Hey guys,
It's been a bit long between videos but here a good one for you. We explore the Northern Sea of Cortez, a beautiful but very dry, barren, and remote part of the world.
Our first night we anchor at Puerto Refugio, a spectacular spot! We explore the Bahia de Los Angeles then a couple ...
Valentine’s Day on my boat in Cape Verde was quite an event. My friend Wendy organized a small party with three of her friends. It went on until dawn when more people came aboard and the fun continued on. Man, can Cape Verdeans party. Before that I did various boat checks on Galopin as we're ex...
Hello again! In this video we sail to the island of Cabrera, a National Park in the Balearics. We're lucky to get a spot there in high season and start to make our way down from the North of Mallorca.
We stop for a night in what could be the best or worst anchorage that we have all to ourselv...
Yes, I got mugged but not robbed. Me and two friends of mine were ambushed in the street. A rare event in Mindelo. But since Covid, people seemed to have gotten more desperate. Less tourist, less work. It’s hard for the locals, but thats no excuse. And things get very dirty deep inside my boat. Some...
Time to leave Golfito for a bit of sailing up the coast of Costa Rica’s wildest region. As round the point we lose our wind and end up motor sailing the rest of the way to Bahia Drake. Once there we drop our anchor and settle in to explore the region. We walk the isolated village, take a tour out to...
Hello! Wow we've been gone a while! We took a break as we were crossing the Atlantic so back to sharing more regularly again. We're still working through our content from our Summer in the Mediterranean, and in this video, we have some friends and family visit. We share what we get up to f...
This the season of good byes or rather see you laters, au revoir, hasta la vista. Sailors are hopping on the Tradewinds West. To the Caribbean or South America. I meet a friend I had met three year ago in Cape Verde. We catch up and I get more things done on my boat Galopin so I can soon start sail...
I see sailboats leaving Mindelo Bay everyday to cross the mighty Atlantic Ocean. And I'm trying to sail on myself. But me and my boat Galopin are still getting some things done. But we have time to explore a house perched on the cliffs above the ocean which we have been seeing from our boats so...

It was the day before my birthday and I had forgotten. In January, just after all the holidays festivities, you’re not really in the mood for a birthday party. But the party came to me. So I live to live another birthday. Then the realities of being a live aboard full time sailor sets in. There are ...
In this episode we finalise the last few things on the hard before splashing. Once we know she floats we turn our hand to learning all the 'in-water' systems. We run into trouble with the generator overheating, we struggle to get the water maker recommissioned and we run into even more cha...
Back aboard Galopin. Back to the reality of living aboard a sailboat full time. First things are, problems to resolve. There is always something. But as wel I see friends like Peter and the gang as well as lovely Wendy. And I bring back a machete for my boat and go into the self defense speech. Weap...
If ever a place name was completely accurate, it’s Punta Mala Panama, or Bad Point. This point in Panama is notorious for rough sailing as unpredictable weather swings, strong currents and heavy freighter traffic headed for the Panama Canal make sailing around this point a tough challenge. Toss in a...
Another wave of Covid washes over Europe. Portugal tightens its rules. All travelers must be Covid negative and prove it with tightly secured documentation. Traveling during Covid times sucks! This is how I got from Europe to Cape Verde Africa and back to my boat Galopin. Sailing Galopin in Cabo Ver...
In this episode we grab hold of the tasks set out from the survey report and get to work to ready the boat for the water. She's been on the hard for 6 months and although the previous owner was diligent with the ongoing maintenance there is still work to be done.
Join our boatyard antics and s...
