Toni and I continue our winter ritual and went to check on “Moments in Time”. What in the hell were we thinking? It is cold, it is windy, and it is snowing. It is days like this that make us question our sanity. Anyway, I think we learned our lesson. Next winter we will be where the palm trees sway, the bikinis abound, and the rum is plentiful. Feel free to comment and let us know your thoughts. Subscribe and share the adventure! Become part of the conversation by liking https://www.facebook.com/SV.MomentsInTime/

"We’re Ryan and Poppy — and this is Once Upon A Reef." In this documentary series, we sail through the Solomon Islands' Western Province, showcasing its unique culture, deep-rooted traditions, and the raw island way of life. With over 50 meters of visibility, we dive deep into some of the clearest waters on earth—but life here is about more than just the view. On a tight budget, we survive off the ocean and what we’ve brought to trade. If you’re into raw adventure, sustainable living, and untold island stories — hit subscribe. The Solomon Islands are one of the last places on earth where time seems to stand still. Over the course of this series, we navigate everything from the world's largest saltwater lagoon to remote atolls in the middle of the open ocean. It’s a journey of extreme highs and challenging lows—from volcanic cooking and secret blue holes to engine failures in crocodile territory and experiencing a our first cyclone on the boat in a place that should have never had one. Coming up in this season: Sustainable Living: Learning to forage, hunt, and trade for our daily needs. The Wild: Close encounters with hammerheads, sea turtles, and saltwater crocodiles.

Tom Burton (AUS) has won Olympic gold in the Men's One Person Dinghy after a tense pre-start battle with Tonci Stipanović (CRO). Even if Stipanović let gold slip from his grasp, he has still won Croatia's first ever medal in Olympic sailing. Sam Meech (NZL) took bronze. With the Australian being the only sailor who could threaten Croatian gold, Stipanović engaged Burton in an aggressive duel before the start. However the match racing tactic backfired as the Australian turned the tables on his rival, with Stipanović given a 360 degree penalty by the jury for failing to keep clear of Burton. Stipanović was a long way last off the start line and had to play catch-up during the race. Burton was near the back too, and Meech was looking to capitalise on the situation with the New Zealander threatening Australia for the silver. However, Burton moved through the fleet to finish third across the line while Stipanović never recovered from his bad start. Robert Scheidt (BRA) didn't manage to win a record sixth Olympic sailing medal in front his home crowd, but he still gave the spectators on Flamengo Beach something to cheer about as the Brazilian legend sailed across the finish in first place.
