Rushing all the time might seem like we're getting a lot done, but it can actually make us feel stressed and less effective. This constant stress is bad for our bodies and minds.
When we slow down, our bodies and minds can rest. This lowers stress and makes us healthier. Plus, when we're not rushing, we can focus better, which helps us get more done and do a better job.
Rushing often leads to bad decisions. Taking our time helps us think clearly and make smarter choices. Slowing down also helps us connect better with people because we're more present when we're with them.
It gives us time to think about ourselves and notice the good things around us, making us feel grateful. Quiet moments can even help us come up with new ideas.
Basically, finding a calmer way to live helps us feel better, be more thoughtful, and enjoy life more along the way, not just when we reach our goals.

Trainers and student's were in for a real treat on Thursday, when no sooner had they launched their vessel from Gordon's Bay Harbour, they were surrounded by a pod of dolphins. Many of them were swimming alongside the bow and side of the boat!

Even animals need hugs!
A man was swimming in shallow waters in Weymouth England when out of the blue a seal swam up to him and wrapped his flippers around his neck. The seal gave him a big hug then swam away.
Seals with their affectionate nature, and playful spirit have captivated the hearts of many.
Their playful antics, from playfully nudging divers to carefully chasing each other through the waves, bring a sense of joy and water to the underwater world.

Nasionale See En Sand Instituut in Hermanus, offer a life saving course and it's for tough individuals because life saving is a very responsible job! You might even need to navigate turbulent conditions and the fury of the sea to save somebody.
Thank you to See En Sand for this imperative course and keeping our swimmers safe!
Have a look at their page @seeensand

Skipper had a one on one sailing lesson customer yesterday, and just look at this huge school of dolphins.
Incredible how some of them swim so close to the vessel!๐ฌ๐ฌ๐ฌ

Adorable Penguin Rescue!

Octopuses are soft bodied and known for their intelligence and camouflage skills, as well as being able to squeeze into tight spaces. Some species have taken their skills to the next level by burrowing into the sea bed. This behaviour is particularly well documented in the southern sand octopus, (Octopus Kaurna) native to Australian waters.
Octopusare like little ocean architects employing everything from siphon techniques - blowing water into the sand, to digging to create tunnels, ventilation shafts that provide oxygen, and stabilising their burrows with a lining of their own mucus to aid ambush hunting, as well as avoiding predators.
For a fascinating and insightful documentary be sure to watch *My Octopus Teacher* where Film Director Craig Foster follows and documents a 12 month long story about a female octopus living in a kelp forest near Simons Town, Cape Town, South Africa . Foster not only discovers how fragile life is, but also humanity's connection with nature. Prepare to be amazed!

If only humans could be this unreserved.

Opening Cruise - 11th of January 2025
What a vibe it was today!
It was an awesome cruise, with no less than 25 beautiful yachts out as a fleet.
Weather was cool and becalmed in the morning, and picked up through the afternoon and steadily slowed to a halt this evening.
There was a constant 10 to 15 knots in the morning building towards a 20 knots and presently not a breath of wind.
If you see this, it's not to late to join the festivities with revellers at the well stocked bar ๐
This is our best kept secret and our SPECIAL gem Gordon's Bay.
Gordon's Bay, nestled on the picturesque False Bay coastline, is celebrated for its awe-inspiring sunsets. This enchanting coastal town boasts a unique geographical advantage, facing west, allowing for a direct and unobstructed view of the sun dipping below the horizon.
The region's typically clear skies, particularly during the summer months, further enhance the sunset spectacle. The vibrant hues of the setting sun are dramatically reflected in the calm waters of False Bay, creating a mesmerizing mirror effect.
The majestic Hottentots Holland Mountains, forming a dramatic backdrop, add another layer of visual drama to the scene.
Moreover, the interplay of atmospheric conditions, such as humidity and dust particles, contributes to the diverse and ever-changing palette of colors that paint the sky during these magical moments.
This confluence of factors results in sunsets that are not merely beautiful but truly unforgettable, captivating visitors and locals alike.โค

Youth Sailing Camp - 6th,7th, 8th and 9th December 2024.
Eleven youngsters had a blast last weekend, in the big beautiful outdoors learning new skills, making new friends, enjoying the most delicious home cooked food and quality leisure time away from phones and computers enjoying the good life!
Day 1 - We kicked off our first youth sailing camp of the summer holidays at Theewater Sports Club today. After a bit of theory we rigged up a boat for tacking dry drills. After lunch the wind had picked up so we remained ashore learning knots and building trash boats before a swim. Late afternoon Nadia and Kelly helped the youngsters to make keyrings.
Day 2 -An awesome day out on the water and our young sailors did really well in a variety of conditions. Today we focused on sailing on a reach and tacking around a mark, bearing up and away from the wind and ended the day with a couple of races around the keelboats.
On day 3 of our youth sailing camp at Theewater Sports Club we had light winds for most of the day. In the morning we did our trash boat race before the Academy pentathlon, swimming, running, knots, paddling and sailing. After lunch we went for a destination sail and enjoyed watermelon on the beach before sailing back home.
The weather on the last day of our youth sailing camp at Theewater Sports Club was ideal for sailing. Our young sailors practiced man overboard drills, rudderless sailing and rounding racing marks before a free sail around the keelboats to conclude another successful youth sailing camp.
NEXT YOUTH CAMP: December 19th, 20th, 21st and 22nd December and after that, 3rd to the 6th of January 2025.
