#shorts Short clip from episode 68 taken at Raft Point where we find a humpback whale playing in the bay, lazily rolling around before breaching with a huge splash.

We are Ziggy and Nat, a couple who not so long ago knew nothing about sailing. Fast forward few years and we are proud to say we know a thing or two about sailing, we bought a boat and now we are refitting that boat with a plan to leave the life we know behind. The RYA Start Yachting was our first course. We loved it and wanted more. At that time we had no idea how big the community of boaters is. We met fantastic people on each and every course we did. For the first time since we moved to the UK we felt like we were part of something. The sailing community was welcoming, friendly and so inspiring. We found a lifestyle we knew we wanted for ourselves. We bought Squalo a 1981 Oyster 39”, the day after our Yachtmaster Offshore exam. She ticked so many boxes of things we wanted from a blue water cruiser. But she was neglected, and although we had no experience in boat refit, “surely, it can’t be that difficult.” we thought. So here we are. Putting blood, sweat and at times even tears into our yacht Squalo. Because not only she will be a vessel taking us to the most remote places on earth.. she will become our floating home for many years to come. We are documenting our experiences during the refit and sharing this journey with others.

Named after one of the brightest of stars, the William Fife III schooner ALTAIR’s near mythical status in the classic yacht world is all for very good reason - this yacht has become the standard-bearer for the cause of authenticity since her landmark restoration in 1987. https://www.sandemanyachtcompany.co.uk/yacht/718/ALTAIR While important as the yacht that started what has become the classic yacht revival, that role is as nothing to her own status at the top of this hierarchy. ALTAIR is the ultimate vintage yacht – and surely one of the world’s most beautiful works of mind and hand. Always the darling of the classic regatta fleet and often winning her class, in more recent years she has succeeded in paying homage to her original owner’s unfulfilled desire to safely sail to the South Sea Islands. Her dimensions have allowed for the modern comforts that a smaller classic will not; all discreetly concealed and allowing her to cruise anywhere. Above all, she is blessed with the spirit engendered by her original designer, the incomparable William Fife III. As one of the very few classic yachts of her vintage afloat with unbroken Lloyd's ✠100A1 classification, having passed survey again with flying colours in 2021, ALTAIR is in her element - as ready to cruise the world as she is for racing.
