Mini Series 2024 - 8 - After my last post I'm not sure this video is ok either?? But I hope so!? Finding deserted anchorages, islands, beaches and old buildings to spend time exploring is our favourite thing... pure tranquility! Especially after any boat trippers have been and gone in the evenings 🤗
2024-02-20 15:24:24 +0000 UTC View PostI just wanted to put up a quick apology, I have removed episode 183, a patron had a problem with it as he found it disrespectful, (when I touched the props in the deserted chapel and was trying to make the kids giggle) and I am truly sorry and upset that my actions have made anyone, particularly a patron feel like that! Also the comment was on YouTube not on here so sadly started a whole negative thread on the episode. I will do my best to re-edit, re-render and re-upload the episode as...

I've never seen so many perfect sunsets until I lived on the sea, they really are the best after a great day sailing or exploring or just chilling on Pickle!

We have a very early start this week as we sail our way to our final Greece island of Kos, we encounter some big winds and slowly tack our way into a safe little anchorage, where we get to hang out for a few days and explore parts of the beautiful Island, we will be sailing on next week checking out of Greece and onto Turkey!

We have great sails in these Greek Island with or without wind! This week we heave to during a very hot sail to swim in the very deep, cool, blue Aegean Sea which is hundreds of meters down and quite spectacular to swim in! Much later after our cool down we complete our sail into a fabulous little bay and anchor surrounded by white beaches, turquoise shallow waters and have incredible fun with the kids and dog exploring our new home for a few days!

The Big winds have finally settled down, so we sail away from the huge wildfires, wishing mainland Greece all the luck in the world to get a handle on all the craziness which is happening across this beautiful country and we sail onto some very cute and isolated anchorages! We get some dodge salty water in our tanks, so we're on the hunt for fresh water which we can actually drink and explore remote and ancient ruins on little islands, which are great for spears fishing, snorkelling and of co...

We Sail through huge ship anchorages to the beautiful Athens! We are in the middle of a crazy heatwave, but decide its our only opportunity to explore the city so Nicky and the kids go anyway! We want to see the ACROPOLIS! Over the centuries, the Acropolis was many things: a home to kings, a citadel, a mythical home of the gods, a religious center and now for us a wonderful tourist attraction. It has withstood bombardment, massive earthquakes and vandalism yet still stands as a reminder of th...

We Sail on this week and find ourselves in a fantastic spot with turquoise waters, 360 protection and a very quirky little village to explore! The Blue lagoons we anchor in near Athens are a fantastic stop off for a few days, we enjoy the beautiful waters, teach Bear to use a spear gun safely, find a great drop off where we can do some free diving practice and when we explore ashore we find the oddest building Iv ever seen..... Is it really a witch that lives there?? You can decide!

Love this week, we have sooo much fun! Join us for some Epic sails, as we fly along whizzing under a huge bridge, which is a first for us and sail on to find some cute little anchorages and finally traverse the Corinth Canal! What an experience, all the history and architecture behind the canal makes for a very fun and exciting journey!

Another busy week aboard Pickle this week guys!

Epic fun this week guys! We set off with the first light to sail to the Blue Caves, and wow it was definitely worth it! Come and join us as we tender through some big caves and tunnels, snorkel through big caves and swim in the underwater passages and then free dive off the huge beautiful drop off in crystal clear waters! Sailing on for new adventures after 👍Hope you enjoy as much as we did!

Nicky definitely has fun up her bum this week as we sail to new destinations, discovering beautiful new anchorages, exploring deserted islands and practicing Warrior skills with the legendary dragon staff! We fight off the huge spiders on an infested island, and treat ourselves to a very yummy lunch in a quaint and busy touristy town of Gatos on the island of Paxos, Greece.

We check in to Greece this episode. The checking in process in Corfu is pretty straight forward and after trekking back and forth we get things sorted, grab a tasty Greece take away and head back to the kids and Pickle to start our Greek adventures! We have a great start anchoring outside Corfu castle and head further down the coast, cruising along enjoying a bit of crazy fun surfing behind Pickle on our Paddleboard 🤪

We may have been quiet the last couple of weeks, but we have been enduring some big storms, narly sailing, long night shifts and days hidden in tiny anchorages with no signal waiting out storms! Fun of winter Mediterranean sailing 😜

We’re in a dusty boat yard! We have antifoul to do, through hull fittings and seacocks to change, a cavertational plate to make and fit to our drive leg and lots, lots more! But we manage to get everything done fix a major electrical problem when we’re lifted back in and think we’re in the clear…. We’re NOT, When will it end? And Finally get back out to anchor and enjoy boat-life, Yay. Join us next week as we sail to Greece!
