🇬🇧Gradually, at my own tempo, I dare to sail more and more with more wind. Keep practising, daring, believing that one day I will be ready to discover the world with La Belle Bleu. Solo and together with my little family, we are making progress and it feels great! They too have now been infected with the sailing virus and want to join us one day. I am looking forward to that immensely! FYI: I use the sailprooftablet as my plotter outside. A great buddy who works perfect even with sun on it and rain!! For more info: @smartmarine.nl And I don't earn anything by mentioning this, I just love the product! 🇳🇱Langaam aan, op mijn tempo, durf ik steeds meer met meer wind te gaan zeilen.Blijven oefenen, durven, erin geloven dat ik op een dag er klaar voor ben om de wereld te gaan ontdekken met La Belle Bleu. Alleen en samen met mijn kleine familie maken we stappen en dat voelt geweldig! Ook zij zijn inmiddels besmet met het zeilvirus en willen op een dag mee. Daar kijk ik enorm naar uit! FYI: Ik gebruik een tablet van Sailproof als mijn plotter. Een geweldige buddy die zelfs met zonlicht en regen duidelijk leesbaar blijft! Voor meer info: @smartmarine.nl ( ik verdien hier niets aan☺️ het is gewoon een geweldig produkt!) 🎥 @daankrause

Falmouth, Cornwall | The West Country of England is a sailor’s dream. Small, picturesque and historic ports and harbours pepper the coast, many with deep water berths, long navigable rivers and excellent pubs. Falmouth in Cornwall is one of our favourites, where we stopped off for a few days to visit a good friend. This was one of the major ports for Britain’s shipping trade from the 18th to the early 20thCentury, with ships from all around the world anchoring in the harbour to await instructions from their agents as to which port in the British Isles had the best market at that moment. It was also a major fishing port, especially for Pilchards. As a consequence, the town has a rich maritime heritage which lives on to this day, with serious racing for the fine historic Falmouth work boats (with their distinctive coloured tops’ls) and six sailing clubs throughout the Falmouth Estuary. It is also a popular cruise ship destination. The National Maritime Museum in Falmouth is a gem, with exhibits ranging from the first Mirror Dinghy, to a workshop demonstrating traditional boatbuilding and a 1.68m long ‘boat’ called Fathers’ Day that crossed the Atlantic in 1993! There was even a surf exhibition when we visited, as this part of the UK has a strong surf culture, borne of the Atlantic rollers and swell that land on the exposed Cornish and Devon coasts. The shanty-style music that accompanies this video is called ‘The Wellerman’ and has its origins in the whaling industry in Otago, New Zealand.
