Cruising down the ICW on a sailboat, we head through the Alligator river canal and anchor at Pungo Creek for the night before sailing on toward Oriental, NC, one of our favorite cruising towns. We wait in Oriental through a storm and check out a Christmas boat parade. Good times cruising overall.

In celebration of our 100th episode, we've put together a look into life behind the scenes while filming a sailing YouTube channel. This is all the bloopers, outtakes and funny moments from more than 4 years of sailing around the world!
A little gift from us to you. Thanks for being on thi...
Sailing to Indonesia seems like a fantastic way to celebrate Episode 100!!! Can you believe we've come this far??
This was no ordinary passage either. After leaving Australia, we had to do some technical sailing, adjusting to wind shifts by trying different sail combinations as well as our s...
The passage from Cairns to Thursday Island marked the end of our seven months of sailing in Australia. And what a seven months they were!
In all, we sailed 2,300nm in Australia and this leg had some of the best sailing yet. There was lots of wind from deep behind us, which allowed us to use only ...
Is there a better way to celebrate your birthday than island hopping and sailing around the Whitsunday Islands in Australia? I'm not sure there is!
Our mad dash up the Australian coast continues as we sail up to the Whitsundays and enjoy several weeks of beautiful beaches, clear water and eve...
You never realize just how big Australia is until you have to sail up the coast. Spoiler alert... it's big!
We started out this leg of our trip with an overnight passage up to Fraser Island. But to get into Fraser from the south, you have to cross the Wide Bay Bar, aka "The Mad Mile.&q...
Sailing around the world on a boat is a lot of work. Sometimes, it's more work than others. We had a stretch of about three months where it felt like we were constantly working on boat projects.
Even after Starry Horizons got a lot of TLC at The Boat Works, we still had to work through some ...
There's a lot to explore on the east coast of Australia and we began by taking the inside passage from the Gold Coast up to Moreton Bay. This was a great way to get used to life on the water again as it had been waaaay too long since we'd properly cruised aboard Starry Horizons.
Our frie...
We love our boat, we really do. But she was over on the East Coast of Australia and we wanted to go sailing on Ningaloo Reef on the West Coast. What to do? What to do?
It was a tough choice (not really), but we hopped on a 3 night dive charter aboard Shore Thing with Sail Ningaloo. And had an a...
Even Aussies will admit, there isn't a whole lot in the Australian Outback. But what is there, is well worth a visit. We hopped on a flight to Uluru and spent a couple memorable days being wilderness explorers.
To start things off, you have to wake up really early in the morning to go and wa...
After our (first) road trip in Australia was over, we spent a couple of days in Melbourne, enjoying big city life and hunting down the incredible artwork in the famous laneways. But in our hearts, we are boat people and we were ready to get back out on the water with a trip down to Tassie.
Pennic...
Our road trip continues as we make it to the absolutely stunning Great Ocean Road. It may only be 151 miles (243km) long, but it quickly rose up the list to be one of the best drives we've ever done. Not only is it scenic, but it's got a great history too as the road was built by returni...
There comes a time when you're just ready to get away from boats for a while. And after a years worth of sailing, capped off by several weeks of projects, we had reached that point.
In order to recharge our batteries, we left Starry Horizons on the hard and set out for a six week tour around ...
The next stop in our Australian Adventure takes us 40nm up the coast to Lake Macquarie. The sail was pretty easy but the entrance into the lake required us to complete our first bar crossing. These can be incredibly tricky but fortunately, Neptune decided to take it easy on us and the waters were ...
For the last year, we'd had one date circled on the calendar: New Year's Eve in Sydney Harbour. And we finally made it...
David's family flew halfway around the world to join us for the holidays and we spent several weeks together exploring Australia. We got out to visit the (very ...
We're heading off to a tiny island off Ecuador known as the poor mans Galapagos. We’re ready to set sail but...

Our Tongan Haapai Group adventure continues as we sail to two new islands: Uoleva and Tatafa. We get to do a bit of racing, a bit of fishing and a bit of exploring. Pretty much everything you want to do in the South Pacific!
Along the way we learn up close and personal that nature is never at res...
The time had come to explore a new part of Tonga: the Ha'apai Group. It's about a 60 mile sail to get there and along the way we got to encounter those magnificiant reason we came back to Tonga: humpback whales!
We got to experience several 'heat runs' which is where male humpb...
With Starry Horizons back on the mend, we set out to explore a place of the Vava'u Group of Tonga we had never been before: Kenutu Island. This is one of those absolutely picturesque South Pacific Islands. It's surrounded by a reef, uninhabited with a gorgeous beach, palm trees everywher...
After a long awaited return to Starry Horizons in Tonga, we immediately started re-commissioning her and discovered a serious problem. The anodes on our saildrives had completely disappeared and the saildrives had started corroding!
This was something that required immediate fixing and fortunately...
We've been really busy with non-sailing related stuff, but Jordan found some time to do something he's always wanted to do - take the boat out for a solo sail.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------...
This week we sew a new bimini cover with sunbrella fabric from Sailrite, then go for a sail down to Pine Key (Beer Can Island) to get some kiteboarding in! It's been a long time since Jordan's been able to kiteboard so he's really happy to get back out on the water!

Happy New Year! This week we squeeze four people overnight into a 27 foot boat as we sail out to the mouth of the manatee river during a cold front. We catch and cook our dinner that night and sail back upwind to Tampa in 20 knots.
-------------------------------------------------------------------...
This week we finish up our Sailrite mainsail kit and get it on the boat. We then rip out some more carpet headliner. Finally we get back on the water and motor down to Beer Can Island to clean the bottom of our boat while a pod of dolphins follow us. On the way back we unfurl our new sails for the f...
