Myself (Lloyd) and Ana have taken the plunge and bought a boat in Greece,

Beautiful weekend in Killarney 💚

It's been a great and busy summer but we needed just some time for us and Killarney National Park was the best place for it.
The morning started raining, so poor us, we had to go for a second breakfast, coffee, scones, French toast... it's a process, learning to adapt to the new speed with a baby, but we are making the best of it!!

When the rain stopped we enjoyed the views and beautiful walks!!

We went cruising along the Shannon... and she wouldn't let go the wheel!! She loved it!!!O this little captain is going ...

We went cruising along the Shannon... and she wouldn't let go the wheel!! She loved it!!!

O this little captain is going to be dangerous... or so we hope!!! 💜

No Ambrym this summer but plenty of adventures, and many many first times.
We rented a cruiser with Ana's family and spent some days on the water. We loved it and we loved showing them a different part of Ireland and also some boat life!!!

M's first camping trip!

The weather wasn't the best and we had to cut it short, but she enjoyed it and we did too, she's a natural, at only 4 months old!
We even tried the canoe! (Spoiler, she didn't like the life jacket)

Of course the fantastic company helped, we are so happy to keep working on traditions, even when they have to be adapted to the new times!!

We missed some usual faces this year but we were happy for some new ones...!

So lucky to live so close to this magical place 💚

I can't believe it's already 3 months of you.

How did we exist before your giggles, your exploring eyes, your daily changes and discoveries?

How was life before constant feeding, short night sleeps, poo explosions? There was a time when errands weren't welcome by a big smile to melt for... I think. I can't remember.

So many lives inside one... but we are really loving this one.

As you might know, while we are based in Ireland, rather than onboard our beloved Ambrym, we are never far from the water. Lloyd's job has always been around boats, and for quite some time now, he has been focused on teaching and training.
So we present you his new company SeaSpark ()

> Training courses for boat owners and users (Basic Marine Diesel Engine Course, Basic Outboard Course, Basic Marine Electrics Course...). Specifically designed to help boat users understand their system, perform basic maintenance and be more self-sufficient on board.
> Own-boat tuition. Getting a new boat can be overwhelming, and it's not always easy to understand all the installed systems (engine, electrics, batteries, solar, instruments...)
> Diagnosis and repair of electrics and engines
> Consultant. As a specialist in electrical propulsion system, Lloyd can help you choosing the best options for your boat.

The courses can be booked individually, but also organised in sailing clubs, marinas, training schools, etc.

Friends in Ireland and UK, please share in your sailing community, or contact and suggest if you would like to see these courses in your local club!!!

Our first hike together!

We have been out for short walks at every chance the weather has given us, but yesterday we went for our first proper hike and the 4 of us enjoyed every minute of it!

Spring is here and you can smell, hear and see it at every corner, I love that feeling!

(Are my legs and butt now very sore? Maybe...)

⭐️MARA⭐️

We are getting a lot of questions (and compliments) about the name Mara.

We wanted a name easy to say and write in both our languages, and also one that would make her life easy in all the future adventures to come.

Mara is getting popular in Spain, still not being everywhere, without any particular meaning there.

We loved the sound of it, that it's short, simple, easy...

and that it means Sea in Irish.
