The wind disappeared. Which means… I’m now on full-time steering duty. The next 48 hours will basically be me glued to the helm, trying to keep us moving in the right direction all the way to Sint Maarten. Not exactly the most exciting part of the crossing. Just slow progress, small adjustments, and a lot of time behind the wheel. I’m also so tired at this point that I’ve started mixing the days together… I was fully convinced today was day 32. It’s day 33. That’s where we’re at 😅 Anyway, this is probably what the end of the crossing will look like. Let’s see how long the wind decides to stay on vacation 🌊 ⚓ Life on the Showgirl is my journey toward one of the toughest solo sailing races on the planet: the Golden Globe Race — sailed solo, non-stop, and without modern technology. Follow along as I learn, prepare, and chase a dream that feels bigger than me. ------------------------------------------ New videos EVERY 7th of the month ------------------------------------------ EXCLUSIVE CONTENT!!: https://www.patreon.com/classicmara ------------------------------------------ Follow Mara: https://www.instagram.com/classicmara_/ __________________________ Support me: PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/helgamarielk Vipps: 39088 - Classic Mara Venmo: https://account.venmo.com/u/griedy1 GoFundMe: https://gofund.me/173a9a5e6 __________________________ Affiliate links: Dakota Lithium Batteries: https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=79634&awinaffid=2732466&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dakotalithium.com Orca Navigation System: https://getorca.com/?via=classicmara PitViper: https://www.pitviper.com/discount/CLASSICMARA?redirect=%2F&utm_campaign=money%2Bcounters&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_source=upfluence
Ordinaria amministrazione a bordo di Julia Il tempo si sta dilatando. O meglio, la percezione che ne abbiamo. Ci sono momenti che corrono velocissimi, altri che non passano più. In generale ripensare a ieri ci mette in difficoltà “ma cosa abbiamo fatto ieri? Cos’è successo?” Ed è qui che vengono in aiuto i reel del giorno😄 Ognuno a bordo bene o male sta tenendo il suo diario personale sul viaggio e non mancano momenti di scambio, di riflessioni e di punti sulla situazione. Facendo un punto tecnico: navighiamo a 8,5 nodi al traverso. 14 nodi di vento. Rotta 050. Stiamo facendo prua poco più a nord delle Azzorre. Dobbiamo seguire il flusso anticiclonico che ci accompagna per mano alle Azzorre. A bordo tutto continua normale, una vita che non fa mancare i suoi ritmi e le sue necessità: si mangia, si dorme, ci si lava, si lavano i piatti. Tutto da programma, ciò che differisce sono solo i modi. Per il resto si fa tutto quel che si deve. Corriamo veloci, stiamo entrando nelle battute finali di questo viaggio che porteremo sempre tutti nel cuore. Un arrivo adrenalinico che richiederà strategia meteo e arguzia per scegliere la finestra di arrivo giusta, il percorso giusto e la rotta migliore per non rimanere nè senza vento nè prenderne troppo. Solitamente si augura buon vento, qui il buon vento dobbiamo andare a prendercelo noi. A.
This is Day 2 of spending a week with 91-year-old Chiharu in my little longevity laboratory here in Buren Bay, Japan. It's only the second time we've met. The first was a few months ago when I took her sailing aboard Wahine. Today, Wahine belongs to her son Mitsu, while I remain here continuing my research into longevity and the art of community. Today's highlights included: • Sunrise Radio Taiso • Breakfast together • Mitsu catching our supper • Haiku over lunch • Snorkeling in the bay • Supper together • A mountaintop sunset • Skateboarding • High fives What strikes me isn't just that Chiharu can still do these things at 91. It's that she wants to. She approaches each part of the day with curiosity, enthusiasm, and a readiness to join in. These are only small observations from everyday life, but they continue to shape the questions I'm asking about what it really means to age well. Tomorrow... Day 3.
