Smashed in 60 knots & 6m seas sailing to Australia - Part 2

This is Part 2 of 2 videos of our ocean passage from Vanuatu to Australia. We ran from a category 5 cyclone in Vanuatu, had beautiful conditions for most of the way, then sailed straight into a massive East Coast Low Pressure System as we approached the Australian Coast. On top of all this, we both became quite sick with Covid during the passage. Two people handling an Amel Super Maramu yacht in pretty terrible conditions.

Having a boat that provides many options to sail in a balanced state and being able to keep moving in a safe and manageable way in 50-60 knots and 6m+ seas is a true testament to the design and build of your vessel however what is truly impressive is the humility and seamanship you both displayed under very difficult circumstances. May you’re joys be as deep as the ocean and your sorrows as light as the foam.

Great heavy weather sailing video! Thanks for sharing. Shows that times for well built blue water yachts aren’t over.

Havin "been there, done that" over 30 odd years, this is the best representation of a storn from a sailboat I have seen. Well done to you both on your courage, composure and sound boat handling.

I'm an ex-yachtie - sailed up from NZ, through the Coral Sea, Phillipines, Borneo, and the South China Sea with a final 65 voyage across the Pacific to Victoria Canada. I was a few sailing vlogs and this was by far the best footage of the 40-50knot conditions. The swell builds and it's as if the wind blows the top off the swells off somehow. Many thanks for the videography

Excellent video-- great footage. I really like the protection you have in your cockpit! The boat really stood up to those conditions amazingly well. Phil that is not Phil!

Greetings from the Uk, extraordinary tale, thank goodness your faithful boat held together. Your calmness under extreme circumstances was really impressive. When u add Covid it’s doubly so. Amazing, well done guys what a story thanks for recording it when I am sure it was the last thing you wanted to do!

great experience! I can't imagine single handing that. 45 minutes in 50 knots in rough conditions is enough to wear me out completely on my 54' boat!

Your equanimity in this dastardly sea, wind and sickness was admirable. Your perseverance and decision making was exemplary. This is what a sailing video should be like … not the pap that 98% of sailing videographers squeegee out of their sea trials.

A seriously calm boat you have.. it never looked close to being in a struggle.. a calm boat brings peace to those aboard. Awesome vid.. thankyou both kindly for sharing.

Dramatic and well detailed account. The enclosed cockpit and the fractional sail plan are great features on Jaygo. With that kind of sustained tension, something could pop at any moment and the thought of that... So important to keep a steady tempo. Also, I've hear it said before--make a solid plan because it will be very challenging to change setup mid-storm. The calm of the day after in the lee of the land--what a beautiful sight. Ok, will recommend previous video to my wife. This one... Maybe I just say they haven't posted that yet. Learned a lot from this video about strategy, planning, focus, minimizing stress on rig and minds. Thank you for posting.

We met briefly at Southport whilst we were surveying Jomaro! Been following your vid’s for a long time. You’ve managed to capture the sea state on camera better than any other video I’ve seen! Might run into you in the tropics next year!
