SDA63 What's Wrong with our New Main Sail?
November 23, 2022 by Sailing Dark Angel | Language: EN Play Time: 00:26:43 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
We cruise up the Florida coast with a stop at Marineland Marina for dinner with friends, and to close the loop on our starting point as cruisers. Then we grab a mooring ball in St Augustine to finally install our long awaited Precision Sails main sail. With superbroker Ian helping us we install the sail, and with Ian and Marissa’s help, we pack it back up. What went wrong?
Watch and see!

We're Lisa & Dave. We love to travel anywhere warm and friendly, to explore, meet new people, see new places, and share what we see. Sailing Dark Angel is our unscripted tale of learning a whole new life. Freedom and adventure on the water, living an alternative lifestyle. We decided our YouTube channel would reflect the new experiences and discoveries we make.
