Do you REALLY need a decksweeper mainsail on a modern Formula 18 catamaran?
Today we're sailing the Nacra Evolution in what I'm calling the "Sports Utility" F18 configuration — with a custom non-decksweeper mainsail and shortened daggerboards.
But how much performance do you ac...
Have We Made a Huge Mistake?
Last week we wept as Declan and Ivan sailed off to Mexico to join a sailing cargo ship bound for the northern Atlantic and ultimately Hamburg. Their first contact with us when they reached the boat on Cozumel, left us wondering if we had made a huge mistake.
Meanwhile R...
We spent a week at anchor in Orikum Bay, Albania, but the relentless swell eventually pushed us to move into the marina early for a break. While there, we finally got some calm, did a bit of sightseeing, and enjoyed a change of pace after rough days on the hook. If you like sailing Albania, catamara...
Between the two of us, we’ve been sailing for a long time. We know the theory. We know what a MAYDAY call sounds like. We know where every piece of distress equipment on this boat lives. But when an emergency actually happened, none of that seemed to matter.
What we had was a pounding heart, a seri...

After 8 Years...It's Time to Say Goodbye
And just like that...a chapter comes to a close. After eight years of live aboard sailing around the world, where Declan and Ivan have grown from boys to capable, adventurous young men, they are jumping ship, bound for Mexico to join a 106 year old sail...
Getting a beach catamaran out of a narrow channel without an engine can look impossible... but with the right technique it's surprisingly manageable.
In this video I take a Hobie 16 through a tight buoyed channel using a series of controlled three-point turn style tacks. Along the way I'l...
Sailing the RUGGED west coast of Albania means storm dodging, nasty swell, strong gusts, and the ongoing challenge of provisioning the boat in remote anchorages. In this episode, we push on through wild conditions and make the best of a rough stretch of coastline.

🏝️ We thought Kaprije would be another peaceful stop along Croatia's stunning Dalmatian Coast... until another boat accidentally hooked our anchor chain.

Can less sail actually make you faster?
It sounds completely backwards...
Most sailors assume that removing the jib from a Hobie 16 would make the boat slower. Less sail area should mean less speed... right?
So I decided to stop guessing and find out.
In this video I head out into strong wind co...
Before we could leave South Africa behind for good, Happy Days needed to be ready for everything the Atlantic could throw at her. What followed was days of running rigging failures, 50-knot winds in the marina, and a job list that seemed to grow faster than we could tick it off.
This episode we...
