We didn’t realise how close we were… until it was almost too late. In this episode of Sailing with Six, we make our way through the remote southern atolls of the Maldives in search of a place we’d heard incredible things about — Five Islands. With limited information on anchorages, broken gear along the way, and more problem-solving than sailing at times, getting there was anything but straightforward. From fixing our watermaker and electric winch, to creating our own anchorage in unfamiliar waters, this journey pushed both us and our boat. And then, an unexpected storm rolled through. With a sudden wind shift, building seas, and very little protection, we found ourselves just metres from the reef — fighting to keep our home safe in conditions even the locals hadn’t expected. Despite the challenges, Five Islands gave us some of our most beautiful days in the Maldives — and one of our scariest nights. It’s a place we’ll never forget.

In this episode, we finally make our move north from Nieuwpoort, Belgium aiming for the start of the Standing Mast Route in the Netherlands. The plan was simple enough: take advantage of a rare winter weather window, ride the favourable tide, and push on toward Holland… or, if the North Sea had other ideas, tuck into one of the safe harbours along the Belgian coast. As it turned out, the weather won this round. With snow, storms, shifting channels, and a tight tidal gate, we diverted into Blankenberge — a stop we’d already marked as a smart fallback. That “quick stop” turned into nearly a week of exploring the town, wandering the seafront, riding the world’s longest tram line, and settling into marina life in the middle of winter. Magnus also takes you through his full passage‑planning system for this leg: tides, currents, weather windows, fallback ports, VHF channels, lock timings, and all the decision points that go into moving a boat safely up this wild stretch of coast. If you’re planning to sail Belgium or head toward the Standing Mast Route yourself, this episode gives you a real look at what it takes. Hope you enjoy the (short) journey north — even if we didn’t get quite as far as planned.

SAILING ILLUSTRATED #906 (Tue 3 Feb 2026) — The pre-regatta collision between the Black Foils and Switzerland caused catastrophic damage to the left-side hull of the Kiwi F50, immediately ruling the team out of the Oracle Perth Sail Grand Prix presented by KPMG. But a heroic rebuild — SailGP’s biggest ever in-season repair — has put the Black Foils on track to fly once more on Auckland’s Waitematā Harbour on February 14-15, with thousands of supporters ready to lift the team when it matters most.

🏊‍♂️ On Sunday morning I completed a 5km charity swim (200 lengths) as part of the Swimathon, raising money for Marie Curie and Cancer Research UK. The swim started with a steady pace, gradually building through the middle kilometres before finishing strong in the final 1,000m. At the time of recording £124 has been raised, and across everyone taking part an incredible £405,419 has been raised so far!

📢 Wieści z pokładu Crystal z Lizbony 📢 Jak już wiecie, mamy super trasę rejsu 🗺 Czas więc na podsumowanie, co dzieje się obecnie na pokładzie Krysi. Tydzień temu przylecieliśmy do Lizbony i z radością możemy stwierdzić, że w sumie to całkiem sporo zrobiliśmy: ➡ Kończymy lakierować rzeczy, których nie zdążyliśmy rok temu. W kabinach dziobowych położyliśmy aż cztery warstwy lakieru! Powinno starczyć na dłuższy czas ;) ➡ Na sterze były małe luzy, więc nowe łożyska z brązu są już w drodze do nas. Jak zobaczycie na filmiku, żeby zdemontować płetwę trzeba było wykopać całkiem sporą dziurę ;) ➡ Do końca tygodnia jacht będzie już pomalowany farbą antyporostową. To będzie koniec najbardziej uciążliwych i brudnych prac. Do startu naszego rejsu już mniej niż 3 miesiące! 🌍🎉⛵ 👉 https://www.skiff.pl/rejsy.html Sprawdź naszą pozycję: http://www.skiff.pl/pozycja.html! Dołącz do nas w kolejnej wyprawie dookoła świata!

Taking the Moreton Maiden out this past weekend to the "coffee pots" out of the Brisbane river to do a bit of fishing, just put together a few pictures here of our trip from Shorncliff and Back! Beautiful day on the Bay...

This coast is starting to look familiar. But wait, what's this black sentinel? It's the Pigeon Point lighthouse, presumably undergoing some refurbishment. Motoring up past Laguna de las Francas. A sea monster attacked Jonah and stopped us dead in the water. The engine has quit. But this monster is no match for the trusty Gerber...

On pensait passer une journée tranquille entre Porquerolles et la presqu'ile de Giens...jusqu'à ce que la fourrière s'invite dans l'aventure... Entre mer turquoise, apéros au mouillage et petites galères de la vrai vie en catamaran, on vous raconte tout avec le sourire. Abonnez vous pour suivre nos prochaines navigations en Méditerranée .

Apoie meu projeto se cadastrando no Apoia-se https://apoia.se/veiodoidonomar Fiquei muito orgulhoso com a travessia quando um velejador experinte me disse que fez o mesmo percurso em 24 horas. Outra playlist minha https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oE1xSofU3pg&t=177s Sou um aposentado que no dia 18/09/2024 completou 69 anos de idade e resido na cidade de Morrinhos, no Sul do Estado de Goiás. Separado, morando sozinho num pequeno barraco, com os filhos morando muito distante (dois no Canadá e a caçula em Paraty) já estava aceitando a vida sedentária. Fazia minhas cainhadas diárias e dançava eventualmente. O restante do tempo era ocupado com leitura, rede social e televisão. Em 2022 fui visitar seus filhos no Canadá e meu filho mais velho tinha comprado um pequeno veleiro para navegar no lago de Montreal. Então, num passeio nessa pequena embarcação, meu filho iniciou um diálogo mais ou menos assim: - Velho! Você já foi um grande aventureiro por que não faz mais uma aventura? - Que aventura, cara! – respondi. - Vir de Veleiro do Brasil até o Canadá. Você precisa sair de casa. Precisa de objetivos de vida. - Você está louco? Nunca naveguei e não tenho dinheiro para comprar um veleiro! – retruquei. - Você não tem uma Previdência Privada? - Sim. Tenho. Mas ela é para quando eu ficar velho. É para minha saúde – respondi. - Mas você já não está velho? (emitiu uma sonora gargalhada). Então você retira esse dinheiro e compra um veleiro. Comece a estudar, assistir vídeos e ler livros. Depois você vende o veleiro e repõe a grana. A sugestão do filho foi como um trauma mental para seu velho pai. A partir desse dia aprender sobre velas tornou-se minha obsessão. Tudo na na minha vida foi relacionado à navegação. Comecei a devorar livros e assistir todo tipo de vídeo no YouTube. No primeiro semestre de 2023 tirei a habilitação da Marinha para navegar em lagos (pré-requisito para as demais). No segundo semestre consegui a carteira de Mestre Amador e, finalmente, em abril de 2024, conseguiu a mais temida e difícil prova aplicada pela Marinha do Brasil: Capitão Amador. O material de estudo para essa prova foi enorme. Vários livros, apostilas, curso grátis no YouTube e sites pagos. Havia dias que o velho pensava que seria impossível passar na prova. Coisas estudadas era rapidamente esquecida pela memória sexagenária. A grana para compra do Veleiro estava resguardada. Era só esperar o momento oportuno. Entretanto, restava, ainda uma questão muito importante: equacionar os custos da viagem com sua pequena aposentadoria. A conclusão foi que a grana seria insuficiente, principalmente quando as despesas fossem em outra moeda. Para piorar, descobriu que chegando ao Canadá, seria muito difícil voltar no mesmo caminho, tendo em vista que existe uma corrente marítima contrária. O caminho de volta mais fácil teria que ser pela Europa e África. Ou seja, gastar em euros. O visto para entrada em cada ilha ou país corresponderá a um quarto da minha renda, sem contar comida, óleo diesel e manutenção no veleiro tudo em dólar ou Euro. Apesar dos estudos orçamentários indicar a inviabilidade do projeto, no dia 14/10/24 mudei para um veleiro adquirido na cidade de Salvador. O planejamento da viagem estima dois anos de vida ao mar, cujo planejamento pode ser verificado nos dois primeiros vídeos do canal “Veio Doido no Mar” no YouTube. Pretendo navegar pela costa brasileira, passar pelas Ilhas do Caribe, passar pelo Canadá, Europa e África. Em torno de 18 meses viajando.
