We gybe the asymmetrical spinnaker shorthanded, surfing waves at 10 knots during the night to the...
Sails, weight, props, and technique...these make the biggest difference in handling and performance on a catamaran. Learned a huge lesson working with a sailmaker to design a sail for our cat, and things don’t go well. Ever wondered what an additional 10...
This week we work on repairing our furling system that has been giving us trouble for some time. While up the mast Kieran finds a massive problem with our forestay. A very vital pin that holds up the forestay into the mast has worked its way loose. I (Isab...
Checking into Curacao in Ep 55 we saw some of the city but felt we hadn't had the full experience. This week we return and spend some more time in the colourful part of Willemstad, called Punda. Kieran discovers a unique bridge that he hasn't seen before a...
This week we explore Klein (little) Curacao, and what a gem we have rocked up to, a flat island with turquoise blue water, white sandy beaches with an old pink lighthouse in the middle. Kieran gets some amazing drone footage of the island (mind blown), and...
We finally arrive in Curacao, the Dutch Caribbean, it feels like we are back in Europe only more colourful and a tiny bit warmer. We put the hook down in a secure inland waterway after our four and a half day crossing from Curacao. The cost gard were on to...
We continue our 5 day crossing from Grenada to Curacao. On our 3rd day right at the time when you start to wind down and the sun sets, our furling system breaks (again!). I have to hoist Kieran up the mast while the waves threw the boat all over the place....
This week we leave Grenada and our beloved windward islands, that's been our home for the last 10 months (!!), and we set sail for the five day long journey to Curacao. Hard to believe that we've been in the Caribbean for almost a year, but with all that h...
Another week on the hard sees us really over all the dirt, mosquitos, sun and boiling days, without that beautiful water to jump in off the back of our amazing home. We tackle the priming, painting and sea cocks to get Merewether ready to splash back in th...
This week we pull Merewether out of the water for a much needed antifouling and general maintenance, with little to no experience we tackel the jobs ahead all by ourselves and safe to say we learn a lot throughout. With very long days, many mosquitos and t...
Cruising down the Caribbean islands we finally make it the whole way south to the southern most island, Grenada. Making short work of the sail we stick down an anchor and make a move to test out our new Gopro on an underwater adventure through an underwate...
Bit of mid week content right here, we go through some of the questions our patrons put to us on life on the ocean. We talk about anchor anxiety, languages, and future plans. Please let us know if this content is what you want to see in the comments below....
This week we get to our very own private island, totally secluded, we have it all to ourselves, the sun shining, white sandy beach, crystal clear blue water and our home is just parked 30 meters away - if this is not paradise what is? But getting there was...
Finally with boarders being easier to cross we move into a fresh new coastline and country that has been just out of reach for the past six months, Sitting in St Vincent peering at these unattainable island sanctuaries has been the source of our frustratio...
Progressing our way south along the windward islands of the Caribbean, we catch some fair winds boosting us around to see the beautiful private island of Mustique before arriving at a nice anchorage. Isabelle suffers from her arch nemesis the dreaded sea s...
The best preparation cannot prevent things from breaking at sea. The question is, are you prepared to perform a repair on a boat offshore when help is nowhere near? The crew of Paragon attempts to jury-rig a broken whisker pole and finds the task to be a b...
