Big Seas & Gale Winds to Colombia - Adventure 08 (Sailing Around the World)

December 28, 2016 Sailing YouTubers

We're here in Cartagena now and loving it. It has everything you could ever want from an old world city. A great atmosphere and cheap food.

We set sail from Puerto Rico expecting a "sporty" sail. What started as a mundane sail ended with winds to 40 knots, a fresh gale, and steep waves. The coast of Colombia is renowned for it's sea conditions. Some say it's the entire Atlantic piling up in this corner of the Caribbean. Others say it's the current. On the fifth day we took down all of our sails in order to slow down our surfs down these waves. This sail will go down as one of our most memorable rides.
