WE BOUGHT A SAILING CATAMARAN:
after more than six months of searching (as to buy a decent sailing catamaran within our small budget here in SE Asia was quite a challenge), reviewing a few boats, we finally found & bought our absolutely dream sailboat....
Sailing 180 miles from Belitung to Lingga in the Java Sea was a first, made more interesting by the anti-collision tactics we had to employ for the fishing platforms, floating debris and crazy tugs in the water.
We had checked out of Indonesia, but there was still a long way to go before leaving In...
You have asked us now Millie copes with being on the boat when SY Esper is heeling. She's been doing it all her life, so here's your answer. Millie the cat swaying on a sailboat...set to music! Funny cat video 😺
Peace and fair winds, and remember to follow the boat!
Liz, Jamie and Millie...

A decision to build a 40 foot Catamaran should not be taken lightly. Join Ross Boardman in a series of videos that shows the ups and downs, logistics and blood sweat, swearing and tears involved in the building of a fibreglass composite catamaran.

We've sailed Greece, Cyprus, Egypt, Sudan, Eritrea, Yemen, Oman, India, Maldives, Malaysia, Thailand and Indonesia.

Heading into the South China Sea, we discover tiny and remote, desert islands, fringed in coral. Terns flocking around the rocks, sea eagles soaring overhead and colourful reef fish swimming in the shallows. We even saw a dugong!

With the worst part of the Singapore Strait behind us, we still had to navigate the rest of the shipping lanes to relative safety on the eastern side of the Malaysian peninsula. We opted to try our luck closer to shore and weave through the hazards, keeping clear of the big ships.

As all good things must come to an end, so must our shakedown cruise.
It was hard to tear ourselves away from one of our new favorite spots on the east side of Peanut Island, but we knew there was still a lot of boat work to be completed before hurricane season finishes, and it would be fastest and...
Nine days after the USS John S McCain was holed by a tanker, we tackled the Singapore Strait. The military and coast-guard presence in all sections was full on.
At one point we were politely told to move over, but other ships received far more severe reprimands over the VHF radio, and were reporte...

Which is best for cruising liveaboards? Is there an answer? Are we trying to compare chocolate and chips? Or cats and dogs?
In this Q&A we try to give the pros and cons of each. But do we change our minds, and what will we decide is the best option for the @followtheboat crew?

Continuing our stay next to Peanut Island in the Palm Beach area, we decide to spend as much time as we can in the water.

We're making passage to the Anambas Islands in the South China Seas and will be there for the rest of September and into October. This means we will pretty much be off-grid for a month.

We visit UNESCO-listed old Melaka town before preparing SY Esper for the Malacca Strait.
There are still traces of its earlier grandeur to be found in the ancient alleyways and buildings of Melaka, and in this quick tour we offer a glimpse of life in the old port over the past 700 years.

The day has finally arrived. After taking a junk boat sitting in the graveyard to do a complete overhaul on it, we're now ready to move it to the water!
