Can an Injured man with limited supplies live on a boat alone for a month? Sounds like a pitch for a reality TV show. But it's my reality. I'm stuck on a sailboat at anchor. Injured and alone. With limited food and water. And for who knows how long? But with the kindness of strangers, I...

Sailing west along the top of Flores Island took us to yet another beautiful island.

After a wake up call of what it's like to sail in these Cape Verdean waters by breaking something, we sail into a favorite bay of ours to make repairs. Our man Peixe begins by fishing for dinner. Then cooking a fried fish dinner under an orange sky. And in the morning he's up on the mast ...

Everyone says "Don't Go To Praia!" Well we did. We sailed into the bay and moored at the fishing pier next to fishermen. The beauty of living on a sailboat is that you can live one day near a deserted beach and the next in a busy city harbour. We are living in the city, the Port of P...
This is one of the best anchorages in Cape Verde. But a good anchorage is only as good as your anchoring, so I go down and check. As well I check out Cidade Velha, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The location of the anchorage. One of the most significant places of history in Africa. Where pirates wrea...
So far seven out of ten Cape Verdean islands I've sailed to and anchored, this may be the best spot to anchor. Santiago island is he largest of all the archipelago. There is much to see, and in this episode we see some more like the city of Assomada and then Cidada Velha, where I consider one o...

Sometimes sister luck parks itself right next to your boat and opportunity knocks. We are in Tarrafal on Santiago Island and Dutch schooner Oosterschelde weigh anchor besides us. I'd met the Captain in a few days ago in Mindelo, and as he passed by with his dinghy waved him over. He stopped an...
Sometimes good times get the better of us. But not during our passage to Santiago Island. We waited for the right conditions and the wait paid off. Beautiful conditions for the three of us to reflect that f good times in Mindelo. Once anchored in Tarrafal I get horribly sick. Just part of the voyage...
