Sailing into foul weather | Ep 333
January 08, 2023 by followtheboat | Language: EN Play Time: 00:19:34 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
All cruisers are obsessed with weather forecasts, and the main phenomena we watch in forensic detail are the “lows” you’ll hear them banging on about in the weather news. The opposite of “highs” (which generally bring settled, clear weather) a low front can cause severe rainfall, often accompanied by thunderstorms, even hurricanes.
If you enjoyed this video, drop us a quick “Thanks a lot” via SUPER THANKS! 🙏

We've been blogging, vlogging and podcasting about living on our boat since 2005. If you love travel, sailing, fishing, diving and photography this might be the channel for you... Each week we post a 15-20 minute snapshot of what we did. It might cover anything from sailing, travelling, meeting people, fishing, cooking, shopping in exotic markets or hanging out on a tropical beach, to boat maintenance (there's a lot of that when you live on a boat) and tackling challenges or bureaucratic conundrums. There's also a fair bit of photography and diving. Even though the world continues to throw spanners at us, we love being perpetual travellers. And we've never regretted making the big leap into this alternative lifestyle for even a nanosecond. If we make you laugh or inspire you, then these videos haven't been a total waste of time. Pop round to the pub and share a drink with us... https://followtheboat.com/pub/ Jamie and Liz xx
