- The boat repairs are complete and we head for the seaway and a course for southern latitudes.
We cruise extensively along the East Australian Coast on our 13 meter catamaran. Join us as we explore new cruising grounds, cross bars, fix all kinds of problems, ride out rough weather and live aboard for extended periods.
We even have a playlist that gets us on other peoples boats.
We hope that our videos encourage others to get on board and experience this fantastic lifestyle.

Keep on working on that Curtis.
The lifestyle is worth the effort.

@@MotorSailingforOldDudes thank you for your words of encouragement right now it's hard I'm watching my wife fight cancer and lupus
Wow Norm! Your headsail is way bigger than I thought. Having friends like this is so nice, especially when have the tools you need! I was very impressed at how you handled the docking maneuver. Well done sir.
Thanks Edward,
Always good to have good mates.
Peggy-Anne makes me look good when docking.
Cheers mate.
@@MotorSailingforOldDudes , good to have two motors to manoeuvre, but you still need to know how to do it, well done.
Hi Norm, I am sorry I missed you we will cross paths one day. I'm a couple of weeks off home in the Brisbane River. I am finding to hot this time of the year sitting out in the sun no shade. I get the boat ready for next season. Go home do maintenance on the house to keep my wife happy. Safe sailing Norm regards Simon
Great Simon.

Enjoy the house thing.
Cheers mate.

Good stuff Norm, safe travels. It has been a couple of years since I sailed this section of the coast, so looking forward to an update on each of the ports you call into
No worries Nigel. It's a great coast for cruising.
Great video. Where is videos of the bar crossings ?
Hi Arno, They're a little bit behind, but I'm crossing a lot of them, with guided tours.
Cheers mate.
