Can you imagine sitting in a peaceful bay, settling down to watch a beautiful sunset and these feckers on Motor Vessel “Sand & Sea” arrive and decide it would be lovely to blast out and share their musical 💩 tunes as loud as a jet en

Sunrise from @sailingmacmac on route to Mallorca following an overnight moonlight sail

On route to Mallorca - Plenty of light tonight for @sailingmacmac

Said goodbye to two lovely Aussies, Craig and Jo of @sunday_sailing today as we slipped our mooring in Port Ginesta - on route to somewhere in Ibiza.
Fair winds to them and hoping our paths will cross again soon - it’s been a pleasure 😃

Installed the new AED beside the EPIRB
Let’s hope neither are ever required - but if they are - I’ll be looking at them - rather than for them!

Chuck me up a screwdriver!

Always good to have the safety team keeping an eye on me. Was concerned they might not lower me down again!

Had to change a masthead bulb at lunchtime on @sailingmacmac
Takes a little bit more effort than swapping the one in the hall on dry land!
Thanks to @bryce.likes.rice for the lift
Great view all the same.

Thanks for all the birthday wishes folks - very much appreciated. Had a great day on @sailingmacmac continuing prep for the new seasons adventures 😃

Not a bad St. Patrick’s day at all on @sailingmacmac - first barefoot day of 2024 - 19 degrees

Proud as punch today beside son @finley.__
Graduation ceremony in Liverpool with family and friends cheering on - awesome craic

An exhausted Zacc and I embrace as he exits the stage following @annasnumber performance at the Ulster Hall
We just about managed not to burst into tears this time.
One years worth of pent up tension released.
What a dedicated team surround @annasnu

Sooooo……… these two just got engaged in Copenhagen!
The @sailingmacmac family couldn’t be any more delighted 🥰
I now gain a daughter who I didn’t have to worry about between the ages of 13 and 18 😃 result 😂
Congrat

See you tomorrow

Anchored on sand, in 8 metres of crystal clear water.
Beautiful evening.

Sous chef Dennis is keeping an eye on my style whilst I throw together a Carbonara.
Assuming his favourite viewing position from the cockpit window into the galley.
He is particularly fond of the Parmesan cheese rind bits that I feed up to him.
