Arona and crew brought Simone the Perkins Diesel engine back home to Galopin via the beach and dinghy. He installed it just enough for us to go a give it a feel. Simone purred and we gloated. One of two of his most memorable jobs of his career. That’s the good news. Im having trouble with my solar Victron MPPT charge regulator. So we zip through the city to get looked at. With a stop at the police with crew. Two Frenchies and a Japanese.

An older dude who feels 30 sails the world on a small yacht and tells his live large adventures. Follow him from the beginning when he looks for a sailboat and buys it. Earns his Swiss offshore sailing license and refits his boat. Then sails alone from the south of France along the Spanish coast to Tangiers Morocco. On to the Canary Islands where he learned how to manage in extreme ocean conditions. Continues south to the Cabo Verde Islands, land of the most beautiful people ever. He learns to speak the local Creole language so to better understand the Cape Verdean culture. To enjoy life, feel young and love again. He recovers from hip replacement surgery and sails on to the great African continent where few sailors dare to go. His story is one of an old geezer living the life of a full time sailor with all it’s perils and pleasures. So hang on, eat, dance, laugh, love and discover the world with him and his boat Galopin. It’s their Winded Voyage. A real living adventure series.
