Some locals took us exploring the island in their ute, showing us rusting WWII planes and tanks hidden in the jungle. We even came across macaques.. Riley’s absolute favorite animal 😉

Swam with dolphins, went freediving on a shipwreck.. drank coconuts on the beach by sunset. It’s mighty good to be back onboard.

It’s very nice not to be filming for a while. We’re actually in front with movies for the first time in years. We’ve had one of my favourite adventures of all time with the best crew and now having a bit of downtime in Palau.

We’re about to see other humans for the first time in 21 days! Hello Palau!

Very squally but loving the change in weather.. feeling all the hygge vibes ✨

We were en route to Palau, but some engine issues have led us to seek shelter in the calm of an atoll. Not exactly part of the plan but we’re definitely not complaining 🏝️

We actually were pumping this trip and Elayna got us going over 20knots at one point. Very fun and exciting sail with a quick stop in Rota which was unbelievable!!! What a magical place.

What a fun sail. Days like this make me so grateful Riley steered us toward performance sailing. I love my boat!! 🩵

Left one of the more beautiful anchorages we’ve seen in a while. It was blowing 18 then 16 then 14 on a beam swinging aft made for a sporting morning and a relaxing afternoon. Leaving early and arriving 60nm away shortly after midday is one of the reasons I love this vessel. Morale onboard is just excellent despite the challenges with living aboard on top of kids and some seriously anchoring unfriendly islands. Love my life 🫶🌋🌏
