28:00 Preview of next episode
In this episode we finally leave Lagos and sail straight out into the Atlantic towards the small Island Porto Santo, the weather is fantastic but as usual some drama comes when something onboard stopps working and we have to cross the Orca Dangerzone before we reach deep blue water.
We are a middle aged couple that has left our hectic business lives to go sailing with our boat Fridá af Wisby and our cat Litza. Our goal is not to go to a specific place but to reach a state of mind where we can really enjoy life.
Anders has been at the sea most of his life and sailed for the Swedish national dingy sailing team as a young man. Gitte has also grown up with boats and spent every summer sailing with her father as a teenager but made a pause of about 15 years without sailing as an adult, had just begun to pick-up the interest before she meet Anders in 2017. Onboard we also have our cat Litza a 4 year old Devon Rex we call her the cattain because cats always decide over their humans.
Fridá af Wisby is a Wauquiez 47 pilot saloon that we Gitte and Anders bought in UK in 2019 and that we have sailed to Gotland and in season 1 2020 we sail in the Baltic Sea. During season 2 We sailded south to Dieppe Normandy France. After a winter in France in Season 3 we started to sail the Atlantic coast of Europe to Xufre in Spain where we lifted the boat over the summer while we where back in Gotland to work at our hostel we got there. Season 4 got a short sailing season where we only sailed to Lagos on the Algarve coast of Portugal where we hauled out once again this time to go throug a long list of boatwork and to build a solar arch to make the boat more self-suficient with electricity. After 6 months in Lagos we kicked-off season 5 with real bluewater sailing first to the northerly Atlantic island Porto Santo and Madeira and then further out to the Azores that lays in the middle of the Atlantic ocean before turning back towards the mainland and south coast of Portugal again.

Sailing Frida af Wisby
This is a sailing and travel channel by a Swedish middle aged couple Anders and Gitte that quit working life enjoy life as sailors where plans is written in sand. Our Devon Rex cat Litza is part of the crew. We will show our life onboard, maintenance and project work on the boat, Gitte share some recipes and show cooking onboard, a lot of sailing and places we visit along the way. We sail a Wauquiez 47 Pilot Saloon from 2006 that we bought in Yarmouth in UK in 2019 and sailed home to Gotland in Sweden in the spring 2020. In August 2020 we began sailing south and we got to Dieppe in Normandy France before the winter. In 2021 we sailed the Atlantic coast of Europe to Lagos in Portugal. The plan for 2022 is to first sail to the Atlantic islands Madeira and Azores and then back to Lagos before we sailed into the Mediterranean Sea. We hope we can inspire You!
