Cruising sailors tend to prefer things like swimming from their boat; Racing sailors prefer the water on top of their boat instead; They will spend as much money on sails as their boat is worth; They will sail so close together you could jump to the next boat; They will remove their dodger so they can fully enjoy all that water on top of their boat; They will crawl onto a pitching foredeck to lash down a sail because they don’t have a furler; They will climb onto the boom to install a reef line so they don’t have to slow the boat down; They will fly a spinnaker in 20 knots of wind or more; They won’t even bother taking down their own spinnaker, and will just let God do it; And they will do all of this whether it’s day or night, regardless of whether they can see or not; All for getting their boat’s name engraved on some stupid trophy, and getting some yellow flags to boast about their accomplishments, and for some unforgettable moments with friends - priceless!!!

Roses are pretty… but drifting side by side underwater feels different. This Valentine’s Day, here’s to shared descents, quiet moments beneath the surface, and memories made where words aren’t needed. Just you, your person, and the ocean around you. Footage captured aboard The Oracle Yacht, where every journey becomes a little more meaningful. Celebrating love, above and below the surface❤️✨🌊 #liveaboardindonesia #oracleyacht #yachtcharterindonesia #divingindonesia #luxuryliveaboard

I`m hungry and I cannot get back on my boat! The Tidal variation is only two meters, but I leave enough slack in the lines to accommodate fluctuations. Which is fine, except when the winds pick up when I go shopping for supper. It is also high tide, so the mooring lines are slackest. Not complaining, though. I consider it twenty minutes well spent from an exercise point of view. It helped work up an appetite.
