Cruising Has No Limits Preview

Skimming before caressing trade winds, savoring tropical landfalls, evading stormy seas—such is the image of the cruising life under sail. It is all this, but Lin and Larry's latest documentary: Cruising Has No Limits shows you how it can be so much more. Join Lin and Larry at their New Zealand home base as they recount some of their most memorable adventures during more than 30 years of cruising.

YOUTUBE RENTALS
Cruising Has No Limits is now available as a YouTube Rental for just $2.99 (US Only).
Rent our sailing documentaries at TheSailingChannel YouTube Documentary Playlist.
Sail with them across the Indian Ocean on board 29-foot, 9-inch Taleisin. Learn how they planned and executed a seven month "Champagne Safari on a Beer Budget," outfitting a 4X4 to reach remote corners of southern Africa. Share their memories of campfire evenings with Kalahari Bushmen, life in a sculptors' commune in Zimbabwe's northern reaches, and days of animal-watching at waterholes far from game reserves. Then voyage onward with them to Brazil, and see how two 14-year-old passengers led them into a unique, eight-month-long island encounter with nine Brazilian families who dreamed of their own off shore adventures. Finally, sail north through the Atlantic 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."

Bears, eagles, whales, seals, salmon, and icebergs. There is still a place in America where nature rules. Where glaciers gleam like jewels set into majestic mountains. Where ice-fed waterfalls plummet from tidewater glaciers. Where the spirits of ancient ancestors linger in the mist. Where their signs can be seen on rock cliffs near the bones of their great wooden lodges, their weather-worn totems still standing guard in virgin forests. The inside passage, from Seattle, Washington up the coast of Canada, to Juneau, Alaska is a waterway window into the past with majestic scenery and hidden anchorages where time stands still.

A film by Paul Burgess

In this 2.5 hour cruising guide series, Sail with Paul and Leslie Burgess aboard Suliere, their 50 foot ocean-going catamaran as they voyage to Cuba's Hemingway Marina, tour old Havana and the Cuban countryside, then sail on to the remote Ragged Islands of the Bahamas.
Part 1 provides comprehensive information about entering Cuban waters, navigating the tricky entrance to Havana's Hemingway Marina, and yacht provisioning and maintenance facilities within the marina complex. From the marina, travel with Paul and Leslie as they tour old Havana. Learn about shopping in local markets, finding good restaurants, and living cheaply on the CUC, Cuba'a local currency.
In Part 2, go inside Cuba with Paul and Leslie as they drive a rental car deep into the interior, staying with local Cuban families in particulares, the Cuban version of a bed & breakfast. Tour the countryside by horseback, visiting farms and a local cigar factory. Then it's on to Trinidad, the Salsa music capital of Cuba. Traveling back along the coast, learn that most harbors are closed to foreign sailors. Finally, explore the charming town of Sancti Spiritus before returning to Hemingway Marina.
In Part 3, sail with Paul and Leslie aboard Suliere from Havana, south along the Cuban coast, then offshore to the Bahama's sparsely populated Ragged Islands in search of paradise.
FAMILY EDITION
Included is a 2-hour, two-part version of Paul and Leslie's visit to Cuba and the Ragged Islands of the Bahamas for non-sailors, which excludes some 40 minutes of detailed sailing and navigation information.
