This is it: the life and times of the yacht, Henrietta. It’s the tale of our travels from mid-2015 to date (currently early 2024).

We, that’s Henrietta, and I, Michael, have been together all that time except for a few months of 21/‘22. We’ve pottered around the English Channel, cruised around an Atlantic Circuit (2015-2016); meandered our way around the world (2016-2021); and enjoyed a Canary Island/Azores Circuit (2022-2023); and crossed the Atlantic again (about 70,000 miles in total so far).

Approximate routes 2015 to 2022

New posts are added about every two months, but don’t be surprised if you don’t see anything new for a while. I might be busy or have little to say, feel uninspired or just be lazy.

A problem with firm plans and inherent indecisiveness mean we never know where we might go next.

That, I feel, is one of the many joys of the nomadic sailing life. You can end up anywhere.
