Preparing for the Worst and Hoping for the best | Cyclone Jasper | Sailing with the James's (Ep. 65)

Weather reports have been showing a low out in the Coral Sea and it has been officially named as “Cyclone Jasper”. We are in Townsville, just south of where the tropical cyclone is predicted to hit and we are preparing and getting ready for the cyclone. Join us as we get Emma prepared and explain what we are doing and why.

We are the James Family, we purchased an unfinished aluminium catamaran and are fixing her up as we sail around the world. Come onboard our boat and join this sailing family aboard on our floating home!
