Father Scott J Garrett Wind Causes Abort Landing Koliganek
Unknown to me, the wind in Koliganek, Alaska was severe. The ATIS was reporting calm winds. It wasw blowing at least 30 knots but do not know for sure, it was probably more. As I started my approach I started to be tossed around and noticed a strong crosswind, I aborted the approach and flew on to Clarks Point. Feb 11, 2011.

Sailing Mediterranean - 6 Menorca
Paul and Sheryl sail into the historic harbour of Mahon, on the island of Menorca, said by the British Admiral Nelson to be the safest harbour in the Mediterranean. They moor at a unique floating platform called Isla Clementina anchored in the middle of the harbour where they are welcomed into a community of international cruising sailors. The Shards crawl through ancient natural tunnels in the cliffs to visit Neolithic cave-dwellings, Megalithic tombs and later explore sites where an unidentified culture has built huge standing stones and towers.

Ep1- Leaving a life on land and setting sail as a liveaboard.
The adventure begins!
This is the very first episode of 'Sailing Fair Isle', having sold our house and most of our possessions we are embarking on a trip around the world. Join us as we sail along the South coast of the UK to Plymouth to join ARC Portugal. A rally organised by the World Cruising Club to sail from Plymouth to Lagos in the Algarve.
In this episode we sail the whole Southern coast of England spending time in the Solent, the mecca of British sailing. Play with seals in a fantastic anchorage on the Isle of Wight, Newtown Creek. We visit some of our favorite UK ports such as Dartmouth, Salcombe and Torbay. This is a shake down cruise to prepare to take on the Bay of Biscay sailing from Plymouth direct to Bayona in Spain.
What we don't know is that the whole fleet will be scattered by a force 10 storm in Southern Biscay and we will be faced with very difficult sea conditions in the notorious Bay of Biscay.

OUR ADVENTURE:
We are sailing slowly around the world in our classic cutter rigged sailboat 'Fair Isle'. With the children leaving home we decided to sell our house in the UK and buy a boat in Holland. After two years refitting our Hans Christian 48T we have now set off a world voyage.
We are retiring early because we want to attempt this voyage in good health and while we're fit and strong enough to really enjoy it. We will have to work a bit as we go until we can draw our pensions and we honestly don't know how well that will work. In our real lives we are journalists and filmmakers so it was only natural for use to document our travels by filming the journey. We aim to produce a professional standard vlog of the whole trip and try to give the viewer a real insight into what it's like to live and travel on a 48 foot sailboat.
Our first aim is to sail South. After a winter getting iced in on the Markermeer in the Netherlands Judy insisted on warmer weather! So if you start from Episode 1 you will see us setting off from Eastbourne in the UK and travelling along the South Coast to Plymouth to enter a rally called ARC Portugal.
Our first goal is to reach the Mediterranean and that means sailing across the infamous Bay of Biscay. This was a very good test for our boat as the bay lived up to it's fearsome reputation and split the whole fleet with a force 10 storm. Storm Miguel cut through our path and meant we had to run to mainland Spain to escape the massive seas and fearsome winds. Six boats couldn't make it in time and spent several very uncomfortable days at sea. The fleet had several broken boats, but thankfully no injured people. And this was just Episode 2!
The excitement continued for the rest of our trip to the Med. Dolphins played in our bow wave, we sampled fantastic local foods and wines, great port in Porto! We found some beautiful anchorages and visit some wonderful historic places like Lisbon in Portugal, Cadiz in Spain and the fascinating port of Gibraltar.
We will show you what it's like to winter in the Mediterranean, how much it all costs and give hints and tips on where to go how to save money with your boat and the places you stay. We are also talking to other sailors. After years of broadcasting journalism we know how to get peoples stories and we regularly film other sailors to show their boats and lifestyle as well as ours. We can always learn from others.
Our long term plan is to spend a few years in the Mediterranean, on our list of place we want to visit are; Mallorca, Malta, Corsica, Sardinia, Sicily, Greece, Turkey, Croatia, Montenegro, Albania, Italy, Tunisia, to name but a few!
When we feel we've seen the best of what the Med has to offer we will cross the Atlantic to the Caribbean, we are hoping we can fit in a trip to the Azores on the way.
We have no idea how long we might want to stay in the Caribbean but we do intend to have at least one excursion up the Eastern seaboard of the United States to visit the wonderful sailing areas of Florida, Virginia, sailing Meccas such as Chesapeake bay and hopefully get all the way up to New York.
Of course the South Pacific is somewhere every sailor wants to go and will be a real draw for us. So going through the Panama canal will be a real milestone and we really look forward to having the big doors shut behind us and sailing into the biggest sailing playground of all!

Lanzarote Boats, schooner, glass bottom and fishing boat.
Lanzarote Holiday 2014 Video 2 in the series.
We take a look at a few of the boats and on water activity seen while staying at Sandos Papagayo Beach Resort in Lanzarote.
The video starts off with a delightful schooner retuning from its anchorage near Papagayo beach to it’s berth at Marina de Rubicon.
We then see the same schooner at Marina de Rubicon a few days later after we walked in.
After this we see a fast motor boat towing some kayaks while the glass bottom boat tried to catch up.
These were heading for Papagayo beach.
Finally we see a small fishing boat named ‘Trinidad’ at anchor just off our beach, the two man crew are busily engaged in fishing.
Sailing on the Alma - San Francisco Bay - 8/20/2011
Alma is a wooden-hulled scow schooner built in 1891 to carry bulk cargo. The flat-bottomed hull was designed to navigate the shallow waters of the Sacramento/San Joaquin Delta and to rest on the bottom at low tide. Alma, designated a National Historic Landmark in 1988, is now part of the San Francisco Maritime National Historical Park's fleet of historic vessels at Hyde Street Pier. She sails June - November. Video and photos of my ride on the Alma on August 20, 2011.
Aud
The Aud was originally a British ship, SS Castro, captured by a German Motor torpedo boat early in WW1, and re-named SS Libau and then disguised as the Norwegian (Neutral) ship Aud Norge registered in Bergen, Norway. It was the ship carrying 20,000 rifles (obsolete Russian weapons) 1,000,000 rounds of ammo, 10 Machine guns, and some explosives that was to accompany Roger Casement at Banna Strand in 1916. Captured by the Royal Navy and escorted to an anchorage off Cobh, the crew scuttled her, and surrendered.

SUMMARY
=======
Bermuda () is a British Overseas Territory in the North Atlantic Ocean. It is approximately 1,070 km (665 mi) east-southeast of Cape Hatteras, North Carolina; 1,236 km (768 mi) south of Cape Sable Island, Nova Scotia; and 1,759 km (1,093 mi) north of Cuba. The capital city is Hamilton. Bermuda is self-governing, with its own constitution and its own government, which enacts local laws, while the United Kingdom retains responsibility for defence and foreign relations.
Bermuda's two largest economic sectors are offshore insurance and reinsurance, and tourism. Bermuda had one of the world's highest GDP per capita for most of the 20th century. The island has a subtropical climate and lies in the hurricane belt and thus is prone to related severe weather; however, it is somewhat protected by a coral reef that surrounds the island and its position at the north of the belt, which limits the direction and severity of approaching storms.

Whale & Dolphin Watching in Port Stephens
Did some whale and dolphin watching whilst spending a week in Nelson Bay, Port Stephens. The weather was absolutely spectacular with little or no wind. The sea was very calm which made for a very enjoyable day. On top of seeing a pod of whales and dolphins we were visited a number of times by FA-18 Hornets out of RAAF Williamtown.

SUMMARY
=======
The Maritime history of the United Kingdom involves events including shipping, ports, navigation, and seamen, as well as marine sciences, exploration, trade, and maritime themes in the arts from the creation of the kingdom of Great Britain as a united, sovereign state, on 1 May 1707 in accordance with the Treaty of Union, signed on 22 July 1706. Until the advent of air transport and the creation of the Channel Tunnel, marine transport was the only way of reaching the British Isles. For this reason, maritime trade and naval power have always had great importance.
Prior to the Acts of Union, 1707, the maritime history of the British Isles was largely dominated by that of England. (See Maritime history of England for more details.)
