Living remotely aboard our sailboat in Alaska means finding creative ways to build, repair, and repurpose what the coast gives back. In this episode, we explore an old wilderness ship graveyard and salvage weathered hardwood from a forgotten shipwreck to use inside the Gypsy. What looks like driftwood and debris at first glance turns out to be beautiful old-growth lumber filled with history, character, and saltwater stories. From paddle boarding heavy timber back to the boat to imagining future cabinetry and interior projects aboard our steel schooner, this became one of those unexpected Alaska days that felt equal parts work, treasure hunt, and reflection.

Everyone talks about catamaran comfort, stability, and space… but almost nobody talks about the hidden advantage monohulls have for beginner sailors. In this video, I break down the one thing that completely changed how I view the catamaran vs monohull debate, and why I’m personally planning to buy a monohull in 2027 instead of a catamaran. This isn’t about “real sailors” or tradition. It’s about how boats teach you, how beginners actually learn, and why feedback at sea might matter more than comfort when you’re starting out. If you’ve been debating catamaran vs monohull, especially as a beginner cruiser, this perspective might completely change how you think about the decision. ⚓ Topics Covered: • Catamaran vs monohull for beginners • Why monohulls feel different underway • Heel feedback and seamanship • Self-righting design explained simply • The psychology behind boat choice • Why comfort isn’t always the most important thing #Sailing #Monohull #Catamaran #Liveaboard #Sailboat #Cruising #BeginnerSailing #BoatLife

In this last episode of team interviews of the 2026 season, meet two teams that bring a lot of love-energy to the table - much more than is required when grinding to Alaska.

The award-winning Aquila 50 Sail is setting a new standard for luxury sailing catamarans — combining innovative design, exceptional volume, and true blue water capability into one extraordinary yacht. This is more than a sailing catamaran. It’s a completely reimagined lifestyle on the water. From sunrise coffee in the signature bow cockpit to sunset dinners on the aft deck, every inch of the Aquila 50 Sail was designed to bring people together while delivering the privacy, comfort, and performance owners expect from a world-class luxury yacht. The Aquila 50 Sail replaces the traditional trampoline with a full bow lounge, transforming the forward deck into a true waterfront living space. Aquila’s signature bridge-to-bow staircase creates effortless flow throughout the yacht while maintaining safe, easy movement under sail. Inside, panoramic windows surround the salon with natural light and uninterrupted ocean views. The open galley and signature indoor-outdoor bar connect seamlessly to the aft cockpit, creating an atmosphere built for entertaining, relaxing, and spending meaningful time together on the water. The expansive flybridge offers one of the most impressive lounge spaces in its class, while multiple cabin configurations — including 4, 5, and 6 cabin layouts — provide exceptional flexibility for private ownership, family cruising, or luxury charter operations. Available with traditional diesel propulsion or Aquila’s advanced Hybrid Ocean Drive™ system, the Aquila 50 Sail delivers quiet, efficient cruising with CE Category A offshore certification for serious passage making capability.

Sailing across the Atlantic on a catamaran sounds like the ultimate dream — endless ocean, unforgettable sunsets, and total freedom. But once you leave land behind, everything changes. In this video, we take on the open Atlantic and face the real challenges of long-distance sailing: weather, waves, isolation, and the constant question… what could go wrong?

陪了我4年的 sailboat，今天终于卖掉了。 这艘船陪我度过了很多特别的时刻： 第一次学习 sailing、 第一次在海上过夜、 第一次在船上烤羊肉串、 还有很多夕阳。 其实后来我发现， 我买的从来不只是“一艘船”。 更像是买了一段人生体验。 今天这个视频， 也算是给我这4年的业余航海生活， 做一个完整的告别。 希望你们会喜欢。 #半退休生活 #纽约生活 #帆船 #sailing #FIRE #海外生活 A video about selling my sailboat after 4 years. More than a boat, it was a chapter of life.

In the previous episode, Mark sailed his Cape Dory 36, Swan, solo from Morocco down to Mindelo in Cape Verde. Now on the return leg of his Atlantic circuit he faces the big one - the 2,200-mile trade-wind passage across the Atlantic to Dominica Island in the West Indies. There is no diesel engine. Only a small 6kw electric outboard motor in a custom lazarette well used mainly to enter and depart port. For more videos on preparing his boat for this voyage, check out the Cape Dory 36 Refit Playlist on this channel. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UzLhKzKYoS4&list=PLgXIyWxIta8c0hP2bkFirrvXAq5vkMkp3 Marks blog about his journey from office worker to full-time sailor is at: https://tanken.gallery/ AtomVoyages.com

Day 2 of our over nighter sees us sail off towards one of the most dangerous parts of Anglesey. "The Stacks" come in 2 parts. North Stack which has an angry but smaller area of disturbed sea and the bigger South stack that can see 4M standiung and breaking waves in the wrong conditions. How does our first time around the Stacks go in our little 18 foot boat!!!? 🌐 My new website: https://sailingwithdave.com ❤️ Comments are open, ask anything you want in the comments section! 📢 If you enjoyed this video, then please don't forget to share and let people know about the channel 🔔 Click here to "Subscribe" and never miss a video: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZVuUVKKtVxulmgL3WzejjQ?sub_confirmation=1 #Sailfish 18 #Dinghysailing #MirrorDinghy #Dinghy Cruising

This is the ULTIMATE day boat/fishing machine for the boater who's very clear on his or her mission. If you have had the bigger boats with multiple cabins but now your lifestyle leans more towards days aboard the boat instead of nights. Or if you just want a platform that's super flexible on the number of guests you can accommodate the the sea state you can still go out in while keeping your guests dry and protected then the Grady White Freedom 415 is that boat. While underway she absolutely behaves like a big yacht when crossing swells and parting waves. But from an operational perspective she's still a vessel that a solo operator could manage no worries. This I believe is the secret of these new Dual Console designs. You could be doing a Friday night Corporate Cruise with your work buddies, with your wife and kids having a picnic on Saturday and heading offshore at 5am on Sunday with 6 of your fishing buddies to catch Marlin. In each of these scenarios this Grady will keep everyone dry, comfortable and safe while also enjoying the ride in a wide variety of sea states that this hull will clearly eat up and leave in her wake.

As the successor to a benchmark model, it joins the new generation of Fountaine Pajot Sailing Catamarans, offering a more fluid, more intuitive vision of living at sea. Its lines, volumes and technical choices have been designed to correspond to today’s needs and prolong the pleasure of being on board, day after day.

On Monday in Lorient, Charles Caudrelier and the members of the Gitana Team cast off at dawn, heading out to sea in search of the breeze that would allow this 32-metre, 19-tonne giant to take to the air and make its first flights as the Maxi Edmond de Rothschild. The latest addition to the Gitana fleet had received its first hydrofoil – the starboard one – last week. Since then, the whole team had been hard at work finalising its installation and testing this revolutionary appendage, with a total wingspan of over 10 metres, as quickly as possible. A few hours later, it was off the coast of Belle-Île that Gitana 18 took to the air.

Day 13 & 14 of our offshore passage from the USA to Colombia… After days at sea, the weather forecast suddenly shifts for the worse. What was meant to be manageable conditions turns into a long-lasting storm stretching across the entire Caribbean Sea — leaving us with nowhere to run and no way around it. With 50 knot gusts, massive swell, waves breaking over the boat, and almost no chance to properly rest, the boys take turns steering through the chaos before collapsing into the cockpit completely soaked between watches. This is the raw reality of offshore sailing when the ocean decides otherwise. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ⛵ Support / GoFundMe (HeadSail replacement): After our headsail failed during this passage, a lot of you asked how you could help.

What does it take to prep for extended passagemaking and the liveaboard lifestyle? A lot of hard work, that’s what! And plenty of time spent sourcing all the parts we either broke or need to upgrade. In this episode we focus on electrical system repairs and upgrades, installation of a new Gen3 Starlink system, and dinghy service. The idea, and one that has worked for many years, is to do every single last task on an extensive list before we even launch. This allows us to mostly relax and enjoy the season without nagging failures to deal with.

There is something seriously wrong with the weather. We just had a 3 day holiday weekend - yet it was hot, a light breeze blowing and not a cloud in the sky! So Jetti and I decided to take a gentle cruise in our 30ft Sagitta catamaran to Hope Cove, about 15 miles east of or mooring in Plymouth. We just drifted along, together with a whole variety of different boats. No drama or excitement, so this video just shows the deck layout and some of the interior of our boat. Hope Cove was crowded when we got there so, unusually, we had to anchor in 30ft of water - normally we try for under 10 ft. And very glad we were not on a monohull, they were all rolling rhythmically in the SW swell. Next day we sailed back to Plymouth, a bit more wind so touched 6+ knots at times. Apart from the lack of roll, the other big advantage of a multihull is that we have all round vision when sitting inside (we go "inside" not "down below" on catamarans) Sunday night was spent at one of our favourite anchorages, up the Lynher river, with obligatory BBQ. Then home again on Monday. If only all sailing was like that! As always, no audio on this short video.

Day One was Togetherness. And Symphony. There is a rhythm to every race day. The stillness before the start. The silence when the wind drops. The rush when it fills the sails. And then the quiet of the harbour, the whole family together as the sun sets. Day 1 of the 20th Rendezvous played every note. Three days to go. Today was only the beginning!

Final touches. Sea trials. A toast as the sun sets over Porto Cervo. Everything has been building up to this moment. Today, twelve Southern Wind yachts take to the starting line, ready for the first race of the 20th SW Rendezvous in the breathtaking waters of the La Maddalena archipelago. Meet the fleet: SY Blue: SW108 Kalantis, SW108 Gelliceaux, RP-Nauta 100 Morgana SY White: SW105 Sørvind by Armani, SW96 Sorceress, SW96 Liberty, SW94 Magic Blue, SW100 Grillo Parlante Rendezvous Class: SW82 Grande Orazio, SW100 Freebird, SW100 Starfall, SW105 No Rush Let the racing begin.

The Manly Ferries were choreographing a slow and weaving dance with a pod of whales that were rolling around in Manly Cove late this afternoon - with the whales seeming totally unfazed by the movement around them. No need to head offshore at the weekend to whale watch these days; get two for the price of one on your weekday travels to and from work!

No Electricity, No Problem: The Secret to Baking with Hot Stones 🥥🔥 In the remote villages of the Solomon Islands, "low and slow" isn't just a cooking style—it’s a way of life. In this episode, we step into the kitchen of Kerry and his wife to learn the labor-intensive art of making Traditional Cassava Pudding. This isn't your average recipe; it involves hand-grating fresh tapioca, extracting rich cream from coconuts, and a layering process inside flame-seared banana leaves. The real magic, however, lies in the oven. Forget gas or electricity; here, they use recycled 20L fuel drums and intensely heated stones to create a natural convection oven that rivals any modern appliance. We watch as the locals bake fresh bread and slow-cook our pudding for over 12 hours under a mound of rocks and leaves. While the fire does its work, we discover a surprising food: Mangrove Seeds. We learn the meticulous process required to make these bitter seeds edible—a true testament to the resourcefulness of the Solomon people.

After spending a week anchored at beautiful Lanyard Cay in the Bahamas, I finally got a short weather window to sail north toward Green Turtle Cay in the Abacos - solo aboard Mirage. The highlight of this episode is definitely the Lanyard Cay cut. With a strong easterly wind and some breaking waves at the entrance, I had one very honest question in my mind: Am I doing something really f@(#!ng stupid? :) Solo sailing makes every decision feel bigger. There’s no crew to double-check the plan, no one else at the helm, and no one to blame if things go wrong. But Mirage handled it beautifully, pushed through the cut, and once outside we had a fantastic sail in 25–28 knots of wind across the stunning blue waters of the Bahamas. Later, I passed the famous - and sometimes very dangerous - Whale Cut, but this time it was unbelievably gentle. No waves, no drama, just smooth water. I ended the day anchored near Green Turtle Cay, where Mirage finally got a chance for a much-needed bottom cleaning. Beautiful sailing, strong wind, blue water, a little fear, and a lot of respect for the sea.

The incredible students from King's College — and it just keeps getting better. From competitive beach games to warm water swims, and epic sailing adventures, this trip had it all. With plenty of time on the water, the students developed their sailing skills through hands-on learning, teamwork, tacking drills, sail handling, and building confidence onboard in all conditions. Watching everyone grow in skill and confidence across the voyage was incredible. Big thanks to the students and staff who brought the energy, enthusiasm, and unforgettable memories to every moment of the journey. ⚓ Teamwork 🌊 Adventure ⛵ Sailing & tacking skills 💙 Memories for life #KingsCollege #SchoolTrip #YouthDevelopment #SailingAdventure #NZSailingTrust #BeachGames #WinterSwim #OutdoorEducation #Teamwork #StudentLife #BonfireNights #AucklandHarbour #LearnByDoing #SailingLife
