Some thoughts after a rough night at anchor 😅. NotebookLM is quite impressive.

Our home makes 5 knots. 120 nm a day. That number quietly changes what a weather forecast is for. By the time the surface charts are trustworthy, I'm already committed to wherever I happen to be. Which is why my mornings now start with the 500 mb chart.

The taste of a freshly brewed coffee and a soft breeze on your body. The rising sun is wrapping your body in a gentle, warm doona. You observe two friends catching up at the beach and going for a swim, connecting before the day unfolds.

Escargot pace at the Côte. Pure French Riviera feeling.

What a start 🙏🏻, Grazie Bella Italia. If you sail along the southern coast of Sicily, consider the marina in Scoglitti. Great protection and marina infrastructure, Giuseppe and Franco will help you wherever the can and the espresso in town is magnificent.

Nothing says 'standard time' like a Krupp gun pointed at your midday meeting. Synchronize watches... or else. #Wellington #Te-Ika-a-Māui

The South Island feels like home. Miss my boat. #Glenorchy

Blown away by New Zealand. Miss my boat.

Australian beaches play in a different league. Cannot put my finger on it, but it is a different vibe #Queensland #beach

I found my place for this winter. A bit earlier than planned, but that’s life, hey. Scoglitti, a small town on the south side of Sicily. Very cute and most important safe for our Cooee. The owners of the marina are very supportive and always have an eye out for their stuff and the boats. #sailing

Bye bye for now Malta. I’ll hopefully be back soon.

Almost 600 nm, what an experience and learning curve. I feel I added some barnacles to my back 😆.

Finally we arrived in Malta. What an inspiring spot. Cannot wait to dive deeper into people and culture.

A downwind passage to Malta. I mean honestly can it get sweeter?

Super interesting. I am always worried about running into one of them during sailing at night. Just saw some floating markers about 8 nm off shore in 125 meter water depth. Can that be a FAD? I have the coordinates just in case.

This one really surprises me. A modern pirate village 😆🤣. Only accessible by boat. #Girolata #Corsica. Despite loads of boats a gem.

The Boat Brain next step. RaspberryPi5 and a MacArthur hat to connect to the NMEA2000 system. Bought a touch display and a Adafruit sensor for temperature, air pressure and humidity. Let the fun beginn. #sailorsforscience #geomar #dwd #citizenscience

Adieu beautiful Cote d’Azure and hello Corsica. #Cannes

Some gorgeous anchorages around Cannes. I am very delighted by French anchoring and boating. The most respectful I have seen in the Med.

That was an awesome journey back into my childhood. Louis de Funes even has a museum here in Saint Raphaël. Magnificent #cotedazure #sailing #landexploration

Nice, but two hours was enough. I much more prefer the “underdog locations“ #sailing #cruising #cotedazur

The bay of Saint Tropez, hehehe their tender is as big as my boat 😆😆

Good evening sailors. After being frilled under the current heat dome in Southern France we enjoy a a magnificent evening with heavenly temperatures. Vive Cote d’Azur.
