Sailing makes me happy! (Sailing Learning By Doing Ep131)
Sailing is a very satisfying way of moving from A to B. It can be very frustrating and compared to other new forms of transport very slow. It gives me a very nice sense of achievement though, arriving somewhere new, knowing that I harnessed the wind and wo...
New Mainsail! Measuring my boat. (Sailing Learning By Doing Ep130)
Measuring the boat for a new mainsail was a pretty daunting prospect for me as a first timer. A lot could go wrong, like an expensive new sail turning up in Indonesia and not fitting at all with no way of changing it. The say is, "measure twice, cut once" ...

We nearly DIED! Motorbike drama in Flores Island, Indonesia.

Sailing with the WHALES. Sailing Learning By Doing Ep120
