Day two highlights from the 2009 Sail Brisbane regatta

Vanuit Alaska zijn we via Vancouver een volledige dag onderweg naar Sydney (met datumgrens 2 dagen). Daar even dagje bijkomen voordat we doorvliegen naar Cairns voor een weekje Rainforest en Reef in North Queensland vanuit het Kewarra Beach resort in Palm Cove.

Day one highlights from Sail Brisbane, the opening round of the 2009 Sail Down Under Series

Behind the scenes look filming in the South Pacific. We travel by airliner, puddle-jumper, tuk-tuk, panga, and dingy to Vava'u, Tonga. It's worth it though, as we get a taste of crystal-clear blue waters, friendly natives, and comfortable trade winds.

Next trip after having enjoyed the real luxury of Tutka Bay was to fly to the real wilderness on the other side of the Cook Inlet to Stonewood Lodge. Sometimes it seems nice to live in a lodge 90 minutes flight from the nearest shop but we still haven't been pushed that far in this crazy world. Must admit that I borrowed some bear pictures from Darlene since the salmon was already gone at the falls and it therefore did not make sense to fly that far south. We did see a lot of bears ourselves in Funnel Creek just south of Iliamna Lake.

A meditative start to a beautiful day at Crescent Lake, near Rockaway Beach on the Oregon coast. Cool dewdrops on lakeside leaves twinkle as the air starts to warm. The sun peaks over the coast range hills, and trees light up with the first light.

Next episode of our float plane training at Alaska Float Ratings in Moose Pass. Now we learned the basics it was time to combine next lessons with views of the amazing scenery in Alaska. In this part we fly, in seperate flights, over both Icefields on Kenai Peninsula. As part of the air safari we stop for the night at Tutka Bay lodge.

Part 2 of our Float Plane lessons in Moose Pass, Alaska

The last couple of days of our stay in Alaska we stayed in the Millenium hotel in Anchorage direct on Lake Hood. Lake Hood is the world's biggest float plane base and it's roaring with activity.

Auf dem 70 sm-Törn von Flensburg nach Heiligenhafen, wird "Kalami Star" am 11. Mai 09, für mehr als eine Stunde von einem Schweinswal begleitet. Mal wurde Kameramann Wilhelm nach Backbord, dann wieder nach Steuerbord gelockt. Immerhin ließ sich das Marsvin (dän.) für ein paar Bilder gut ablichten, bevor es wieder abtauchte. Meine Segelfilme zeige ich gern in Deinem Segelclub oder Kulturzentrum. Mehr auf www.ralfuka.de/index.php/videos/vortraege

See SailTube http://www.startedsailing.com/sailtube.html for more great sailing videos! The windiest it has ever been on the Welsh Harp in North London, with GP14s capsizing left, right and centre. See if you can count how many capsizes we did (sail number 14014)!

Na Sequoia National Park was San Francisco de laatste stop voordat we naar Alaska gevlogen zijn. Eerste nacht in Sausalito, daarna 4 nachten aan de overkant in San Francisco zelf.

The Atlanta Yacht Club hosted Snipe Week 2009 the last week in October highlighted by the US Masters Championship. To compete in the Masters, the skipper must be at least 45 and the combination of skipper and crew must be at least 80. What you see is a lot of couples sailing together and a lot of older skippers sailing with much much younger crews. To keep it civilized, there are just two races a day and the fleet comes in if the winds get over 15. Its still Serious Sailing, but theres Serious Fun too. Coinciding with the Masters was the First Annual Snipe Wooden Boat Rally. There were some amazingly well restored boats on display that week and their owners were more than willing to tell you the provenance of their boats and all the tricks they learned to make the restoration possible. Theres not a Snipe event around that does not provide just as much fun off the water as they do on the water. This year there was Snipe Bingo one night and a chicken feed with a mountain band another night.

Laatste deel van de week in Phoenix. Eerst een rondje met Sander naar de vliegvelden in de buurt waar hij binnenkort ook naar toe moet (moest) vliegen; en een stop op de prachtige airport van Sedona. Daarna vliegt Marijke naar Las Vegas en terug.

Launch of Canny into the sea

Back in November 2004, we went on a Canopy tour here in Puerto Vallarta with a group of friends. This Video is particularly funny since we were way over dressed (jungle attire) and were a lot heavier than we are now (2009). Enjoy!

A great video with an incredible amount of silky sharks in Malpelo island/Colombia. Thanks to German Soler from Malpelo Foundation. Check www.underseaventures.com for Malpelo Liveaboard Trips

http://nature-expeditions-peru.com/ecotourism-programs-prices/dolphin-watching-in-peru/ Dolphin watching in Peru: Dolphin watching gives value to nature and creates jobs in coastal communities. Dont miss our eco-dolphin watching tours at: http://nature-expeditions-peru.com/ecoturism-programs/dolphin-watching-in-peru/ In Peru it can be a tool against illegal killing of dolphins for human consumption. Up to 3000 dolphins still get killed each year. But if dolphin watching is badly done it is merely another threat to the species survival. The video explores cases of bad tourism practice in Paracas, Peru and shows alternatives.
