Join us on our
adventures sailing around
Australia and hopefully
further a field.
We have a twenty year
dream and we invite you to
check our website and see
how we are progressing.
CURRENT
LOCATION
Ten plus years ago we had a dream, to travel extensively, be
self sufficient and see as much as we could before we got
too old.
The choice of transport was a last minute change as we both
used to get very seasick, but are now enjoying our new home
and the opportunities it offers.
Gone Cruising highlights
For interest
Sailing lets us visit
places that others do not
normally see - our
highlight was anchoring off
Pearson Island, S.A. where
we were the only humans on
the island along with seals,
penguins, birds, rock
wallabies, etc.
Sailing is a great way to
meet people. Sailing
makes one appreciate how
much waste we have in normal
land based life. - we
are self-sufficient in power
and can only fit what can be
used onto the boat.
Sailing teaches us
patience- it is not the
destination but the journey
that is important. -Our
highlight was the Great
Australian Bight, I keep
pinching myself that we
actually have achieved this.
