It was without hesitation that we offered our time to help a young cruising couple with the mammoth job of sanding, faring & antifoul...
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 hi...
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 ...
We have been in marinas & the winds have been wild, but we never thought we would experience Force 8 winds & what an experience it was.

Being out in the middle of the ocean is a very lonely place, and being in the middle of the city is quite the opposite. Nat and I are with a few very special people in Praia. Namely Manu, a Cape Verdean native who lives in Marseille France, and in Praia. H...
A huge THANK YOU to Stanley who was so kind to take me out in his little boat to give me a crash course in how to catch Salmon.
This episode is all about meeting people during my travels. I am always amazed how many beautiful souls cross my wake. Wildlife...
It's something that can happen to any sailor. This is the story of Jurgen, German solo sailor who left his boat at anchor for a couple of hours only to come back and find his boat had disappeared. A few moments later he received a call and was told his boa...

Goodbye San Blas, hello Shelter Bay Marina!
It's time for us to leave the wonderful San Blas Islands to pick up our new batteries in Shelter Bay Marina. Imagine to have cold drinks again ;)
We leave early in the morning together with our friends SY Notori...
On this episode of Sailing on a Whim, we have yet another boat project fail as we attempt to complete the installation of our solar panels and try to finish some of our final projects before heading off to go cruising!

In this episode we sail and arrive in Milos. Jenny & Joanne go and explore the volcanic formed beach and then we sail off to our next destination. This is the place where the video This Girl by the Kungs was filmed. (Thanks to Paul for that info).

I recently met Eduardo who makes up the amazing whale research project in Mindelo, Cape Verde. Since then he's done a survey of locations at all the islands of Cape Verde where there is cetacean activity. We met again later in Mindelo and he showed me some...
Our tour of the Barlavento islands of Cape Verde is almost over. We have one more day to discover more friends and family in Sao Nicolau island. Then we make the passage from Sao Nicolau to Sao Vicente. It's back into the mighty Atlantic, and you feel it's...
This island is really something. Me and Nat had come here a few months ago, but did not visit the interior of the island because there was the "Bruma Seca". The Dry Fog. It's when the air is heavy with Sahara sand and the visibility is none. But this time ...
On this episode of Sailing on a Whim, we spring a leak while we are away from the boat and the Coast Guard stops by to tell us what we are doing right and what we are doing WRONG on our boat.
This crazy adventure started in early 2018 as we started resear...

Each island of Cape Verde has it's own identity. Boavista Island is the "Desert Island". Its golden white sand beaches was flown over from the Sahara desert by winds of thousands years. And there, on the West side of the island is Cape Verde's little deser...
Ever see a sailboat sailing under spinnaker in Cape Verde? This is a rare sight. But we did it. Conditions were just right for us to be sailing Cape Verde in full color from Sal Island to Boavista Island, about 40 nautical miles. We were joined by dolphins...
I noticed that part of my boom was in bad shape, broken. But Ricardo knew someone whom he was certain could fix my part. That's right, here they fix your busted part rather than replace. It's the African way, as opposed to what we're used to in the industr...
That's right! Three of us delinquents went sailing with cops on a catamaran. Deb and Phil bought their catamaran and have been getting ready to sail up to the Canaries for several months. They invited us to go sail with them and check things out. And they ...
The best part of sailing is that you can go anytime. Or can you? After a fun outing with Peixe and family, where young Nelson shows off his captain and dancing skills, we decide to sail to Boavista Island. It's all systems go... or not. We are stopped shor...
Margarida shows us she is the champ at catching crabs. I come second. Hey I don't care, I get to eat a log of crabs. The next day I am up early for a long ride out to some reefs that are a long way away. It doesn't all go to plan when the dinghy blows 1 se...
