Even if you're going out solo, don't go boating alone! Tell a trusted friend or family member know where you're going and what time you expect to be back. You might know this as "filing a float plan," but you don't need anything formal. It can be as simple as texting or emailing someone with your whereabouts, what time you expect to get home, and who to call if you're not back within a reasonable window of time. 🚩Enjoy this video?

https://youtu.be/WDxAz5YWWbw?si=_-_un7FU9ukXLuBH In this episode, we set sail on a major milestone—our first offshore passage, leaving mainland Spain behind as we head toward the legendary island of Ibiza aboard our Lagoon 440 catamaran, KAIA. With perfect weather, calm seas, and a full day of sailing ahead, we embrace the freedom of life offshore and soak in every magical moment, including a close pass by the mystical rock formation of Es Vedrà. We anchor in secluded bays, take our pups Indy, Cooper, and Brooklyn ashore via dinghy, and even squeeze in a spontaneous detour to Formentera, often called the Maldives of the Med. After riding out a surprise storm, we explore the vibrant heart of Ibiza Town, climb the ancient walls of Dalt Vila, and reconnect with friends inland in Sant Josep. From peaceful sailing days to weathering rough anchorages, this week was packed with unforgettable firsts—and it’s only the beginning. Join us for adventure, discovery, and the real rhythm of life at sea. #SailingKaia #SailingIbiza #OffshorePassage #Formentera #SailingLife #LiveaboardLife #SailingCouple Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe to follow our journey as we sail sacred seas! 👍🏼👌🏼 Thanks for your support ❤️ Link in bio or search YouTube for ‘Sailing Sacred Seas’ – let’s set sail together! ⚓💙 We hope that you will follow us on insta, Facebook and YouTube - SAILING SACRED SEAS #sailing #yacht #cruiser #sailingboat #travel #wanderlust #nature #adventure #boatlife #lagoon440 #lagooncatamaran #sailingyoutube #catamaran
