A common expression heard among sailors in Colorado: "If you can sail here, you can sail anywhere!" I'd say it's primarily due to the quick-changing mountain weather and heavy winds that come up without warning. But the constantly swirling winds, steep mountain terrain, cold water, limited facilities, and lack of depth charts and hazard markings also make it a challenging place to sail. Several notable sailors hail from Colorado including world champion sailor Cameron Holland, Olympic competitors Chris Steinfeld, Erika Reineke, Sarah Ragle and Jack & Marcia Mathias and three-time America's Cup winner Josh Belsky (born in Rye, NY but relocated to Aspen, CO in 2008). Colorado is also home to the world's highest regatta, the Dillon Open Regatta held every August. Music: "Broken Bones" by Love Inc.

Check out our latest video for the full story! In this week's video we share how we danced a sailing tango with the Mistral and went back and forth to try to get somewhere, anywhere at all on our Outremer 52 sailing catamaran. We get rain and 42 knot winds and visit lovely Port Grimaud and Saint-Tropez. ⚓ Join us as we learn what it takes to circumnavigate successfully and make the transition to liveaboard cruising. 🆓Our sailing channel is currently AD-FREE but there are other ways you can support our Outremer 52 project. 👍🏻 Like, subscribe, share our YouTube videos or check out our blog, podcast or social pages below ⭐️Check out our new catamaran sailing blog! https://sailingawen.com 🎧COVERTCASTAWAY PODCAST anywhere you listen or stream directly at https://sailingawen.com/podcast INSTAGRAM: https://www.instagram.com/sailingawen/ FACEBOOK: https://www.facebook.com/SailingAwen/ FACEBOOK GROUP: https://www.facebook.com/groups/sailingawen/ 📧EMAIL US: sailingawen@gmail.com 🌎TRACK US at https://www.polarsteps.com/SailingAwen ⛵️AWEN will be featured at the MIAMI BOAT SHOW!

We are Holly and Stephane 🇺🇸🇫🇷 We have made the transition from full-time software professionals from the SF Bay Area to liveaboard sailing explorers who always keep one eye on the weather and our hearts in a song. Our goal is to complete a circumnavigation and we recently transitioned to a performance catamaran and are madly in love with our Outremer 52. We are working with Outremer in France (with the help of Google translate) to launch our boat project and start our journey as sailing vagabonds. While it’s not a race or speedtest, we are doing our first Bluewater crossing this year and we are excited to see AWEN stretch her legs and dance on the water. Join us as we share what we’re learning living without Amazon, (but with Starlink), and attempt this new life of travel and adventure on the ocean. Please be patient with us as we continue to improve our YouTube vlogging skills. Our goal isn’t to make our life a movie, it’s to give back to what others have shared with us, which is why we don’t monetize our channel.
