White Horses & Shipwrecks | Sailboat Story 120
The White Horse Cliffs on the Northeast corner of Black Point don't get much attention. It's a shame because the view from the top of the cliffs is absolutely STUNNING. Lucky for you - we're gonna take you there to see the sights that only a select few would otherwise enjoy. :) The ...
Turning Pollywogs into Shellbacks! – Ep. 115
Sailing across the equator is special moment. It's even more special when you cross with friends who have never done it before, aka Pollywogs! We had become Shellbacks (sailors who've crossed the equator) on our way to the Galapagos way back in 2016. So it was our honor and duty to prop...
Closing In On The Equator! – Ep. 114
The countdown is on! Our latitude is getting closer and closer to zero as we approach the equator for the second time on our circumnavigation! Of course, to get there, we had to work for it. The winds close to the equator are incredibly light, but somehow I managed to actually come up with an inc...
Feeding Mosquitoes At The Russell Family Ruins | Sailboat Story 118
At Hawksbill Cay, in the Exumas, you can find the ruins left behind by a the Russell family. They were loyalists who settled the island in 1785, and it's very interesting to walk the same paths that they did well over 200 years ago. It's hard to imagine how difficult it must have been to ...

Waterspouts and Traffic Jams – Ep. 113
Sailing in Indonesia is always an adventure. If we're not dodging fishing boats and FADs, apparently we need to keep an eye out for waterspouts! We had a couple water spouts form way too close for comfort on our sail over to Belitung. Fortunately, we escaped without any incident but it'...
Gentlemen Never Sail To Weather… but Ben does | Sailboat Story 116
There's a good reason that gentlemen never sail to weather. It's splashy, chaotic, and ungentlemanly in every way. However, since there are no gentlemen aboard our sailboat, we are exempt from this rule - therefore we often beat our brains out as we smash, splash, and crash our way to wea...
Meeting the People of the Forest in Borneo – Ep. 112
In Malay, orang means "person" and utan is derived from hutan, meaning "forest." So orangutan is literally translated as "person of the forest." Orangutans are the only great apes of Asia and there was no way were were going to pass up seeing them while we were sailin...

The Hazards of Sailing in Indonesia – Ep. 111
It's time for some real talk. Sailing in Indonesia is not very fun or very easy. And here's why: There are fish attraction devices (FADs) everywhere, including in extremely deep water, they don't have lights and you can't see them on radar. And if you're not worried abou...
Mangrove Creek Paddle & Blue Hole Cliff Jump | Sailboat Story 113
One of Tambi's new favorite things to do is taking the paddle board out to explore the mangrove creeks that run through many of the islands. So we take her to the mouth of the creek, get her set up on the paddle board, and we follow her through the creek in the dinghy. I've discovered th...
Let’s Get Wet in Bali! – Ep 110
What's not to love about Bali? It really does have it all. We had some good sailing, went and dove a WWII wreck, hiked some secret waterfalls, visited a Balinese temple on a lake, flew a drone over some gorgeous rice fields and celebrated Amy's birthday. All in one week! The only thing...
Gentlemen Really Shouldn’t Sail to Weather – Ep 109
A word of advice. It's perhaps not the best idea to take two ladies on a sailing passage that turns into a tough upwind bash. Especially when it's the first time one of them has ever sailed overnight! Our friend Sara had a flight to catch on the island of Lombok so we had watched the we...
108 – Oh Yes, Dragons Are Real in Komodo National Park
Sailing in Indonesia's Komodo National Park is like sailing in a different world. Here, dragons are real, giant peaceful aliens swim in the water and the coral is so healthy it hides tiny creatures we'd never seen before. Our friend Sara came to join us on this adventure, and what an adv...
It HERTZ That Our CURRENT Alternator Lost It’s SPARK | Sailboat Story 109
If you're going cruising, you have to accept the fact that you'll be doing boat work in exotic places. It's just the way it goes. If there's one thing that I can guarantee you about boats, it's that eventually things will break, wear out, and need to be repaired or replaced...
107 – Spinnaker Sailing(!) to Labuan Bajo
What's this??? Two successful spinnaker sails in a row??? There may be hope for us yet! We were faced with light winds again for our passage down to Labuan Bajo on Flores Island so it was the perfect opportunity to get some more spinnaker practice. It turns out Starry Horizons rather likes ...
106 – Festival Pesona Budaya: A True Taste of Indonesian Culture
The spinnaker came out to help us sail (and race!) in the light airs over to Pasar Wajo on Buton Island. While it was one of our slowest sails ever, I was just thrilled that we managed not to rip the spinnaker... again! Pasar Wajo was going to be a big rally stop as we were invited to the Festival...

105 – An Underwater Paradise in Wakatobi
One of the things we loved about Indonesia was the pristine water and the beautiful coral and aquatic life. And Hoga Island in Wakatobi National Park had all three of those things in abundance. Between going snorkeling and diving, it felt like we spent more time under the water here than above it!...
104 – Sailing Zoomies to Wakatobi
Sailing Zoomies = Starry Horizons speak for sailing fast. Just in case you were wondering... :D We had 380nm to cover in order to sail from the Banda Islands over to Hoga in Indonesia's Wakatobi National Park and faced a "tough" choice. Sail fast and make this a two night passage ...
103 – History Lessons and World Class Diving in The Spice Islands
The Spice Islands, also known as the Banda Islands, are a truly unique place. For centuries, these islands were the epicenter of the Asian spice trade as they were the only place in the world that grew nutmeg. The Dutch and the British fought for control over these islands, with brutal results for...
102 – Quiet Time in Walir
After the craziness of clearing in to Indonesia, we were ready to get back to basics. We sailed over to Walir and found white sand beaches, good snorkeling and great friends. And to us, that's what the cruising life is all about. Oh, and wondering what that crazy thing with the waving arms w...
