This video was taken by a friend as we're approaching a favorite bay. We're reaching down the wind, so our boards are up to reduce drag. This is our prototype Split Junk Rig (SJR), an innovation by Slieve McGalliard. Camber and set are adjustable via lacings along top and bottom of each panel. Later, we sewed the final sail to match. The mizzen (aft) sail stays flat for decisive maneuvering and quiet weather-cocking.

We just sailed 2,250 nautical miles from Chile to Panama and Zambezi gave it her all ⛵️ So did we. But here’s the truth: offshore sailing will always find your weak points. Here’s what didn’t survive: ⚙️ Steering wire 💥 Spinnaker (luckily @rollytaskersails_official is already working on our replacement 🙏) 🔩 Genoa shackle 🧩 Main sheet bloc 🛠 Engine acceleration lever 🐟 …and a shameful number of fishing lines 😅 No major damage, just a lot of salty lessons and toolbox hours. This is why preparation matters and why we carry way more spare parts than we used to. Tell us what’s broken on your longest passage? Or what spare would you never leave without? ⚓️ Want to feel more prepared? Comment “offshore” and we’ll send you our Offshore Sailing Bundle—real lessons, real tools, zero fluff. Stay Salty!

Guest spaces include the impressive Gajah Mada lounge and dining room on the main deck, which features beautiful copper bas-reliefs depicting historic maritime scenes. There is a spacious sun deck with 360-degree views and an alfresco dining area for lazy lunches and late-night dinners.

Sleeping 12 guests in a clever and contemporary 7-cabin layout, she includes an impressive full-beam 120sq.m master suite whichdelivers 270-degree views. Another smaller-sized master cabin of 35sq.m is located aft of the main deck. The remaining guest cabins are located on the lower deck and comprise 4 double cabins. Fit-out to premium resort standards, each benefit from its own lounge area and en suite with jet shower. There is an additional smaller twin cabin forward lower deck for kids' use only (available at an additional cost).
