World-renowned cruising couple Lin and Larry Pardey, who have sailed over 185,000 miles, take viewers on their exciting ocean escapades to Southern Africa, Brazil and Ireland. The film follows the intrepid couple on a voyage of a lifetime that will whet anyone’s appetite for the life-enriching possibilities offered by cruising. From campfire evenings with Kalahari Bushmen and days of animal-watching at waterholes far from game reserves in southern Africa to island cruising south of Rio, and finally north to Ireland’s shores, the Pardeys enjoy a summer of history, classic sailing, Irish music, and new friendships. Shot on board their 29-foot, 9-inch, engineless wooden cutter Taleisin, as well as on location at their home base in New Zealand and in three other continents, the episode breaks down the basics for nautical novices with practical lessons on how to go beyond the shores of the world’s oceans and explore local cultures. Tory Salvia, President of The Sailing Channel, hosts.

Wonderful! I’ve had the pleasure of meeting them at a boat show in Chicago, and have followed their adventures for years. This footage was moving and fun. Thanks for bring the Pardey’s to your new channel.

lin and larry the way people with live in the future when only the sea is the best yet. god bless what they have given us all and a little of them as well. I can safely say they are the michael jackson of sailing.
Maybe, the Obama’s of the sea. The brains and mind of time on the floating waves in cheeky, the stupid named little boat that they will be saved in some day. Good luck and love mickey. 310 514-0010 L.A. Ca. p.o. box 8903 anaheim, ca. send me a card kids.

Thank you so much for the doc on the Pardeys. I look forward to all your presentations in the future. I just hope they are aired on PBS in southwest Florida WGCU.

The Pardeys have been our inspiration for 25 years. What a fantastic video. Their lives are an amazing story. Thank you!

This is what it’s all about! What a change from “Bubble Gum” television. Just off to my boat to bring the departure date even closer…..

Great video. The Pardeys are a truely inspirational couple who gave us the sailing bug many years ago.

Ed Silvers -- July 7th, 2009 at 8:29 am

Lin and Larry were my new friends while building their current cutter.
They inspired me to be brave enough to try the ‘Cruising Life”
and take my sloop to the Caribbean. God bless them for that!!!

Elaine Card -- July 7th, 2009 at 1:32 pm

Wonderful video. The freedom of sailing and the people you meet,what could be better.

Magic Sailor -- July 7th, 2009 at 11:05 pm

Hi.
Can anyone give me a hint on how to watch this on a slow connection. On YouTube I can pause the video and watch it without glitches after it’s fully loaded, but that doesn’t work here.
