Whilst tackling the job of recommissioning one of the built in water tanks Andy discovers water seeping into the boat. It looks like we have water trapped in the core of the hull. Is this going to cause a huge problem down the line?

Hello! In this video we sail from Guadeloupe up to Antigua - first stop: Jolly Harbour. We then make our way across to Falmouth Harbour and after a sketchy ride towing the dinghy we go to the famous BBQ evening at Shirley Heights on a Sunday. We set sail for Green Island but after struggling our way...
This place is so awesome, we should not tell you were it is!

We are finishing up a round of boat work while we wait to go south. Hiding out in Brazils best kept secret hurricane hole. We show you how we catch drinking water, how w...
In this video, we start off in Las Palmas in Gran Canaria and get on with some boat jobs - including rigging a kicking strap after our vang breaks again, running a third reef in the main sail and redoing our entire bed and mattress set up due to having found mold under our mattress. We then go on a ...
A big mistake. This is how we fix problems while sailing in the open ocean. We are headed toward the equator, there is nothing for thousands of miles but blue water.

Follow us in this week’s episode of sailing CUBA as we try to invent something to keep connected to the WWW, evade some bad weather coming our way and stumble over a potentially dangerous object, on our search for a very s...
We got ourselves some wheels for a day! But before that, we leave a very rolly anchorage and almost lose our means to pay. A traveler's tip not just for fellow sailors or cruisers: Never use a free-standing ATM! – Especially, when you are low on fuel.
Follow us in this episode as we leave our ...
In this video, we head to a new anchorage in Mallorca to escape some swell. Turns out it's beautiful, it's nestled in a national park and has crystal clear water. We make the most of our time here doing every activity possible and soaking up the Mediterranean life on anchor here. We practi...
Hey and welcome back. In this video, we continue exploring Formentera island. We have a rough wake up call on Lars's birthday but try to make up for it and we walk inland to a lagoon & nature reserve on the island. We tackle some boat jobs, make focaccia in the rain, and then cycle to the q...
Hey and welcome back! In this video, we have a serious deja vu as we haul out again for a second time in 4 months. After experiencing some damage to our hull, we have no choice but to lift the boat out again to get it fixed. We make the most of it to get on with some other big jobs that are easier t...
Hey! Welcome back. In this video, we're in the marina in Almerimar (filmed in November - we've got some delay on the videos but slowly but surely catching up to real time). We're happy to be back in the water after having hauled out. We got our new interior cushions made, we buy some ...
Hello and welcome back! In this video we set sail from Moraira on the eastern coast of Spain. We head straight down to Almerimar, which is about 210 nautical miles away or a 2 day sail away.
We enjoy the slow pace of life at sea, we watch some movies, play games, hang out on the bow, do some bakin...
Ahoy! In this video, we are in Mallorca and wondering about what our next steps will be and where we'll go next to take shelter before some strong winds.
We eventually set off for Ibiza, doing a night passage over and bake bread on the way. We get to our protected anchorage in Ibiza, end up r...
Hola from Menorca! In this video, we spend a few days in Mahon, the capital of Menorca, and learn all about its rich history (including some fun facts like that mayonnaise originated here)! We do a big food shop and track down a metal worker to help us fix our vang (that broke on our passage across ...
Hello! Join us as we leave Sardinia in this video and embark on our 2 day passage across to Menorca, the first of the Balearic Islands coming from the East. We have a hard time getting comfortable as we're close-hauled or close-reached the whole way, so we get used to the boat being heeled over...
Ciao! In this video, we’re in Sardinia and we sail to the incredibly unique and odd island of Asinara just off the northwestern coast of Sardinia. Asinara is pretty much uninhabited, and is a national park, home to lots of wildlife (including donkeys, and a rare population of white albino donkeys) b...
