Just wrapped up a weeks passage down the east coast of QLD and NSW in Australia, training up new skippers. Pretty eventful weather. Excellent sea and landscapes and sooooo many whales.

I’m a sailor and ocean lover. Enjoy to dive, surf, do yoga and currently living to my utmost vagabond. I’m outfitting my own yawl and running a sea weed farm.
