This week we’re embarking on our longest #offshorepassage EVER on our own on our Seawind 1600 catamaran. We're #sailing south from Solomons Island to Norfolk, Virginia then on to Charleston, South Carolina an...
The time has come for us to say goodbye... After sailing nearly 30,000 miles together, Grace has decided to not sail this passage and will meet Calico Skies in Panama giving new crew the opportunity to log some offshore miles. After saying goodbye the boys don't waste any time digging into our ...

Sailing through reef strewn and poorly charted waters, we make our way to the Komodo National Park to get up close and personal with some Dragons, the largest lizards in the world. We got to see this amazing spectacle before they put the entry fee up from $10 to $1000!

We sail to Wakatobi to explore its world class reefs and meet with the Bajo people. These people are known as the nomads of the sea and now live in a stilt village over the reef near Hoga island. We also welcome on board some new crew for Florence.

We sailed to Galaxidi to find shelter for a few days, bad weather was coming closer. Galaxidi was a very cool place with lot's of activities like hiking and visiting the oracle of Delphi. ...
We sail to a group of islands that have a history of turning sailors into millionaires. Overlooked by a steaming volcano, this is an island where money grew on trees. A successful return voyage to here from Europe would once have set someone up with enough money for life.

Hazardous nets and blindingly bright fishing fleets are just part of the challenge of sailing to Indonesia. Sailing at night is not recommended here but sometimes the distances involved leave us no choice. Following four days sailing offshore, the cultural welcome we are given in the Kai islands is ...
Sailing up to Cape York, the remote northern tip of Australia, dodging reefs and shipping in the trade winds. We follow in Captain Cook's footsteps, stopping at Lizard Island on the Great Barrier Reef. The hiking and reef snorkeling we found there was so good that we stayed days longer than pla...
We call out the Australian Coast Guard for the first time and get lifted out of the water to check Florence's bottom ready for sailing to Indonesia. The clock ticks away as we try to get all of our work done on Florence in under 72 hours to save an extra day on the hard. Sailing to a country wi...
What is it like to sail the Whitsundays? Before leaving to sail around the world we used to have a book on the best places to sail in the world. The Whitsundays were on the front cover, so we were pretty excited to be sailing our own boat through these beautiful, famous islands. Join us as we explor...
After much planning we finally complete the passage through the notoriously tricky Devil's Backbone reef and arrive at a beautiful secluded beach north of Harbour Island, Eleuthera. We are being extra cautious as we opted to tackle the reef without the aid of a pilot, using our charts in conjun...
In this episode of Cruising Off Duty, we will test sail the Xquisite X5, 50' Catamaran that I will help sail across the South Atlantic, Across the equator and to the Caribbean.
We wanted to try sailing with a Parasail for the first time, which will be the sail we assume we will use the most on...
Forced to take shelter from storms in Mackay we take the opportunity to explore inland to Finch Hatton Gorge and hunt for duck billed platypus at Broken River. When paying for a marina berth we try to make the most of the facilities by doing all the jobs that require fresh water. With the bad weathe...
Sailing the Bahamas is better with friends! We left NYC in the fall of 2017 with our friends Chris and Michele of S/V Andromeda, making the trip down to the Bahamas as buddy boats. We weren't sure if paths would cross again. Fast forward 18 months and two Atlantic crossing's later we final...
This is a live episode where I explain how the South Atlantic Sailing voyage went. I talk about how I liked the Xquisite X5 as well as how I enjoyed the various ports of call along the 6000 mile sailing voyage.
Chased by the threat of a possible cyclone we discover the beauty of Australia's east coast islands from Great Keppel to Middle Percy with some fantastic spinnaker sailing in between. The distances involved meant we had to be up early but got to see some beautiful sunrises as a result. We could...
Sailing out to Lady Musgrave Island on the Great Barrier Reef was an exciting prospect, our first reef atoll visit since New Caledonia and our first glimpse of the famous Great Barrier Reef. A 55 mile overnight sail to the island brought us to a paradise for wildlife. The island is a nature reserve ...
