We're almost in LA, almost.
If it wasn't for the engine overheating issues, we'd be even more almost there. We've stopped in Port San Luis to ask for help - In our typical fashion, creeped in at night, emerged from the fog.
The landscape has changed from the lush forestful coasts of British-Columbia, to the arid dust dun...

This is how we spent our time in San Francisco.
We left the city a bit later than we were supposed to because of the windvane, we really needed to go see it. So happy we went, now we have a secondary self-steering system on Pino! It looks amazing and we can't wait to get it working.
Thank you so much Sintecta for...
We are currently working on some sticker packs, we will ship a random Oquonie character to our Second Officers (15$+ backers) at the end of the month. We will also be shipping some other secret stickers (oh oh ohh~).
Can't wait to send them out, these will look amazing in print! We are also working on some stickers ...

We did it!!
We sailed from Vancouver to San Francisco! Not bad for people who didn't know how to sail just 6 months ago! We made 2 stops, one in Newport OR and the other in Fort Bragg CA. We had a great time, buddy boated with our friends from SV Essencia for the first leg of the trip and went solo for the rest of the way...
We are settling nicely into a working routine, everyday we row to shore to a cafe to work on Markle. We found a style we liked and now things are moving forward!
To put it simply, Markle is about planning, and in some strange way, is also about programming. The main way to move about the world is to plan a sequence of ac...

We made it so San Francisco, to think we didn't know how to sail just 6 months ago.
We sailed 700nm, in heavy fog and cold, through pods of whales and high seas. We rounded the dreaded Cape Mendocino with ease, and cautiously crossed the bars to Newport, Fort Bragg and San Francisco. The trip cost us our Gennaker, torn t...

A bit technical, but we hope that this answers the questions you might have had about the map on our homepage.

We just arrived in Newport, OR. We sailed south with friends and met with other sailers with whom we will keep on going south until we reach San Francisco next week. We're staying here for a few days, to wait out the storm by Cape Mendocino!

This story comes from Mike Michalik, who sailed from Poland to Greenland.

In this video we talk about our attempt of sailing to hawaii, and how now we are more confused than ever about what we want to do.
Fear not though, we'll figure it out in time.
The video features footage of our latest game Markle! Let us know what you think.
Enjoy :)
Thank you for your continued support...

We hit a storm and could not make it to Hawaii. The weather was so rough, we could not capture any footage. We decided to start making a series of podcasts that talks about some of our adventures in audio only format.

We are preparing ourselves a bag to take with us in the dinghy if something happens to PINO. We are also preparing food rations and water bottles, not shown in the picture. Exciting times!
What would you keep in a survival kit?

We have a lot of things to do before we leave for Hawaii. These days a lot of our time is spent getting the boat ready for the trip. We apologize for not updating as often, balancing boat life and work is difficult these days. We're still adjusting to life on the water, getting used to not having a stable internet connection.
We're slowly gathering information and skills in order to sail to Hawaii. It will be a three to four weeks trip. Our friend Germain will join us for the adventure. We will be crashing our friends MC & Renaud's honeymoon in Maui, waste the fall away, and plan the upcoming leg, to Japan.
We will document our life aboard ...

We have renamed our sailboat PINO!
There are things you can do to make a place feel like home, like changing the name of your vessel.
We spent 3 days scraping the old name from the hull, one person sitting precariously in Iggy (our dinghy) and the other perched on the dock. With tips from friends, we managed to d...

We have been moving non-stop for the past few weeks, sailing from Victoria all the way up to Gabriola island. And this morning we arrived at Eagle Harbour in West Vancouver. It's been amazing, but because we set sail every 2-3 days we don't have a lot of time to prepare complex meals. Simple doesn't mean boring, this recipe is p...

We are installing 2 solar panels on the boat so we can finally spent the sunny days, inside, on our laptops! Together, they will generate around 13 amps, which should be plenty to not be reliant on shore power any more.
