Although I work hard to express the thoughts and feelings of my husband, Simon, the SailingBritican.com website is mainly based on my perspective. That being said, I've had various readers write to me, send tweets and messages through Facebook asking if they could hear more from Simon.

I'm a few days behind on replying to comments and emails. I've been sick for the past two days. I thought I was getting better but as you can probably tell by the end of this video that wasn't the case. I wanted to publish this video to wish all of you guys a merry Christmas. Connecti...
I'm going to spend the next two weeks aboard Obelix with my dog. The goal is to figure out if I can move aboard my boat on a permanent basis. The 230V outlet installation is done and they are all working great. I'm trying to figure out how much insulation I really need in the boat to be ab...
With temperatures dipping below 0 Celsius recently I was reminded of how cold the cabin sole can get. Last winter I put down some foam mats and carpet, but I wanted to make something a little better for this winter.
It is the first night and already I haven't had to wear my slippers as the f...

This video explains why I moved my boat to another marina. It's all about my hopes and dreams for the future. I want to give living aboard a try. If I can handle living aboard I'll be able to save up money to go cruising for an extended period of time.

I had the question recently regarding my internet and cable on the boat. Well as a full time live-aboard it is nice to have my own internet and the marina I am at provides the cable.
Here is a quick video of how I have it all hooked up and how I am able to watch live TV without actually having t...
While I was in Ganges I had noticed the many interesting and sometimes surprising ways that boats are tied to the dock. One 46 sailboat had one line which was that yellow 3 strand floating braided line that deteriorates quite badly when exposed to sunlight!
Seeing all boats and the various ways t...
I spent the day wandering around little town of Ganges on Saltspring Island and enjoyed the beautiful November weather we are having!

Today I left my marina in Richmond and travelled down the Fraser River, across the Straight of Georgia, through Active Pass and finally to Ganges which is located on Saltspring Island.
Although the forecast was for strong Easterly winds, it was more of a South East wind. I sailed close hauled fr...
Going for a cruise always means a few things to get ready before the trip so here is a quick look at how I prepared the boat before I sailed off to Ganges over on Saltspring Island.

If you have a roller furling system for your headsail then you know it can be a hassle to have the leading edge lined up to enter the track. Not difficult to do with two people, but how can you hoist the sail on your own? Simple tool is a 'sail pre-feeder'!

My neighbour invited me over to give a demonstration of how to use a Sewing Awl. A tool I will definitely be purchasing after seeing how useful it is! I checked online for this tool and found it is sold at many marine related outlets!
You will see in the video that Mae thought she did the finish...
