Some of Our Favor “ite” Things – Useful Boating Products
It can be maddening trying to find, buy and then store all those chart books we boaters need for long-distance cruising. We’ve always felt it was important to have paper charts as a back up to our GPS chartplotter as well as for route planning. The downside of paper charts/chart books is storage on a…

Hillarys Yacht Club
We have arrived at Hillarys Boat Harbour, just north of Perth and we are tied to the marina preparing to wash and polish the salt from the decks. Our last marina visit was May this year when we left Cairns! So it will be great to use marina water to wash instead of our home made water! The couple of weeks at the Abrolhus Islands was beautiful, the wildlife throughout the Abrolhus Islands was magnificent. Above: There are over 100 islands that contain the temporary homes for the Crayfisherm…

#57 Wine Country
I’ll admit it; we love wine. It adds so much to a conversation or meal. We’ve found it pairs well with any sunset, real or imaginary, just about any time. After a day of hard work, we like to think of the traditional pour as a ‘reward’. About the only time we don’t have wine is when we’re underway. Otherwise, you can be sure as Debbie prepares the evening meal, there will be a bottle opened. Eliana has a small wine cooler on board. We usually keep a few bottles of red and white in ther…
