This is definitely the Calm Before the Storm! We made our way to Marsh Harbour early this morning to hopefully find a good anchorage in anticipation of the weekend's big blow. Forecasted to be in upwards of 60kn, it's at least 20kn more than we've experienced. That's a LOT OF WIND! Suffice it to say, Marsh Harbour wasn't vacant. We were able to find, what we hope to be, a nice hole between some sailboats. To our aft are the folks from Sailing Zephyr...very cool. Anyways, we're confident in our ground tackle but you always have to worry about other boats dragging. Our anchor is a Spade 160 and is oversized for our boat...that said, if there's an abrupt wind shift of 180º, all anchors will have to reset themselves. This is definitely the Calm Before the Storm

Sailing during the winter in the Mediterranean Sea is truly a remarkable experience. The sea is heavy, and the breeze is just the right amount to make you feel alive. But it's a time when you can truly disconnect from the world and connect with nature. Being out on the water can be a humbling experience. It reminds us that we are just a small part of this vast universe. The water, the wind, and the sky all work together in harmony to create this stunning scenery that we get to witness. It's a reminder that we should take care of our planet and the environment we live in. Sailing is not just a hobby; it's a way of life. It teaches us to be patient, to work together, and to appreciate the little things in life. It's a sport that connects people from all walks of life and brings them together to share their passion. So next time you're feeling stressed or overwhelmed, take some time off and go sailing. Let the sea heal your soul and rejuvenate your spirit. You won't regret it. ………….. Naviguer en hiver en Méditerranée est une expérience hors du temps. La mer est forte et la brise vous permet de vous sentir vivant. N’est-ce pas l’idéal pour véritablement se déconnecter du monde et se connecter avec la nature ? Être sur l’eau peut être une expérience qui nous rappelle que nous ne sommes qu'une petite partie d’un vaste univers. L’eau, le vent et le ciel créent des paysages époustouflants qui nous rappelle de prendre soin de notre planète et de l'environnement dans lequel nous vivons et accomplissons nos passions. La voile n'est pas seulement un passe-temps ; c'est une manière de vivre. Cela nous apprend à être patients, à travailler ensemble et à apprécier chaque moment de la vie. C'est un sport qui connecte des gens de tous horizons et les rassemble pour partager leur passion commune. Alors la prochaine fois que vous vous sentirez stressé ou dépassé, prenez un peu de temps et partez naviguer. Laissez la mer prendre soin de votre âme et revigorer votre esprit. Vous ne le regretterez pas. #windelo #windelo50 #windelo54 #sailing #NewWindelo50 #windelo54 #windelocatamaran #windelospotting #windeloadventure #sailingadventure #sailingdream

Vela was out of the water at 10:45, we started removing the leaky thru hull at 11:48, and by 13:40, the new thru hull was in place. Now, we’ve been waiting approx for 3 hours for the epoxy to cure so we can apply a couple of layers of primer! And tomorrow some antifouling 🎨 SUPER EFFICIENT! What do you think? We’re glad we had done this 14 times before tackling this thru hull with limited time. We’re happy to offer tips and guidance if you need it! Just send us a DM 😋 #sail #sailboat #sailing #jordomsejling #circumnavigation #båd #sejl #sejlbåd #sejler #sailboat #shortoftheday
