The GLY World Odyssey 500 yachts brought gifts, their own and gifts received from Byond Relief NZ & Rotary Russel island NZ in Opua to be transported to the 10 local communities visited in May 2023. In order to avoid problems, these 'small' gifts were only given after a public event was arranged with the local village leader so everything was done 'in the open' and shared fairly between the local people. To preserve their dignity, the sailors accepted the generous gifts of fresh fruits & local handicrafts given to them. A win-win situation as it should always be! Thanks also to our fund raising patrons who generously donated solar lights (seen in another video) to these communities. This 'mission' was born after the last 2 tropical cyclones and earthquake that hit Vanuatu in March 2023. Thankfully most communities are quite resilient but still need some help in the aftermath of previous cyclones where little help was received because of pandemic restrictions. Thanks to s/v Fou de Bassan for short video.

We’re back! Season 4 “The Battle for Home” starts this Friday….!! Join us as we set off and ride the rollercoaster…ahead of us lie the tidal streams of the Gibraltar Straits, the ever present threat of orcas and trying to stay within the 20m contour, fog and bad weather, the incessant Atlantic swell and prevailing northerlies and the infamous Bay of Biscay. It’s a far cry from the sailing we’ve experienced over the past two years and a journey where we have to fight our individual battles with our fears, anxiety, tiredness, and deal with sea sickness to boot. There are highs too that keep us moving forward as we return to some of our favourite spots in Portugal as well as find some new places to explore. #followintrepidbear #sailing #sail #sailingstories #saillife #liveaboardsailboat #saltlife #sailor #sailinglife #sailingcouple #sailingadventure #sailingtrip #sailingvlog #boatlife

Iž welcomed us with calm vibes, turquoise water, and zero stress. We explored everything from tiny stone streets to quiet beaches where you basically get the sea to yourself. The video is pure summer energy that instantly transports you to this Croatian island vibe.
