Sailing misadventures. Yes, it is unfortunately tautological. But if it's taught us anything, it's that anything is better than not sailing, I think.
Sailing Misadventures is the comic tale of three blokes on a 48-foot catamaran setting-out to sail from Cebu in the Philippines to Phuket in Thailand. Unfortunately, no one dies, gets injured or even has to be rescued; but all these diverting options, and many others, were variously in prospect on a daily basis.
Like many sailing adventures, it often starts out well. Well yes, that's usually the case before you start, otherwise you probably wouldn't. Although sometimes, even before you start, there are any number of embuggerances including equipment, bureaucracy, time (its ubiquitous absence) and people (oh yes, people - more of that later) and not excluding almost everything and anything else. No wonder sailing is full of misadventures. And when you add the sea, the weather and surprisingly, the land into all that, misadventure is almost an inevitability.
But, we still do it because....
Yes, that is a tricky one. I'll leave you to answer that one on your own.
But, if you're looking for misadventure, here are some options you might like to try.
He now lives in the bush outside Bungendore, NSW (oddly, rather a long way from the sea) and sails the south coast of New South Wales, Australia, from Bateman's Bay in his Endurance 35 and Tophat 25. Yes, two yachts because Hugh thinks that you can never have enough messing about in boats and he seems to have no obvious regard for the value of money.
Hugh would be a very keen racer, except that he couldn't be bothered. He considers cruising both a noun and a verb and, while afloat, prefers his coffee shaken not stirred. His current plans are to cruise right around Australia - preferably without the need to put pen to paper for more Sailing Misadventures.
