We're finally sailing! Without any official sailing school lessons or courses, we have been teaching ourselves how to sail. We both started from zero without any sailing experience when we bought Ujud. Over the time of ownership, reaching this point has been a relatively slow process in comparison to the many sailors we encounter in person. We live aboard our small sailboat and it's taken time to gain confidence about the very many things that sailing involves. It's nice for future us to be able to look back to today's achievement as a couple, we are sailing with both the mainsail and the Genoa. Both sails are reefed down so that we're not overpowered. Our teachers have been: Petr Šimon Jana Šimonová James Khoo Wan Azuar Bill Robinson AU Wei Eric Oh #24hourtravellers #selftaughtsailors #sailingcouples #sailboats #hallbergrassymonsun31 #boatlife #sailMalaysWe're finally sailing!

Prepare to embark on an extraordinary underwater odyssey with Dr. Adrian Munguia-Vega to join a groundbreaking expedition for the fourth consecutive year. This isn't just any diving trip – it's a thrilling plunge into the heart of deep-sea marine biodiversity, where science meets adventure in the pristine waters of the Revillagigedo Archipelago. You'll be at the forefront of cutting-edge marine research, wielding the power of non-invasive environmental DNA (eDNA) to unlock the hidden secrets of the archipelago's biodiversity. Picture yourself as a scientific detective, collecting water samples that hold microscopic traces to the presence of elusive marine species. With each sample, you're contributing to a groundbreaking ecological baseline that's reshaping our understanding of this underwater paradise. But the true adventure lies in the unexplored depths. Brace yourself as we deploy state-of-the-art sampling devices into the abyss, plunging up to 300 meters into mysterious marine canyons and never seen underwater seascapes. These high-tech marvels, equipped with depth recorders and video cameras, will be your eyes and ears in a realm few humans have ever witnessed. As we go deeper, you'll discover that the twilight zone between 80-280 meters harbors a hidden world teeming with life – a parallel universe of biodiversity waiting to be explored. You will also have the opportunity to learn to identify and record up to forty species of fish, sharks and rays as we will be making visual underwater counts of the species to complement and validate the DNA samples. This research is in addition to the diving itinerary and guests can participate as much or as little as they like.

Preparing to set sail in the next day. There are still debris fields from the severe weather so will need to be quite attentive as I leave the inlet
