La giornata comincia blu, come gli scorsi giorni. La differenza è quel leggero rollio che viene sottolineato da qualsiasi cosa sia appesa in barca. Ci svegliamo, facciamo colazione e aspettiamo il vento. Oggi è martedì. Qualsiasi applicazione meteo dice che entrerà aria tesa. Dopo colazione il cielo si incupisce, nuvole scure si avvicinano verso di noi e, così, decidiamo di prevenire prendendo la seconda mano di terzaroli. Cosa vuol dire? Significa ridurre la superficie di vela esposta all’aria. Quando il vento aumenta è importante regolare le vele al fine di non farsi trovare troppo invelati. E così, facciamo. Prendiamo la seconda mano. Come da programmi, il vento si presenta puntuale, in compagnia di un po’ di pioggia non invitata. Ma per fortuna, lei resta per poco. L’aria invece no. Un fresco vento al traverso ci fa galoppare verso le Azzorre. Julia vola, si toglie di dosso tutte le miglia in cui ha tenuto le ali riposte in attesa di queste condizioni. Da previsioni questa pressione sulle vele dovrebbe accompagnarci per un po’ di giorni e noi, con un gran sorriso, le diamo il benvenuto a bordo. Un motore gratuito che riesce a vincere a mani basse contro lo scoppio rombante di un motore diesel da 100 cavalli. Avanti tutta Julia, corriamo insieme verso la meta. Andrea

Cerca del Parque Nacional Das Illas Atlánticas, concretamente en las Islas Cíes, nos encontramos navegando a la par con otro velero con el cual llevamos una velocidad semejante. Como no nos gusta perder ni a las canicas, éste es un aliciente para trimar a tope nuestras velas. Ceñir es de pobres, pero cómo mola ceñir. Además, rizar es de cobardes.

Facing the challenges of solo sailing as a female sailor, I navigated the highs and lows of single-handed sailing while tackling DIY boat repair projects, from engine fixes to full boat refits on a budget. My life aboard was a mix of adventure and reflection, shaping an independent woman’s story of resilience, personal growth, and embracing the sailing lifestyle. Along the way, I became an ocean conservation activist with In Mocean, stumbled across my dog Boga, and discovered the joys and challenges of sailing with a dog. Now, I’m exploring a new chapter, having jumped aboard my partner’s Hallberg Rassy Rasmus with Boga and his Australian Kelpie, Jango. Together, we face the unique dynamics and challenges of sailing as a couple, balancing off-grid life, sustainable sailing, and the demands of long-term cruising. If you’re interested in remote sailing adventures, authentic sailing stories, and the realities of living on a sailboat, this channel offers a glimpse into the world of DIY projects, the sailing lifestyle, and life’s transformative moments on the water. Follow along for inspiring stories that reflect on the beauty of sailing, personal growth, and chasing dreams—one wave at a time.
