It was a moderately windy day from the north at about 10-12 kts however it dropped to 6-8 kts overnight but we kept on sailing, because that’s what we do! By noon we had to drop the kite and went to the Genoa as the wind got up to 15 kts! So now that, Read More
If I was a superstitious man I would have to believe that my last entry claiming to found the wind was the primary reason for us losing the wind today. Since I’m not a superstitious man I think it makes it all the worse as I pour over as much weather info I can get my, Read More
We keep on motoring…. motoring…. Well most of the time anyways. Jean and I hoisted the kite this morning at a little after 9am and have had it flying on a beam reach ever since. The winds have been light but good enough to keep sailing with true wind speeds from 7-9 kts for, Read More
Another day of sailing! We had good pressure all day and all night and were sailing pretty much 40-50 degrees off the wind to keep our boat speed up. The wind was from the NNW through the NNE so our course was up and down a bit but we made some good distance directly, Read More

We never saw it before,during or after hitting it. About halfway thought the river tour it was obvious we were taking on water., Read More
This morning we headed to La Manzanilla to visit the crocodile sanctuary. The crocs were absolutely amazing, and should not be missed. They are massive and ancient looking and definitely scary. Not something you would ever want to see when swimming! We held a little one, at 3 years old it was only about, Read More
We spent the first day at the ‘Aquarium’, Fynn came snorkelling with us for a good hour. She just swims around with us or goes for a ride on our backs, it will be great when she starts wearing goggles and can see the fish. We also have an underwater viewer, which is tons, Read More
