Living on the hard is by far the least pleasant part of living on a boat. It’s like doing a mini-remodel of your tini-house, which hopefully is only necessary every 2 years. One also needs to remember that you have to repair/upgrade/or service all the ...
This episode is PACKED with cool stuff - beautiful New Zealand landmarks, fabulous Birthday Party; visiting Cape Reinga, Te Paki Sand Dunes, 90 mile beach, Waitangi Treaty Grounds & Maori museum and of course Tall Ship Rally in Russell. We could easily...

We left Tonga as hurricane season is coming soon. Possible safe destinations - Australia or New Zealand. We chose latter. We tool off with our “Buddy Boat” Nimbus, who had to stop for couple of hours to fix some issues and we stopped as well (previous ...
No kidding - Tonga is the place to swim with whales, and we did it. You also get to meet our pet gecko, straight out of the Matrix. We drop in some cool anchorages, attend a local Breast Cancer awareness party, and take off for the 7 day passage to New Z...
This island is a treat for us - it's so different from what we have been seeing for a while. Very different and unique - no sandy beaches to pull up your dinghy, just a semi automated lift (!) and many caves and lots of rocks! And a bar that is open only o...
Aquarius was at her last stop in French Polynesia, and her Dessalator water maker started making saltwater! Would we head back to Raiatea, or move ahead without a water maker. At that point Ken thought it was time to learn more about the water maker, an...
You will not be disappointed as Aquarius visits Palmerston, part of the Cook Islands in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. It’s an island with no shops, nor restaurants, and only about “30 something” inhabitants. Palmerston has unique history - In 18...
Crazy waves leaving Maupiti rocks Aquarius! The bad weather, and large waves continue during the 110 mile overnight crossing from Maupiti to Maupiha'a… This is one of the toughest crossings we have ever made!!! For a few hours after arriving the Maupih...
Maupiti is one of the less visited islands in Society Islands group with a tricky narrow passage to get in & out. As we came with little expectations for this place we had a pleasure to discover local artist and visit his exquisite house. We also did s...
We finally arrived to the "Pearl of French Polynesia" - Bora Bora... The colors are hypnotizing and so are the views... We have really good time just two of us and with our friends... Famous Bloody Mary's are worth the hype so much that we go there couple ...
This will be quite different but very requested video - a random day in our lives, which we filmed only couple of days ago in New Zealand.
We were very lucky to pick this day for this as it was a nice day with a pleasant surprise at the end.
As I disclos...
We arrive to Raiatea, where bunch of fun stuff is waiting for us: Awesome anchorages, Biggest Marae in French Polynesia and cool river cruise, where we stopped for local groceries along the way. Then we moved on to Taha'a where its simpy so beautiful that ...
This time we explore beautiful Huahine island, where we met very talented painter Melanie and her fiancé Cesar gave us the tour of the island. Unfortunately Zivile was still sick so I did most of the tour with SV Bella Marina - Peter & Octavia. So muc...
We reposting our 1 year live aboard Q&A that we recorded LIVE. This is PART II. Since it was our first (and probably only LIVE) recording it was wayyy to long and had technical glitches, but I believe it also had great information. To make all things e...

After leaving Marquesas we sail to our next destination - Tuamotus archipelago. Our first atoll - Raroia, which is famous as Kon Tiki landed there in 1947. That was great place where we had so much fun and met many amazing people. One of the most beautiful...
Previously we visited Hiva Oa and Fatu Hiva and this time on our map Tahauta, Ua-Pou and Nuku Hiva which are as awesome as previous islands with some unexpected visits and views! We loved Marquesas and friendly local people and could not say enough good wo...
