New Kids On The Dock

Hello dear friends! Josh here, not sure what else to say for this one. We are still riding a rollercoaster of emotions, we have dived straight into this massive project as we need to get her floating ASAP. More to come but for now join us for the moment our lives changed forever 🩵🩵🩵

Our lives just took an unexpected turn! With less than 24 hours notice, we bought an abandoned catamaran at auction...because why not completely change the c...

Hey guys! Josh here, this episode really helps us share the polarity of life at sea. Golden sunshine and blue water one afternoon, white knuckles and gale wind gusts the next morning. We get flogged this passage, jump on to our YT to watch how Phoebe, Innerbloom and I all rise to the challenge to get 20 miles against the wind back to safety 🌀

We’re back for our second episode of the season and the ocean wasted no time testing us 🥴 This passage from Tangalooma to (intended) Double Island was one o...

Dipping our toes back into a bit of sailing! Our first passage of our second season has come early 🤩 let’s take a break from the boat work together, you know we need it. Jump on board Innerbloom with Phoebe, Sonya and I for a passage up the coast ❤️❤️

We're hitting pause on boat work and getting back to what we actually signed up for - sailing!We're kicking off our first season on the Tube a little early s...

Boat upgrades that make you go yahoooooooo!
Josh here, it’s been a minute since we saw you last and that’s because I tried my hand at editing this episode. It only took 300 hours (not sure how Phoebe does it in 40) but I’m proud of it and very excited to share this bit of work with you. So much goes into building new systems on board it was awesome to learn from a professional rigger for this one and be able to capture it and share it with you. If you dig it drop us some love in the comments section 💙
Love from Innerbloom

A big round of applause for Josh and his debut behind the editing desk! 👏✨ He was eager to lend his hand to this episode - fondly revisiting his day with Da...

Hey guys Josh here! Our latest episode is live, we have been given a pre-loved second hand roller furler for Innerbloom! This is huge for us and we are so excited to go cruising with this system on our boat as it means no more getting wet on the fore deck for head sail changes. First things first we need to give the unit it a bit of love, this week we are learning all about furlers as we recondition the bearings in the top swivel of this old unit. Cheers!

In this week’s episode, we’re getting ready to install a second-hand Profurl C420! But before we can fit the unit on Innerbloom, we need to service and repla...

Any time I’m gazing into the distance in a photo best bet I’m looking at either Phoebe or Innerbloom. In this instance I’ve got my eye on both 😍

G’day crew! We are back with our final episode from this haul out. It’s been a minute since our last catch up as we have been having some family time but we are stoked to get this video out to the world and Innerbloom back in the water. We have a lot of exicting upgrades coming up in the next few episodes that we are frothing to share with you you stand by for that but until then enjoy this ep! ❤️

We're truly thrilled to be wrapping up this challenging chapter - our second haul out of our steel Adams 35 during peak wet season! Amidst the spontaneous sh...

Our thoughts are with the people in parts of Australia who are currently experiencing flooding. Cruising fulltime - weather is our only boss. We live with our schedule dictated by the winds, waves and tide. This East Coast Low has gotten our attention 👀🌧💨🌊 What’s the gnarliest system you can remember going through?

Hello my friends! Josh here - our latest episode from the slip way is out. This was a challenging time having to make big calls with weather and time constraints. Steel boats have their own set of issues which we learn more about as we are facing a big one that we need to figure out! Thanks for hanging out, it’s always a pleasure to share our journey with guys 😁

Picking up on day two of our haul out, we uncover the truths below our waterline. For the second year in a row, the blistering on our hull demands our attent...

Hey guys! Josh here - Two seasons sailing on the inside of the Great Barrier Reef left us feeling pretty starved of waves. Mostly I missed the meaningless play of surfing, the daily cleanse sitting in the ocean offered. It was the first form of meditation I ever experienced and I swear I’m not the only one that has been healed from it?? The next two seasons ahead are going to have many more opportunities for surf.
Just where is the question…

Hey crew! Josh here - our latest episode finds us visiting the boat yard on Innerbloom for our second haul out and *sigh*, the conditions are less than ideal. Sailing is all about compromise, apparently even when you’re not in water! We make do on our first day, but how far will our good fortune take us? And all that steel work we did last year, well how’s it fairing now? Tune in to hang out and jump into some jobs with us on the hard.
Big love! Josh

It's an unfortunate affair hauling out a steel boat in the middle of the wettest season of Northern NSW! But with only a few days to treat rust, antifoul and...

Well G‘day there! Josh here - we may be home and hosed from our first season but that’s doesn’t mean the work (or the videos) are stopping. We have so much to share with you! Haul out, boat jobs, hopes and dreams + vital upgrades to Innerbloom. Join us in a very sophisticated but scarcely serious sit down chat as we unwrap and dive into what’s coming up. As always, stoked to share this with you 😁

We're pretty stoked/relieved/excited to have not only made it back after our first year as novice sailors but to also be eager for many more years of it to c...
