hey guys dropping in for a quick update
for those of you who don't know we have
been sailing the last eight months in
new Kell and Vanuatu which has been
amazing business absolutely crazy top
destinations to cruise and unfortunately
our hard drive has been holding our
house our footage hostage so we did a
big divert we sailed south and east and
west and south and east again and we've
crossed another ocean and we have taken
our little hard drive into a forensic
data specialist who's going to help get
our footage back for us just this week
that's as expensive as it sounds it is
very expensive it doesn't bear thinking
about
so I'm he'll put my little thinking cap
on to avoid us going broke I've started
a campaign for you guys because many of
you guys have been asking us for much
that you could wear yourselves you've
often seen Darien wearing the famous
sailing sari and t-shirt so you can
never yourself and get yourself a cool
logo on your butt baby yeah baby I check
out to really cover designs I can't with
a new really cool design when I was
making this campaign up so yeah go over
here and have a look through some other
match over there hats and bags and yeah
grab yourself some pre-christmas merch
absolutely grab some for your partner
for your lover for your mother my auntie
share it with your granddad with your
kids buy a small one for your dog
get on board guys and you help us out
and grab yourself some really cool Mitch
radio on with the video
so we're just coming through a fairly
tight read passage and it's kicked up to
30 knots school massive big
over the top of us
and I just know it marked on the charts
of
the traction device
I'm just looking I think I saw a
flashing light often the difference is a
very little one
attraction devices marked on the chart
this sort of dotted everywhere in this
channel it's been a bleep of a night to
be perfectly honest we're both exhausted
we've got this dreadful
squall that was absolutely massive dark
black thing rips about 30 knots
and we happened to hit this channel
later than we wanted to at low tide so
that the sea was buckling up we had
green water all over the boat for hours
it was really uncomfortable but we
managed to sort of fine come across to
this little island then
digging behind this tiny little island
just gave us enough shelter while that
mess of Spore finished its business
now it's sucked away all the wind of
coure
haha
anybody not father go to get out of this
channel just could have fun not hit
anything on the way out
have another look see what if I couldn't
see anything
that's by not time view makes it a bit
of a challenge
sometimes sailing can challenge you to
the core and it's not always the big
storms that will get you it can be just
an average 30 knot Buster when you've
been on passage for a few days for just
the two of you to manage the boat
[Music]
Oh
[Music]
I think it's gonna be a no subway though
[Music]
our small house around us
so while Dan was waking up unfit the
sales to make the most of the breeze
[Music]
[Music]
crush my little finger a little bit you
know when that anchor got stuck with
that cable that we pulled up from Planet
Earth yank we ended up coming up into
the bow roller up side yeah for some
funny reason and I worked at a corrector
train a couple of times like this I
often do it to get it to move and I
think that won't happen next but tell
you my fingers got caught anyway pretty
good it'll just look at that ugly for a
while
watch out for the little finger
like you used to bubble thing I've seen
what happens there look it's telling me
I'm lucky I still got my fingers it's
true years on board and still we have
these little mishaps my little vial of
lavender oil I buy I carry on board I
know it's in the tea tree oil container
but it's actually 11 Doyle we don't use
chemicals anymore and we haven't for
years actually and so I buy 1 liter
containers of pure lavender essential
oil and clove oil and
tea tree oil equipment oil whatever I
can get my hands on at the time and we
use the leaven during the tea tree for
antiseptic because they have antiseptic
antibacterial properties and then you
the clove oil for cleaning orange oil or
lemon oils that's the same job and
keeping the mold at bay because folks
just check mold when they're on a cold
temperature or hot temperatures thats
always gets a little bit damp and dank
on boats yeah so that's another way of
avoiding the chemicals do just as good a
job I don't know why they mimic them in
the chemical industry but they won't use
the actual product itself it's bizarre
by the nature she provides all
[Music]
we met this guy Danny who's a really
lovely fellow here in our delivering
their boats ocean pearl back to New
Zealand it's a table 53 it's gorgeous
and it's fully electric that thing has
got so many back stop sign like if you
lose the electric winches you can even
use them manually everything that's only
of its illiterate you can use manually
anyway we're just having a bit of a
laugh because Danny's been sending us
emails over the satellite never saying
that he's got um he's been winching is
his wreaths in and out by button and
MacDowell and I are busy struggling away
as we typically do oh we need some
electric winches that would be handy put
those on the wish list
come on my honey put it back into it
[Music]
soon Saren was plowing through the ocean
like a seasoned filly she is it's such a
joy to feel her sailing in her groove
and today we had perfect conditions for
some fast sailing
Cheers
well it's been a fairly boisterous
afternoon
we are getting about 20 25 knots for 25
knots from about the south service
which means the t's have kicked up and
yeah we didn't put a refund we've only
got 7 miles to go until we make our turn
into Havana passage so we'll deal with
that then
and probably drop sales I will thought
we've heard or drop the head so anyway
we've heard from some people that when
turn
last night that it was feeling torrid
with the 3-meter seas and green waves
over the deck and they were dipping
their bow so we have been forewarned
SR Freitas just crossed out there and
he's going into the same passage that we
are so hopefully there won't be any
Freitas coming in and out while we're
doing that little maneuver
we shall see it's about four o'clock in
the afternoon and it's high tide so
we were hoping to make this
message earlier but because we got
backed around the previous night we've
got delayed
so he went with people to see what we
get it's all good
[Music]
yes Oh Darrin is down having a risks and
I'm enjoying one of the last of our
fresh crate nuts
gosh I just so enjoyed Vanuatu I'm
really looking forward to bringing their
products to you to you just the the
people just made then I will actually
to be one of the most incredible
experiences that we've ever had
I think Vanuatu is a shining example of
what we need more of in the world it's a
simple living love and happiness there
people have love for everyone and
they're so heavy
I think they could be the most healing
culture that this world needs yes
but I better have a look about sticks
and see what's going on
it was all looking good with no traffic
in sight so I went down below to the
Paris for night shift feed on
right we're gonna make that turn back
there's a giant floating hotel up ahead
of us
very strange-looking thing you can't
actually quite make out what it is
all right
actual let's go to lease lot to
like
to see what we get close to what it is
but yes we say to instruct this message
at the right time which is good there's
not too much current trying aspect which
is fantastic but we're still voted motor
along about five and a half knots
we've got the main up because we're
heading directly into the breeze so
there was no point kicking the jib up
you have to be really curious to see
what on earth that is at the universe
des ensues it smells like they got the
buffet going anyway I was doing me a
cruise liner slightly larger than if
anyone and he's honking along at 20
knots so
they traveled fast these guys
after vanuatu I wish you think
bon voyage people Montoya's
what would you be having for dinner
tonight if you're on the cruise liner my
love I'm not sure what's on the menu but
I'll probably try everything try
everything a little bit of everything
