another day at australia's beaches π₯β₯οΈ
sun, surf, sand and peace
WE F*CKED UP!! π± caught in fishing net, and confronted.. (our worst night sailing)
revealing the crazy, scary sail we had in penang... the experience we had was the consequence of not keep a proper watch. this is not something we are proud of, but have learned from and will never let happen again while we are at sea. we are very lucky the fishermen didnt push the confrontation past threats and yelling.
more photos i like πΈβ΅οΈβοΈ
from posing around on the boat, having fun messing around with our camera. π€

Trying out new things: Yoga π§ββοΈπ
Very new to me! My friend at the marina encouraged me to try yoga with her and snapped some pics. I'm a bit shy but taking the leap and stretching in the morning before editing or doing work on the boat... Actually feels great and worth the effort if I can get up in time. Honestly I never thought I'd be doing this! π Here I am lol.
βοΈ Q&A: Please ask, and we'll answer!
Hello there! Do you have any questions or comments for us? Please let us know and leave em' below as we would love to read and respond to you. β€οΈπ€Amy and Ben
β΅π² OUR FIRST SAIL IN A YEAR!!!
Wow!! So we took Sharmila out for a sail and a motor to see how she's doing after being on the hard for so long - and she's flying!! No issues with the sails or with the engine. She is a little quieter when motoring now that we've replaced the engine mounts and aligned the shaft. Only thing is.. We are a bit rusty! I am anyway, remembering procedure and lines and what does what goes where and how! π΅βπ« Our new motto on the boat...
βοΈπβ οΈ Critical Maintenance: Painting our anchor chain markings!!
Sharmila's chain markings had completely worn off!! Really bad.When anchoring it is imperative to know how much chain you have let out. πIf you use a scope of 5 to 1 you will usually be safe from dragging your anchor. You can let out more chain if the weather is adverse , to be safe.π Example: If the depth is 10 meters, then 50 meters of chain is more than sufficient. It can be difficult to know how much chain you have let out, so marki...
πβ€οΈ NEW cockpit comfort!!
We are SHOCKED how comfortable this boat is after the HUGE CHANGES to our cockpit! NEVER AGAIN will we suppress and ignore the feeling of discomfort on a boat - if something is uncomfortable, it's uncomfortable and can be changed in some way!! πππ
Livestream reminder π₯π΄
Reminder for the livestream on the 6th at 3.00am GMT βοΈβοΈβοΈ
collecting shells ππ€
More photos from our curious day out at Pangkor Island!! β΅οΈπTouring the beaches is always interesting - Iamalways on the hunt for shells to admire and collect to make art from. I feel at peace walking across sand and searching. It's awesome. πβ€οΈβ€οΈ Benny even got me a "shit box" for me to place all the stuff I collect in, so they don't litter the boat! Thanks benny π

β΅ From LANDLOCKED to LIFTOFF: Getting Our Boat Back in the Water! (extended, special uncut video)
We're back! I hope you've been well, wherever you are. We've reached Malaysia, been here a couple of weeks now! And our big mission to get Sharmila off the hard, where she's been abandoned for 8 months, to the water has been a flaming success. I am pretty chuffed about it, we haven't even sailed her yet! The anticipation is almost unbearable. I'm so damn happy to finish producing the film and show you all that we've do...
