Welcome to Gramvousa Island, the first landfall when sailing from the Peloponnese to Crete. This island is renowned not only for its breathtaking beaches and historic Venetian fortress but also for the mysterious shipwreck rusting along its shore. The wreck is that of the Dimitrios P, a cargo ship that ran aground near Gramvousa in January 1968. The exact cause of the stranding remains a topic of speculation. Some suggest the ship was overwhelmed by severe weather and rough seas, while others believe it was abandoned by its crew due to mechanical issues. Whatever the true story, today the wreck forms an iconic image in the turquoise waters surrounding the island.

"Shallow draft is at the foundation of how we use our Hinckley. With only a few feet of water at our dock at low tide, a Talaria 43 MKII was the only boat that we could keep at our home. And this is where life aboard our Hinckley starts. Today we were able skim quickly across shallow areas without appendage anxiety to sneak ashore at this forgotten beach. We let the kids step off the swim platform and easily explore the beach; no one else would think of coming here, I can’t believe we’re the only ones here. Only on a Hinckley."

💀 Full Cursed Adventure: https://bit.ly/3pA9kQZ The sailboat we were on sailing the bahamas was clearly cursed, but who knew the dinghy would also be cursed! The one day we had the engine running, the dinghy started sinking too! But we didn't die, so that's good. https://youtube.com/shorts/z9Rf5jsdJUg Sailing With A Cursed Dinghy #sailing #dinghy #travel

A few final days in Japan before an early flight south. This short video captures some familiar New Year sights: Mount Fuji from the train, the Sumida River and Tokyo Skytree, and the crowds taking part in the annual tradition of visiting a shrine. After five weeks away overseas with family, and finishing the manuscript of my latest book during a brief return to Tokyo, I’m heading back toward my boat, Wahine, in remote Uken Inlet on Amami Island. A small pause before the year gathers speed — and before the next chapter begins. #NewYearInJapan, #SlowTravel, #writerslife #PacificSolo, #JapanMoments, #ArtOfCommunity
