There’s an undeniable, almost primal pull we feel toward the ocean. It's a need that's been studied and given a name: *Blue Mind,* a term coined by marine biologist Wallace J. Nichols to describe the meditative, calming state we enter when near water. The vastness of the sea provides a powerful escape from the clutter of daily life, offering a sense of perspective that can make our own problems feel smaller. Beyond the mental relief, there are tangible physical benefits. The rhythmic sound of waves and the fresh, salty air—which contains a higher concentration of **negative ions**—can lower stress hormones, improve mood by boosting serotonin levels, and even promote better sleep. This is why a simple walk on the beach or a few minutes spent watching the tide ebb and flow can feel so restorative. Our connection to the ocean is also deeply rooted in our need for activity and inspiration. It provides a natural playground for everything from swimming and sailing to quiet reflection and artistic expression. Ultimately, the ocean gives us a chance to disconnect from the modern world and reconnect with a fundamental part of ourselves—a need for tranquility, wonder, and the powerful embrace of nature.

New episode! We make it to North Cape—without sails this time! As you know, we’re on our bike, and we’ve now officially reached 71° North. While we’re here at North Cape, we run into someone who biked all the way from Cape Town to here—Cape to Cape. Super impressive! After soaking in some absolutely stunning views, we head to Tromsø, a place we last visited after our Svalbard/Spitsbergen adventure—when we sailed all the way up to 80° North. Yeah, that was pretty epic too. We take a stroll along the dock and relive memories from sailing into Tromsø back in 2022 and longing to get back on the boat again!

Gail and I took the MAC up the lake and up the Waikato to almost the Whakamaru Dam. It took a few seconds from still to get on the plane, but the little 15hp performed really well. I guess with fuel and fishing gear and lunch etc - we had 250kg aboard + 200Kg boat and motor. Top speed 35 kmh.
