Jamie spent five days documenting the sparse life Jamie spent five days documenting the sparse life of Indonesia's fishing communities. We've spent years dodging the 'bagan' fishing platforms that litter the coast, so it was a real privilege to learn how they work first-hand. Link to full documentary in bio. * * * #photography #documentaryphotography #fishing #nightfishing #indonesia #sumbawa #photodocumentary #fishingphotography #photoproject
Bet you can't guess where we made our fastest bord Bet you can't guess where we made our fastest border crossing? How about the slowest? Then there's the time we were cleared in by a man on a bicycle. And we'll never forget the fella in white flowing gowns who took a few dollars and allowed us to go anywhere and stay as long as we liked... If you've ever wondered how cruisers travel between countries on a sailboat, we spill the beans and tell some yarns in this guide to crossing borders. Look for the full video podcast on our sailing channel (link in bio). Or listen to the episode wherever you get your podcasts. Peace and fair winds!

Indonesia is rich in sights, sounds and smells, an Indonesia is rich in sights, sounds and smells, and our vids are always full of the surprises we find here. Jamie took these pics in Sumbawa, a seldom-visited-by-tourists island between busy Bali and quirky Komodo. We love it. If you haven't already seen episode 353 (we talk about the thorny subject of VHF radio etiquette too) click the link in our bio. Liz and Jamie 🙏😁👌 #indonesia #sailing #sumbawa #fishinglife #volcano

Liz is not well, and since nobody needs to hear so Liz is not well, and since nobody needs to hear someone sniffing and coughing their way through a podcast, we’re postponing the full episode and asking for your help instead… What would YOU like us to talk about in a future podcast? Do you have any burning questions? We’re happy to tackle any subject, whether it’s to do with boats, sailing, cruising or the meaning of life. Let us know what interests you in the comments, or join the conversation on Discord (link in comments)… We’ll be fighting fit and BACK SOON! Check the comments for links to everything! #sailing #podcast #videopodcast #sailboats #indonesia #lombok
Did you know that heatstroke causes the body's cel Did you know that heatstroke causes the body's cells to melt from the inside out? And it's not just heat we need to consider. If the relative humidity is above 65% on a hot day our bodies reach crisis level in 15 minutes. 2022 was the hottest year in the UK on record, and July 2023 is the hottest month ever known in the WORLD! Understanding how to survive a heatwave is a lesson we all need to learn... fast. In the latest video podcast, we look at how our bodies keep us cool in extreme temperatures on a sailboat. And we learn how to help our incredible natural regulating systems work. Search for "How to Survive Extreme Heat on a Sailboat" wherever you get your podcasts. Or watch the video podcast in the usual place (follow the link in our profile). #heat #heatstroke #heatwave #sunburn #sailing #sailboat

All the usual exotic luxuries: batteries, cable ties, de-humidifier blocks, siphon pumps, bog rolls, food, drink. Trip to the dentist. It's just one long party. #boatshopping #recycledbags #shoppingbags #noplastic
