skies and party boats was swirling around us like flies but Cabo has a few quiet spots as well and we were up to find t...
A long open water passage from Minorca to Carloforte, Sardiana. But along the way, a favorable tidal stream and brisk winds shortens our trip by almost 12 hours, leading to an almost dark arrival. The channel into Carloforte is notoriously tricky and it's ...

We add some new Raymarine i50 and i60 (wind, speed, depth) instruments to our system. These plug directly into the new SeaTalkNg backbone and eliminate the last vestiges of the legacy ST1 system. Here's how we did it.
I was given some beautiful foam that I glued together and cut into new boat cushions. I then bought fabric and learned how to sew by making all new cushion covers!

We get up early to make a long day run to Alicante, Spain. The sailing conditions were epic, and although we were close hauled for the first half, later it was beam-on and fast. What a joy it was!
In our first multi-day sea crossing, we have a great sail... until we reach Italy, and then we come in for a wild ride! All part of the adventure of sailing around the world!
Join us as we look at how we set up for night crossings - safety first! - and ou...
We finally tackle a finicky Fischer Panda genset that's been shutting itself down prematurely. I'm sure some viewers will see too much time spent barking up the wrong trees, but the point is to show how hard it can be to diagnose problems.
We finally head east and north, across a long expanse of Mediterranean open water. It's a big passage, nothing like our short shakedown across the Strait of Gibraltar. We pass through weather fronts and sail during the night dodging shipping traffic.
