This week's been short trips off the boat to try and cling to our sanity mixed with days of checking, working and testing. The chain and anchor are the sort of unlucky issue that you expect as a live aboard cruiser but not what we needed after everything we've been through. Still, we are t...

Get ready for the ultimate Caribbean adventure! We dive into the heart-pounding excitement of boat races at the St. Maarten regatta, where skilled sailors battle it out on the crystal-clear waters. After the sun sets, things heat up at the ultimate after-party, where the energy is as electric as the...
There is no limit to the amount of fun & adventure you can get onto when you put your mind to it! This day I was sitting on my boat, needing an adventure. So I strapped a Subnado on to each arm and went for a wild ride! Diving under my sailboat and ducking boat to boat for protection from danger...
What happens when you strap four Subnado's to your legs..... you get 57.2lbs of underwater thrust! More than enough to be faster than many fish species! AND you can cover far greater distances with greater ease than by swimming alone. This, is a jet powered underwater Adventure!

My old old old mainsail finally tore during an upwind sail when I hit a squall. It was one heck of an experience, and not something you'd normally want to have happen. But, I have a new mainsail on the way soon, and was not worried.
So what now?!? Who do I do with this entire old & used ma...
How far can you take a dinghy..... on ONE 5gal tank of gas? What sort of sea states and ocean conditions can it survive with it's occupant intact and comfortable? What does the ENTIRE island of Saint Martin look like? Well, I was determined to find out with my brand new Highfield 310!
The Hig...
At the season got started, we were still doing a lot of boat projects. These never seemed to end, and I didn’t even make videos about some of them as it seemed like we were looking like a “project boat”.
But then we set off from Antigua to Dutch Sint Maarten, known locally by its airport code SXM....
We’re off to Sint Maarten to get our standing rigging replaced and to pick up our new AB RIB!
Over the years our old Avon 3.1 Hypalon RIB suffered a multitude of problems, but by far the two most serious were having the rubber coating of the Hypalon fabric delaminate from the canvas substrate below...
This week we pull into PDP Marina located in Sint Maarten to do a few boat jobs while working with the local SXM Paws who do amazing work with the street animals!
We bounce around in this episode. We find ourselves in the BVI, using some lost footage that probably should have been in the episodes before James from Zingaro came to visit. That said, on passage from Cooper Island, BVI to Dutch Sint Maarten we suffer a rigging failure that forces us to motor the ...
James has been friends with us now for several years, really since he bought his Oyster 485, a sister boat to Talisman. James is a character and has so much energy it makes you feel lazy. Through his podcasts, live streams, and YouTube Sailing Zingaro episodes, he has created an impressive following...
This footage was filmed in May of 2018 when it was just my son Brenden and myself onboard.. this was our last sail through the Eastern Caribbean as we were documenting all the hurricane recovery progress at all the islands that were destroyed by Hurricanes IRMA and MARIA. Along the way amidst all t...
We start heading back East towards St. Martin for The BucketLust's New Year's Eve route. We pick up a few friends in St. Thomas to make the passage with us, and have another run in with the Coast Guard. This time it's with the Dutch. Enjoy!!!
Huge THANKS to our Patrons for your conti...
In this episode, we head from Guadalupe to Nevis, Sint Maarten/St. Martin, and Anguilla. We get a few jobs fixed in Sint Maarten, get blown back by a passenger jet, and flip our dinghy rendering our outboard motor inoperable...... We have two more guest come aboard for the ride as well.
Huge THANKS...

This is the episode we've all been waiting for... what happened to PACMAN?!? Yes, our old centre console dinghy is sold, and we finally take possession of a new lighter, stronger dinghy made by Highfield Boats that has a double aluminum hull and a new Yamaha 25hp 4-stroke motor... this baby fl...

First glimpses of our trip to St Martin (SXM) to survey the recovery efforts and progress since Hurricane IRMA devastated the islands in September of 2017. This is just a sample of the footage and interviews we have collected during our travels the past few weeks to give you a near real-time glimps...
Our sailing north in the Caribbean has now taken us to SXM, Saint Martin/Sint Maarten. This is the island with two countries in a very small area and it's also the island with a VERY cool airport! We met so many nice people during our time in SXM and we also got to do some boat maintenance on o...
