In “Wet, Winchless, and Climate-Conscious”, Annie Means shares the gripping story of a sail cargo voyage aboard the 105-year-old schooner Avontuur. After a double sail tear in the middle of the English Channel, the crew pulled together with no winches, no engine, and plenty of grit to keep going and deliver their carbon-conscious cargo.

From jellyfish-lit nights to salty superstitions, Annie captures the soul of sustainable shipping and the power of community at sea.

A must-read for anyone who believes in wind over diesel and purpose over speed.

It’s Tuesday, which can only mean one thing…
Time to procrastinate whatever you’re supposed to be doing and join us for another round of Tag-a-Cruiser!

This week, meet Jake & Kat! They are currently living the salty dream aboard their Hallberg-Rassy 340, SV Umami. These two met dockside in Turks & Caicos and it’s been smooth sailing (and occasional boat project chaos) ever since!

Kat is a licensed 100-ton captain, yacht boss lady on a 100-foot Hargrave, and a killer drone photographer/artist. When she’s not commanding a charter, she’s hopping back aboard Umami with Jake, who holds it down while running La Bodega Fresh Mart-a prison commissary biz bringing fresh food to families with incarcerated loved ones. (Pretty awesome right?!)

They call Umami their sanctuary: a space for slow living, sunrise hikes, fresh meals (Kat cooks, Jake scrubs), and plenty of boat projects!

You can follow their journey over on Instagram and check out Kat’s creative work at and .

They found a hurricane-flipped catamaran rotting in the mangroves…
And thought, “Yeah, let’s dump our life savings into that.”

Now Raf & Sascha are living in the swamp, swatting mosquitos, rebuilding a wreck—and giving away their monohull like it’s a party favor at the apocalypse!

Why? Because comfort is boring, and they’ve got a thing for chaos!

Welcome to Tag-a-Cruiser Tuesday where we highlight salty legends doing cool stuff while the rest of us are still Googling “how to fix a leaky portlight."

Say ahoy to Kira - the kind of sailor who makes us want to toss our to-do list overboard and chase the horizon!

She caught the sailing bug on a J/88 joyride in San Francisco, and eleven salty years later… she’s racked up six ocean crossings, a 100-Ton Master’s License, and a serious addiction to saying “yes” to adventure!

From teaching in Baja and the Caribbean to racing across the Pacific and coaching an all-female J/105 crew, Kira is the definition of boat boss energy! And yeah - she teaches offshore courses and certifies other instructors! Overachieve much?

Now, go give this salty legend some Lats & Atts love and follow on Instagram for more wind, waves, and badassery!

Got a cruiser we should spotlight next? Tag ’em below!
