While snorkeling at Fitzroy Island near Cairns, the underwater sound of the passing Humpback Whales singing was almost deafening. This video was recorded on a standard GoPro, in a case, and had not been modified in any way.

OCC members, Fred and Sandy onboard their catamaran Dakota Dream, were anchored at Antigua when this happened to their generator. It seems someone forgot to turn off the hot-wired raw water pump for their Northern Lights M673, 6 kw generator when they left the boat for Happy Hour. Upon returning to their boat, they realized the problem and shut down the still running raw water pump, too late. The generator was hydro-locked. This is what happens when an injector is removed to get raw water out of the cylinders. Ouch! Diesel and salt water sprays everywhere!!!

It's getting warmer and greener and nature seems at peace with all flowers blossoming and birds flying and singing all day long.. At night there's an orchestra from the frogs 🐸 and crickets 🦗, sometimes I think they compete for the loudest singer trophy 🏆 😂😂 This place is so reach in biodiversity that it's painful to believe that it's surrounded by marinas from which a lot of pollution, toxicity is generated. But that wouldn't be enough, so there are fish farms at every corner of each bay along the channel and next to villages and towns (please give thoughts on swimming in this area or any swimming area that's packed with fish farms...even hotels put on signs that you are swimming at your own responsibility...and they don't mean "bodyguardless" beaches) . We humans are really something. Getting back to happy thoughts now... Some flamingos 🦩🦩 were also paying some occasional visits behind the marina when we were at the yard (they are like me, when the temperatures drop they fly back to the south..only I don't have wings to follow..if I had 😂😂) and some cows 🐄 too would take their turn to model by Oshun's spot and grace us with their presence... The land turtles no longer felt intimidated by our presence and stay still expecting to become invisible 😅 now they even walk towards me, if the fence wasn't there they would walk to my lap I guess 😁🥰 Now in the water, we see dolphins 🐬 too messing with the work of the fishermen around the bay (these two will be enemies for infinity and beyond I guess 🤷🏿‍♀️). Sweet life, it's all around us, let's take care of it. #shorts

S/V Plot Twist is an Australian-built 2005 Seawind 1160 Deluxe catamaran, for sale by owner. She was built for fun and built out for long-term adventuring. With 900ah of LiFePO batteries, 3000w Victron inverter/charger, 1600w of solar sitting atop a brand new custom arch, and a custom OC Tender 330, you can spend weeks exploring secluded anchorages or partying with your new cruising friends. The Seawind 1160 is an award-winning catamaran, and the brand has only increased in popularity as cruising influencers like Ruby Rose and Tula's Endless Summer have commissioned theirs, recognizing the vessels' thoughtful features and blend of performance and comfort. Already an easy cat to sail short-handed, we've added a permanent 3rdreef, avoiding the necessity of removing the first reef and transferring lines in rough weather. With a wait time of 18-24 months for a new Seawind 1160, this may be your best chance to get a fully-equipped model at a fraction of the price. Step aboard. Sail away. We've got everything you need. https://www.catamaransite.com/catamarans-for-sale/seawind-1160-deluxe/
