Sailing into storms is not something we do. However with the weather closing in, we decide to head towards the blackening skies. If we get in before the storm hits, we'll get to anchor in one of the worlds finest anchorages and watch the power of nature as it breaks over Sydney.
We've had...
Lightning storms are one of a sailors worst fears. On a night sail from Italy to Croatia we get caught in the middle of a monster storm. For forty minutes we were stuck in the eye of the storm with lightning strikes all around. The timing was bad. We were approaching land, and the raging storm to th...

How can you protect your sailboat against a lightning strike? After our recent 500 mile crossing where we encountered our worst lightning storms at sea, we talk about tactics for avoiding and sailing through lightning storms. In 'Lightning strike - can you protect your boat?' we come up wi...
We've sailed a lot of miles through many gales, but this was our biggest lightning storm ever. It was a relentless dirty, rotten storm. Lightning hit the sea every 10 seconds and lit up our sailboat for hours. The wind picked up to 35+kts so we made good speed, but man alive, that lightning jus...
This was by far the most eventful cruise ever!! Last week we thought we had it rough in our first ever storm, not knowing what awaits us!! It was smooth sailing through the Straits of Gibraltar and for about 4 days thereafter, and then it all happened. We almost got boarded by a Rubber duck with abo...

We get hit by lightning off the coast of Colombia. Worried that the sailboat might be hit again, the first mate sails Zingaro back to Cartagena. We show you how bad the damage was and what survived. Looks like we are going to have a LOT of work to do. At our current estimate the damage ran us just o...
The tropics aren’t all sunshine and calm seas… Offshore from Central America we sail through some crazy lightning storms, rain squalls, and then have dead calm periods in between. Even calm enough for us to jump in and go spear fishing in the middle of the ocean to catch a dorado! We also come acr...
The final test hit us like a bulldozer. We have come over 1,000 miles and now have just 80 to go. There's no easy way across. We have no choice but to sail through the night. That's when it happened, 35 Miles from the Dominican Republic.
We were totally unprepared for our first Chubasco Thunderstorm. Anchored in Bahía Concepción, we thought we had prepared for the coming lightning storm, but end up dragging several miles out to sea in 50 knot winds. Learn what we did wrong, and how we will plan better for future storms. In the ca...
