Sorry for any inconvenience!Loev you all Nicky xx

Need Your help and advice guys!

I'm making new designs for our merch to up the choices on our site and one of them I'm struggling with! I wanted a cheeky design showing a catamaran and me with the slogan saying "always late, but worth the wait"  but I just can't seem to fit that brief right and I don't want a shirt design no one will want to wear! So Guys can you look at the three logo designs and see if you like any of them, and would you wear a t-shirt or what ever with any of them on? 

Thanks in advance f...

Trouble at Anchor!

It's not always sunshine and roses guys! Here's a little sneaky peek for our patrons only of upcoming footage! Major storm and accident at anchor, which you will get to see in episodes coming up in Turkey. The Datca anchorage definitely turned out to be a very eventful anchorage on the daily!! But it doesn't put us off, it's just very frustrating!! 

Sandy Playgrounds

We see and visit so many gorgeous beaches that its hard to pick a favourite, but last year after a hard sail in the winter months me and Bear took the dog and had a fantastic walk along one of the most awesome beaches we've ever visited, we was only sad that due to the weather we couldn't stay long! But it was still a favourite memory and a beautiful location at Prasonisi Beach, Rhodes! You'll have to look out for that episode later in the year guys 👍

Re-posting Episode 185

Hi guys, its seems there is a little glitch in the episode 185 I uploaded on here earlier! I'm not sure if any of you have experienced it but nearing the end of the episode it was getting stuck, I'm not sure why but I have re-rendered and uploaded it again to YouTube and it seems to have fixed the issues. So watch this one guys, hopefully it will run smoothly! Let me know if there are any further issues. Love Piccalilli xx
