We're finally sailing! Without any official sailing school lessons or courses, we have been teaching ourselves how to sail. We both started from zero without any sailing experience when we bought Ujud. Over the time of ownership, reaching this point has been a relatively slow process in comparison to the many sailors we encounter in person. We live aboard our small sailboat and it's taken time to gain confidence about the very many things that sailing involves. It's nice for future us to be able to look back to today's achievement as a couple, we are sailing with both the mainsail and the Genoa. Both sails are reefed down so that we're not overpowered. Our teachers have been: Petr Šimon Jana Šimonová James Khoo Wan Azuar Bill Robinson AU Wei Eric Oh #24hourtravellers #selftaughtsailors #sailingcouples #sailboats #hallbergrassymonsun31 #boatlife #sailMalaysWe're finally sailing!

Oggi fortunatamente è una giornata senza colpi di scena. Lavoriamo, risolviamo un mega problema legato alla scelta della boccola (anche grazie all’aiuto telematico del buon Alessio) e iniziamo a sistemare la barca. Onestamente iniziamo a sentire davvero la voglia di trovare una casa, accendere il pc in uno studio semi vuoto dal trasloco e pensare unicamente alle lavorazioni del giorno. Siamo ormai abituati ai micro piovaschi di queste parti. Praticamente c’è il sole, ci sono 35 gradi, hai la crema solare e cerchi l’ombra per lavorare in pace. Pochi secondi più tardi è buio, le nubi coprono tutto il cielo, l’acqua scende come se fossimo sotto a una cascata, e tu corri dentro con pc e pochi oggetti che riesci a salvare. 4 minuti dopo circa, torna il sole ed è di nuovo estate. Così per tutta la mattinata 🤣 Verso sera facciamo una call con l’equipaggio! Mancava solo Claudio, il papà di Andrea, per essere al completo. Tra presentazioni di chi non conosceva gli altri e indicazioni tecniche su cosa mettere nello zaino (dovete sapere che in barca trolley e borsoni rigidi sono VIETATI) trascorriamo la prima mezz’oretta insieme. Chissà quante altre “mezz’orette” da qui alle Azzorre. 2200 miglia. Ci siamo quasi 💪
