What to do when a cyclone is heading your way #vaianu #newzealand

We’re watching the weather as tropical cyclone heads right for us here in Whangarei, New Zealand but while we’re waiting, Iain has driven down to Auckland to collect our new fuel tanks. Let’s hope he doesn’t get stuck in any flooding!

With up to 20% off selected voyages in our January Sale, your next wild moment is closer than you think.Because when you find your wild, you find a part of yourself too. @venturesailholidays Dolphins surfacing in the wake. Seabirds wheeling overhead. Quiet anchorages where the only sounds are wind, water and wildlife.On a sailing voyage, nature isn’t something you pass by - it surrounds you. In 2026, you could be watching seals haul out on remote shores, sailing past rugged Devon cliffs, drifting through Denmark’s calm island waters at dawn, or heading out from Longyearbyen into Svalbard’s vast Arctic wilderness. From Greece’s hidden bays to the raw beauty of northern seas, every destination brings moments where the world feels bigger, wilder and wonderfully untouched. Onboard our fully crewed yachts, catamarans and tall ships, you step away from the noise of everyday life and reconnect with nature at its most raw and beautiful - all with the comfort of life at sea taken care of.

Check out our latest video for the full story! In this week's video we share how we danced a sailing tango with the Mistral and went back and forth to try to get somewhere, anywhere at all on our Outremer 52 sailing catamaran. We get rain and 42 knot winds and visit lovely Port Grimaud and Saint-Tropez. ⚓ Join us as we learn what it takes to circumnavigate successfully and make the transition to liveaboard cruising. 🆓Our sailing channel is currently AD-FREE but there are other ways you can support our Outremer 52 project. 👍🏻 Like, subscribe, share our YouTube videos or check out our blog, podcast or social pages below ⭐️Check out our new catamaran sailing blog! https://sailingawen.com 🎧COVERTCASTAWAY PODCAST anywhere you listen or stream directly at https://sailingawen.com/podcast INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/sailingawen/ FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/SailingAwen/ FACEBOOK GROUP: https://www.facebook.com/groups/sailingawen/ 📧EMAIL US: sailingawen@gmail.com 🌎TRACK US at https://www.polarsteps.com/SailingAwen ⛵️AWEN will be featured at the MIAMI BOAT SHOW!

We are Holly and Stephane 🇺🇸🇫🇷 We have made the transition from full-time software professionals from the SF Bay Area to liveaboard sailing explorers who always keep one eye on the weather and our hearts in a song. Our goal is to complete a circumnavigation and we recently transitioned to a performance catamaran and are madly in love with our Outremer 52. We are working with Outremer in France (with the help of Google translate) to launch our boat project and start our journey as sailing vagabonds. While it’s not a race or speedtest, we are doing our first Bluewater crossing this year and we are excited to see AWEN stretch her legs and dance on the water. Join us as we share what we’re learning living without Amazon, (but with Starlink), and attempt this new life of travel and adventure on the ocean. Please be patient with us as we continue to improve our YouTube vlogging skills. Our goal isn’t to make our life a movie, it’s to give back to what others have shared with us, which is why we don’t monetize our channel.

When a builder commits to a true single-piece, foam-filled hull, it’s a statement—and EdgeWater’s SPI construction is the backbone of this 250CC. She delivers that rare fish-family balance: in-floor rod storage, a proper dive door, wide working space, yet refined enough for a smooth cruise or a sandbar afternoon. Standard onboard is the SeaKeeper Ride system with port and starboard transom controllers, a motion-sensing brain module, and integrated power/communication distribution. At 26'3" (8.0 m) LOA with an 8'6" (2.6 m) beam, she’s comfortable, predictable, and easy to handle for a wide range of boaters. 🎬 Watch our full test on BoatTEST.com for performance numbers, handling, and the full features review. https://boattest.com/boats/edgewater/250cc-2026 #EdgeWater250CC #BoatTEST #CenterConsole ng #BoatReview #EdgeWaterBoats
