Navigating at night becomes nearly impossible for sailors. Unmarked fishing buoys create hazards, turning the dark ocean into a minefield. #Sailing #NightSailing #BoatingSafety #OceanNavigation

This week, Mitsu's 91-year-old mother, Chiharu, has joined us in Buren Bay. It's only the second time I've met her. The first was a few months ago when she came sailing with me aboard *Wahine*. Since then, Mitsu has become Wahine's owner and skipper, while I've remained here continuing my research into what it means to age well in this tiny island community. Day One After the long drive from the airport, we spent the evening sitting outside around an unlit campfire. It was simply too warm to light it. Chiharu picked up her ukulele, we sang together, shared a meal, and enjoyed one another's company. But what stayed with me wasn't the music. It was watching a 91-year-old mother and her adult son enjoying each other's company as genuine friends. I often think about the difference between a linear view of life and a circular one. In a linear world, older people gradually move to the edges. Here, Chiharu was neither being looked after nor simply being included. She was right at the center of the circle. Tomorrow: Radio Taiso at 6:30 a.m. PS Spending a week with Chiharu is something I've genuinely been looking forward to. She still lives independently, and over the coming days, you'll discover why she's become such an inspiration to me, from her music and morning routines to the way she relates to family, friends, and the community around her. These are simply small observations from everyday life. But perhaps it's in ordinary moments like these that we begin to understand why some people age so well.

These are the Superlight versions of Brompton’s folding bikes, which, with several structural components and accessories made from titanium, weight nearly a kilogram less than the all-steel versions. Very handy. An advantage of the Garcia Exploration 45 over other yachts is that when sitting on the hard it is not as high off the ground. The centreboard is raised and the boat is resting on its hull at the front, with a low support at the rear. Some of the keel boats around us are scary high. Eek!

While the divers are busy creating their bubble rings, the #seaturtle is not bothered at all and just enjoys his coral lunch. Just a little fact about sea turtles, This threatened species possesses a powerful jaw and an incredibly resilient beak. The rough, fibrous structure of seagrass and algae can be torn apart by it. Because their teeth are designed to grind, they can effectively eat by using this motion to break down the tough fibers of the plants into smaller bits that are easier to digest. Would you like to witness sea turtles feeding in the wild? Come along on a unique diving excursion with us to see the amazing and captivating #marinelife in Komodo National Park.
