We Got Off To A Bumpy Start… (MJ Sailing – EP 84)

Finally tearing ourselves away from Faial, it was time to hit open waters again. Getting to them was not very easy though. After not being able to shove off the dock due to a strong current pushing us in, the marina had to bring out their tender to pull us off. But from there we had an amazing m...

AZORES: Pico – The Island No One Ever Sails To (MJ Sailing – EP 82)

AZORES: We LOVE This Harbor – We HATE Rafting Up (MJ Sailing – EP 81)

There are so many things to love about Horta. Except when two boats crush you against a cement wall. As we make landfall in in Faial, we can still not get over the beauty and charm of this island. Rugged cliffs sitting next to quaint European villages. There's a a lot to get re-aquainted w...
