SV New Life: Rendt’s Sailors Journal
Your journal
A Sailors Journal is a classic blog customized for seafarers. Additionally, you can combine your story and uploads with embedded posts from Facebook, Youtube and elsewhere.
To get started, you fill in a form with your details, then, for your page header, answer 3 questions with one sentence:
Who is the crew? Where have you been with your boat? What’s your motto or recurring thought?
And then 4 more questions about you, optionally of course, for which you can give fuller answers, adding photos or videos as illustration, that will show on separate pages.
What’s your story? What are your favorite anchorages and landfalls? Who are your boating friends? And, do you have any tips to share?

Back in the water!
Back in the water after 7 months of what seemed a neverending refit in the boatyard. Where do I start? We completely disassembled New Life and put her back together again, enrolled Nico in a local kindergarten, made friends, lost one, found alternative lodgings on and off the water, saw…
Back to work
As the plane descended, the sun was setting in the Sea of Cortez, silhouetting San Carlos and the harbour of Guaymas where New Life was waiting for us in Gabriel’s boatyard. We had spent Christmas and New Year discovering southern Mexico. Along the way we met some really interesting people,…
