Episode 8 now out! Sailing Mallorca. Click to watch full episode. Life aboard gives a type of freedom seldom experienced on land. We take our home with us wherever we go. Our small island allows us to be part of a much bigger world. We live by the weather, choosing to move to a new location or stay put depending on what the wind, rain and sea state are doing. Living on the water has given us a deeper connection to these elements as they influence us every day. Home this week 🏠 ⛵️ Cala Escull de ses Vinyoles on the North coast of Minorca 🏝️ #sailing yacht #sailingstagram #sailingtrip #sailingaway #sailinglovers #sailinglife #sailingday #sailingboat #nightsail #sailing #sailingworld #sailingboats #sailingadventure #sailinglifestyle #sailinginstagram #sailaway #bylandandsea #travel #wanderlust #nature #adventure #boatlife #sailingday #lagoon440 #lagooncatamaran #pug #borderterrier #spain #menorca #minorca

It was more like dodgem cars than yacht racing at the first mark of the Craobh to Oban passage race WHYW 2023. The team on the J109 GTR got themselves out of a tight spot by forcing the boat on the port lay line to duck them about 7 or 8 boat lengths from mark. They were then caught out by the fast flowing tide which pushed them well below the lay line. While the racing was tight everyone was playing fair either tacking or gybing there way out of the possible pile up while keeping clear. This is until the last boat on in the line on the port layline came steaming with no overlap at the thee boat lengths to shove it in at the top mark. The team on GTR decided it was better to play in safe on a long race, rounding up to avoid a collision. Sadly the boat which was in another class did not do circles choose instead to sail on as if nothing had happened. There was lots of tight racing across the whole week which made for a great regatta in the Scottish Highlands. The team at Bottom Up Boat hope you are enjoying the action from WHYW 2023.

🇫🇷 Le skipper britannique, même à l'abri derrière les montagnes du cap Finisterre, affronte des conditions musclées. Assurément une fin de Vendée Globe compliquée à gérer. 🇬🇧 Even sheltered behind the mountains of Cape Finisterre, the British skipper is facing some tough conditions. Certainly a complicated end to the Vendée Globe. ------------------------ ➡️ SUIVEZ-NOUS ! // FOLLOW US ! 🔗 Website : www.vendeeglobe.org 📸 Instagram : https://www.instagram.com/vendeeglobe/ 🐦 X FR : https://twitter.com/VendeeGlobe | X ENG : https://x.com/VendeeGlobeENG 🕺 TikTok : https://www.tiktok.com/@vendee_globe 💻 Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/VendeeGlobe 💼 LinkedIn : https://www.linkedin.com/company/vendée-globe/

Usually when we prep a boat for listing, we ask the Sellers to take off their personal items. In this case, it was the exact opposite as "Sappho" is clearly a home on the water, displaying nothing but coziness and warmth! Built by Waterline Yachts in Sidney, these vessels are known for exceptional build quality as confirmed by the 2022 Survey. With an open-plan concept, Sappho is designed with pilothouse styled large windows for maximum natural light without taking up valuable interior space with a seldom used interior helm station. The galley and seating area are surrounded by amazing outside visibility and a step down takes you into the living space for privacy. Topside the decks are large and wide with tons of space for kayaks, paddleboards or bikes and the cockpit is protected from the elements with a custom hard dodger complete with 2 solar panels. Powered by a 55hp Yanmar diesel engine assisted with freshly serviced hydraulic steering, this boat is perfect for offshore sailing or comfortable PNW cruising and live-aboard. Available with a mooring buoy for sub-let in Maple Bay if needed, Sappho is available to view by appointment at our Sidney location. Please contact our Vancouver Island Sales Office at 250-656-5832 to schedule a showing.
