As winter closes in on Corner Brook, Newfoundland, Arabella is almost ready to settle in for the season. With most of the harbor cleared out, it’s time for some of those quiet but satisfying projects that make cruising easier down the road.
In this epis...
A little slower pace this week but it is our first weekly release since coming back from our break. Our September trip turned out successful in a way we didn't expect. Since boat parts hadn't arrived in the mail before our flight we came empty handed. This...

Now that summer is coming to a close, it’s time for us to start winterizing our homebuilt wooden sailboat for the cold weather to come. Over-wintering in Newfoundland—on a sailboat, nonetheless—is a bold move, and one that we need to prepare for.
As...
This week, we’re moving our adventures from the ocean to the mountains: it’s time for a backpacking trip in Gros Morne National Park! With Akiva in tow, our plan is to backpack the combined Northern and Long Range Traverse. This challenging route is la...
Engines don't like to sit and boats don't like to be left alone... Sometimes they have to but with some elbow grease they come back! We weren't sure if we were going to recover from this one but by the end of the day there's a glimmer of hope. Ride the rol...
Welcome back to Newfoundland aboard Arabella! This week, we’re traveling by land and by sea, making our final passage before winter settles in for the season.
While Robin took the ferry back to Nova Scotia to shuttle the truck, I single-handed Arabella ...
Much longer than planned we are finally able to return to Rediviva. She's been waiting in Mexico while we had to help family. We still need to sort out how to get back to cruising full time but it was extremely relieving to be aboard, even if only for a we...
