In this episode land on an island in the beautiful Whitsundays that was once home to a fancy vacation resort, but has since been left desolate after a tragic cyclone tore through. Too expensive to repair, it sits there, waiting for a group of pirates to arrive and run a muck...

It's no secret Nakama’s canvas work needs some serious love. A boom bag has been on our wish list for years and our poor old dodger...

There’s a great pub nearby at Dingo Beach, but unfortunately we can’t stop there because the tides are not in our favour.
A lovely sail…

Until next time…

Having a brief break from boat work to do a photography job for a friend, and took the additional opportunity to A) tackle Hamilton Island's Passage Peak, and B) test the Time Warp function on the new GoPro Hero 9.
It's Hyperlapse made super easy and without a gimbal!
Here's a quick...
Sit back and relax as we take you on a delightful bush walk up to the Hill Inlet lookout. Hill Inlet is at the northern end of Whitsunday Island and the view of Whitehaven Beach and the Inlet is absolutely breathtaking. So, it’s no surprise that Whitehaven Beach is often described as one of the best...
We leave the unimpressive Shaw Island and have a wonderful sail to Chalkies Beach which is opposite the world famous Whitehaven Beach in the Whitsundays.
The planning for this trip is very intense as Magnus does the maths and checks it twice to ensure that we make it through the Solway Passage safe...
While we wait out the bad weather, we take the opportunity to look around Cid Harbour. We take Peanut out along the banks to explore the beautiful scenery. We find so many waterfalls which are abundant due to the days and days of relentless rain.
We can’t stay here forever, so once a small weather ...
After spending quite a few very rainy days sitting out the weather in Gulnare Inlet we decide to just go for it and take Peanut up the creek in search of a potential cyclone bolt hole. It’s absolutely beautiful with mangroves, Norfolk pines and giant fruit balls!
The rain just doesn’t cease.
We ha...
We leave Stonehaven Bay with a much cleaner bottom and sail across to Happy Bay.
We don’t get to stay there long because there’s a storm brewing and we need to find a more protected anchorage.
We can’t go forward because the forecasted winds are going to change direction and we will end up on a le...
We've been taking advantage of the latest weather window to carry on chasing the leaks.
This means it's been all about deck work on the good ship Brilliant II in the last 2 weeks.
But while the interior may have stalled, the work topsides will be well worth it in the end.
Like all boat wo...

We are having issues with the water pump so Magnus pulls it apart to see what the problem is and hopefully to fix it.
It’s very windy in the Whitsundays with extreme gale force winds reaching up to 46 knots and we’re out in it!
But, it’s just great to be sailing.
Thanks for watching.
