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.

This is our road trip to Deans Blue Hole. We spent about 4 nights down in Long Island at Thompson Bay before we had to return to George Town in anticipation of a weather event coming with west winds. Suggested by another fellow cruiser while at Tiny's Bar and Grill, we rented a car from Seaside Car Rental. It was $75 for the day. Well worth the money, we had a blast. This is the first of several stops we made. It took about 45 minutes, perhaps a bit more, to get to Deans Blue Hole. At 663 feet deep, you can't really see much down below 20 feet or so. Further, the water seemed to be a little stirred up today from the waves of the Atlantic. That said, it was very cool to see. I can't imagine freediving something like that! #sailingcatamaran #boatlife #catamaran #travelvlog #digitalnomad #lifestyle #sailboats #sailing #cruising #offgrid #nomad #sail #boat #multihull #whileone #sailingwhileone #bigseas #lifeafter50 #sailinglife
