So cool to meet Barton Waring today at Sullivan Bay, BC. Barton was Novara’s second custodian. How did he feel being back on board? “It is a lovely boat. It brings back lots of good memories.” says Barton. 😊❤️

There’s nothing quite like being out on the ocean. Working as a team. Having to be self reliant.

There is lots of important work being done on physical sciences relating to climate change. For us on Novara our focus is on the coastal communities that bear the brunt of climate compounded impacts. As the wise Māori proverb goes “He aha nga mea nui? He tangata, he tangata, he tangata”. What is the most important thing? It is people, it is people, it is people. 🌊

Novara’s adventures take more than just raising sails and setting off into the sunset. Weeks and sometimes months of preparation is needed. At least Novara’s saloon has plenty of room for us to spread out the charts! Photo: Ronan Hashimoto Andrew

We love to raise the sails on Novara and switch off the engine. Our aerorigs make sailing Novara easy even if we have to put up with a bit of temporary chaos as we get the sails up. Thanks to Ronan Hashimoto Andrew for this great shot of Novara’s cockpit in mid action.

This is why we do this. Not because we are escaping, but because we are finding out way home.
