For centuries sailors have navigated their way across the oceans by celestial navigation or nautical astronomy - using a sextant with the sun, moon, planets, and stars. For the modern sailor, it is essential when crossing oceans as back up to the modern and much relied upon electronic navigation. If you are curious about how to use a sextant or have taken the RYA Yachtmaster or Ocean Theory courses, or are even self-taught, our celestial sailing weekends are ideal offering both an introduction and a refresher. All are welcome. A big advantage is that you learn in a small group, under the supervision of an expert instructor. The weekends involve sailing along the south side of the Isle of Wight and back up through the Needles. A beautiful area to sail whilst offering ample opportunity to practice using the sextant.

This lazy looking titan triggerfish is not even swimming while it is being cleaned! It wedges itself in the bars of the coral plantation structure and just relaxes! Very funny to watch! This was filmed at the coral garden by our sister resort Papua Explorers. This coral garden is part of a coral restoration project by our Foundation, Raja Ampat SEA Centre.

Think you know what's inside your boat? Think again. Bolsa core might seem cheap and easy, but it absorbs water, causing serious damage over time. Switch to foam core for durability and peace of mind—your boat deserves better! 🛥️💧 #BoatMaintenance #catamarans #multihullsailing #cruising #shorts
