My Final Video as Sailing Zingaro
After 10 years and 90,000 nautical miles, this is the last video under the Sailing Zingaro name. In 2016 I bought a catamaran, pointed a camera at myself, and made a promise: I'll go, and I'll take you with me. The good, the bad, the ugly. You watched me sail to Ecuador, Easter Island, an...

We Sailed to a FORBIDDEN ISLAND | Sailing Truth Show
Most boats never make it to Mai'O. You can't just sail in... the island decides who comes ashore. Years ago, my girlfriend and I were anchored in Moorea when we met a man whose friend was from Mai'O. He asked if we could bring his friend home. We said yes — and what happened next was...

sailors, don’t miss out on this!
On this inland adventure, we leave the anchorage in Valle Gran Rey and dive deep into La Gomera travel. As much as we love sailing the world, there’s so much beauty hiding inland — and this time, we explore it properly. We set off on a road trip Gomera, winding up the dramatic ridges toward the famo...
Sailing Is Way Scarier Than You Think – Ep 353 – Lady K Sailing
Sailing looks calm, romantic, and free — until it isn’t. In this video, we explore the real-life disasters and accidents that show just how fast things can go wrong at sea — from the 1979 Fastnet Race tragedy to the Cheeki Rafiki and Sydney to Hobart storm, to modern-day survival stories that remind...
Pardey Time at the Whitsunday Sailing Club!
As soon I discovered that the inimitable Lin Pardey would be sharing her story at our local Whitsunday Sailing Club, the first thing I did was ensure my whole family and I were booked in. Like many cruising sailors, I'm a Pardey fan, so the chance to see one of my long-term idols in person, a...
Back Onboard! – Living With The Tide
Welcome aboard! After a couple of years away, we're back on YouTube with a new boat, a new camera – but the same silly crew. Our previous adventures followed the restoration of Morna, our beautiful 100-year-old gaff ketch. Sadly, after many experienced boat builders came to take a look, it bec...

Brilliant Sailing! 11+ Knots on a 45-year-old Kelly Peterson 44
Some sails are worth the wait, and this was one of them. Ironically, it was a passage we’d been dreading. If you’re cruising down the Queensland coast, the leg from Magnetic Island south to the Whitsundays faces practically dead southeast – straight into the prevailing tradewinds. In the summer ...
Rain Check! Monsoon Season Sailing for Dummies 🤪
One of the questions we’re often asked is: “what’s the worst weather you’ve sailed in?” This wasn’t the worst (by far), but it was definitely some of the wettest. The passage this video features was also made more challenging by the fact that our destination was into the wind, and we were racing ...

Adventure Is Out There | Sailing to a piece of paradise on Australia’s east coast

How To Finish A Mid-Refit Sail In Style | Boat Refit Documentary Part 12
They say 'absence makes the heart grow fonder' and perhaps that's true of sailing too. Although there is still a lot of work to be done on our 43-year-old Kelly Peterson 44, getting out on her again after so long on the dock has been a poignant lesson in gratitude during these challe...
