Here we are rigging a reef line while underway. We had swapped the laminate main sail out for the Dacron main sail before leaving the dock, because it was quite windy and the Dacron sail is more robust. But we didn't rig the second reef line properly and had to pull it out in order to raise the sail. So here we are sailing under the first reef, while I climbed onto the boom to re-rig the second reef. I’m wearing a climbing harness attached to the spinnaker halyard for safety.

We had just finished installing our Auto Pilot and took her out so we could do the calibrations. Well, while we were out, we couldn't help but take her for a "spin" - please forgive the expletive at the end, I just couldn't contain myself! If you enjoyed the video, please give it a thumbs up! Subscribe at http://youtube.com/svrocinante We're a Live-aboard, Sailing Couple and we started this journey almost 14 years ago, when we purchased our first sailboat, a Catalina 30 TRBS in 2003! A lot has changed since then and we hope to share our ongoing adventure with the world! As we start to add content, you'll find that this is much more than a sailing channel, it is about embracing life & finding out how little you need to be truly happy! We'll share beautiful sunsets, gorgeous vistas, amazing food and most importantly the exceptional people we meet along the way.

Ci svegliamo con il sole riflesso dal mare sulla nostra testa. Non ci abitueremo mai a quel disegno imprevedibile che si muove sempre veloce su di noi al mattino. Una meraviglia preziosa. Colazione al volo e subito al lavoro, le attività di lavoro chiamano! Ci mettiamo al pc e tiriamo righe nere sulla lista di attività da smarcare. Che soddisfazione! Un pranzo con vista e poi si riprende. Finiamo di lavorare e ci dedichiamo alla lezione di vela di questa sera - I fondamentali della vela: partiamo dall’inizio. Concluse le due ore sentiamo quattro nostri carissimi amici che si sono trovati per una cena ♥️ la prossima tutti insieme!! Arriviamo ragazzi 😘 Una giornata di sole: dentro e fuori ☀️ Canzone splendida del grande @lorenzojova
