Back on Land.. is that the right wave?

    Since my last post many things have happened: many positive, but also some very bad signs that made me really wonder and think twice on the decisions taken…   Dropped once for all my hopes to join Wylde Swan in sailing the Caribbean, I accepted the generous proposal from Luis to stay on board few days more with him and the amazing new friends from Atlanta. Mike and Kristin are expert paraglider up to the point that Mike had his year off to paraglide around the world.  His passion is aviation

The Vagabond of the Oceans and the Dutch Lady

 His name is Marco and he’s sailing solo since 23 years.Saturn is the name of his boat and home. She’s 7.20 meter long and more than 40 years old: a simple glaze at her transmit a feeling of adventure and when I listen to the stories from Marco I feel like being in the movie “The Life of Pi”. But let’s start from where I left you…The stop in Point a Pietre, Guadaloupe, with Wind Whispers gave us the good encounter with a cool French couple friend of Luis. Laurent and Anne Marie are living on

The first night out becomes the rule and soon English

The Atlantic Crew

Land! It’s the morning of 16th December when, after 16 days from the start in Last Palmas, Nina and us are finally entering the port of Antigua! Even if we had far less wind than we hoped, living on board a sailing boat in the middle of the ocean under an unpolluted sky of stars every night has been a unique and unforgettable experience! With everyone hoping to beat last year’s time to reach Antigua, I must admit I’m happy that this long dreamed adventure lasted a couple of days more.   But

The first Leg from Cape d’Agde to Las Palmas – Canary islands

November 29, 2015 by pile Leave a Comment

    After over a week of preparation of the boat and a good dinner finally all the crew together, the captain Edo gives the safety briefing to remind the main safety rules to be followed and the watch shifts night and day for the coming 8-10 days to Canary Islands.   Blown off the fenders and stored them in the sail room, we install the jackstays, lines that run from the fore to the stern of the boat and to which we will clip our lifejacket in case we need to leave the cockpit to reach the fore
