We are an adventurous couple who live an alternative life - a life at sea. We feel better connected when we are sailing. We live simpler and have less impact on the environment. We take the time to immerse ourselves in different cultures, meet amazing people and experience what the oceans and our planet have to offer.
So come aboard and follow our adventures as we sail and explore our beautiful planet!

Transcript:
in our last video we discovered some
wrecks from cyclone Debbie then sailed
off to check out the damage in some of
our favorite bays
we continue our honeymoon departing
beautiful butterfly bay heading off to
explore the Stonehaven Anchorage
so would you believe we're not sailing
hard on because we've got a batch of
yogurt on the brew at the moment
so we're just taking it nice and easy we
sailed a couple of times actually
when we were making yogurt that was a
bit rough and the whole batch was lost
so obviously
Yoga doesn't like to be bashed around
when it's in the brewing process
so good morning welcome to our beautiful
Anchorage for the day
this is IANS point well a little Bay
just down from Ian's point in Stonehaven
Anchorage and we came in here yesterday
afternoon we've just been sitting here
chilling out relaxing and enjoying the
environment it's been beautiful lovely
and calm and lots of birds in here lots
of cockatoos and even some geese I think
which is been pretty cool it's a really
nice fishing spot just on the corner
we've been watching people fishing down
here and it's lovely and protected here
from the South easterlies that sort of
come down with Sunday passage and the
swell hooks around here but we're just
tucked in right behind the corner and we
seem to be nicely protected from that
swell which is really lovely so it's a
beautiful sunny day it's been a gorgeous
morning just waking up with nature and
we've been doing a few jobs on board and
we're going to go for a bit of adventure
soon
check this out
isn't it beautiful we've just been
drifting along for the last 15 minutes
or so
living the tide take us where it will
gorgeous isn't it
this is way told me the turtle hangs out
it's not very friendly today I think he
thinks we're out to get him beautiful so
relaxing just hanging out my husband my
husband the Darrin's very excited we're
on the stopwatch we've got about seven
minutes to go to see whether his
automatic timer has worked for the water
maker we've put this timer on so that we
can keep replenishing the water running
through the system every couple of days
instead of having to back flush it all
the time war or picolit they retire me
get off the boat so yes a timer has been
set and we have just a few minutes to go
to see if the whole system works very
exciting it is very exciting exciting
the geeks for the automaker's
[Laughter]
we decided to check out one foot roof
however we were more intrigued by what
we thought we could see on the island
[Music]
I've never seen it like this before
[Music]
that's incredible it's amazing
it reminds me of a car to figure out of
the Muppet Show but it's just a whole
massive sea grass covering all these
rocks all the way down the beach just so
blown away by this bright lime green
grassy green color everywhere
[Music]
[Music]
[Music]
so this used to be where our microwave
lived and the other day it trucks
started throwing sparks so we decided to
pull it out and we were going to replace
it with another microwave however
there's a huge amount of space in here
so we've decided we're going to make it
into another cupboard for storage which
is great so yeah this is what we do find
your overage day on your honeymoon while
I was living on a boat I've done my
sponge you've done your sponge it fell
out the back
no no no on top of the Widowmaker oh
bugger no no the biggest problem here is
that it's 5 o'clock and you're sitting
on top of the fridge it's quite a feat
isn't it all right
watch me get out this is quite funny Wow
now I'm more concerned about getting the
beer out of the fridge oh hang on
what's this this is like a new baby
that's Delos or something
Oh ballerina Jesus
a little time clock on the desal works
fantastic that'll save a bit of pain oh
that just means we can leave the boat
now and the decel will start every two
days that's what we've got a program for
that keeps the water fresh air in the
system and saves pickling and all sorts
of problems for the sake of a twenty
dollar timer and yeah yeah baby
high-five magic you guys make my husband
yet that's my husband he's amazing
[Music]
okay baby
that's a beautiful morning here and
they're worth Sunday's and I think we
were up nice and early with the birds
this morning so I catch the tide to get
back to land do some land-based jobs
I guess this marks the official end of
our honeymoon which has been a beautiful
time lovely sunny weather after lots of
rain and got a few good jobs done got
the water maker installed and gave
seryan a bit more love and then took
acute but a bit of time out to play
which was lovely so we were just so I
was thinking this morning when I was
awake early this morning how lovely it
was to have such special friends around
us for our wedding and what fun we had
even though it was a very short time
together it was really really special
and it meant so much to us to have our
beautiful friends here so didn't have my
honey yeah so we're really looking
forward to catching up with some some of
our good mates on our journeys
because the way there was a particularly
wonderful for sailing while I were here
anyway we're doing about six knots
getting into a lovely ten to 15 knots of
southeast breeze and it's a beautiful
day
