It was a week before the start date of the race event when news of the unfolding civil war in New Caledonia aired. A state of emergency was issued, which left the race committee no choice but to cancel. While the tensions built on the tropical island, it felt almost wrong that from just across the way in Australia, we could start throwing around other options for an alternative training sail…which led us to this mountainous spec in the middle of the ocean known as Lord Howe Island.

Enjoying the episodes? Becoming a Patron enables us to ensure the continuity of Slim & Soph - Sailing Nakama. A little goes a long way to keep this production alive. With very little free time between uni and the boat, Patreon enables us to focus on creating and posting videos rather than pouring beers at our local. Thank you for your generosity / sailingnakama
