Well crew we've done it again. We've put ourselves in another hot and down right stressful situation. While stuck in a very expensive yard in Indonesia we wait to get placed back into the water so we can make our way to Malaysia where we can finally start r...

This week we see our new vessel Merewether II for the first time (since we bought her), and to tell you 'we are excited' would be an understatement. She is so much bigger then we remember her to be, she has SO much potential. She does however need a LOT of ...

In this weekly vlog of Barefoot Travels we start a 5 minute job ... why are they never 5 minute jobs!
We are preparing the boat to leave for The Bahamas so making room for as much provisions as possible is important!
The sink is definitely better than it was before and we can handle a slight drip!...
Alright so you guys have asked we have gone to visit La Vita one last time to give an update. She only just recently moved to Ocean World Marina where she was hauled out. She has SO much damage from the re-floating and sinking on the dock in Puerto Plata.
How much do you think it would cost to fix...
This week Brett ends up going to the HOSPITAL, but then leaves because he's too good for them - or something like that. Kidding, it just didn't make sense.
Everything happened so fast and we did all we could to keep things right way up. It was dirty, loud, and dangerous. We never thought it would be like this. Would we do it again?
See our secret of what we did when sailing to the island of Terceira. Hint: There are lots of rocks involved.

We are guided in by DOLPHINS under SPINNAKER in the final episode of our 10 part 2600 mile trans-atlantic OCEAN CROSSING. We left in our sailboat from St. Maarten 17 days ago on a doublehanded sail to Horta, Azores.
Are we still friends at the end? Did we make it? What is broken? Did we enjoy our ...
This one is going to cost us! Catching the drone at sea isn't easy, but the shots are worth it. We crash the drone in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean while on an offshore sailing passage to Horta, Azores.

We were living on a prayer alright, a prayer for some wind! But what we found was some awesome seamanship and squeezing every bit of polar optimals that we could out of the old gal. Even double-handed sailing can feel like single-handing at times.

That blip comes on the radar. Is it a squall? Is it a boat? Most boats this far offshore have some type of AIS, not all, but many. So who is this mysterious blip showing up on our radar?

Where did these STORMS come from? The water turns black as we battle roaring thunderstorms that push us at speeds over 10 knots. We ask ourselves, are we having fun? We continue our 2700nm bluewater sailing voyage as we sail across the Atlantic Ocean.

We set the spinnaker and really get our tiny home at sea rolling. We find a huge convergence zone filled with squalls, storms, and lightning. The weather models have no consensus. This isn't going to be an easy night!
