Before we untie the lines and chase the horizon, there’s a whole ritual that happens behind the scenes. ⚓ Engine check ⚓ Weather forecast ⚓ Fuel & water levels ⚓ Safety gear inspection ⚓ Navigation systems ready ⚓ Lines, sails & rigging secured Out here, freedom comes with preparation. Every departure starts long before we leave the dock. Ready to sail? 🌅 #SailingLife #BoatLife #Liveaboard #OceanAdventure
It's exciting, learning a new sailing system that'sdifferentfrom our previous boats: Matilda& Galactica! Today was Sail day!!! We needed to fully function check both primary sails before heading out. we have a 50 mile sail to Roanoke Island. #boatlife #sliceoflife #boatmaintenance #SailingtheGalaxSea
We are in the direct path of tropical cyclone Vaianu as it heads for New Zealand’s north island but we’re hoping that our preparations will be enough as we get our boat ready in the yard for the weather to deteriorate throughout the day. We’ve tied the boat down to concrete blocks and stored all our solar panels and things that were underneath the boat in a shed so that they are protected. Here we go!
The Royal Malta Yacht Club hosted its second race of the 2025 season on Saturday evening, when the Thomas Smith Triple Handed Night Race took place. The short handed race began in very light winds, with a shifty breeze and an easterly swell setting the stage for a testing night on the water. As the fleet made its way up the coast, towards the tuna pens outside St. Paul’s Bay, competitors had to navigate higher angles, gybe frequently, and deal with unpredictable wind conditions, particularly close to the fish farms which had to be navigated by most in pitch dark.
