We left Denmark 6 months ago and now we have a different lifestyle but the routines are pretty much the same. What do you think? #shortoftheday #circumnavigation #sailingcouple

My parents planned a circumnavigation. Now I have a girl in every harbor. 🐾 It’s tough to keep track! Follow along to see who will be me next girl 😏 #dog #cutedog #sallingdog #traveldog #circumnavigation #sailordog #shortoftheday

We stayed i Vigo, Spain, for 1,5 month and one weekende we went out to drop the hook and explore a bit.

Getting up while it’s still dark feels impossible — every single time. But the when I step into the cockpit and take over the watch, it’s like the world hits pause just for me. The silence. The stillness. The sky slowly shifting from black to gold. And honestly… the best part? Breakfast is whatever snack you grab first, because no one is there to judge. It’s the kind of magic you forget exists until you’re the only one awake to witness it. Morning watch isn’t just a duty. ✨It feels like a gift✨ Have you ever done a morning watch? What’s your favourite part — or what do you imagine it would be? #circumnavigation #sailing #cutedog #mediterranean #cruising #sailingdog #sailaway #sailinglife #liveaboard #sailingcouple #shortoftheday

Sailing through orca territory isn’t something we take lightly and while preparing this post for you guys, we heard another sailboat calling for help on the radio..How we stay informed and reduce the risk as much as possible: 📍We monitor:• GT Orcas App – To stay updated about interactions, sightings and risk mapping. • www.orcas.pt – MMSI verified fellow sailors for live-updates. • Telegram groups – Live updates from fellow sailors. • Orca Facebook groups - to stay updated. • We listen to channel 16 (as always) and when we here something related to a orca situation we start recording the conversation so we can go back and listen to it again ex. if we didn’t get the position, name of the vessel etc. ⚠️Our precautions:• We have chosen to only sail in daylight – Which sometimes means early mornings to do a long leg. If something were to happen, we rather want to handle it in full visibility than in the dark. • We have chosen to stay in shallow water - inside the 20m depth counter when possible, but still keeping a safe distance from breaking waves and shallow hazards. • We carry a duffel bag full of sand on deck– The most humane way to try and deter orcas, should they approach the rudder. • We maintain constant lookout – For tall dorsal fins, but also for coastal fishing gear when close to shore. • We talk through roles and action plans - so everyone onboard knows what to do in case of an emergency. 🚨Our procedure in case of an orca interaction: 1: Engine on, max speed, turn boat towards shallows and/or land. 2: One person in charge of throwing sand in the water to hopefully prevent the orcas from damaging the rudder. 3: One person in charge of flipping the swimmingladder down in the water and banging it with a hammer to make loud noises in the water to deter the orcas. 4: Other important things is to issue a Pan-Pan call on the vhf, continuous lookout and video documentation of the interaction. N.B that this is simply the way we’ve chosen to handle the situation, not a detailed A–Z guide on how you should proceed. Always make sure to research the specific area you’re sailing in. Stay safe. #orca #sailing #shortoftheday #circumnavigation

From last winter when we prepered for the winter, this year is another story. When we bought the boat, it came with some nice covers for all the hatches. We’ve used them a lot, and it’s a good thing this is the last winter we’ll need them, because they’re just about worn out 🤗🌍⛵️ #shortoftheday #sailing #sailboat #winter #diy

Step 1 — Introduce the mat Let your dog sniff it, reward any interest. Make it a positive place. Step 2 — Watch for potty signs Sniffing, circling, pacing — that’s your cue. Step 3 — Guide your dog to the mat Every single time. Keep your cue consistent: “go potty”. Step 4 — Reward immediately Praise during, treat right after. This is where the magic happens. Step 5 — Add a scent marker Put a tiny bit of your dog’s own pee on the mat the first days. It helps a lot. Step 6 — Build a routine Take your dog to the mat after sleep, food, play, and excitement. Step 7 — Transition to the boat Move the mat to its final spot onboard once the habit sticks. #dog #cutedog #sailingdog #circumnavigation #pottytraining

We struggled a lot to find a good storage space for our fenders. We considered various options, such as storing them around the mast, at the aft swim platform, and even deflating them for air 💨 After many trials and errors, we finally found a solution that works very well for us. It may not be the most aesthetically pleasing solution, but it solves our storage problem without taking up regular storage space 🏠 vs. ⛵️ #justoceans #reeloftheday #sail #sailboat #sailing #jordomsejling #circumnavigation #båd #sejl #sejlbåd #sejler #sailboat #boathack #lifehacks

We were limited in how much we could explore, for a few reasons: – We weren’t allowed to declare Anker, so he had to stay on board. – The forecast hinted at strong winds coming in… – …and we couldn’t risk being stuck, since we’re dropping off a crewmember on Friday. So, we made the most of it! Wandered the charming streets, soaked up the island’s calm and authentic vibe, and of course — ordered cider and fish n’ chips at the local pub. What more can you ask for? Guernsey, we’ll be back. Next time, with more time and a dog who’s allowed on land 🐶🌞 #sail #sailing #circumnavigation #shortoftheday #guernsey #explore #adventure #liveaboard #dog #cutedog

Vela was out of the water at 10:45, we started removing the leaky thru hull at 11:48, and by 13:40, the new thru hull was in place. Now, we’ve been waiting approx for 3 hours for the epoxy to cure so we can apply a couple of layers of primer! And tomorrow some antifouling 🎨 SUPER EFFICIENT! What do you think? We’re glad we had done this 14 times before tackling this thru hull with limited time. We’re happy to offer tips and guidance if you need it! Just send us a DM 😋 #sail #sailboat #sailing #jordomsejling #circumnavigation #båd #sejl #sejlbåd #sejler #sailboat #shortoftheday

The current status: We’ve tested the fit, and our welder tack-welded the pipes while making final adjustments to ensure everything aligns perfectly 👌🏼 After that, we removed it again so he could complete the welding properly in his workshop. Now, it’s off to the electropolisher!✨ We expect to have it back in early April, and we can’t wait! #solararchitecture #solarpanels #solarenergy #diy #sail #sailing #sailboat #circumnavigation #reeloftheday

While everyone was enjoying their summer vacation, we finally found the time to renovate the teak deck! It took us 3 weeks with an average of 12 hours of work each day! 🥵 We are so happy with the result! What do you think? ✨ P.S. We have saved a highlight on our profile where we go through and show all the steps of the process! Do you have a teak deck you’d like to renovate? ⚒️ #sail #sailboat #sailing #circumnavigation #sailingdiy #teak #teakdeck #renovation #sailboat #reeloftheday
