After fixing our steering we leave our isolated island group for the first time since lockdown started only to encounter 35 knot winds on our offshore passage to the Island of Nias off the west coast of Sumatra, Indonesia. Even though we were pounding upwind in 35 knots of wind and horizontal rain, ...
Sailing the blue waters of Eleuthera, we party with the locals, find an uncharted blue hole, free dive with sharks, and find a problem with our engine we must fix before we can continue on our voyage through the Bahamas and on to the Caribbean.

The weather is changing, and the longer we wait to leave the islands, the smaller the chances become for finding a good weather window. After three weeks of dodging storm front after storm front, we decide to make a dash for it, leaving the Abaco Islands of The Bahamas to cross the Gulf Stream back ...
We finally buy our boat, move aboard and sail away! We spill some champagne, and sail through some storm conditions in 30kts and 5-6 foot waves to move SV Northern Reach down one of Canada’s Great Lakes. It's amateur hour when we fill our boat with smoke - looks like we're in for a steep l...
In this vid we share our passage from New Zealand to Tubuai, Austral Islands. We chose to take the southern route in the higher latitudes where we picked up the westerlies to make almost 2000 miles of easting before we turned North towards our destination. By taking the longer and harder route we ac...
This is a story of running from a storm into shelter only to find that shelter is inhabited by massive salt water crocodiles. The crocs don't seem to want to share either! The reality of life on board Florence, sailing around the world is not always good weather and easy days. We have to prepar...
Old video from several years back when I was learning how to sail in Santa Cruz California.
Out with some friends on a 24' racing sailboat going dead down wind(DDW) at a blazing 16knots!!! The wake behind the boat was incredible!

Day 2 of our epic voyage from Gibraltar to Sicily (non-stop with no engine, only sail) takes a turn for the worse. The weather continues to build and our wind steering can’t keep our sailboat on course. The seas begin breaking into the cockpit and over the deck. We make a decision that will affect t...
We get hit by a HUGE thunder storm in the middle of the night and catch it on camera. In pitch black darkness and torrential rain we have to dodge through a fleet of fishing boats and avoid collisions with cargo ships. In this episode we show you what it is like to sail at night in a thunder storm. ...
Dodging ships and fishing boats sailing through a thunderstorm in the middle of the night. Pirates on one side, fishing boats on the other and in the middle a ship superhighway that we need to cross without getting run down and sunk.
Why do we do this? Well after one night of that, one of us almost ...
In this League we leave our protected anchorage and hope that the winds and swells have reduced from yesterdays storm sailing. We cant see land in any direction, and we make it to our final anchorage for this passage in beautiful down town Vancouver, Canada, in False Creek. This is where we have to ...
Torn sails and squalls are just some of the challenges we face as we sail back into the northern hemisphere for the first time in two and a half years. Boat life is not an easy life if you want to sail across the equator. Dealing with life at sea is far from simple in these changeable and sometimes ...
We are on a time crunch to leave the marina to live at anchor. Its time to leave all of the amenities such as easy access to the boat, drinking water, and shore power behind. In this episode we start our passage from the sweet marina life in Everett, WA to our anchorage in Vancouver, BC. We engage i...

Goose wing, or wing on wing, what do you call it? We show you how we sail wing on wing using a polled-out genoa and prevented main (or mizzen). Just as we think this sailing life can't get any better a fierce squall hits as we sail into trouble inside a rocky anchorage. This is a desolate part ...
This is the final DAILY video installment of our 1,500 nautical mile journey south from Hampton, Virginia to Virgin Gorda in the British Virgin Islands. Unfortunately the final night saw us sailing into a Tropical Wave that brought lightning filled squalls, the biggest of which we sailed into right ...
We sail south with a favourable wind and find ourselves caught up in Summer thunderstorms. With lightning blasting the sky we take measures to protect our electrical circuits. Winds swirl and cause us to be on a lee shore, we show our rain collection method and find the infamous Wide Bay Bar smiling...
Only accessible by boat this Island is well hidden from the casual Sailor. Known to have been a popular Pirate hangout in the past, there are plenty of tales about hidden treasures on Isla del Coco. We couldn’t resist to try and make our way to this Pirate Paradise.

In this episode we set off on a five day sail across the bay of Biscay with ARC Portugal. Three days in we get news of a force 10 storm crossing our path. The fleet of yachts have to run for cover, some head into open water and have to sit out the storm at sea. Two of them with no engine. We try and...
