We've been hauling out our 33 year old sailboat, Esper, since 2004 (in south-east Asia since 2014) so we have plenty of experience. But with all that practice, and no matter how competent the yard, it's always somewhat nerve-racking.

Gentlemen never sail to windward. Does that mean they only ride a bike downhill too?

If the aphorism is true, then there are no gentlemen aboard SY Esper. Because for the next 100 miles or so w...

"It was like someone had opened the floodgates. We got whirlpools and gushes of water, masses of water, coming all around the boat. So much so that the boat was actually spinning 360 degrees." Jamie's description of our first night at anchor in central Sul...

Here, in the Gulf of Tomini, the charts show few marked anchorages. There is no pilot or cruising guide with a nice list of places to drop the hook, and this seldom-visited area isn't on any regular sailing passage. So how do we find a safe place to anchor...
We have 850 miles of sailing to go, and we need fresh food to get us there, so we must find our boat supplies in the main town of Wakai. But first, the spectacular Togean Islands, situated slap bang in the center of the Coral Triangle, are a diving paradis...
The waterspout appeared dead ahead. Now down to two and a half knots, worried and panicking, we wondered what the chattering noise coming from our engine could be...

Sailing at NIGHT in Indonesia is full of danger, and we're about to embark on one of our longest single journeys since 2019. Although only 130 nautical miles (a relatively short passage by cruising...
We've run out of money, and there is no sign of an ATM that will take our foreign cards. So now what?
Jamie's on a mission, and looking for a way to get our hands on some cash in the remotest villages of Indonesia turns out to be a nigh-on impossible task....
Perfect lazy sailing, good visibility and settled sea state. But it didn't last so we ducked into a nearby anchorage and discovered a community of people who had never seen a sailboat before!

09:23 ENGINE FLOODS WITH SEAWATER!
Jamie went down below to find the bilge pump running. He opened up the engine bay and there was water everywhere; the engine bay was filling and the bilge pump wasn't coping with the strain.

Two days to go before we leave Lembeh. But we have problems with the generator, and we wonder if we can get help from local friends or maybe somewhere in Manado?

Yes, we're being battered by storms again this week in Sulawesi, but not before we relax with the friendliest dolphins, take in the heart-stopping views and get the sails out.
Then, as the visibility disappeared, and while we were getting ready to drop t...

We were excited to do a wireless, full-HD live broadcast around the boat this morning. The tests we'd done with our FTBMates all worked perfectly, so isn't it typical that when we eventually go public it all goes tits up? This is a quick apology for this m...
