September 21, 2022 by DRIFTING sailing adventures | Language: EN Play Time: 00:18:06 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
SAILING across the MOZAMBIQUE CHANNEL! (Part 1) We set sail for an atoll in the middle of the Mozambique channel…. We’re going to BASSAS DA INDIA!!
Robin catches a big Yellowfin Tuna and makes biltong!
Planning this passage was a tricky one but we have perfect conditions and after 3 days of sailing, we see some wave action on the reef….
Thanks for watching!
Much love,
Captain Robin, Charlotte, sailor girl Moya and Midnight, our sailing cat!
