Intercepted by an A-4 off the Atlantic Coast [OFFSHORE SAILING]
Rounding Cape Hatteras requires careful planning and the right weather conditions, but even then we were in for a few surprise visitors as we rounded the great cape on our migration south for the winter. We lost the wind for a time, but enjoyed some epic s...

FINALLY! The Holy Grail – Air Conditioning off Batteries on our Sailboat
Our first attempt at running air conditioning off of our batteries didn't work so well, but this unit from Mabru is so efficient that we can run the AC all night long off of our lithium batteries. This week we show the installation on Clarity and compare t...

Well THAT Escalated Quickly – Returning to Clarity
Things don't go to plan...as usual. With flights cancelled, getting stuck in Portland turns out to be a good thing. Then it's back to the boat for some more big projects. One of our lithium batteries goes bad, we find a long-term leak and some rotten wood ...
MYSTERY SOLVED! So We Sail 800 Miles North in the Gulf Stream
The mystery behind our engine running warm is solved, so we sailed 800 miles north. Barnacle Buster saved the day! We had a hot running engine, so we came back to Ft Lauderdale to troubleshoot. One of our earliest Patrons, Patrick Laclerc saw what was goin...
DYNEEMA FAILURE – hanging by a thread!
Our time in the Exumas is winding down and it's likely we won't be back for a long, long time. We're ready to get north, but the wind shuts down completely. What do we do? We get to work and we enjoy the water! #dyneema #cruising #sailing #paradise #exuma...
THE BIG DECISION MAKES ITSELF!
The laughter has helped, but we aren't going to lie, this has been a bit painful for us. We always said that cruising a small boat around should be called "decisioning," This year the decision has been based on whether we should sail north to New England a...
CATAMARAN SAILING & BAHAMAS ANCHORAGES – SLOW TV – Nick’s Music
I started making the music for our channel to avoid copyright notices. Some of the music is inspirational and used for video intros. Others tracks are slower, ambient, and more meditative. These tracks are produced with a mix of samples, loops, and MIDI pl...
