Six months into my stay in the bay, it was finally time to take Galopin out of the water because the hull growth had attached itself with a vengeance. Hauling the boat up onto the beach is always a nerve-wracking experience, and the sound of the cart balancing Galopin is enough to make you cringe. O...
Night sailing used to absolutely terrify me. Now, sitting alone on watch at 3am while Scotty sleeps below, it has become one of my favourite parts of passage making.
In this Coffee with Sandy, I’m recording from Sea Moon while we sail overnight from Dubrovnik, Croatia towards Corfu, Greece. We’re 2...

To get Yabá ready for the next leg of our journey up the coast, it’s time for a massive upgrade: a brand-new sail wardrobe. But getting four heavy sails back to the boat means leaving Rio behind, making a pitstop in Arraial do Cabo to leave the boat in good hands,...
I vowed never to ride a moto-taxi again, but the people here in Africa changed my mind. Meet Mamgol, a 64-year-old mast climber built like a jockey who helps us tackle the wind meter issue. But just as we thought we could get some work done between storms, trouble arrived adrift.
A massive storm ma...

I’ve just finished 3 months of charters in the Bahamas and now I have 4 days to sail to Key West Florida in the middle of hurricane season, to see our new boat for the very first time that we just put under contract, before delivering our old boat to Texas with her new owners onboard!
Far out!

We finally got the sails up with Diego and Pape, but our Sunday excursion to Gorée Island wasn't just about the journey—it was about the irony of the destination. Known historically as "Slave Island," Gorée is now a bustling local fun spot, a stark contrast to its dark past where peop...

There’s no better place than CVD to get real work done, especially with trusted friends like Arona and Diallo by my s...
Do I have medical insurance? No, I don't. So what do I do in case of an incident? Like on a motorcycle taxi where I got burned on the exhaust pipe which turned into a very nasty infection.
I went to see a doctor who checked me out and prescribed a strong treatment. That nasty infection kept me...
