Aaaand that's it. Tomorrow, we are leaving on a 3500 nautical miles sailing journey that will take us from Bonaire (South of the Caribbean) to the Azores, in the middle of the Atlantic ocean. The truth is... we'll never be 100% ready. But this is the bes...

SETTING SAIL to Cape Verde! | Sailing Wisdom [S5 Ep8]

STUCK in the Strait of Gibraltar! | Sailing Wisdom [S5 ep2]
Trouble in paradise! We are having a very rough go at our path through the Strait of Gibraltar.

We end up going in circles for a couple of days, and ...![SAILING for Madeira: Leaving Continental Europe | Sailing Wisdom [S5 ep1]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi_webp/kA8asoW4554/mqdefault.webp)

Can you see LAND yet?! // Atlantic Crossing Daily Vlog #16
It is Day 16 of our Atlantic crossing between Cape Verde and Martinique, and we have less than 100 nautical miles to go! I try to kill time by spending almost two hours making breakfast and prepare Egg Benedicts from scratch. And because time goes so slo...
A Day our life crossing the Atlantic Ocean // Atlantic Crossing Daily Vlog #15

The long, windless and boring days at sea we (sorta) cherish… // Atlantic Crossing Daily Vlog #14
It is day 14 of our Atlantic crossing and we’ve now lived at sea for 2 weeks. Getting bored yet? So are we! ;) And while boredom is never a fun feeling, it also is the expression of nothing going particularly wrong, which is an experience to cherish. ...
Can the boat STOP BREAKING now?!!! (+ huge fish on our line!) // Atlantic Crossing Daily Vlog #13
I was SO happy at 2AM when it was time for our watch shift. Ryan came up from the cabin, we pulled the sails out all the way and after 24 hours on the engine we were finally sailing again! I was envisioning a good 6 hours of sleep, but that’s not really...
Hello from the middle of the Ocean! // Atlantic Crossing Daily Vlog #9

Halfway across = Party Time! // Atlantic Crossing Daily Vlog #8
It is day 8 of our Atlantic Crossing onboard, and although it took us a week, we are well settled. Around noon, we catch sight of our first ship since departing Mindelo and we are LITERALLY on a collision course. The ship slows down and we are not sure w...
Champagne sailing across the Atlantic // Atlantic Crossing Daily Vlog #7

The Atlantic is ROLLY (and I’m exhausted) // Atlantic Crossing Daily Vlog #5
It is Day 5 of our Atlantic crossing, and the sea state still makes it challenging for us to function. I feel a lot better than the day before, but really look forward for the sea to flatten a little bit. The whole situation reminded me of the time whe...
Dealing with sleep deprivation. // Atlantic Crossing Daily Vlog #4
It is Day 4 of our Atlantic passage and the sea state is worse than ever. Although the day starts well, our autopilot uses so much power that we decide to give it a break and hand steer for a while. The waves aren’t very high, but Polar Seal is rolling ...
Breaking and repairing our whisker pole mid-Atlantic // Atlantic Crossing Daily Vlog #3
We knew that eventually, sh*t would hit the fan. It was all a matter of when, and it started less than 48h into our Atlantic Crossing. This is Day 3 of our Atlantic Crossing, and after having broken our whisker pole, we attempt to repair it. This is an i...
Fishing success out of Cape Verde! // Atlantic Crossing Daily Vlog #2

Atlantic crossing: Not exactly a smooth start… // Atlantic Crossing Daily Vlog #1
