A leaky fuel tank is not stopping my sailboat Karl and me from exploring our surroundings. I lift up the anchor and sail away by myself, leaving Boca Chica behind and heading east, topping along the coast and at some pretty little remote islands on the way...
ALERT: Coordinates of Boca Chica Marina are wrong. It's supposed to be: 08*13.2047N // 082*13.4485W *sorry* :)
There is always one more little thing on the to do list. I have learnt with the years that the list will never be done and that waiting in some ...
Back to being solo on my little floating home Karl. The first night alone at anchor is a bit stressful due to a massive thunderstorm cruising through. It makes me realize what it means to be back to solo-ing it. My anxiety level peaks up and it feels like ...
My parents are back on Karl, it’s their second time on board. Last time, Karl was Engine-less and on a mooring. This time, they actually get to take him out for a spin.
They wanted to experience what it is like to live and travel on Karl and I think Ka...
UNTIE THE LINES is BACK!
After some time back home in Germany and helping Maria with charters on Joana, I am finally returning to my floating home Karl. As usual, he has not been too impressed with my absence and has prepared a fairly annoying surprise fo...
I solo sail from Costa Rica to Panama and take on the epic adventure of navigating up a windy, shallow and quite remote river upon my arrival in Panama. My depth sounder has seen bigger numbers for sure, charts are incorrect and I have to be on my toes not...
Leisure time for Karl and me, jipiiieeeeh!!! I moved Karl a little closer to the surf spot in Pavones and borrowed a surf board of my new neighbor Tassiano to try and catch some waves.
Since it's been a good ten years since I last surfed, I did a lot of wa...
Many dared to go on a little hike with me in Bahía Rincon and of course we got a little lost.
Unfortunately, it was already time to say goodbye again to Manny...
My Kayak got stolen in Golfito and after some dull and angry days of trying to get it back...
You might remember Manny from one of the earlier San Blas charter episodes on Sail Joana. After booking a charter on Maria's sailboat Joana in June 2017, he had asked me if he could come and visit me on Karl one day. And here he is! Manny jumped on board i...
Life as a solo sailor girl is always a rollercoaster and I hope you understand that I live the highs and the lows to a full extent. It's crazy how the lows get blown away by the excitement, the beauty and the total bliss you get to experience as a sailor.

Karl and I are still on our way to Costa Rica. It's the typical crazy up and down of cruising life...Some things went really well and some things went not so fantastic. Travelling by myself always throws me from one mood to the other, sometimes feeling tot...
Karl and I are on the move to San Jose to get a little closer to our next destination. I meet up with single handed sailor Jim and we explore a beautiful river in the anchorage.
Looks like Karl is ready for the next two night sail towards Costa Rica.
My friends from SV Chuffed are picking up anchor to head back to Panama City and the fun times of buddy boating are over again.
There are some boat jobs that need to be done before I leave Pedro Gonzales to start my way over to Costa Rica.
Some of you ha...
The Pacific is for sure a little bit more rolly here and there. It's a good challenge to groove back into solo sailing and to grow some sea legs again.
For once, I find myself to be the one that stands by whilst my friends have an engine failure and I rea...
