Ep 163 Back in the Amazing BVIs Again | Full Moon Party Trellis Bay, Foxy’s New Year’s Eve Party
Following our leaving for the USVI’s after being disappointed by the BVI’s ridiculous 30-day tourist visa rules, we return knowing that the officious behavior is simply the gatekeeping, and we know from long experience that these challenges are rarely,...
Ep 162 Exploring the Hotspots of the BVIs – Then Getting Thrown Out
I feel a bit bad about calling this episode “Exploring”. It’s really more about showing viewers what the anchorages are like and letting them know that these are areas to stop at. But I couldn’t come up with a better word, or one I liked better tha...
Ep 161 Sail and Furler Repairs Continue in the BVIs
We just can’t get past the problems with our upper swivel on the mainsail furler and the problems created by “sail repairs”. But that being the case we still try to enjoy the beauty of the British Virgin Islands, which are probably the preeminent s...
Ep 160 Cursed Projects Part II | Tortola and Scrub Island, BVI
In this episode we make the hop from Sint Maarten to the British Virgin Islands without fully completing the projects we were working on. And, of course more crop up. And things go from mere nuisance to much bigger problems when our mainsail starts jammi...
Ep 159 Am I Cursed With My Boat Projects? Frustration in Sint Maarten

Ep 158 Boat Projects, Launching Talisman, Perfect Passage from Antigua to Sint Maarten
This episode isn't too complicated. We prep the boat for launch with a long list of projects to complete. We ride out a Cat 1 hurricane (Tammy), then it's back to work. Our new drone gives us some impressive footage as I learn to fly it. It's a new DJI Min...
Ep 157 Docking Challenges in Antigua, W.I.

Ep 156 High Wind Docking, Oyster Regatta, Sail to Guadeloupe
This is a bit of a mashup of footage we took while at our home base of Antigua, W.I. Starting with a rather pedestrian 2 mile motor-sail from Falmouth Harbour over to Nelson’s Dockyard, we find ourselves entering the land of clustered superyachts that al...
Ep 155 LifePo4 Lithium Marine Battery Install | One Year Debrief
EXPENSIVE MISCALCULATION As longtime viewers will know, the point of this channel has never been to shine a favorable light on ourselves. Instead, we're brutally honest when it comes to admitting our fails. And despite all efforts to be the “no drama” ...
In 8 years vlogging, this is my FAVORITE episode (Sailing to Rapa Nui pt. 2/2)
Sailing back to the magical island of Rapa Nui (Easter Island), we take locals sailing, harvest honey, and have the privilege of recording a local artist. This is the highlight of a beautiful 10 days in an unimaginably beautiful place. ❤️ Support thi...
Ep 154 Fighting Squalls on Passage to Martinique (Plus Boat vs. Reef)
We depart St Lucia on Passage to Martinique, seeing 20-25 knot tradewinds, but squalls build in the afternoon, presenting wind speeds into the high 30’s (37 knots). For those unaware, these quickly become serious conditions. An un-reefed sail will be tor...
Ep 153 Three Must-Have Finds For The Cruising Sailor (Short)
Three no-paid sponsorship finds for the cruising sailor: On this Christmas Eve, I decided to do a quick short on few items the I’ve discovered and really like. None of these are paid sponsorships, and the manufacturers/suppliers have no idea we’re rev...

Ep 151 Heading North to Union Island and Tobago Cays
Talisman continues the northward trek, leaving Grenada and Carriacou for St Vincent and the Grenadines. The first island in the group is Union Island, which is where transient boats clear in. We find that the town of Clifton is barely functioning under y...
Ep 150 More Docking Tips & Tricks, Plus Sailing Grenada
Tips and Tricks for Docking a Larger Sailboat So rather than do an extended written essay like last episode, this time I decided to add voiceovers to the video, which is a less cumbersome way of getting to the same place. We’ll continue along this line ...
Ep 149 Docking, Undocking, and Sailing in Grenada and Carriacou
Tips and Tricks for Med Mooring: In this 149th episode of Sailing (Yacht) Talisman, we demonstrate (kind of) a specific docking process called Med mooring. In this case, the bow is going to be secured to laid moorings connected by a heavy chain to a helic...
Ep 148 True Offshore Sailing | 420nm Adventure | BVI’s to Grenada
This episode covers our big (420nm) passage from Nanny Cay, Tortola, BVI’s to Port Louis Marina in Grenada. The point of doing so was twofold. The driving factor was that we’d never visited any of the Caribbean islands south of Saint Lucia, and it was ...
Ep 147 I Refuse to Fail at This! Fischer Panda Generator
Marine generators live in a harsh environment. Not only that, ours is almost 30 years old. And keeping it running has been a constant challenge. But over the years I've learned so much about diagnosing engine and electrical problems that I knew that with s...
Sailing To Where The Cinnamon Rolls Grow | Sailboat Story 239
The place we are sailing to is special because it's where cinnamon buns grow. It's a place called "The Island Farm", located in Palmetto Point, Eleuthera. We sail in, drop anchor, launch the dinghy, and work up our appetites with a long hike that has a swe...
Ep 146 For The Sailing Fans – SXM to the BVI’s
At the season got started, we were still doing a lot of boat projects. These never seemed to end, and I didn’t even make videos about some of them as it seemed like we were looking like a “project boat”. But then we set off from Antigua to Dutch Si...
