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. 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
