this is one of those moments a very normal dinghy ride into the marina turned completely magical and also the moment I realized my dog is LIVING watching him adapt to this world of onboard living along with us, has been eye opening and heart warming at the same time #sailing #botalife #boatdog #miami #coconutgrove #dinnerkeymarina #dinghy

Day 18 of our Christmas calendar is all about navigation! 🎄 With our 20-year-old system in need of a major upgrade, we pulled out every single wire and installed a state-of-the-art B&G network. Here’s how it works: 🛠️ The Backbone: Our NMEA2000 network runs the length of the boat, connecting all key components: 🌬️ Wind sensor: Real-time wind speed and direction. 🌊 Speed & depth transducer: Critical for safe navigation. 🖥️ Chartplotters: Zeus S 7” at the nav station & Zeus S 12” in the cockpit. 🛟 VHF & AIS: Keeping us connected and safe. 🔋 Victron Ekrano integration: Displays electrical monitoring on our nav instruments. ⚡ Ethernet Network: Some advanced systems connect via Ethernet for seamless updates and integration: 🛰️ HALO Radar & Forward Looking Sonar: For precise situational awareness. 🌐 Internet-connected chartplotters for real-time updates. 💡 Smart Navigation: From the Precision 9 gyro compass and autopilot computer to the rudder feedback unit, every single component works together for smooth sailing. This setup gives us full control and visibility, ensuring we’re ready for any adventure. What’s the most exciting feature of this system to you? Let us know in the comments! 💬 🎥 Tomorrow, we explore even more of Vela’s features—stay tuned! 🎵 Music by Sergio Prosvirini from Pixabay #YouTubeShorts #Explore #TravelVlog #Vloggers #DailyLife #ChristmasCalendar #Vlogmas #ChristmasOnBoard #Beneteau44cc #Sailing #Liveaboard #LifeAtSea

Cameo Island is a small private island in the bay of Laganas. In the drone video you see the entrance to Cameo Island which is already special: the wooden walkway that hangs above clear blue water. The gracefully fluttering white cloths that can be seen above the beach create a dreamy atmosphere, especially when they stand out against the blue sky. The island is therefore a popular location for weddings. We flew the drone over this small cove so you can clearly see the color of the water and the beautiful surroundings with the cliffs!

The North Sea Canal got me all philosophical about ecosystems and consumerism, which I elaborate on in this post. (If you want to support this voyage, consider becoming a paid subscriber to my Substack.) I was really excited to finally reach the North Sea!

One of our NSSC Sailability members, Jazz Turner, featured on Adam Dowling's radio show on BBC Radio Sussex at the end of her epic Project FEAR ("face everything and rise") journey. Jazz is terminally ill with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome (EDS), and is a full-time wheelchair user. After 28 days sailing around the UK and Ireland single-handed, non-stop and unassisted, Jazz arrived back at Brighton Marina around 13:30 on Monday 30th June 2025. Jazz is raising money for the Newhaven and Seaford Sailing Club (NSSC) Sailability fund.

The entrance is marked by a red nun buoy. The red nun should not be used for accessing the channel as it is not directly on the channel but will be well to port as you enter. Navionics has the channel correctly positioned and once lined up is straight and long. It feels very narrow and the current can be strong depending on the tides.

Dive into the Selene 66 Classic Explorer with Terry Goldacre, Moon Shadow’s owner and Director of Selene Yachts Australia. This extension review from Issue 116, published in November 2024, shows the vessel in depth – drilling down into the master craftmanship that all Selene owners know and love. Moon Shadow is packed with custom features, and with its shimmering blue hull and cream superstructure, the oceangoing motor yacht continues to turn heads wherever she roams.

Ep 52 – Misc Projects: Ice Maker Install & Netting / Sailing Free Spirit We finally were able to get the Ice Maker installed. This is a Rartian unit that makes 7 lbs of ice at a time so a good amount for us to enjoy our cocktails! Its come in quite handy and it’s no longer considered a luxury item for us but a necessity! We use a lot of ice for drinks, the pups enjoy eating it and most importantly our cocktails! Its come in handy as other dock mates have had their unit break or stop working and we are more than happy to assist them with their need for ice! We also install the netting around the boat (ok only half of it was accomplished today). This was more of a safety concern as we have 3 dogs who love to jump off the boat and we were afraid that they would jump or fall into the water. We also did a quick fix to one of the sails that we had to undo and retie again. Overall, a great weekend for boat projects!! All financial contributions (or items purchased on Amazon) are tax deductible for your US income tax returns for full face and/or retail value. You contribution helps us to continue with project and support events to help us engage with our veterans thru events such as day sailings, working on the boat to help with projects and social gatherings.

🌴 In this episode, we sail to the remote island of Motorina, where we’re welcomed by one of the most musical and generous communities we've encountered on our journey so far. 🌺 ✨ From hand-carved ukuleles to sharing whole-cooked chickens and fresh produce, this village experience is a glimpse into a way of life that has been largely lost in the modern world. 🚣🏽‍♂️ We trade with locals arriving by canoe, witness the incredible craftsmanship of their traditional sailing canoes, and learn about "bagi" – the island’s ancient form of traditional money, once made from banana seeds, now beautifully recreated using black coral. 🎣 I also head out into the open sea with our friend Jimmy in his dugout canoe, where he teaches me the art of traditional fishing using feathers, hooks, and a rock wrapped in a leaf — a technique passed down for generations. This is real village life, raw and unfiltered. It’s about connection, tradition, and a sustainable way of living that’s increasingly rare in the Western world.

Simple living, rich tradition — join us in Papua New Guinea as we cook over the fire in a handmade clay pot and experience the rhythm of island life. The morning begins with a canoe pulling alongside our boat — locals bring us one of our favourites: fresh baked cassava pudding, still warm from the fire. Not long after, they return with live mud crabs they’ve just caught by hand along the mangroves — strong, fast, and very much alive as they make a chaotic escape across the cockpit. Out here, life moves with the tides. People grow up on the sea, learning to sail, fish, and navigate from a young age — skills passed down through generations. We often talk about how it feels being here; how the community looks out for us with such care that it reminds us of being “cubs” — protected, guided, and watched over. Later, we go ashore to a small fishing outpost. Along the coast, local fishermen have built simple structures — a hut for sleeping, others for drying fish over the fire, or taking shelter when the weather turns. These places tell stories of everyday island life — resourceful, communal, and deeply connected to the ocean. We light a fire and cook in a traditional clay pot, a vessel shaped entirely by hand from local clay, then fired and hardened over coals. These pots are more than cooking tools — they hold deep cultural significance and are used during weddings, funerals, and feasts of importance. Each one represents care, continuity, and the sharing of life’s most meaningful moments. As evening falls, we return to our floating home to tackle a small but steady task — repairing wood rot on the boat, keeping her ready for the next crossing. A day of fire, craft, and quiet purpose — moments that remind us why this life at sea feels so rich and full. 🌀 A story of craft, simplicity, and connection in the islands of Papua New Guinea. 🔥 Episode 22 – Sailing Louisiades, Papua New Guinea 📍 Location: Milne Bay, Papua New Guinea 🎣 Themes: Traditional Cooking, Clay Pot Traditions, Island Culture, Ocean Communities, Simple Living, Sailing Life ⏱️ Timestamps: 0:00 – 🍮 Fresh baked cassava pudding & live mud crabs delivered by canoe 1:52 – 🐚 Life at sea & being cared for like “cubs” 2:52 – 🎥 Intro video 3:18 – 🥥 Coconut plantation — a way to provide water during droughts 4:10 – ⛵ Sailing culture — learning the ocean from childhood 7:12 – 🛖 Exploring the fisherman’s huts ashore 11:05 – 🔥 Cooking on the fire in a traditional clay pot 13:06 – ⚙️ Boat repair — fixing wood rot aboard 🫶 Support Our Journey: 💡 Patreon → https://www.patreon.com/c/onceuponareef ☕ Buy us a coffee → https://buymeacoffee.com/onceuponareef 🎁 Send us a gift → https://throne.com/onceuponareef 🌍 Follow Our Adventures: 📸 Instagram → @onceuponareef & @wheres.poppy 🎥 Poppy's YouTube → https://www.youtube.com/wherespoppy 📧 Business Inquiries: onceuponareef@protonmail.com Hey, we’re Ryan and Poppy — two sailors exploring the remote islands and reefs of the Pacific.

2006 Knysna 440 “Caterpillar” now Exclusively Listed for Sale with Yoti, in Newport, Queensland, Australia. Caterpillar is a 2006 Knysna 440 — a boutique, South African-built bluewater catamaran, thoughtfully upgraded and exceptionally well set up for extended, independent cruising. Designed by Angelo Lovranos and handcrafted by the Knysna Yacht Company, the 440 is admired for its solid construction, efficient hull design, and owner-focused layout. A major refit in 2019, followed by consistent annual upgrades, brings Caterpillar to a modern cruising standard. Twin Yanmar 3YM30AE engines with SD25 saildrives (2019), upgraded steering (2022), new rudder shafts and bearings (2025), and comprehensive Racor fuel management ensure mechanical confidence offshore. The vessel is impressively self-sufficient, powered by 1,990W of solar, 1,200Ah Lithionics lithium batteries, dual Victron inverter/chargers, high-output alternators with Wakespeed smart regulation, and a CruiseRO 114L/h watermaker. Refrigeration is abundant with multiple Isotherm fridges, two ARB freezers, and a dedicated saloon drinks fridge. A custom stainless solar arch supports the AB aluminium RIB (2019) and Yamaha Enduro outboard (2023). Inside, the three-cabin owner’s layout offers a full-beam master suite and two welcoming guest cabins. Recent interior upgrades include UltraLeather upholstery, Oceanair hatch screens, new linens, and tasteful pearwood joinery. The well-designed galley features induction cooking, a Samsung convection oven, generous storage, and a wet-bar with UVC-LED purified water. Sailing systems are equally well refined: a Sparcraft spars, full standing rigging replacement (2019), Harken battcar mainsail system, Harken ESP genoa furler, and a Facnor continuous furler for the Code 0 and asymmetric spinnaker with top-down furling capability. Seven Lewmar winches—one electric—keep sail handling efficient and manageable.
