Ci svegliamo verso le 8. Il mare è calmo, il cielo azzurro e c’è poco vento. Decidiamo di tirare su l’ancora subito e metterci in marcia verso San Vito Lo Capo, poche miglia. Il mare ha ancora un po’ di onda morta dai giorni prima a causa del forte vento di ponente che c’è stato. Arriviamo, buttiamo l’ancora e lavoriamo. Pomeriggio all’insegna di call e operatività. Acqua bellissima anche se c’è un po’ di risacca che ci fa rollare all’ormeggio. Verso le 19 ci spostiamo al ridosso del frangiflutti del porto (non potevamo andarci prima perché assalito da mille barchini in gita giornaliera). Riormeggiamo e ci risistemiamo. Mia oggi ha un po’ patito l’onda morta, poi si è fatta una dormita degna dei migliori pisoli da gatto ed è rinata fresca come una rosa, famelica e curiosa😁 Che bello vederla ambientarsi, superare le sue paure, cercare di trovare i suoi posti “sicuri”. Una splendida e coraggiosa gatta marinaia😁 Siamo felici. E non è che l’inizio insieme! Prossima settimana avremo un bel po’ di gente da presentarvi 😄 Ma tempo al tempo, ora ci godiamo le coccole delle mamme♥️ Un bacione e a domani😁 Andre

Day 1. After five days in Horta trying to get the boat ready, it was finally time to leave again. The weather forecast wasn’t exactly ideal. Good wind for one day, then basically no wind for two days before it would finally pick up again and push me toward France. I could have waited a few more days for better conditions… but honestly, I just wanted to get moving again. So I left. And once again, I’m sailing solo. Gabi has left, so it’s just me and the boat again. Getting ready was stressful, as always. There’s always one more thing to fix, one more thing that suddenly becomes important before departure. This time it was the anchor stay that needed sorting, which delayed things a couple more days. But eventually everything was ready enough, and at some point you just have to go. I started by tacking upwind between the islands so I could stay sheltered through the night. And honestly… it was pretty chill. Once I got past the islands, the wind became stable, the boat settled, and we were moving at a decent pace in a decent direction. It was calm enough that I could actually rest properly, just getting up every now and then to check things since the boat was wandering a little bit back and forth. But nothing dramatic. And the day just turned into a really nice start to the trip. I made amazing food, enjoyed the sailing, and honestly just felt really happy to be out here alone again. It felt good to be back. 🌊 ⚓ 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.

The NEW C-Cat 65 is one of the Stars of the Show at Cannes this year. The builder, 🇮🇹 Comar Yachts have over fifty years of boatbuilding heritage and thousands of yachts built, many of which have distinguished themselves on racing circuits worldwide. ▫️ The world class team behind this luxury performance catamaran includes Enrico Contreas, known for his high-performance multihull designs; Marco Amadio and his design studio; Naval Design for structural calculations, FEM verifications, and CFD simulations; and, of course Comar Yachts’ technical office.  ▫️ Carbon: Where It Matters Most ▫️ A full carbon deck reduces weight aloft and lowers the center of gravity. ▫️ Carbon daggerboards: ultra-light and strong, delivering superior upwind performance. ▫️ Carbon Crossbeam, bowsprit, bulkheads, and structural parts to ensure torsional rigidity and precise handling in the most demanding sailing conditions. ▫️ A pre-preg carbon mast built in house for lightness, strength, and control. ▫️ The hulls are built from a carbon-glass composite, offering a balance of stiffness, lightweight performance, and durability under stress. ▫️ The C▫️-Cat 65 is built using a double-cut Corecell sandwich infused with epoxy resin through a vacuum infusion processes for a market leading weight-to-stiffness ratio, minimized material waste, and structural consistency. ▫️ The bulkheads, longitudinal beam, and structural elements are both bonded and tabbed; even the furniture contributes to overall rigidity, ensuring long-term durability and strength. ▫️ The reverse rake carbon coachroof with inverted windows offers excellent visibility with reduced solar glare and they keep solar heat out of the interiors ▫️ #multihulls #boatshow #catamaran @c-catamarans3865
