BEST SMALL SAILING YACHT in the world!!
Welcome to Episode 1 of Sailing Melody.
In this first episode we introduce you to our family, our plans to sail around the world and do some sailing in our Snapdragon 24 around the coastline of North Wales. We explore the wildlife to be found and look at some different yacht and keel designs and underwater profiles in preparation for finding our Bluewater Sailing yacht to go full time cruising
We are Jack, Melissa and Andy, a little family who live in North Wales.
We have a small sailing boat called Aeolus which we sail around the welsh coastline.
During this series we will bring you with us on our adventures as we learn as much as we can about sailing, nature, the wind, the waves, the weather, history, music, art, ourselves and each other.
We’re in the process of setting up our Patreon and Coffee accounts but for now please please hit the like button and subscribe to the channel to keep up to date with all future episodes.
Thanks to Chris, Abbie and Robbo for helping make this episode possible.
