So many people mentioned how beautiful the boats and the marina looked. I truly think we made a real impact and brought some fantastic positive attention to Breast Cancer Awareness! 💗 Well done everyone - what a team effort! 🙌 https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-09-24-morning-light-on-the-horizon-as-we-set-off-from-tresco-isles-of-scilly/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-09-24-morning-light-on-the-horizon-as-we-set-off-from-tresco-isles-of-scilly/ Wed, 24 Sep 2025 00:00:00 GMT Morning light on the horizon as we set off from Tresco Isles of Scilly to Arklow, Ireland. One and a half days and 174 nautical miles of pure champagne sailing. Two sunrises, two sunsets, and perfect down wind conditions let us hoist our symmetric spinnaker for the very first time in the middle of the Celtic Sea. We were quite often surrounded by a school of dolphins, even a baby one 🫶🏻🐬, and a pied fly catcher🐦‍⬛joined us for the night. What a fantastic adventure great times, great memories, and a whole lot of sea breeze! 😍 #lagertha #westerlyoceanlord #uksailing #adventurelife #sailing #sailingboat #instasailing #sailinginstagram #boatlifestyle #boat #sailors #sailingcouple #explorers #digitalnomad #cruising #wanderlust #vitaminsea #trescoislesofscilly #arklow #celticsea #dolphine https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-09-04-just-spent-a-few-blissful-days-on-the-isles-of-scilly-from-an-ebike-to/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-09-04-just-spent-a-few-blissful-days-on-the-isles-of-scilly-from-an-ebike-to/ Thu, 04 Sep 2025 00:00:00 GMT Just spent a few blissful days on the Isles of Scilly - from an e‑bike tour around St Mary’s Island, soaking up the sandy beaches and wild nature, to sailing out to New Grimsby anchorage and visiting Tresco Island. The highlights? Stopping by Tresco Abbey Garden to admire the extraordinary plants 🪴 🌴 and the unique Valhalla ship figureheads - they’re a real eye‑catcher! We then set course for Bryher in our dinghy, where we savoured a lobster 🦞 farewell dinner whilst topping up our electric outboard (currents are very strong here 😅), strolled along the quiet island at dusk, and watched the sunset 🌅 from the deck of Lagertha ⛵️ before heading out early for a 39‑hour passage back to Arklow on the Irish coast. What a perfect blend of adventure, nature and a bit of cheeky sea‑life! 😊 #lagertha #westerlyoceanlord #uksailing #adventurelife #sailing #instasailing #boatlifestyle #boat #sailors #sailingcouple #explorers #digitalnomade #cruising #wanderlust #vitaminsea #travel #islesofscilly #tresco #bryher #arklow #segeln #abenteuer #trescoabbeygardens #stmarys #reiselust #reiseblogger https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-08-27-we-were-sailing-in-the-middle-of-the-celtic-sea-aboard-lagertha-when-a/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-08-27-we-were-sailing-in-the-middle-of-the-celtic-sea-aboard-lagertha-when-a/ Wed, 27 Aug 2025 00:00:00 GMT We were sailing in the middle of the Celtic Sea aboard Lagertha when a curious pied flycatcher decided to join our crew! He hopped onto our deck, had a moths dinner, swung on the ropes like a tiny sailor, and then curled up for a nap in the breeze. By morning he was off, ready for new adventures. 🌊🦅 #lagertha #sailinglagertha #westerlyoceanlord #sailingyacht #uksailing #adventurelife #sailing #sailingboat #instasailing #sailinginstagram #boatlifestyle #boat #sailors #sailingcouple #explorers #digitalnomade #cruising #wanderlust #vitaminsea #travel #celticsea #piedflycatcher #birdwatching #wildlife #nature #sailinglife #yachtlife #sea #ocean #nautical https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-08-25-sailed-from-st-michaels-mount-back-to-isles-of-scilly-hugh-town-what-a/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-08-25-sailed-from-st-michaels-mount-back-to-isles-of-scilly-hugh-town-what-a/ Mon, 25 Aug 2025 00:00:00 GMT Sailed from St Michael’s Mount back to Isles of Scilly, Hugh Town - what a day! Dolphins joined us on the bow 🐬. After arriving we explored St Mary’s, ice‑cream 🍦, sunset 🌅, a few pints 🍺 and great company. We even seen the famous Women’s Gig Race from St Agnes to Hugh Town.

Another Westerly Oceanlord was rafting right next to us - great company. 🚤 We pulled out our e‑bikes and spent a full sunny day exploring St Michael’s Mount castle, the garden, the low‑tide path, and a sunset dinner with views of the castle that left us speechless. 🌅 The next days we cycled down to Moushole for a coffee with cones, stopped in Newlyn for fresh crab bab and got a few Oysters for dinner. Also had a dinner @mackerelskyseafoodbar . The crabs were absolutely divine! 🦀🍽️ Sailing couple life is the best when you mix the sea, the road, and a dash of Cornwall charm. #lagertha #sailinglagertha #westerlyoceanlord #sailingyacht #uksailing #adventurelife #sailing #sailingboat #instasailing #sailinginstagram #boatlifestyle #boat #sailors #sailingcouple #explorers #digitalnomade #cruising #wanderlust #vitaminsea #travel #penzance #cornwall #newlyn #stmichaelsmount #mackrelskyseafoodbar https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-08-17-we-just-escaped-from-the-isles-of-scilly-to-penzance-because-a-gale-wa/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-08-17-we-just-escaped-from-the-isles-of-scilly-to-penzance-because-a-gale-wa/ Sun, 17 Aug 2025 00:00:00 GMT We just escaped from the Isles of Scilly to Penzance because a gale was forecast – no wind at all, so we had to motor the whole passage with no sails up. Hope we can head back soon, but for now we’re just making holidays in Cornwall 😊 Not to bad either 😜 #lagertha #sailinglagertha #westerlyoceanlord #sailingyacht #uksailing #iom #adventurelife #isleofman #sailing #sailingboat #instasailing #sailinginstagram #boatlifestyle #boat #sailors #sailingcouple #explorers #digitalnomade #cruising #wanderlust #vitaminsea #travel #saillife #sailingadventures #sailingtrip #sailingphotography #penzance #islesofscilly #cornwall https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-08-16-sunny-day-in-st-martin-isle-of-scilly-we-stretched-our-legs-soaked-up/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-08-16-sunny-day-in-st-martin-isle-of-scilly-we-stretched-our-legs-soaked-up/ Sat, 16 Aug 2025 00:00:00 GMT Sunny day in St Martin, Isle of Scilly – we stretched our legs, soaked up the views and the sunshine before plotting our escape from the forecasted gale‑force winds heading to Penzance, South Cornwall. As a sailing couple living aboard Lagertha, we love catching these calm moments before the next adventure. 🌞⛵️ #lagertha #sailinglagertha #westerlyoceanlord #sailingyacht #uksailing #iom #adventurelife #isleofman #sailing #sailingboat #instasailing #sailinginstagram #boatlifestyle #boat #sailors #sailingcouple #explorers #digitalnomade #cruising #wanderlust #vitaminsea #travel #stmartins #isleofscilly #penzance #southcornwall #sunnyday #forecast #galeforcewinds #sailinglife https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-08-14-we-just-finished-a-36-hour-cruise-from-arklow-to-st-martin-isle-of-scilly-fog-hu/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-08-14-we-just-finished-a-36-hour-cruise-from-arklow-to-st-martin-isle-of-scilly-fog-hu/ Thu, 14 Aug 2025 00:00:00 GMT We just finished a 36-hour cruise from Arklow to St Martin Isle of Scilly. Fog hugged us at the start but cleared up soon, and we kept the sea calm for our first overnight sail aboard Lagertha. With little wind we motor-sailed most of the way to hit our 5 kt target - still a great adventure.

We had a lovely, easy sail today - a short hop from Dún Laoghaire down to Arklow. Sometimes the best sails aren’t about battling the elements. Just a gentle breeze and a chance to soak up the views from aboard Lagertha. 😊 We’re really enjoying exploring the Irish coast - it’s absolutely stunning! #lagertha #sailinglagertha #westerlyoceanlord #sailingyacht #uksailing #arklow #dúnlaoghaire #irishsea #sailing #sailingboat #instasailing #sailinginstagram #boatlifestyle #boat #sailors #sailingcouple #explorers #digitalnomade #cruising #wanderlust #vitaminsea #travel #irishcoast #sailinglife https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-08-02-across-the-irish-sea-from-port-erin-on-the-isle-of-man-to-dún-laoghair/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-08-02-across-the-irish-sea-from-port-erin-on-the-isle-of-man-to-dún-laoghair/ Sat, 02 Aug 2025 00:00:00 GMT Across the Irish Sea from Port Erin on the Isle of Man to Dún Laoghaire in Ireland. Not a huge amount of wind to play with, so it was a bit of a motor sail ⛵️Honestly, sometimes a little engine assistance is very welcome! The best bit? Having a pod of dolphins lead the way - always a magical moment. ✨ It took us nearly 13 hours, but we arrived just in time for a well-deserved Guinness! 🍻 Life aboard Lagertha is good, even when it involves a long passage. We’re definitely feeling the Vitamin Sea vibes now!😊 We stay here until storm Floris clears 🌊🌪️☔️ #lagertha #sailinglagertha #westerlyoceanlord #sailingyacht #uksailing #iom #isleofman #dunlaoghaire #ireland #irishsea #sailing #sailingboat #instasailing #sailinginstagram #boatlifestyle #boat #sailors #sailingcouple #explorers #digitalnomade #cruising #wanderlust #vitaminsea #travel #dolphins #motorsailing #guinness #adventurelife https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-08-01-happy-24-years-together-and-9-of-them-married-grateful-for-every-momen/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-08-01-happy-24-years-together-and-9-of-them-married-grateful-for-every-momen/ Fri, 01 Aug 2025 00:00:00 GMT Happy 24 years together and 9 of them married! ❤️ Grateful for every moment, laugh, challenge and adventure we’ve shared.

Honestly, the speed these guys (and girls!) were reaching was insane. Seriously impressive skills (and bravery!). I know already who’s gearing up for next year’s tournament … 😉 It’s a good job we’re used to a bit of speed on Lagertha, but this was a whole different level!

Seriously impressive to see a full-sized replica of a 17th-century Spanish galleon right in the harbour. It’s a proper time capsule, and you can almost smell the spices and hear the stories of voyages past. We spent ages exploring the decks and imagining life as a sailor back then. Definitely not as glamorous as living aboard Lagertha, I can tell you! 😂 It’s a bit of a contrast seeing this alongside our trusty Westerly Oceanlord, but both are beautiful in their own way. If you’re in Douglas, it’s absolutely worth a visit, a proper bit of seafaring history! ⚓️ #lagertha #sailinglagertha #westerlyoceanlord #sailingyacht #uksailing #iom #galeonandalucia #douglas #isleofman #adventurelife #sailing #sailingboat #instasailing #sailinginstagram #boatlifestyle #boat #sailors #sailingcouple #explorers #digitalnomade #cruising #wanderlust #vitaminsea #travel #history #spanishgalleon #seafaring #ships https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-06-26-this-is-what-a-1am-marina-arrival-looks-like-aboard-lagertha-were-gett/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-06-26-this-is-what-a-1am-marina-arrival-looks-like-aboard-lagertha-were-gett/ Thu, 26 Jun 2025 00:00:00 GMT This is what a 1am marina arrival looks like aboard Lagertha! 😅 We’re getting pretty good at reverse parking.

But once we left the TSS, the engine went off the wind picked up nicely at 70-80 degrees and maybe 15 knots or so?⛵️ Without the engine running its much more enjoyable. Cruising up with full sails out giving us a solid average of six knots towards Chicken Rock Lighthouse and the drinking dragon 🐉 at the southern tip of the IOM. When we turned northward, the wind just wasn’t strong enough for downwind sailing. So, we motored the last bit on the west coast to Peel Habour instead and waited until 1 o’clock in the morning when the lock/flap-gate opened, so we could go into the marina. #lagertha #sailinglagertha #westerlyoceanlord #sailingyacht #uksailing #iom #adventurelife #isleofman #sailing #sailingboat #instasailing #sailinginstagram #boatlifestyle #digitalnomade #cruising #vitaminsea #travel #irishsea #drinkingdragon https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-06-18-managed-to-scrape-ourselves-away-from-pwllheli-after-two-great-months/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-06-18-managed-to-scrape-ourselves-away-from-pwllheli-after-two-great-months/ Wed, 18 Jun 2025 00:00:00 GMT Managed to scrape ourselves away from Pwllheli after two great months there - lovely place for a break! Lagertha got some serious rigging TLC sorted while we were docked: a brand new standing rigging, new chain plates and a few shiny upgrades 🙌🏻 including a stay sail furler and a new spray hood and cockpit enclosure is up too - the old one took quite a battering in 2024 December’s storm! Now heading back to the IOM with 20 knots of true wind on the nose barrelling through the Bardsey Sound 📍 off North Wales. Let me tell you, the waves weren’t cooperating much today - all over the place and definitely not showing their proper height in these videos! It felt a bit like being tossed around in a washing machine out there 🤪. After we got out of that churning section though - switched off the engine after getting the genoa up. Put the gearbox into reverse (classic Max-Prop fold task)... and then couldn’t seem to wrestle the gear lever back into neutral 🤯! Had to turn the prop shaft manually with my hands just to get it sorted, which was definitely a bit of an emergency moment 😐. Added ‚gearbox investigation‘ to our to-do list. Next up, while we’re at it - the genoa didn’t quite furl completely! Seems like there were a few missing turns on the drum after all that rigging work, especially when it’s rolled tight in stronger winds. Anyway, arrived at Porthdinllaen anchorage 😌 and it was a beautiful sunny evening - perfect for recovering from the sea, getting some extra turns on the genoa furler drum and planning our next leg back to the Isle of Man. Sailing life? Never seems to get boring! 😉 #lagertha #sailinglagertha #westerlyoceanlord #sailingyacht #uksailing #adventurelife #isleofman #sailing #sailingboat #instasailing #sailinginstagram #boatlifestyle #boat #sailors #sailingcouple #explorers #digitalnomade #cruising #wanderlust #vitaminsea #travel #bardseysound #northwales #porthdinllaen #sailinglife #boatproblems #pwllheli #bardseyisland #bardseysound #porthdinllaen #seabreeze #britishisles https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-04-29-couldnt-resist-this-gorgeous-day-while-waiting-for-lagerthas-rigging-t/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-04-29-couldnt-resist-this-gorgeous-day-while-waiting-for-lagerthas-rigging-t/ Tue, 29 Apr 2025 00:00:00 GMT ☀️ Couldn’t resist this gorgeous day while waiting for Lagertha’s rigging to be finished! And new Sprayhood+Cockpit enclosure 🛠️ But with the boat temporarily out of action, I needed an adventure! Luckily, the sun was shining, and I traded sails for wheels! 🚴‍♀️ I dug out my biker leather getup – feeling a bit rebellious and ready to roll! – and raced across the peninsula from Pwllheli to Nefyn, where we recently anchored. 💨 The countryside hills were calling! ⛰️ It was a fantastic ride – feeling like a modern-day pirate on two wheels! – with the scent of fresh cut grass in the air and breathtaking views around every corner. Honestly, this ebike feels exactly like motor sailing! 😅 Topped it all off with a well-deserved refreshing pint 🍺 at the legendary Tŷ Coch Inn. 🤩 The only thing missing to make this a perfect day was my amazing @anaustriangirl to share this trip with! ❤️ #WalesAdventure #Pwllheli #Nefyn #EbikeLife #CyclingWales #MotorSailingVibes #TycocHInn #BeautifulScenery #ExploreWales #BikeAdventure #PerfectDay #MissingMyLove #WelshCoast #OutdoorAdventure #BikerStyle #TwoWheels #lagertha #sailinglagertha #westerlyoceanlord #sailingyacht #uksailing #iom #adventurelife #isleofman #sailing #sailinglife https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-04-13-porth-dinllean-to-st-tudwal-s-island-lunch-stop-and-finally-to-pwllheli-left-the/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-04-13-porth-dinllean-to-st-tudwal-s-island-lunch-stop-and-finally-to-pwllheli-left-the/ Sun, 13 Apr 2025 00:00:00 GMT Porth Dinllean to St Tudwal's Island (Lunch stop) and finally to Pwllheli! Left the lovely anchorage at Porth Dinllaen and set course for Pwllheli, where Lagertha's getting new rigging. Although the sun was out, we saw nearly nothing, thick fog all the way. 😶‍🌫️🌞 Bardsey Sound was a proper test! Known for ripping tides, overfalls, and wild currents. Made even more exciting by near-zero visibility but luckily nearly no wind and a rather calm sea. The radar got a workout, and the boat turned sharply more than once as the very strong tidal streams took hold. Definitely kept us on our toes! 💨🌊 Our planning was right, we wouldn't like to be there in unfavourable conditions. Had to keep a sharp lookout for lobster pots, too. Hard to spot when you're sailing in a cloud. 🦞 Just before we arrived at St Tudwal's Island for our lunch stop, the fog cleared and the sun came out in full. Beautiful sunny day to anchor and breathe before timing the tide into Pwllheli Marina. Great sailing day and adventurers. #SailingLife #BardseySound #FoggyPassage #RadarTest #pwllhelibound #sailinglagertha #westerlyoceanlord #sailingyacht #uksailing #adventurelife #sailing #sailingboat #instasailing #sailinginstagram #boatlife #boatlifestyle #boat #sailors #liveaboardlife #sailinstagram #sailincouple #explorers #travelcouple #cruising #wanderlust #vitaminsea #travel #floatinghome #oceanlife https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-04-12-up-at-4am-and-off-from-port-st-mary-to-catch-the-fast-tide-round-anglesey-timing/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2025-04-12-up-at-4am-and-off-from-port-st-mary-to-catch-the-fast-tide-round-anglesey-timing/ Sat, 12 Apr 2025 00:00:00 GMT Up at 4am and off from Port St Mary to catch the fast tide round Anglesey.

We had some nice downwind sailing, but the Irish Sea was seriously rolling! Had to keep the pace up to make the flap gate at Peel Marina, where Lagertha will get a well-deserved rest-and so will we! Both down with a cold, so we'll be taking some time off. Our next adventure awaits next season.

After a quick rethink, we decided the marina life wasn't so bad after all. With the wind and tide playing hard to get, we'll sit tight, enjoy the comforts, and wait for Mother Nature to cooperate! #sailinglife #belfasttobangor #sailingadventures #sailinglagertha #westerlyyachts #westerlyoceanlord #segeln #marinalife #swellproblems #flexiblesailing https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2024-09-02-chasing-the-summer-glenarm-to-belfast-city-marina-set-off-from-glenarm-with-full/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2024-09-02-chasing-the-summer-glenarm-to-belfast-city-marina-set-off-from-glenarm-with-full/ Mon, 02 Sep 2024 00:00:00 GMT ⛵ Chasing the Summer: Glenarm to Belfast City Marina Set off from Glenarm with full sails, but had to reef early due to some squalls with a bit of rain. Thankfully, the rest of the journey was mostly dry and sunny. Enjoyed some lovely days in Belfast, soaking up the sunshine and even fitting in a pub crawl! 🌞🍻 #sailinglife #belfastcitymarina #glenarmtobelfast #sailingadventures #chasingthesummer #sailinglagertha #westerlyyachts #westerlyoceanlord #segeln #pubcrawl https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2024-09-01-approaching-belfast-marina-made-it-to-belfast-marina-abercorn-basin-be/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2024-09-01-approaching-belfast-marina-made-it-to-belfast-marina-abercorn-basin-be/ Sun, 01 Sep 2024 00:00:00 GMT ⛵ Approaching Belfast Marina Made it to Belfast Marina, Abercorn Basin!

We set off with a southerly wind, knowing it would turn westerly by the time we reached the tide running in our favor, from north to south. The sea state was rough at the start, with the tide and wind against us. But Lagertha, our trusty boat, handled the challenging conditions like a champ. We were tacking south with our stay sail, making little progress and fighting the tide. Then, just as we were about to complete a tack, we noticed we were still on the same heading. For a moment, we were confused-had something gone wrong? But no, it was the wind shift we'd been waiting for, arriving so abruptly that it took us by surprise. With the shift, we enjoyed a smooth 45°-60° sail down to Glenarm, this time with our genoa. The final stretch was a mixed bag of calm winds, squalls, heavy rain, and bursts of sunshine. We're glad to be safely in Glenarm now, prepping for our next leg to Belfast. #sailinglife #northchannelcrossing #glenarm #sailingadventures #windshift #sailinglagertha #westerlyyachts #westerlyoceanlord #segeln #adventuresailing #tidesandwinds #belfastbound #sailingchallenges https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2024-08-27-ardfern-to-port-ellen-escaping-the-gale-prison-after-days-of-hiding-from-stronge/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2024-08-27-ardfern-to-port-ellen-escaping-the-gale-prison-after-days-of-hiding-from-stronge/ Tue, 27 Aug 2024 00:00:00 GMT ⛵ Ardfern to Port Ellen: Escaping the Gale "Prison" After days of hiding from stronger winds and gales in Ardfern, it started to feel like a prison. The constant battle of wind against tide was wearing us down. Today, the wind was lighter but still right on the nose and against the tide-at least we were spared the rain and had some sunshine! We decided to give our stay sail a try, thinking the gusts around 20 knots were ideal for testing. And wow, we're in love with it now! We set the autopilot to 30° on the wind, and Lagertha sailed like a dream. If only we'd tried it earlier on this trip 😅. Now, we're back to hiding from the next gale in Port Ellen, sipping on whisky and waiting for a good weather window to cross the North Channel to Ireland. If you're looking to train for heavy weather sailing, West Scotland in August is the place to be! We've only had a couple of nice days between all the strong winds and gales. We've learned a lot and are grateful for the experience, but a bit more of that holiday vibe from the start of our journey wouldn't have been so bad either. #sailinglife #sailingadventures #portshelter #portellen #westscotland #sailinglagertha #westerlyyachts #westerlyoceanlord #segeln #heavysailing #staysail #windagain #northchannel #whiskytasting https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2024-08-21-yet-another-summer-day-in-west-scotland-ah-summer-in-west-scotland-where-the-wea/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2024-08-21-yet-another-summer-day-in-west-scotland-ah-summer-in-west-scotland-where-the-wea/ Wed, 21 Aug 2024 00:00:00 GMT ☀️ Yet Another "Summer" Day in West Scotland! Ah, summer in West Scotland-where the weather always keeps you guessing! We started with rough seas and squalls, battling winds up to 28 knots. Things finally eased up south of Easdale, where the wind dropped to 12 knots. As we navigated the tricky Sound of Luing and Dorus Mor, the wind played its usual tricks. And just when we needed it for downwind sailing up Loch Craignish, it vanished altogether. To add some excitement, we had none other than Princess Anne herself just behind us as we entered Loch Craignish. After all that, we treated ourselves to a delicious venison steak from the Kerrera farm shop.

We had a farewell dinner with our friends and buddy boat crew from Kutani @farr.a.way The next day, we took a water taxi to Oban, enjoyed a full Scottish breakfast, did some tourist shopping, and walked to McCaig's Tower & Battery Hill. We also visited the distillery before heading back to Lagertha for a posh dinner with local oysters and crab, topped off by a rainbow over Oban. Managed to fit in a short walk on Kerrera too. #sailinglife #oban #kerrera #scottishadventures #sailinglagertha #farraway #mccaigstower #localoysters #localcrab #westscotland #westerlyyachts #westerlyoceanlord #segeln https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2024-08-16-journey-from-loch-aline-to-kerrera-oban-we-were-treated-to-the-northern-lights-a/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2024-08-16-journey-from-loch-aline-to-kerrera-oban-we-were-treated-to-the-northern-lights-a/ Fri, 16 Aug 2024 00:00:00 GMT ⛵ Journey from Loch Aline to Kerrera / Oban We were treated to the Northern Lights aurora early this morning in Loch Aline before setting off.

We spent the night in the cockpit from 1:30 am until 5:30 am, keeping an eye on things until they finally moved elsewhere. After a morning thunderstorm, we set off from Loch na Droma Buidhe, facing upwind gusts up to 30 knots. By evening, the weather turned in our favor, and we enjoyed a sunny downwind sail with full sails out. Now settled in Loch Aline, soaking in the calm before the next gale rolls in early tomorrow. #sailinglife #lochaline #shelterhopping #stormysailing #anchorwatch #upwindsailing #downwindsailing #scotland #westscotland #sailingadventures #sailinglagertha #westerlyyachts #westerlyoceanlord #segeln https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2024-08-13-heading-south-to-droma-buidhe-we-started-with-a-good-sail-before-switching-to-mo/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2024-08-13-heading-south-to-droma-buidhe-we-started-with-a-good-sail-before-switching-to-mo/ Tue, 13 Aug 2024 00:00:00 GMT ⛵ Heading South to Droma Buidhe We started with a good sail before switching to motor sailing for the second half. The highlight? A massive dolphin sighting that lasted about 25 minutes as they played at our bow! We anchored in Droma Buidhe with our buddy sailors on SY Kutani @farr.a.way , enjoyed a BBQ, and had some delicious venison kebabs from Inverie. We were also hiding from strong winds in the anchorage, but the night wasn't restful-a nearby boat's anchor dragged, keeping us on watch in the cockpit until 5:30 am when they finally moved. To top it off, we woke up to a thunderstorm this morning. #sailinglife #dromabuidhe #tobermory #boatsquad #dolphinsighting #sailingadventures #sailinglagertha #westscotland #sailingcouple #westerlyyachts #westerlyoceanlord #segeln https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2024-08-11-heading-south-to-droma-buidhe-sailing-south-to-droma-buidhe-near-tober/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2024-08-11-heading-south-to-droma-buidhe-sailing-south-to-droma-buidhe-near-tober/ Sun, 11 Aug 2024 00:00:00 GMT ⛵ Heading South to Droma Buidhe Sailing south to Droma Buidhe near Tobermory with our buddy sailors on SY Kutani @farr.a.way Looking forward to another beautiful anchorage! 🌊 #sailinglife #dromabuidhe #boatsquad #sailingadventures #sailinglagertha #westscotland #sailingcouple #westerlyyachts #westerlyoceanlord #segeln https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2024-08-10-beating-upwind-from-plockton-to-mallaig-we-had-an-intense-upwind-sail/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2024-08-10-beating-upwind-from-plockton-to-mallaig-we-had-an-intense-upwind-sail/ Sat, 10 Aug 2024 00:00:00 GMT ⛵ Beating Upwind from Plockton to Mallaig 🌬️ We had an intense upwind sail from Plockton to Mallaig, heavily reefed with gusts up to 33 knots.

We stayed vigilant with our #vespercortex anchor watch system. To our starboard side, we had a massive 64m super yacht, and in front of us, a twin-masted French brigantine tall ship dragged its anchor, drifting close to our port side. Thankfully, the tall ship's crew kept the situation under control. We filled the morning with anchor watch duties, and the afternoon was spent working in our bumpy boat office. Just another day of balancing work and adventure on the sea! 🌊💻 #sailinglife #remotework #digitalnomad #itconsulting #softwaredevelopment #adventureawaits #workfromanywhere #boatlife #sailingcouple #scotland #westscotland #sailinglagertha #westerlyyachts #westerlyoceanlord #segeln #sailingcat #sailingcats https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2024-07-08-beautiful-day-for-our-north-channel-crossing-today-was-a-beautiful-day-for-our-n/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2024-07-08-beautiful-day-for-our-north-channel-crossing-today-was-a-beautiful-day-for-our-n/ Mon, 08 Jul 2024 00:00:00 GMT 🌞 Beautiful Day for Our North Channel Crossing ⛵ Today was a beautiful day for our North Channel crossing from Glenarm to Islay, Port Ellen Bay.

It was mostly motor sailing to stay on schedule, which is crucial in this area due to the strong tides. After 14.5 hours, we were greeted by sunshine in Glenarm and headed to bed early to prepare for tomorrow's North Channel crossing. With easterly winds blowing, we're planning to head to Port Ellen and sample some of their famous whiskey until the stronger winds predicted for Tuesday pass. 🥃🌊 #sailinglife #couplegoals #adventureawaits #liveaboard #sailingcouple #boatlife #catonboard #irishsea #westscotland #sailinglagertha #westerlyyachts #westerlyoceanlord #segeln https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2024-07-06-smooth-sailing-in-the-irish-sea-we-ve-just-completed-our-shakedown-sail-after-a-/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2024-07-06-smooth-sailing-in-the-irish-sea-we-ve-just-completed-our-shakedown-sail-after-a-/ Sat, 06 Jul 2024 00:00:00 GMT 📸 Smooth Sailing in the Irish Sea 🌊 We've just completed our shakedown sail after a massive refit, and soon we'll be cruising the Irish Sea and the stunning west coast of Scotland! 🛠️⛵ The weather was kind to us, we saw dolphins playing in our wake, and everything on board worked perfectly.

"I've kept these stencils hidden away for years, mindful they could be used as evidence in a charge of criminal damage. But that moment seems to have passed, so now I'm exhibiting them in a gallery as works of art. I'm not sure which is the greater crime" - Banksy #banksy #banksyartwork #sailinglife #sailscotland #scotland #glasgow #banksycutandrun #galleryofmodernart #galleryofmodernartglasgow https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2023-07-02-rothesay-to-largs-accompanied-by-liquid-sunshine-sailing-scotland-segeln-schotla/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2023-07-02-rothesay-to-largs-accompanied-by-liquid-sunshine-sailing-scotland-segeln-schotla/ Sun, 02 Jul 2023 00:00:00 GMT Rothesay to Largs accompanied by liquid sunshine ☀️ 🌧️ #sailing #scotland #segeln #schotland #liquidsunshine #largs #firthofclyde https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2023-07-01-from-kames-up-to-loch-riddon-sailing-through-the-burnt-islands-and-dropping-anch/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2023-07-01-from-kames-up-to-loch-riddon-sailing-through-the-burnt-islands-and-dropping-anch/ Sat, 01 Jul 2023 00:00:00 GMT From Kames up to Loch Riddon, sailing through the Burnt Islands and dropping anchor in Rothesay/East Kyle for dinner and a restful sleep.

We did a whopping 12 knots over ground 🤪 Very calm sea but still spectacular eddies and whirlpools to see in the narrows while heading for Portaferry Marina. Bit of of a nerve-recking entry to the berth with the current pushing us all over the place in the wrong direction. The help of some friends ashore was most welcome and made it a very exciting but enjoyable experience even for us newbies. ☺️ #segeln #sailing #sailboat #segelboot #strangfordlough #portaferry #peel #sailingyacht #sailingcouple #isleofman #iom #irishsea #irischesee #lagertha #abenteuerreisen #westerly #oceanlord #westerlyoceanlord #sailinglife #boatinglife #sailingadventure #followus #segelabenteuer #strangford #travel #boatlife https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2022-04-02-no-drone-aboard-but-found-this-loose-rope-to-climb-the-mast-keine-drohne-aber-ha/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2022-04-02-no-drone-aboard-but-found-this-loose-rope-to-climb-the-mast-keine-drohne-aber-ha/ Sat, 02 Apr 2022 00:00:00 GMT No drone aboard, but found this loose rope to climb the mast. 😅 Keine Drohne, aber hab da so ein Seil gefunden um den Mast hoch zuklettern. #mastclimbing #peelhabour #peelmarina #segeln #sailing #sailboat #segelboot #refurbish #refit #sailingyacht #sailingcouple #isleofman #iom #peel #irishsea #irischesee #lagertha #sailboatlining #abenteuerreisen #westerly #oceanlord #westerlyoceanlord #sailinglife #boatinglife #sailingadventure #followus #segelabenteuer #peelmarina https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2021-12-24-in-bequia-sailing-st-vincent-and-the-grenadine-in-2019-merrychristmas/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2021-12-24-in-bequia-sailing-st-vincent-and-the-grenadine-in-2019-merrychristmas/ Fri, 24 Dec 2021 00:00:00 GMT in #Bequia #sailing St. Vincent and the Grenadine in 2019. #merrychristmas #stvincent #stvincentandthegrenadines #segeln #sailboat #segelboot #sailingyacht #sailingcouple #isleofman #iom #lagertha #adventure #abenteuerreisen #westerly #oceanlord #westerlyoceanlord #sailinglife #boatinglife #travel #reisen #sailingadventure #followus #segelabenteuer https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2021-12-20-this-is-what-you-can-miss-out-on-if-you-are-not-visiting-newlyn-newlynharbour-co/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2021-12-20-this-is-what-you-can-miss-out-on-if-you-are-not-visiting-newlyn-newlynharbour-co/ Mon, 20 Dec 2021 00:00:00 GMT this is what you can miss out on, if you are not visiting #newlyn #newlynharbour #cornwall with your #sailboat ⛵️ Loved the fresh fish and #crabbap #seafood lots of 🦀 below the pontoon. just ask to get one 🤩🧑‍🍳 For us it was a good start to go around #landsend 🥰 Before we left, we got some of the very famous Aunty May's Cornish Pasties 🥮 #gourmetsailing #segeln #sailing #sailboat #segelboot #sailingyacht #sailingcouple #isleofman #iom #irishsea #irischesee #lagertha #adventure #abenteuerreisen #westerly #oceanlord #westerlyoceanlord #sailinglife #boatinglife #travel #reisen #sailingadventure #followus #segelabenteuer https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2021-12-17-showing-our-4-years-old-nephew-how-to-use-a-vhf-radio-the-little-fella-is-in-aus/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2021-12-17-showing-our-4-years-old-nephew-how-to-use-a-vhf-radio-the-little-fella-is-in-aus/ Fri, 17 Dec 2021 00:00:00 GMT Showing our 4 years old nephew, how to use a VHF radio.

Through the sandbanks and dangerous overfalls in 23 Kn of winds and about 3.5m waves 🌊 (well planned with the tides, though). A bit a rough ride at the beginning but a nice downwind sailing towards our home berth in Peel, finishing our Isle of Man circumnavigation at about 16:30. https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2021-08-29-on-the-way-to-peel-point-of-ayre-isle-of-man-already-rounded-23kn-winds-and-abou/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2021-08-29-on-the-way-to-peel-point-of-ayre-isle-of-man-already-rounded-23kn-winds-and-abou/ Sun, 29 Aug 2021 00:00:00 GMT On the way to Peel, Point of Ayre Isle of Man 🇮🇲 already rounded. 23Kn winds and about 3.5 m waves 🌊 all calming down now. https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2021-08-28-leg-3-around-the-isle-of-man-after-a-good-breakfast-we-left-port-st-ma/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2021-08-28-leg-3-around-the-isle-of-man-after-a-good-breakfast-we-left-port-st-ma/ Sat, 28 Aug 2021 00:00:00 GMT Leg 3 Around the Isle of Man 🇮🇲 After a good breakfast we left Port St. Mary and headed to Douglas. The tide was in our favour and pushed us around Langness Point with about 3.5 Kn (6.5 through water 10 over ground). Arrived in Douglas bay under sail, it was just enough time to prepare some small nibbles for the Red Arrows aerobatics display. Then the wind was gone and we motored close to Laxey beach up to Maughold Head, where we were able to sail into Ramsey bay to a lovely evening on a buoy close to the Ramsey Pier. https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2021-08-26-leg-2-of-around-isleofman-sailing-a-short-ride-from-porterin-to-portstmary-throu/ https://lagertha.im/en/journal/2021-08-26-leg-2-of-around-isleofman-sailing-a-short-ride-from-porterin-to-portstmary-throu/ Thu, 26 Aug 2021 00:00:00 GMT Leg 2 of around #isleofman #sailing A short ride from #PortErin to #PortStMary through the Calf Sound between Kitterland Island and Thousla Rock.
