In this episode we work our way to Martinique and run into some pretty rough weather and sailing conditions. I enjoy a hidden spa in the back of our engine room, and we struggle with an anchor situation that was a bad omen for the start of the trip. ============== 🔔Subscribe now and join us on a life-changing adventure.

Our goal is to complete a circumnavigation and we recently transitioned to a performance catamaran and are madly in love with our Outremer 52. We worked with Outremer in France (with the help of Google Translate) to launch our boat project and start our journey as sailing vagabonds. While it’s not a race or speed test, we are doing our first Bluewater crossing this year and we are excited to see AWEN stretch her legs and dance on the water. Join us as we share what we’re learning and attempt this new life of travel and adventure on the ocean. Please be patient with us as we continue to improve our YouTube vlogging skills. Our goal isn’t to make our life a movie, it’s to give back to what others have shared with us.

Holly and Stephane are formerly from the San Francisco Bay Area but have a home in Tahoe. Our 'someday' plan was to sell our belongings, buy a boat, and, with reckless abandon, sail away to visit distant lands, which we did starting in 2020. You can follow our transition and journey in our candid podcast, Covert Castaway, wherever you listen. You can also follow every stop we’ve made with pictures and blogs and stream our podcast directly on our website. ================================= #sailing #martinique #catamaranlife #oceanadventure #outremer #sailing #catamaran #outremer #boatlife #catamaran #travelvlog #digitalnomad #lifestyle #sailboats #stayhealthy #learning #vlog #podcast #live #motivation #travel #nomad #boattour #sailingadventure #bucketlist #adventure #nomad #retirement #adventureawaits #ocean #learning #youtubecommunity #youtubelife #vlog #youtubechannel #performance #weather #SwN&x% #guadeloupe #scubadiving #rainforest © Sailing AWEN

This fine example of the Iconic Island runner has lived in the dry stack at Lions Bay Marina. Howe Sound Marine has been servicing the 5.7 GXi volvo engine which has only 718 hours on it and has a remote racor fuel filter. The canvas has the custom drop curtain back and is in great shape. The full length swim grid has a custom teak top, with a swim ladder attached to it. Boarding is a breeze with the step tread on the gunwhale and the fold down steps on both sides. The cockpit deck is self bailing and comes with a raw water wash down. There is 30 amp shore power with AC outlets. It has the sink-storage cabinet upgrade. There is upholstery for the engine hatch and removeable transom corner seats. The helm seat is a really cool wrap around bolster which converts to a supported seat. There is an Icom VHF radio and Furuno GPS. There is a big Vberth with lots of storage underneath and a marine toilet. Ask about transferrable moorage at Lions Bay.
