A New Top Speed for the SP80 team trying to beat the World Sailing Speed Record! What was it? Watch the reel to find out. ▫️ Join the quest at @sp80record ▫️ "The foil is key to breaking the record" - explains Benoît Gaudiot, COO and SP80 kite pilot. “We wanted to quickly test a simplified version on the water and learn as much as possible before finalizing the design of the record foil, which is more complex and costly to produce."  ▫️ "Now that we have data from the boat at high speeds, we can refine our simulations and launch the production of the final foil with much more information than we had a few months ago!” ▫️ The boat will return to the shipyard in September to improve safety systems around the pilots and integrate the new foil. The initial goal is to break the 55-knot barrier (100 km/h) between October and December. ▫️ The team aims to make an first official record attempt before the summer of 2025. ▫️ #world #sailing #speed #record

A very ROUGH draft of my upcoming book!! I am working on my new book; A Girl & Her Bus Named Bubba--An Unconventional Love Story. My upcoming book is a series of short stories about living in a short bus for 2.5 years, discovering America and myself in the process. I thought I would share my creative process here--as it is one of the ways I make money as a nomad, especially while living on a sailboat. If you dig this journey, I would love you to follow along.

A friendly little seal pop up to say hello to the crew and guests of Moonshadow Yacht Charters, off the Isle of Mingulay, Scotland. Scotland offers sailing as it should be… there’s space and freedom. And the choice to do a lot – or do next to nothing – in this spectacular setting. It’s uncrowded and unspoilt, and life here moves at a different pace. People come specially to see basking sharks, puffins, seals, dolphins and eagles. They sail. They walk along beaches and coastal paths, explore local history and photograph their surrounds. They eat fresh seafood at stylish cafes and vibrant marinas. They enjoy the friendly traditional pubs. They browse shops in bustling coastal towns and villages. They picnic on beaches that are near-deserted, even in the height of summer. Or just sit and watch the tides, the sunsets and the stars.
