#sailing #livingfree #boatmaintenance
I wanted to do some shopping at the popular Colombane market. So the ladies, Chantal and Sorna offered to take me there to protect me and to help in negotiating. When they see a foreigner the prices double. We still got some fair deals. And the oil leak on my P...

#sailing #solosailing #offgrid
I needed to upgrade my solar energy system so I set off walking the streets of Dakar alone to find a store named Solar Solutions. I walked throughout the city alone for more than four hours. I wanted to save money on taxis and time because the streets are clogged with ...
#solosailing #offgrid #livingfree
One of the main reasons I came back to Dakar Senegal was to get my sails repaired and more. I do not have the budget to simply order new sails. Here people don’t just replace things, they fix things. I was impressed by Diego the sailmaker's professionalism and...
This week Sabado went back in the water after being hauled out for maintenance in St. Maarten! Upon leaving the boat yard, we decided to take advantage of the wind and sail overnight back to the USVI.
Are you considering getting boat work done in St. Maarten? Here are the people we reccomend:

#sailing #offgrid #solosailing
We were underway. Just me and Galopin. This would be my first long solo passage. I felt I needed this challenge. To get to know myself and my boat. Being alone puts you more in touch with your environment. Your reality. It’s just you, your boat and the ocean. It can be...

Sailboat Safety equipment is key for your piece of mind while at sea and in port. When buying an older sailboat, one of the first things you (or your surveyor) should check is the...

Meet Marizia, probably the coolest sailor girl ever. We've been friends for a long time, and I asked her if we could do a quick one on one interview. She talks candidly about her new job and too much partying in Sao Vicente. And she gives an inside peek...

This episode begins with the sanding down of the now-cured fiberglass blisters on Calicos' hull. Next, Bill and friends Big D and Jared work together using Total Boat fairing compound to smooth out th...
A big part of cruising is looking after your boat so it can look after you. In the Mediterranean most of those jobs are done in the winter and the list can get very long.
This is the part of cruising you don't often see on YouTube but it is part of the lifestyle so this is a different episode f...
#sailing #offgrid #roughsea
Sailors love to tell their tales, and this is just that. A real life sailor's story told by the sailor who lived to tell it. Sailing around the Cabo Verde Archipelago can be and often is very rough. The islands are out in the North Atlantic ocean and swept by powerf...
This episode opens with Bill cleaning the rudder stuffing box with a wire brush in an attempt to remove years of corrosion in preparation for new packing material. Next, Bill switches gears back to our new arch project and continues to remove items from the stern of the boat to prepare for the new s...
#sailing #livingfree #roughsea
I did not expected it to be so tough, but as it often is when sailing around the Cabo Verde Archipelago, it was genuinely rough. And to add to that my autopilot gave out. I thought it would be good idea to sail leeward instead of windward of Sao Nicolau Island. I didn...
This episode opens with a reveal of our plans to build a whole new arch system from scratch. We discuss how we ended up with our current 'franken-davits' with a brief blast from the past to our NY sailing days and first cruises on Calico Skies.
We lay out our design considerations and wi...
#sailing #lifehacks #livingfree
Season premiere of Winded Voyage season 6 starts where we left off last season. Finding refuge from the fierce wind and waves on the nearest safe island anchorage because of autopilot failure. And coincidentally it's Friday the 13th, my birthday. Problem is a wo...

I’m Alex. I’m not pretty or an accomplished sailor. I don’t have a pension or a deep bank account to rely on. I departed alone one cold February day from the south of France to Barcelona. And continued along the Spanish coast to Tangiers Morocco. I went on to the Canary ...
In this episode Bill begins work at the yard by dropping the rudder the rest of the way down, a continuation of last week's videos work. We've decided to have a whole new rudder made after discovering deep pitting on the stainless steel pipe. He needs to remove the bushing but to drop the ...
In this episode Bill explains that the next project will be dropping the rudder because of suspect-looking pitting at the joint. Calico Skies is hauled out at Cabrales boat yard in Penasco Mexico and it's the beginning of a mini refit.
For this project Bill first must first uninstall and remo...
Another cold snap brought freezing temperatures overnight which meant for some chilly mornings. But that didn't stop us from getting some boat maintenance done.
#sailing #offgrid #hitchhikers
Galopin and I took on Jonathan, a Belgian boat hitchhiker to sail from Dakar Senegal to Mindelo Cabo Verde. And I spent Christmas Day with him out on the ocean.

We sail out of Dakar Senegal in West Africa and out into the rough Atlantic Ocean. Taking my boat Galopin for an open sea trial. Arona, the genius mechanic, had a new custom propeller shaft made and it proved to be an huge improvement on my boat's performance under...
