0:00 – Intro: Where are we now? Where have we come from on our sail around the world via Cape Horn, Tierra del Fuego & the canals of Patagonia.
1:46 – (1) Sailing from Puerto Montt to Hornopirén & Isla Pelada
3:23 – (2) Sailing to the hot springs of Cahuelmo in Pumalin National Park. We don our bathing suits and enjoy the thermal pools, go on an epic hike to a mountain lake, and find our dinghy left high and dry so we must white water raft our way back down a glacial river to our boat. Fiordo Cahuelmo Termas y Parque Pumalin
7:14 – (3) Accessible only by boat, we visit Termas de Porcelana and grab a mooring ball to bath in these amazing volcanic thermal pools.
9:05 – (4) Isla Pelada’s secret anchorage. We meet some local fisherman who we share this quiet anchorage with and have a wonderful time trading beer & wine for Centolla and fish.
11:16 – (5) Sailing to Bahia Edward’s on Isla Talcon, we stay here for the night on our transit south to take shelter from a storm moving in from the north and take the dog for a walk on the beach.
12:24 – (6) Anchoring in Puerto Santo Domingo on our treck south.
13:29 – (7) We enter the small lagoon of Pozo De Oro (Gold Well) and dodge rocks to shore tie our sailboat securely in the mountainous are. We don’t find any gold, but we explore the small town of Melimoyu, and Roxy the sailing dog makes a few new friends during our hike.
15:26 – (8) We sail to the Chilean 5 star resort of Puyuhuapi Lodge where we indulge in a little bit of luxury and swim in the amazing thermal hot spring pools.
16:56 – (9) Visiting the town of Puyuhaupi & Caraterra Australia. We drop our anchor in 90 feet of water and shore tie our J Boat in front of this great little tourist town in Patagonia and grab an amazing desert as a special treat.
18:23 – (10) Sailing Seno Morras on Isla Magdalena. We meet the most amazing woman who lives off the grid alone on this island. We spend several days with our new friend Blanca, who cooks us an amazing meal, tells us about the history of the area, and shows us a rarely visited ecotourism area filled with rare & beautiful trees. Roxy makes some new dog friends as well.
20:58 – Puerto Aguirre. We meet up with some old friends in this familiar place we visited as we sailed north through the fjords of Patagonia. This time we are here to stage for our expedition sailing adventure to the glacier of Laguna San Rafael.
21:06 – (11) Caleta Ubaldo: We take refuge here for the night as we navigate the fjords to make our way south. New friends visit us on the Ketch rigged sailing vessel Candine.
22:57 – (12) We enter Bahia Sisquelan where we find an abandoned sawmill with antique steam engines, belt driven saws, and abandoned railways. We also take a look around an abandoned fishing outpost in this natural harbor. We wait here to time the tides correctly for the entrance to Laguna San Rafael.
25:00 – (13) Our expedition climaxes at the world’s northernmost tidewater glacier, Laguna San Rafael. We navigate between enormous icebergs and growlers as we work our way precariously in our fiberglass sloop to the head of the glacier, witnessing it calving in front of us.
