This is a small crossing compared to an ocean crossing that takes weeks on end. Crossing from the French Coast to Sardinia with a sailboat only takes about 40 hours. However it was filled with beautiful moments, with dolphins and full moons, with sunsets a...
This week, we are in Cherbourg and take the opportunity to visit the biggest nuclear submarine in the world open to the public. Although the submarine was very spacious, we didn't believe cruising the world in it would be so cozy, and the maintenance cost ...
We knew the passage between the North Sea and the English Channel would be a challenge: we got our money worth.
We left IJmuiden and set sail towards Cherbourg, knowing that the narrowest and shallowest part of the passage would be done by night.
We pla...
This week, we answer an e-mail we received from Ása and Einar, an Iceland couple who wondered what we have found works against seasickness.
Before we start answering, we really want to make a point that we don’t pretend to be experts, nor to have all ...
After a great sailing season in the Caribbean, s/v Cloudy bay (Hallberg-Rassy 54) leaves Antigua and heads off to east coast USA, out of the hurricane zone. The passage Antigua to Florida (St.Augustine) took us 12 days, with an overnight stop in BVIs and a...
I’m scared of getting close to the big ships. Which is exactly what we are about to do many times over the course of one day, as we enter the Kiel canal.
I was quite excited to take the Kiel canal on our sailboat, even if that meant a full day of motori...
It all starts with an Instagram comment we received right before we started sailing towards Kiel, that said “oh, you’ll arrive in Kiel right in time for the Kieler Woche”.
We did not know what the Kiel week was, and we were too busy preparing the sa...
WE ARE TAKING YOUR QUESTIONS!!! Ask us anything you've ever wondered about deciding to quit our jobs to go on a sailing adventure with no prior experience of boats or sailing, how it is to live as a sailing nomad, or anything related to boat life in genera...
It took three years. Three years from the day Ryan texted me with that crazy idea: why not quit our jobs, buy a boat and go sail the world, and see where the winds take us!
We had no idea how to sail, knew nothing about boats, and had only been dating fo...
s/v Cloudy Bay (Hallberg-Rassy 54) spent a month in Martinique, which is a delightful slice of France, with a culture of its own, no mass tourism, and many stunning unspoiled anchorages. We had guests for 2 weeks (Teo, Geta & little Darius, 2 years old...
Every new beginning come from new beginnings end!
One week to departure, we are saying goodbye to the life we built here in Sweden. About 10 years ago, Ryan and I left our home countries to come and settle in a land that offered us professional opportuniti...
s/v Cloudy Bay (Hallberg-Rassy 54) had another very exciting sailing between islands, going from Les Sains to Martinique. We started very early, at 5am, and we had all sorts of wind strengths, sun, rain, and clouds. Felt like sailing from Caribbean winter ...
s/v Cloudy Bay (Hallberg-Rassy 54) spent 2 days on the small pretty island Terre-de-Haut in Les Saints, Guadeloupe. Fun day on the scooter, exploring all the beaches and the mellow hills. The small town of Le Bourg is very quaint, and we had the most amazi...
s/v Cloudy Bay (Hallberg-Rassy 54) spent 10 days in Dominica, discovering an amazing destination for the ones looking for active vacations, and meaningful tourism. Dominica has spectacular scenery with breathtaking views over the volcanoes peaks or from th...
10 days to the move, we are getting the boat ready for us to move onboard!
I was secretly hoping that Ryan would have put the boat back in order while I was away, sailing across the North Sea. Nope! It had a lot of work left to do…
Coming home, the r...
Crossing the North Sea between Marstrand (Sweden) and Orkney (Scotland): Check!
Ryan and I had no offshore sailing experience. Now, I do! Last week, I crossed the North Sea with Andy and Mia from 59 North Sailing on Isbjörn... and without Ryan :)
And...
We complete our road trip through Canada. We visit some interesting towns and the beautiful Jasper National Park. We also eat Canada's official food; poutine.

“Never cross with a north wind!” Can you hear it? Pam Wall’s little energetic voice? She repeated this warning many times when we first saw, heard and met her at the Miami Boat Show back in February, 2015. I had no idea that amazing little enthus...
But not our boat, thankfully! Got a couple of close calls though....
Anyways, after two months spent working non-stop on Polar Seal, it was time to launch her! The problem was… Ryan was very close to forget mentioning that he had removed the anodes be...
This week, Ryan is in Singapore for work and I tried to wax the hull of Polar Seal by myself!
Polar Seal hadn’t been waxed in at least 3 years. Her gelcoat started to show some signs of fatigue, in the form of big dark stripes running down the deck.
Th...
Refitting the boat is a major undertaking. We knew it would be, but knowing it and living it are two very different things. It seemed like we always had 4 projects going at once and there was never enough roo to put everything. Not to mention we were livin...
6 weeks to departure!
I knew that becoming a sailboat owner meant that at some point, I would end up with a sanding machine in my hands and a valved safety mask on my face, doing something that I was probably not going to enjoy.
In this episode, Ryan an...
Spencer shows off his winter project. Him and his friend, Walter have been building a stitch and glue sailboat - a Small Craft Advisory Build.
