This is the epitome of what sailing means for us… Freedom.
When we’re at anchor we are in our own little world and in a quiet anchorage like this it almost feels like we have the entire bay to ourselves.
Your day is your own to do as you wish. If you want to wake up at 5 am and go for a swim, before sitting in the cockpit in your underwear while you drink your coffee and watch the sunrise, you have the freedom to do this.
If you want to go to a beach, you grab a bag with some towels, suncream and something to drink, jump in your tender and you are ready to rock and roll. Whether you decide to come back after an hour, or 8 hours, you just do whatever you feel like, and your little floating home – with its fully stocked galley and nice cold fridge – bobs around waiting there to welcome you home whenever you’re ready.
If you want to explore the shallow nooks & crannies of a bay, or head in to check out some nearby beaches, you can stick your outboard (or electric motor if you enjoy peace & quiet) on the back of your dinghy and go on a little scouting expedition. If you fancy a workout you can do this under oar instead.
If you fancy going for a sail, but you can’t be bothered to take the boat from ‘house mode’ to ‘boat mode’, you might decide to pootle about under sail with your tender. This is a great way to see the coastline from up close and feel very close to the water, which in itself makes you feel like you are very much connected to the environment around you.
As you pass the shoreline you might keep your eyes peeled for some firewood, dandelions, primula, edible funghi, or other such bounties of nature and collect them for dinner. Arriving back at the boat with your goodies you will feel a little bit like Robinson Crusoe, and your meal will fill you with a little side-dose of satisfaction in addition to its calorific value.
You can then keep a lookout for shooting stars while drinking a beer, before being rocked to sleep in your little floating home.
This really is paradise for us, and we can’t wait to get out there again when we can, with an even deeper appreciation for the freedom that life afloat can provide.
