Our friends Ben & Joyce came to visit for a short kiteboarding holiday on Finding Avalon. Slight hitch in that plan - the Kiteboards got lost on their flight. With only a couple of days left on their stay t...
This episode has it all except for Margarida. It is sad to see her go but it is for a good purpose, we need some funds for our haulout in Colombia and she is off to work and I am going to try to get some charter work. I think we all know the outcome of that. Kitesurfing as a storm approaches, spearf...

Waaaaaaahhhhooooooo! Amazing what a fresh lick of bottom paint can do. Avalon is feeling pretty and races to Tahiti to mingle with the other boats with her fresh new look. So strange to be at a busy anchorage again - this is the central hub for yachts in French Pol...
After spearing practice on the previous episode Margarida gives it a crack and goes for a hunt and gets a snapper, the hunting couple is ON! I show you our new dyneema lifelines and how to install it.
But it’s not all, watch it and have fun!

Apataki, French Polynesia.
Life’s a beach at the most stunning boat yard that could possibly exist. We’re hard at work with prepping Finding Avalon for the next 12 months of cruising but slightly distracted by all these damn white sand beaches and coconut trees!...
After Tampa Dad left we come back to one of our happy places, the big lagoon at Hollandes Keys.
As we are now in a wave of improvements Plukky had the brilliant idea to do some target practice so we can find out why am I missing a lot of the shots while spearing. Press play and you will find out!

We leave Lifou after an amazing time and...

Welcome back to the remote atolls of the Tuamotus, which we have no interest in ever leaving to be quite honest. This week we unearth our favourite atoll yet, Apataki.
We head from Toau to Apataki in convoy with our mates on sailboat Gea. The sail is that exqui...

After a long patch of rough weather in the remote islands of the Tuamotus, the supply ship hasn’t docked for weeks and the fishermen have been rained off meanwhile. The presence of ciguatera poisoning riddling most of the fish in the atolls doesn’t help our case. ...

Pull out the chess boards and the canned soup; we are weathered in. 40 knots of breeze due to howl through this anchorage, married with relentless rain. I mean, there are much worse places to be stuck than The ...

I leave Margarida early morning and head out for a spear. The trouble is, the sun is not high and it is a bit overcast so I can't see into the water and see the reefs. I stumble upon a reef when a set comes in and my motor dies right at the worst possible time and I get swamped by a breaking wa...
