#sailing ##livingfree #offgrid
Somewhere north of the coast of the windward Cape Verde islands, me and my boat Galopin are averaging 7kts speed. My best sailing yet. It’s all about trimming sails and wind angle as we barrel over the Atlantic. Two old timer sailors taking on the great ocean and taking in the favorable conditions. I’m living free and sailing in Cabo Verde Africa.
