Five Things We Do on Sailing Passage to Galapagos EP 123 #sailing #adventure #galapagos #travel
UPDATED: In this episode of Sailing AWEN, we share an inside look at the five things we do while sailing on passage to Galapagos Islands. We desperately search for wind as we are afraid we will run out of fuel. Also, you will meet our new crew and also some mysterious guests.
This is an UPDATED version, the original version had some audio gremlins that have since been fixed, sorry about that!
We’re sailing full-time aboard AWEN, our Outremer 52 performance catamaran, continuing our bluewater sailing journey. From offshore passages and ocean sailing to the quieter, human moments that make life afloat so meaningful, we share the real highs, challenges, and surprises of liveaboard catamaran life.
⛵ IN THIS EPISODE
• Will we run out of fuel?
• Our new A5 asymmetrical spinnaker
• We find stowaways
• Five things we do on passage
• Enjoying our sail
If you’re dreaming about sailing around the world, living aboard a catamaran, planning an ocean crossing, or transitioning to a simpler life of travel and adventure, we hope this episode resonates with you.
