It is the first storm of the season. Hurricane Agatha in the Pacific crossed Mexico into the Gulf (Now the Atlantic Hurricane region) and turned into Tropical Storm One. Heading right to us. It was weak, but you never know if it will stay that way as it moves over the warm Gulf of Mexico water. Ever ridden out a tropical storm or hurricane in your house or boat? What was it like, comment below.

You might be wondering: why mention the airport? What’s so special about it? Well, here’s why. Skiathos, a Greec island at the Sporades islands in the North-West of the Aegan sea, is a relatively small island, yet it has an international airport. And that is exactly what makes it so spectacular. The runway is short and squeezed in between the sea and the built-up area. As a result, aircraft have to approach extremely low. From the water – especially when you’re in the harbour – you see the plane coming straight at you. It flies low over the harbour, sometimes so low that you think it might clip your mast, and then immediately hits the brakes as soon as it touches down on the runway. The first time we experienced this, it really startled us. You hear the sound, look up… and suddenly there’s an aircraft right above you. You rarely see planes flying this low. First there’s a moment of shock, then laughter, and after that you find yourself watching every single landing again 😉. For plane spotters, Skiathos has by now become world-famous. People stand along the road or on the beach to take photos and videos of the landings. We made a video too.

Sailing "Off the Starboard Hull " (teaser) - Ep. 1 - sailing in a Lagoon 400 S2 catamaran This video is about a Canadian couple from Vancouver Island who is planning to sail around the world, untying the lines in August of 2016. Before we start, we will be exploring the beautiful Pacific Northwest and outfitting our Lagoon 400S2, Muskoka, for our offshore adventure. Please feel free to ask any questions or give us advise - we will try our best to answer all your comments. Also, show that you want to share our excitement by liking or subscribing.
