Wendy had asked me if we could go to Santa Antao for a yearly festival. How could I refuse. Galopin was ready to go, and it was just a few nautical miles away. She asked if her friend Lori could come. Galopin has three cabins, so of course she could come. The ...
#sailing #sailinglifestyle #retirement
Two points of view of living in Cabo Verde, Africa. Young people enjoying the May Day Holiday and glimpse of life in retirement for a Rolls Royce engineer. Life is not easy for everyone on the island of Sao Vicente, but at times everyone makes it look easy.
So...
#sailing #sailinglifestyle #sailife
Arguably Mads and I are creators of two of the best sailing channels. I personally am a big fan of his channel Sail Life and the incredible work he's done on his boat Athena. But best of all, he sailed it with his lovely wife Eva to Cabo Verde where we met an...
#sailing #livingfree #sailboatlifestyle
It's the final leg of our journey sailing around Cabo Verde with our guest Ferdi. We return where we started from two weeks prior. There he talks of his experience in a one-on-one interview in our segment Galopin's Guest.
Some say it’s The Best Sa...
#sailing #sailinglifestyle #swelll
I’ve been to this anchorage many times before. And it’s usually a pretty laid back spot. But the past few days were different. Because of the incoming swell. It’s a shallow bay and the waves can break at any moment it seems. I did not feel so safe here with Galopin...
#sailing #marizia #sailinglifestyle
In our continuing series with Ferdi on his journey to get his ocean sailing license on Galopin. He's come with me to accumulate nautical miles and knowledge on the ocean. We do some safety training, like anchoring in a secluded golden beach and sail overnight...
#sailing #sailinglifestyle #seamanship
Seamanship, can it be taught? In my opinion no. You either got it or you don't. Like talent. You can't teach an artist, musician or athlete to be great. They just are. And should one have a sailing license? I didn't for several years and nothing ...
#sailing #sailinglifestyle #bikini
We were about twenty miles away, and it was getting dark. The wind had dropped so I started my engine. But it was not running right. I spent several hours trying to purge the injectors. It didn’t work. Thorfinn kept on helming. It seemed like the Gods wanted us to ...
#adventurer #sailinglifestyle #sailing
The latest of Galopin’s Guest interview is with Thorfinn who rode his bicycle from the most Northwestern point in Scotland to Senegal. Riding all the way through England, France, Northern Spain, Portugal, Morocco, Western Sahara, Mauritania and Senegal. And the...
#sailing #sailinglifestyle #roughsea
We say "Au revoir" to all the beautiful people I met in Dakar. The dilema for us sailors. But "Au revoir" means "See you". We head out in the afternoon to beat the fishermen who lay out their nets in the late afternoon. But they wer...
#sailing #livingfree #boatmaintenance
I wanted to do some shopping at the popular Colombane market. So the ladies, Chantal and Sorna offered to take me there to protect me and to help in negotiating. When they see a foreigner the prices double. We still got some fair deals. And the oil leak on my P...
#sailing #solosailing #offgrid
I needed to upgrade my solar energy system so I set off walking the streets of Dakar alone to find a store named Solar Solutions. I walked throughout the city alone for more than four hours. I wanted to save money on taxis and time because the streets are clogged with ...
#solosailing #offgrid #livingfree
One of the main reasons I came back to Dakar Senegal was to get my sails repaired and more. I do not have the budget to simply order new sails. Here people don’t just replace things, they fix things. I was impressed by Diego the sailmaker's professionalism and...
#sailing #solosailing #collision
I was motor sailing fast at seven plus knots. I wanted to beat the sunset so I could anchor in daylight. But then I had to get through this monumental maze of fishing nets until I hit a dead end. This was bad. Very bad. With forceful wind and smashing waves, I manag...
#sailing #offgrid #solosailing
We were underway. Just me and Galopin. This would be my first long solo passage. I felt I needed this challenge. To get to know myself and my boat. Being alone puts you more in touch with your environment. Your reality. It’s just you, your boat and the ocean. It can be...
#sailing #offgrid #livingfree #sailorgirl
Meet Marizia, probably the coolest sailor girl ever. We've been friends for a long time, and I asked her if we could do a quick one on one interview. She talks candidly about her new job and too much partying in Sao Vicente. And she gives an inside peek...
#sailing #offgrid #roughsea
Sailors love to tell their tales, and this is just that. A real life sailor's story told by the sailor who lived to tell it. Sailing around the Cabo Verde Archipelago can be and often is very rough. The islands are out in the North Atlantic ocean and swept by powerf...
#sailing #offgrid #adventure
I’m Alex. I’m not pretty or an accomplished sailor. I don’t have a pension or a deep bank account to rely on. I departed alone one cold February day from the south of France to Barcelona. And continued along the Spanish coast to Tangiers Morocco. I went on to the Canary ...
#sailing #offgrid #livingfree #seasick
It's a new year in Mindelo and people are back out on the streets to celebrate as well as aboard Galopin. I get ready to sail to Dakar and this time I'm going solo. The wind is more than anticipated and I get really seasick. My autopilot gives out an...
#sailing #offgrid #livingfree
We sail out of Dakar Senegal in West Africa and out into the rough Atlantic Ocean. Taking my boat Galopin for an open sea trial. Arona, the genius mechanic, had a new custom propeller shaft made and it proved to be an huge improvement on my boat's performance under...
#sailing #offgrid #livingfree
When Galopin was sailing with the motor under load I heard and felt something was not right. And it was Arona, the genius mechanic who discovered why. The propeller shaft was bent. In a few days my boat got properly shafted by Arona at CVD yacht club in Dakar Senegal.

#sailing #offgrid #livingfree
Here we are living on the hard in Dakar Senegal. Me and my boat Galopin. In this case the hard or boat yard is the beach. Which is just in front of CVD, Club de Voile Dakar, the yacht club. I'm hosted by Arona who is the technical manager and as well a gentle giant...
#sailing #offgrid #livingfree
Adele and I sail through traffic on our approach into Dakar. The girl gets off Galopin and we say good bye. She was great to have aboard. And the boat goes up on the beach. I'll be living up there for a few days. It's kinda of weird. Not for all cruisers, but ...
