We’re Dani & Asher, two Kiwi’s who after spending 5 years living in London, decided to head home the slow way. We bought a 36 foot sailing boat called Bacchus, built a rowing and sailing dinghy Pīwakawaka and headed towards the horizon. We’ve sailed the south coast of England, the Atlantic coasts of France, Spain and Portugal, the Canary Islands and after a looooong trip across the Atlantic Ocean we ended up in the Caribbean. We free-dived with turtles, hiked volcanoes and had a blast on the coco palm lined, white sandy beaches before the unexpected happened. The world was hit by a pandemic. We’ve made it as far as Panama, the half-way mark on our journey home and we’re not entirely sure what happens next. We may get home this year, or maybe it will be next but we are Sailing Bacchus Home ⛵️ Music: www.bensound.com

Tras una virada estamos cazando la vela y de repente ¡Zas! La vela foque se parte de proa a popa a mitad de altura. La tripulación no ha cometido ningún error, pero las cosas son así. Realmente estábamos teniendo 34 nudos de intensidad y quizás la vela tenía alguna debilitación. Son siete años ya y de un uso de alto rendimiento. No te puedes perder este domingo el vídeo completo en mi canal de Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@sailingtxemacapitan/videos . Es un vídeo especialmente bueno.

As we expected during our Winter stay in Turkey, there would be storms. We are currently sailing our way South to see as much of the coast as possible. Stopping at a place called Kakova Road we have found a bay to anchor tight for the next 3 days due to a nasty frontal system making its way around the area. Rain, Thunder storms and winds to 35knts (65km/h) . Life on board can be quite uncomfortable in these conditions with rolling swells rocking the yacht side to side causing endless bangs and crashes of lines and equipment being thrown about not to mention the howling sounds the rigging makes in even moderate winds. WE make do with games, music and family time until the weather clears for sailing again.Be sure to check back here for location and track updates https://freedomfamily.nz/locations/where-are-we-now/ --------------------------------------------------- Please consider becoming a Member Supporter and hit the JOIN button.. or just LIKE & SUBSCRIBE!
