Two years on Hi. ⛵️ Two years that challenged us, stretched us, and opened us up in ways we didn’t expect. It’s been beautiful. And hard. And completely worth it. Some days felt like two weeks. Others like five years. We’ve had unforgettable highs – and some very real lows. One of the biggest lessons? This life triggers everything. Our perfectionism. Our need for control. Our idea of “how things should be.” And that doesn’t make it easier – but it makes it honest. It shows us who we really are. And what we’re ready to let go of. We’ve fixed things, broken things, tried things, and left things behind. We’ve learned.We’ve grown.And our love? It’s deeper than ever – even when it’s messy. Are we fully there yet? Maybe. Maybe not.But we’re a whole lot closer to ourselves than when we started. And most days, we stop, take a deep breath, and say:“This life... it’s not a given. It’s a gift.” Two years. One boat. One ever-evolving, imperfect, beautiful us. Thanks to everyone who has been with us on the journey so far! ❤️ #boatlife #sailing #liveaboard #sailinglife #sailingcouple #patandfrankie #sailingboat
If you are an exhausted (or lazy) pigeon intending to move from the swedish west coast and cross the "Skaw" to spend some summertime on the norwegian south coast, what do you do? - If your timing is in line with the Volvo Ocean Race 2014-15 finish in Gothenburg you could go for a ride on one of the worlds fastest monohull sailboats, a norwegian owned "Volvo Open 70".. See https://www.kullmann.no/pages/bkd-race1.html for more.
The sail from George Town to Black Point was awesome. The last hour, a squall came through shifting the wind around to the nose. We had purposely gone this far, missing Staniel Cay, so that we'd hit cut on a flood and not have to burn a bunch of fuel with an ebb tide. I would suspect this cut would be pretty challenging hitting it on an ebb with opposing wind. It was pretty calm outside the cut, but the waves really turned up inside the cut (on the Bahamas Bank Side)
