Seawind 1600 Catamaran Sailing Performance in Key West, Florida | Harbors Unknown Ep. 9
Harbors Unknown
Harbors Unknown is the story of two dreamers, Kristin and Fabio Potenti, and our French Bulldog Yoda. We sold our home at the beginning of the pandemic (May 27th, 2020) and moved aboard our Seawind 1600 catamaran, SV Wanderlust, in September. We’re documenting boat life as live aboard sailors, sharing our learnings, sailing adventures, travel experiences and delicious meals cooked on board. We're sailing SV Wanderlust to Harbors Unknown, to explore the world’s vast cultures through food, a common thread amongst people everywhere. Connecting with people and places through the local cuisine, and showing how those dishes can be cooked on a boat with limited space and resources. We hope to inspire people and showcase the possibility of living an alternative lifestyle living on a boat that provides freedom and fulfillment.

Seawind 1600 Catamaran Sailing Performance in Key West, Florida | Harbors Unknown Ep. 9
This week we head out to the waters by Key West for the #SeawindCatamarans Rally “friendly” race day. We had 10 people on board. A mix from Seawind, #SailAwayCatamarans and boat industry professionals from Annapolis. We were all excited to see how the #Seawind1600 performed against the 1160, 1190 and 1260. If you’d like to see more specific performance data on the 1600 watch this video next: https://youtu.be/FH-5X-eXv4Y. Or watch this playlist https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLCwNmkqXr8562e564Xf2Ih6i-VSvG9POu for performance in strong winds with gusts to 28 knots and lighter wind at about 12 knots.
Near what we thought was the end of the race we went wing on wing and gained a lot of speed. However, we realized that wasn’t the end and we had to turn downwind around the marker longer than necessary to jibe. It took a while to retrieve the screecher and resume course towards the final marker. We lost a bit of ground here.
We crossed the finish line in third place and knew the error that lost us the race was not knowing the course, lol. I suppose we’ll pay better attention next time. What’s more important is everyone had a great time! If you like this video give it a thumbs up, subscribe and we’ll see you next week! Please leave any questions or feedback in the comments below. 🙂
If you’re new here, we are Kristin + Fabio Potenti and we moved aboard our Seawind 1600 catamaran Wanderlust with our French Bulldog Yoda on Labor Day. We didn’t move far, really, we moved onto our boat across the canal from the home we sold at the end of May, mid-Pandemic.
We’re a couple of dreamers, with a longing to explore the world’s natural wonders, food and cultures. To live by the wind, current and the sun. We’re looking for adventure and freedom in Harbors Unknown, planning to eventually sail around the world, but for now, we’re starting in our own backyard.

200 Years of History in Hue
Two hundred years isn’t very old. Especially if you’re Italian. But Hue packed emperors, colonialism, occupation, revolution and war into those two centuries. It’s all about the mileage, not the age .
I Don’t Like the Beach. So I Went to Con Market.
Da Nang is famous for its beaches. I had enough of them. So I went to Con Market instead. Pork, fermented food, coagulated blood, endless stalls, and the kind of organized chaos I was hoping to find in Vietnam.
Alone on a Vietnamese Sleeper Train
I took the train from Saigon to Da Nang. I took the slipper train instead of flying because I was  hoping to talk to some of the locals, it turned out that I was the only one in the compartment.
