TheSailingChannel presents "Irish Interlude," a sneak-peek from Lin and Larry Pardey's newest 74-minute documentary, Cruising has NO LIMITS. Available at http://www.thesailingchannel.tv/pardey/chnl Cruising has NO LIMITS DVD (74-minutes) $22.95. Starting at their New Zealand home base, the Pardeys recount some of their most memorable adventures during more than 30 years of cruising. They begin by taking you across the Indian Ocean on board their 29-foot, 9-inch engineless cutter, Taleisin: destination, southern Africa. There, you follow Lin and Larry as they plan and execute a seven month “Champagne Safari on a Beer Budget”. After outfitting a 4X4, you travel into the remote Kalahari, experience life at a sculptors’ commune in northern Zimbabwe, and animal-watch at waterholes far from game reserves. Next you cross the south Atlantic to Brazil's off-shore islands where Lin and Larry experience a unique, eight-month-long encounter with nine Brazilian families who dream of their own blue water adventures. Finally, you sail north to Ireland’s music-filled shores and a summer of history, classic sailing, and friendship. Along the way, you’ll learn some of the truisms that could help you get out adventuring sooner and more enjoyably—whether on the water or on land. You’ll also come to know more about this longtime cruising couple who have been dubbed “the enablers” because of their enthusiasm and willingness to share their secrets for exploring the far corners of the world on a limited budget. “After voyaging tens of thousands of engineless miles under sail, penning more useful marine books than Hiscock and Moitessier combined, and receiving more awards for their pursuits than Tom Hanks has for his, Lin and Larry Pardey are entitled to their well-earned nautical opinions.” --HERB McCORMACK, EDITOR-AT-LARGE, CRUISING WORLD Be sure to subscribe via iTunes to receive free video podcast for cruising sailors from TheSailingChannel.tv.

TheSailingChannel presents a slice of the cruising lifestyle. Have you ever dreamt of "sailing off into the sunset?" Then join Bob and Kaye aboard their 36 foot sloop, "Bettie" as they cruise from Los Angeles to the Bahamas via the Panama Canal on the first leg of their sailing adventure "Bettie" is based on a Cascade 36 hull. It was custom molded for Bob by Yacht Constructors in Portland Oregon back in 1978. Four years and lots and lots of man hours later Bob splashed her. "Bettie" has a raised freeboard that allows for a flush deck design. This is a fast-paced documentary, with gorgeous photography, that will give you a first hand look at the cruising lifestyle. Over 10,000 miles have passed under Bettie’s keel since Bob and Kaye left Los Angeles in 2004. They sailed down the west coast to Panama, through the Canal, east to Cartagena, Columbia then north to Honduras and east across the Caribbean to the Bahamas. That's the focus of this video. Next, Bob and Kaye cruised north along the eastern U.S. seaboard to Boston. The geese were flying south by October beckoning them back to warmer climes, so they headed south to Guatemala and Honduras. After refitting and some time back in L.A., Bob and Kaye sailed back across the Caribbean to the Florida Keys. TheSailingChannel is partnering with Bob and Kaye to produce a continuing series of cruising documentaries as we follow "Bettie" to the far corners of the world. Bob Steadman is a highly acclaimed Hollywood cinematographer. He recently served as technical consultant to the Director of Photography on the feature, Body of Lies directed by Ridley Scott and starring Leonardo de Caprio and Russell Crowe.
