11 Days at Sea: St Helena to Fernando de Noronha | S6 E03
Eleven days at sea, sailing west across the South Atlantic from St Helena to Fernando de Noronha.
There’s no big crisis on this passage—just the rhythm of life aboard Happy Days. We keep the boat moving, share watches, work and do school, while Archie and Bella try their hand at navigating with a sextant. And to mark each day at sea, we add another lap around the boat.
As the days begin to blur together, Fernando slowly gets closer. Come along for the crossing, the first glimpse of land, and our arrival somewhere entirely new.
Thanks for being part of the journey! If you enjoyed the episode, please give it a like and subscribe. We’d love to hear from you in the comments: how would you keep track of eleven days at sea?
Next time, we head ashore to explore Fernando de Noronha.
