SHE WENT WILD: Unfiltered Life on our 40ft Boat
SHE WENT WILD: Teulu Tribe’s 40ft Boat Adventure from Costa Rica to Nicaragua
Teulu Tribe, known for their unfiltered and exciting adventures aboard their 40ft sailboat, are back with yet another thrilling episode as they trade the picturesque waters of Costa Rica for the adventurous waters leading to Nicaragua. This journey marks not just a change in location but a series of challenges and firsts for Teulu Tribe, making it an episode you won’t want to miss.
Setting Sail from Papagayo Marina
The adventure begins at the serene Papagayo Marina where they have been staying. It’s not just about leaving behind beautiful Costa Rican landscapes but also preparing for the next stage of their journey with essential upgrades to their vessel.
Upgrading Their Nautical Equipment
In this episode, Teulu Tribe addresses one of cruising’s biggest challenges—dingy and outboard reliability. After realizing that their three horsepower dingy couldn’t keep up with the 13-tonne boat in challenging conditions during their escapades in Panama, they made the leap to a 15-horsepower Mercury outboard, significantly upgrading both safety and convenience. Alongside this major purchase, they also acquired an aluminum, “Swanky” range new dinghy.
A Clipper Boat Tour and Meetup
The Adventure Continues with the Clipper Round the World Yacht Race Community
Teulu Tribe’s exploration extends beyond their own boat, as they’re invited onto a Clipper 70 foot race boat—a part of the prestigious Clipper Round the World Yacht Race. This adventure offers them not just an exhilarating experience but also a chance to interact with professional crew and learn more about life aboard these high-speed racing vessels. It’s an insider look into what it takes to compete in one of sailing’s most challenging races.
Navigating Through Storms
The journey towards Nicaragua isn’t just smooth sailing. Teulu Tribe encounters fierce thunderstorms and navigates through heavy rains, testing their boat’s capabilities under extreme weather conditions. Despite the challenges, they find beauty in every moment, showcasing resilience and adaptability that is characteristic of long-term cruisers.
Checkout and Departure for Nicaragua
Final Leg: Checkout from Costa Rica
Apart from the excitement of navigating through storms, this episode also covers practical cruising matters, such as checking out of Costa Rican waters. They share the experience of dealing with Customs, Immigration, and other official processes to ensure a smooth departure—a crucial step often overlooked in cruising stories.
The Journey Ahead
As they set sail for Nicaragua, Teulu Tribe leaves behind beautiful memories, challenges faced, and new friendships. This leg of their journey marks not just a geographic shift but also a deeper connection with the sailing community worldwide. Follow Teulu Tribe as they navigate through unfamiliar waters, seeking new adventures, and growing stronger as a team.

*About Us*
We are Becka and Zach, a couple who, in 2020, dreamt of sailing off into the big blue. Trouble is- we were in a pandemic, had a university degree to finish, on a student budget, only had ever sailed dingies, oh and didn't have a boat. The dream seemed not only unrealistic but pretty insane.
However, we worked hard, finished our degrees, worked as many hours as physically possible, saved with all our might, got experience and in March 2022 bought our very own sailboat, Teulu. Having little sailing experience and being a young couple, we have encountered a tonne of hurdles and made plenty of mistakes! but for every downfall, there has always been a reason to dust ourselves off and carry on.
We hope you can join us as we sail around the world and keep #bloodydoingit

Teulu Tribe
Tŷ (a house) & llu (of numerous host). We are Becka and Zach and we want to give you the warmest welcome to the Teulu Tribe. Since meeting in 2018, it has always been our dream to buy a sailboat, and after lockdown and coming out of university, this idea seemed not only unrealistic but pretty insane. However, we worked hard, gained experience and in March 2022 bought our dream sailboat, a 1987 Colvic Victor ketch. Having little sailing experience and being a young couple, we have encountered a tonne of hurdles and made plenty of mistakes! but for every downfall, there has always been a reason to dust ourselves off and carry on. So hop on board, join our Teulu and lets see what this ‘living’ business is all about.
