After four years of boatwork, we have untied the lines and realized the dream of cruising the world. Julia is a wooden Atkin Ingrid ketch, traditionally built in 1960. Her recent voyage began in 2021, in Seattle, Washington, and has included sailing south along the US west coast to Mexico, and west across the Pacific Ocean. She was made for the seas, and has continued to show us that sailing on a wooden boat has been worth all the effort to make it happen. Thanks for following along as we share film from our adventures.
Cheers, Jonathan & Whitney

19 | Sailing The Yasawa Islands of Fiji
Setting sail in our classic wooden boat, we cross nearly the entire breadth of Fiji to cruise in the Yasawa Islands. Leaving the lush forested island of Makogai, we sail the famous Bligh Waters to the drier leeward side of the Island group. In the Yasawa and Mamanuka islands we find friendly villages and spectacular coral reefs.
With the seasons changing, we start to think about another big ocean passage, looking to find safer latitudes to ride out the hurricane season.
Julia is a traditional wooden boat, built of cedar and fir on oak frames. She was built in 1960 to the Ingrid design by William Atkin. Her tender is built skin-on-frame to the Annabelle design by Dave Gentry.

18 | Sailing the Spectacular Islands of Fiji, Vanua Balavu and Makogai
zhlédnutí 67KPřed 3 měsíci
We sailed Julia upwind to Fiji's remote Lau group, and were rewarded with one of the most spectacular cruising grounds we have ever visited. Vanua Balavu's Bay of Islands is filled with beautiful islets with perfectly calm anchorages and countless coves to explore. It is a dinghy sailing paradise. After an overnight passage to the seldom visited island of Makogai, we toured an abandoned leprosy...
17 | Exploring the Islands of Fiji, Vanua Levu and Taveuni
zhlédnutí 71KPřed 4 měsíci
After the two week ocean passage to Fiji, we settle in to the little town of Savusavu. The boat needed some repairs after the long crossing, and then we explore the many wonders of Fiji, from waterfalls and sugar cane to chocolate and kava root. Setting sail for Viani Bay, we had a rough upwind bash, but eventually made it on the second try. We found a dive resort with free moorings on Taveuni,...

After waiting for a weather window, we set sail from French Polynesia for an 1800 nautical mile passage to Fiji. This stretch of ocean is notoriously squally and unpredictable. We experienced variable winds and some significant swell rolling in from systems in the southern ocean. After a successful voyage, we made landfall in the beautiful country of Fiji. Our boat Julia is an Atkin designed In...

We continued sailing westward through the Society Islands. In peaceful Taha'a we rode the tidal currents over a beautiful coral reef. A perfect crossing under full sail brought us to Bora Bora, where we swam with sharks and rays before climbing the central mountain to take in the spectacular views of the island and it's barrier reef. As the days on our traveler's visa became scarce, we checked ...

We left the Tuomotus on a 240 nautical mile passage to Mo'orea in the Society Islands. These islands are like a geologic combination of the towering Marquesas and the coral ribbons of the Tuomotus. After a brief visit to Tahiti to pick up additional crew, we explored the ancient ruins and towering views of Mo'orea before another 80 mile passage to the lush island of Huahine. Our vessel Julia is...

Though the Marquesas Islands had captivated us with their beauty, it was time to set sail on the 500 nautical mile passage to the Tuomotus. When we arrived we found islands that were different from the Marquesas in nearly every way. Turquoise lagoons lined by white sand beaches awaited us, and we found beautiful coral reefs surrounding the palm fringed islets. Julia is a traditional wooden boat...

We set sail on an ocean passage from Mazatlan, Mexico to Nuku Hiva in the Marquesas Islands. Sailing across an ocean has been a long-held dream for us, but we were not planning on extending this cruise so far from home. But, we realized that if we were serious about bluewater cruising, the time was right. We decided to take the leap and sail 2800 nautical miles across the open ocean, reaching t...

Very nice videography and editing. Very nice! Great life. Be safe.
Have you ever heard of the Cubuf wooden 43 foot sail? Wayne owned it and had it at Lake Tahoe for many years until he moved it to the desert of Fallon Nevada. I just noticed it was for sale back in 2013. It was built back in 1931 and he use to sail the top gun pilots on it. Alden design and a classic
When we stopped at Cabo briefly quickly the harbor patrol came out and wanted money so we continued to La paz
Island San Martin has kelp beds on the other side , good scuba
Lovely scenery in those reefs as you scuba dive. Scared of the seas as I can't swim but appreciate the scenery and interaction. Adoring South African. Thanks for sharing 🎉🎉🎉
