EP 191: Boat Work | It's NOT always FUN in the SUN!
We got Lady Africa sanded and wiped down for a new fresh coat of anti fouling. She looks like the day we launched her in South Africa again. I did some touch ups in the cockpit. We serviced the sail drives, had a little bit of a contaminati...
This week we leave the pearl farm and sail to Garumaoa the sleepy little village on Raroia. Kieran declares his love for coconuts and I go on a mission to save our mates hat that had flown overboard. When the hat is rescued and I’m safely back on the boat the coral head watch continues. The little v...
EP 190: Man vs Prop | Boat Work and Yacht Maintenance
We got hauled out.. which means boat work needs to commence. We were not looking forward to any of this but had to get it done. Ricky was in charge of the outside and I was in charge of the inside. (Spring cleaning and touch up paints) First tas...
EP 189: We got HAULED OUT! | How Bad Does She Look After 7000nm ?
It was time for us to haul out! Now.. if it wasn't for our flanges on our sail drives.. we probably would not have hauled out at all.. but since we have to do those and we can't do it in the water.. (we attempted that.. i...
This week we finally get to explore the beautiful Raroia atoll in the tuamotos, French Polynesia. We dingy to the beach and discover an absolute paradise. It’s just us and our two other buddy boats that are here, otherwise we are completely by ourselves. But ouch! The corals are bad on the island, K...
This week we start sailing to the Tuamotu islands, and it’s a race with our two friends to make the slack tide of the atoll in Raroia. Sailing with two other boats that are both faster then Merewether, we have to push her to the max to keep up. This makes for an uncomfortable sail. The constant spl...
This week we are finishing our dinghy repairs and heading out on the next leg of our trip. We are excited and nervous for our first overnight passage on Dauntless and are looking forward to taking on this first! If you haven’t noticed, that is our theme for this month and we couldn’t be happier with...
This week our Pacific crossing continues on a little happier note, we sail through the Galapagos Islands and go for a proper swim in the ocean. After beating into it for over four days, unable to have showers, cook properly we finally reach the tradewinds and boy are we happy! Life on the ocean cont...

This week we continue our Pacific crossing, on a little different note, Kieran is noticeably tired and the sail has gotten to him. We head south towards Ecuador in search for the beloved trade winds but stumble across some real problems. On day 5 a squall hits, Kieran reefs the sail when I spot a ve...
This week we explore an unknown town for us, Panama City. It is truly remarkable to discover new cities and the histories behind them. We pinch ourselves every time we get to see a new place, we love every minute of it.
After completing much preparation we embark on what will be one of the biggest...
Wendy receives her glasses and sees her surroundings clearly for the time. This is what happens when people from all over offer random acts of kindness. Thank you Daniel, Dale, Andrea, Paul and Peter whom have together paid for much of her prescription glasses. She now see the world with eyes wide o...
While my boat is going back in the water after a successful haul out, another boat is lost due to the extreme weather conditions here in Cape Verde. Sailing up the Sao Vicente Canal is not easy. Especially when the weather forecast is forty knots and up. It's a sad ending to a beautiful sailboa...
This week it's finally happening, we are going through the Panamá Canal! We get a bit nostalgic and realise we have been sailing over 7 000 NM, from Ios in Greece where we started a little under 2 years ago, to Colón in Panamá. After our some what hectic sail out of the Mediterranean, we sailed...
When hauling out here, you have ten days included in the price of the haul out. Sidney, my local naval engineer is convinced we will be done in seven days. There is a lot to do in that time. Sanding of the hull. Rudder preparation. Epoxy filling in rudder mold. Curing and sanding. Painting epoxy pri...
This week we head into the beautiful Shelter bay marina to finally install our Hydrovane, and a few other maintenance jobs that one has to do owning a boat. In the 30 + heat we put piece by piece together and Kieran drills several hols in Merewether, not a task he enjoys. We stumble across an issue,...
Nearly ready to splash, we make a last minute decision to drill a huge hole in our boat!!
In this episode, Nandji is getting closer to splash day. The major keel work is complete and the bottom has been painted with a barrier coat ready for anti fouling. With only 5 days until splash day, we decid...
This week we tighten our Dyneema rigging and explain some of the unique features of our sails and rig while under weigh to our next destination.

This week we say goodbye to our beloved Bocas del toro, we have stayed for almost 2 months and we have loved every minute of it but now it's time to continue. Having 5-6 knots of wind coming out of Bocas we decided to try out our spinnaker for the first time! We don't have all the tools to...
We are back in time for May Day celebrations. Back in Mindelo! But the police have shut down beaches to keep crowds from gathering for barbecues and have s and restaurants must close at 9PM. So the parties come to our boats. But during the week, it's all work. we haul out Peter's new boat ...
This week we take you for a ride, we show you our favourite spots on one of our new favourite islands and we do it on push bikes! We have been in Bocas for some weeks now and it's safe to say: We LOVE it here, and we want to show you why. Haven't biked in years we felt like kids riding for...

This week we continue to explore Bastimentos and Red Frog, we make a spontaneous decision and follow our friends to a bar cave! Not really knowing what to expect we follow them, we take Ralph our dingy and drive a couple kilometers into the depth of the jungle. Realising there were carnivore bats, a...
