Summer is here in Australia and we take to the water for some fun in the sun. The only way to fully make use of "Synergy" this summer is to make sure the engines are fully serviced and ready to go. The simple task of an oil and filter change can turn into a major undertaking and I learned...
It's only when you have time to spend time with family and friends that you realise the value of an owner built boat. The satisfaction that we built the boat as a family and luckily there is always things to ask family to help fix whilst underway made this week's trip with our daughter Ell...
It's one thing to "Build A Catamaran from scratch" , it's another to make her shine, the job of final polishing a Catamaran of this size is a considerable task and it can only be done in small chunks. As Janet takes on the task, I am finishing off one of the most important self ...
Perhaps the most satisfying part of a boat build is seeing this come to a finish point.

Boating can be the most pleasant experience on earth, but when the sun goes down, and the anchor alarm goes off, that's a whole new world. The midnight worries take over, the experience can rob you of sleep and turn boating into a whole different experience.

After a massive trip to Europe and the UK we were ready to settle back to "Life On The Hulls". The frantic pace of travel, a vast contrast to a beautiful day of sailing. Testing out our sails for the 2nd time was a magical experience as Synergy Spread here wings and traversed the bay. It f...
It's not often that I am lost for words, but the Monaco Superyacht Show almost left me speechless. The location, the display of incredible Superyachts and Craftmanship, and the absolute undeniable wealth that exists in this world was something to behold. We were so lucky to have been able to ex...

As a young bloke I had spent years on Dive Boats as a Scuba Instructor and I never saw Humpback Whales in my travels. Nowadays, it is not uncommon to see 50-100 Whales on any given day during Whale Migration Months. This phenomena is so hard for me to reconcile, how we as a race, almost annihilated ...

With so many elements in this build project it is clearly easy to make a mistake, but this one was almost a catastrophe. Sail design is a part of performance, lets hope we got it right. In the meantime, our friends are gong cruising and we can't, YET.
