Flying Across the Caribbean for Yabá’s Biggest Upgrade Yet — Sailing Yabá
Episode #326 | Flying to Barbados
To get Yabá ready for the next leg of our journey up the coast, it’s time for a massive upgrade: a brand-new sail wardrobe. But getting four heavy sails back to the boat means leaving Rio behind, making a pitstop in Arraial do Cabo to leave the boat in good hands, and taking a quick trip halfway across the Caribbean.
From exploring the history of Lapa and stumbling into Crop Over in Barbados, to catching up with Sascha and Raf from @SpearItAnimal in Grenada—it turned out to be quite the detour.
In this episode:
Leaving Rio & stopping in Arraial do Cabo
Passing through the iconic Arcos da Lapa & learning about Zé Pelintra
Heading to Barbados right in time for Crop Over
Wrangling, packing, and compressing 4 new sails
Island hopping to Grenada to visit Spear It Animal
