Captain Nervous in the Spanish fog. #20
September 04, 2018 by Ryan & Sophie Sailing | Language: EN Play Time: 00:18:35 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
The Northwestern coast of Spain is prone to fog and this week, we head right into it on our way from La Coruña to Islas Cíes.
After a couple of weeks spent away from the oat on a business trip, Ryan is back at the boat and we can finally continue our journey towards the Med.
We day hop in the Spanish Rias and anchor at Ria de Camariñas and Ria de Muros. On both days, the fog catches us by surprise, and we end up spending our passage motoring, spotting for the numerous crab pots and fishing boats that famously navigate the waters of Galicia.
On the first day, the fog had us nervous, but the visibility was still OK. On the second day though, we could only see a couple of boat length in front of us, and the captain was definitely nervous.
The type of fog we encountered and that is common in this area of Spain was called “advection fog”. At the end of the video, Ryan explains what creates it, how it is possible to deal with it and a few lessons learned from our own experience.

Captain Nervous in the Spanish fog. #20 Locations
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!
