Our 40 day, 5555 NM crossing of the Atlantic is just about done. We expect to arrive in Grenada just after midnight on the morning of the 29th. We were able to visit the island of St Helena for 3 days and the island of Fernando de Noronha for 2 days, but otherwise it’s been eat, sleep, sail, repeat. We’ve been on every point of sail and used every sail in our inventory EXCEPT the storm sail. We’ll do a recap soon, but we just wanted to send out a quick highlight. Want more?

It’s a mix of emotions — most of the fleet is behind you, but three yachts are still ahead, and with the finish line fast approaching, there’s no time left to catch them. Which means no podium finish this time. It was a 15-mile offshore race from Rogoznica’s Marina Frapa to Maslenica, on the island of Šolta, Croatia. As the race unfolded, the wind intensified to over 24 knots, with gusts hitting 32. After two teams lost their gennakers, the race committee issued a safety ban on their further use. #PAPARegatta #PAPARegatta2021 #SailingRace #TheArtOfSailing

We've been having the bathroom in our condo redone, and what we expected would be two nights aboard Intention has turned into almost two weeks. WE ARE THRILLED!! We are learning what it's like to ACTUALLY live aboard our amazing boat, and do that we are really impressed! We were getting low on diesel and our holding tank was probably about two-thirds full, so we motored over to Van Isle Marina to fuel up and pump out. As we were leaving Tsehum Harbour, the Sun was shining and there was around 10 knots of wind. OF COURSE we went sailing!!
