About Me

uMoya (means wind in Xhosa) is a beautiful old Beneteau 456, and her crew are the very talented, experienced and good looking skipper, Rijk :), myself, Jen, the very inexperienced, never really sailed first mate, and my charming and utterly rapscallion brother, James (also totally unexperienced, and I guess, as far as pecking order goes, the skivvy!).

Hi Ho, Hi Ho, its off to sea we go!!!

Wow guys. It really looks epic; inspiring stuff. Everyone talks about sailing the world, but you never really meet anyone who does.


Hope you’re loving each day.

Hey Rijk and Umoya Crew

Congrats on the engagement.

I am following your trip with huge amounts of envy.

I wish it was something my wife and I were able to undertake but it will have to wait till retirement.

I look forward to the next installment on your blog.

Fair winds and good sailing.
