Across the Atlantic SOLO on my Beneteau Oceanis 40 - [2200nm from Cape Verde to Antigua] #115
April 25, 2022 by Ryan & Sophie Sailing | Language: EN Play Time: 00:33:03 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
When I arrived in Cape Verde after a hectic passage from Lanzarote, I was feeling so emotionally drained and fatigued that I wasn’t sure if I would continue my journey across the Atlantic solo, or in fact, at all.
I had Sophie help me put together several options to either stop in Cape Verde and have the boat delivered by Professional Yacht deliveries, or have a couple friends fly down and join me on my leg to the Caribbean.
But after spending some incredible times around the island, I felt like a new man and realized that my initial motivation for undertaking this passage hadn’t changed and that I would be hugely disappointed if I did not finish what I had started.
And so here I am today, about to finish what I started, and while I hope this time passage will be smoother, I am confident in my ability to meet whatever challenge I am faced with…

Ryan & Sophie Sailing
Ever wondered what life looks like on the other side of quitting your job to sail around the World? We did too. And then, we took the plunge. Welcome to our channel, where we tell the stories of our sailing voyage, from zero experience to full-time cruising! We are Ryan and Sophie, an American guy and a French girl who met in Sweden, on a cold night of March 2015. Shortly thereafter, we decided to leave our corporate jobs to live a big sailing adventure around the World together. We had no experience of sailing at all before we started, and had honestly no idea what we were getting ourselves into. Turns out, with a bit of willpower and work, anything goes. The dream came true on June 5th of 2018, when we finally got to set sail from our home port in Stockholm. Don't forget to subscribe (it helps us a lot ;)) and check out our website at www.ryanandsophie.com for more sailing-related photos and articles!
