Welcome Aboard Yacht Teleport!

Ahoy there! Chris Bray and Jess Taunton here - two young Australian's, setting sail on the adventure of a lifetime! Having bought a tired old yacht in Canada in 2009, we spent three months in 2010 rebuilding her, have re-named her 'Teleport', fallen in love with her, and are now sailing her home to Australia, as slowly as possible, via all the world's coolest and most remote places - starting with the infamous Northwest Passage in the Arctic above Canada! Considering as Jess has never been sailing before, and Chris is still reading up on junk-rig yachts and hand-starting single-cylinder boat engines, we can promise the next few years will be exciting, scary, heart-breaking and hilarious! Share the adventure with us!

Chreis and Jess on the TODAY SHOW - Click for full-size.

What's the best thing about being back home you ask? Sleeping for more than 3 hours at a time, especially in a bed that can’t sink, doesn't move, and isn't beside a window overlooking incoming icebergs or polar bears. Bliss… Meanwhile, back in Cambridge Bay, Teleport is now in the icy clutches of winter, with the temperature at a chilly -11 deg at the moment, and heading for -20 deg C by Friday. The bay has already frozen over, and Teleport's been dragged a little higher up the hill out of r...READ MORE >>

Teleport safe shore in the cradle for the winter - Click for full-size.

Well who'd have thunk it? Certainly not that dingy salesman back in Vancouver who told us last year (when his laughter subsided) that "What do two little Aussies know about ice?". Here we are, safe and sound, in Cambridge Bay, Victoria Island in the Canadian Arctic – stage 2 of our adventure complete, and none too soon! We sent the last update tucked away in that little anchorage in SE Victoria Island, and the next day we up-anchored early and - using every hour of the rapidly reducing daylig...READ MORE >>

Hey everyone! Jess here – I've amazingly wrestled the laptop off Chris for this update, to let you all know some of the finer details of life aboard Teleport – the real story! Our days now left aboard are numbered, we've just anchored in a little bay on the SE coast of Victoria Island – and we're very proud, relieved and excited to be here, almost at the end of our final leg for this season. We've only a mere 90 miles left along the coast until we reach Cambridge Bay, our final destination where...READ MORE >>
