"Sorry" to headphone users: Most of the footage is shot with a GoPro and it seems that this camera picks up a very low tone from the Engine Room. Cannot filter that out. Will look for a solution.

In this video I take a short field trip to my good friend Bill England's "Sea Clamp" boat shed, where Bill is building a 48' Diesel Duck Motor Sailor (George Buehler design). Bill built a massive boat shed for about $1500 USD, something that builders of the Wave Rover could do fo...

Despite the fact that in 1975 the IJsselmeer was split into the IJsselmeer (1.100 km2) and the Markermeer (700 km2), the region itself is still the largest fresh water lake MADE BY MAN in western Europe. The downside is that it is only 3.5m to 5.5 (in the traffic lane...
In this final video of 2021, I attend to an electrical problem on board (back on shore power for the first time in nine months), install new lines, hoist the flags and then cycle around Nagasaki to revisiting places like Martyrs Hill where I have led bicycle pilgrimages to in the past. Also, I was t...
In this video I reap the benefits of building the Wave Rover "Womb". I prep the boat and my work area, and then it's time to apply the heavy bi-axial fiberglass to the chines. CORRECTION: at minute 2:29 when cleaning the hull, I am using just water, not soap and water.

I'm releasing this video just a little early as Santa Claus and his Elves are big Wave Rover fans and wanted to see it before heading out. The battle with the temperature is lost but Rover's just don't give up. I concoct a new plan to battle on. We enjoy a lovely Christmas theme in th...
Sailing into Nagasaki! A dream come true. As with other Kyushu ports I had been to before, I had arrived by bicycle. A city rich historically, culturally, and topographically, to arrive by sea is a real treat, particularly given that the city just celebrated the 450th anniversary of the first for...
The battle against the temperature continues. I have to accept the fact that the weather is getting cooler and I will have to figure out techniques to adapt to this new normal. But as Rovers, we just don't give up! To help build Mrs Rover a bungalow contact me at: [email protected]

It is my second time visiting Akune, Western Kyushu. This time by boat but 21 years ago by bicycle. I am grateful to Kaminota and his family for their kindness. It was my last stop before realizing a dream . . . sailing into Nagasaki. Nagasaki adventures will be in a future episode but for now, I...
The transom is fitted and the hull is now complete from the plywood perspective. I explain the importance of learning to see with ones hands. The battle against the temperature continues.

At my last two ports, I have moored at Sea Stations ( Umi no Eki) and as they were very different in style and cost I thought that some viewers would like to take a tour of each. I have stayed at several Sea Stations in Japan as well as Marinas ( where you pay) and lots of fishing ports where you d...

Would you E-Foil in Piranha invested waters?? Well it surely was a very quick way of learning, trying to get onto that board as quick as possible. We had an amazing time in Suriname, from interacting with Sloths, to exploring the Jungle and chasing snakes off the pontoons.
