Work, work, work. After a quick stint in Switzerland to do a paying gig, I board a train to my dear Galopin to do more work. And thanks to Neptune, I’m working with one of the best boat pros in the area. As far as I’m concerned, Daniel is probably the ...
This episode is far from distant shores and beautiful people. It’s about getting into the inside of things. Galopin is like a living being with a wired and tube network that gives him life. His inner workings were tired and needed refreshing. In comes my...
We finally were sailing downwind. I had prepared my spinnaker three times and put it away. But third try was the one. That was quite a journey and learning experience.
Later a whole other journey begins. The insides of Galopin are opened up. This when a n...
Once upon a time there was a tortoise and a hare. Each on their sailboats, they raced along the coast of Catalonia. The tortoise was lagging behind the hare, but made steady progress to catch up. Moral of the story, if you want to be a sailor, don't be afr...

My first time coming into a big port alone. And not just any port, Barcelona. It's amazing to sail into the heart of a city. You step out of your little floating home to walk around the city streets and shake out your sea legs. And then you get back into y...
It seemed the sea and weather played with us. Rocked our boats and trapped us in Palamos for hours. We made the best of it and continued down the coast the next day. It was a nice sail until my engine refused to start. Another test to pass. Getting into po...

In my opinion, there is no better way to learn about your boat and how to sail it than by doing it alone. I set out for this challenge with a 20 knot wind in my face. Heeling at close reach, I had to go to the bottom of the mast to take reefs. It was the f...
Winded Voyage Season 2 is off on new adventures. With my sailing license in hand I go back to Galopin in Port Leucate France to set off on an key challenge to my sailing apprenticeship. Solo sailing for two weeks. I’m supported by co-star “Bix”, a co...
We finally untie the lines for good!
We get up early to leave through the last lock in the Netherlands before the North Sea and pull off a 57 hours non-stop sail to Dieppe in France.
Join us on our trip and in case you are interested in our position, clic...
Finding peace and solitude by going solo is one thing, but when sailing you’ll inevitably find friends. They’re generally all helpful, generous, knowledgable, interesting, brave and congenial. We’ll meet a few of my new friends that help, party and w...
We went back for more sailing out in the sea. With more trial and error now I'm getting a little more familiar with Galopin. The sea was littered with jelly fish that looked like garter belts for can-can dancers. And it rained like it never rains in the so...
Battling my way north with a torn sail while navigating with a toy compass. 7 days against the wind from Spain, almost defeated by the coast of France . . will I make it home to Plymouth and the pub?
This is the last in the series, I really appreciate all ...
In the middle of Biscay I have a whale swim under the boat, Break a toe, Discuss the merits of having a piss bucket and have doubts about France.
Found some footage I'd lost and had been looking for that was taken in Biscay. as it fits in with the time lin...
We saw fish swim through town, a birdman and flying saucers! We followed recommendations to go to the town of Leucate for their Sol y Fiesta festival. Just small local festivities that blew our minds. We do manage to do a few projects, but this festival ha...
The winch saga continues in Episode 15, Good & Bad Winches. For a boat so well maintained, it was a surprise to see the winches had been so neglected. But it's all part of my Winded Voyage to get familiar with winches and their functionality. I took so...
The wicked winches of the West, East, North and South. They're all around Galopin! There are 9 winches in total that needed a good service. This episode will give you a look into winch servicing. We will also take a quick break and visit the the city of Pe...
In Episode 13 (lucky 13), I went looking for spring sails and found a happy green egg. It was Easter weekend, so this little green dude was hanging around Port Leucate, popping his head around the landscape. I did do a small project of installing a GPS Nav...
In this episode we are sailing through swells of Swiss bureaucracy. And that's just the information we need for the theoretical exam. You'll get a good idea of what Swiss sailing class is all about, and learn about "The Rule Of Thumb", which is an actual n...

More projects in the hands of pros for Galopin. The water heater gets replaced and the water circuit explained to me. As well as getting a liferaft and changing bulbs to LEDs. The wind was howling for several days, but Galopin stayed steady.
Please make y...
