Lots of work ahead :O!

December 2017: A private island meeting on Pakatoa

Second hand marine goods

A lot of the new items we get are new to us, but old to someone else.

We have always been adepts of second-hand shopping, it's a lifestyle that translates perfectly well to life on the water. Marine goods are costly, and so it has become a necessity for us to pick and choose what can be purchased new.

Why buy second hand goods?

We live in times that we produce more than we consume, it's never become so important to think about the purchases that we do make. ...

How I animate sprites - tutorial

My animation style is by no means complicated, and it provides good results. This tutorial will be about animating simple idles in photoshop. There is no re-drawing involved, all you'll be doing is warping individual body parts. I used this animation style for Oquonie, although I did have to re-draw some of the legs to make proper walk cycles. Examples of animations I've made in this style can be found 2017-11-26 03:57:56 +0000 UTC View Post

November 2017 - Our Salty Sail to New Zealand

Our latest video is out, and features our 9-day 1,200NM passage to New Zealand, from Vava'u Tonga! 

We had a very salty sail, lots of waves and wind. Pino made great speed, it's one of the fastest passages we've made. Fast often means less comfortable, most of the time we were heeled over and being below wasn't much fun. Going to the bathroom, a normally simple affair on land, becomes a chore at sea. Any simple task becomes complicated. 

We're happy to have arr...

Hey guys,

I'm still trying to finish writing my book Wiktopher at the moment, but I've also been hard at work trying to find the right cover for it. I would like to know what you think, if you saw it on a shelf, would you buy it?

Looking forward to your feedback,

Achievement unlocked

We did it!

Pino and its crew arrived safely in New Zealand on October 31st! The trip took us about 10 days, averaging a speed of 6-9kts (our boat typically runs at 5-6kts). We arrived here crazy fast, which is just as well, the winds were getting stronger by the day. It was a very salty passage, we got waves coming into the cockpit often. We also discovered leaks in both of our hatches, we awoke one night to a waterfall coming down onto our sleeping area. Yep, our bed was soaked ...

Recipe: Breadfruit gnocchi

We are about to leave Tonga, the tropics, and the land of bountiful breadfruit. This versatile fruit, can be cooked into fries, eaten with coconut milk, made into chips, or like this recipe suggests, it can be made into gnocchi.

Breadfruit has a taste and texture that resembles that of potato, and so, it only makes sense that it too, can be made into gnocchi. The flesh of the fruit can be kneaded easily, especially if the fruit is very ripe. I have tried to knead it when half-ripe, it works to...

On Markl

For those who haven't heard, fantastic news! We have resumed work on Markl, a project that we had to shelve a year ago, because of our lack of connectivity and resources. We picked up the project again this week, and fleshed out almost all of it! The game, we hope, will be released before xmas.

Good day rabbits!

We've been experimenting a lot in the galley as of late, being in a stable anchorage gives us time to be creative. We appreciate this change of pace. Here is our latest recipe.

July 2017 : Drifting towards Rarotonga
