A cascading series of unfortunate events has lead us to the point where we're located in a dangerous anchorage, the engine won't start, and all 3 diesel tanks are contaminated.
To make matters worse, we've been denied safe harbor by Titusville Municipal Marina, which is within sight ...
We decided to leave St Lucia on Sunday and that required getting PCR tests, booking out, filling up with duty-free fuel, and heading north. The weather wasn't great but for us to meet the deadline for PCR test results we had to go. The trip was supposed to be a 28 hour non-stop sail doing aroun...
Before our last two bulkheads go in, we need to make sure they sit in their EXACT place, as there is no margin of error.
Because the large transom piece we received with our second container sits as a cap over these two bulkheads, we need to make sure each edge is lining up. But because this piece ...
It is time for another passage and this time we have created a pre-passage checklist to help us remember to check all those various items before we sail.

A couple of days ago, we released a video about “how we are going back to Polar Seal”. At the time we published it, we weren’t sure that it was a good idea to make it public anymore, but event...
In today's sailing vlog, a Lagoon 42 hits the ground while entering the channel of Deltaville, VA. It's every sailor's nightmare to run aground, it's simply a sailing disaster! Luckily, just seconds from disaster 3 dinghies jumped to the rescue, and we were truly glad to hear th...
Will our boat ever be the same after this?? Join us for an epic fueling fail that will make any sailor cringe. An unexpected wrong hole situation couldn’t stop us from going on adventure! Learning more about Sylfia, & getting our waterbabies into scubadiving was so exciting! Curious about which ...
In this video, we share the story of how a beautiful day at sea ended up being towed back to Cartagena, Spain by the fire department.
We recollect the succession of events that led us to this situation and share our lessons learned with the community.
Armchair sailor warning! This could have hap...
Didn’t see that one coming!
For the first time since we left the dock in Stockholm, we take Polar Seal out for a spin in the bay of Cartagena, just for the sake of having the fun day on the water (oh and also because we want to test our water maker…)
We have an amazing day at anchorage, filled w...

Sometimes life's most valuable lessons come in the form of learning from the mistakes of others! We learn a bit about one of those lessons as another boat runs aground!
Also in this episode we sail out of Eagle Harbor, enjoy the Seattle sky line, and catch the Adventuress under full sail!

We started to take on water while traversing a very turbulent waterway. Water was rushing in fast and the bilge was working hard. It took us around three minutes to find the issue. I headed to the stern of the boat (back) pulling up floorboards. Andrew, our volunteer crew member, went to the one si...
