Solo Sailing Catamaran’s, good idea or bad? (Learning By Doing Ep219)
I’ve always loved solo sailing, Sailing alone on a Catamaran is a lot different from a monohull though, this I learnt. I’m yet to decide if I’ll solo sail my Cat on longer passage though as the danger seems to be much higher. I solo sailed my mono many thousands of miles, she spoke to me on passage...
Eden, the little paradise down south. (Learning By Doing Ep218)
Eden, you were amazing, thanks! We spent an unplanned month altogether in this beautiful little town and loved it! So many friendly locals, so many beautiful places to visit. As we sailed out of there and headed north to Bermagui we show you just a few snippets from our stay there. Thanks for watch...
Passage Planning for Bass Strait. (Learning By Doing Ep217)
Today we show you our process for planning a sailing passage, in this case to cross the notorious Bass Strait. We are losing patience slowly, being stuck here in Eden for over 3 weeks now but are still cautious as Catamaran is still new and unproven to us. Would you have gone? I also find out that w...
New Running Rigging for our Catamaran. (Learning By Doing Ep216)

Bass Straight passage FAILURE. (Learning By Doing Ep215)
Off we go, across the Bass Straight to Tasmania. We didnt get very far though, first the Jib halyard broke then after fixing that and sailing on one of the job sheets snapped. That was enough, I lost all trust in the running rigging and for the first time ever we turned back. Back to Eden to order l...
200+ miles on our first real passage. Too easy! (Learning By Doing Ep214)
Our first overnight passage on our new Catamaran, Trade Runner. Pittwater south to Eden, NSW is about 240 nautical miles and we picked a pretty mellow wind for this one. There is a good south running current about 15 miles offshore so we sailed out there and stayed in it all the way south. A really ...

Moving aboard our new Boat! (Learning By Doing Ep212)
Moving Time! The process of packing up our old home (Schiehallion) and moving all that stuff to our new home (Trade Runner) is a big one. Accumulated stuff has to be sorted through, junk thrown away. Then everything needs to be transported over, all of by dinghy (in windy wet conditions) and then fo...
WHAT?? Our boat Sold in 2 DAYS! 😱 (Learning By Doing Ep211)

Two days later and she was sold to the first person who looked at her, AMAZING! Enjoy! ⚓️Join our CREW⚓️ If you enjoy our...

Its a pretty big decision, to sell our beloved Schiehallion. We give our thought process on this and take you with us own the initial boat tour. Enjoy! ⚓️Join ...
Fastest Passage OR Last Passage on Schiehallion? (Learning By Doing Ep209)
Our current passage record of 176nm in 24hrs is under threat this week as we sail from Yamba 240nm south to Port Stephens. With a good wind forecast and the strong south flowing current it looked good for a possible 200nm 24hr run. Did we make it? Also, we might be sailing our last passage in Schieh...
Overnight passage with my 70yo MUM! (Learning By Doing Ep208)
Leaving the extremely loud and busy Gold Coast we sail the 240nm south to Yamba. Marie gets pretty stressed when we haven't been doing long passages for a while and this time it happened again. She felt scared, seasick and just generally unwell. The trip was pretty uneventful really and we arri...
Owning a Sailboat aint no holiday. Scarborough Marina (Learning By Doing Ep207)
After sailing down the Queensland coast to Brisbane we checked in to Scarborough Marina for a 2 weeks stay through the Christmas break. We were looking forward to a little holiday but it turned out to be a mad busy time. We painted, repaired, upgraded and fixed things with hardly a relaxing moment. ...
SPINNAKER sailing, did I push it too hard?. (Learning By Doing Ep206)

It was a dream passage from start to end, we lifted anchor at 1pm and dropped anchor at 3.30am, thats a 7kt average. We had optimum wind and sea state, so good that Marie even had a shower do...
Boat Rebuild + Sailing Plans for the next year (Learning By Doing Ep199)
