In August of 2017 I sold everything and moved aboard Balachandra, a 1986 C&C44 sailboat, then sailed it over 300 nautical miles to Halifax Nova Scotia to spend a cold Canadian winter in the frozen waters of the North Atlantic. Sailing Balachandra is my YouTube sailing vlog inspired by other great channels such as Delos and La Vagabonde, which documents the sailing adventures of myself and the occasional crewmembers(s) as we navigate the east coast of North America and beyond. I also dive into lots of DIY boat projects both above and below decks, and share with you all of the pros and cons of living aboard in a cold climate.Sailing Balachandra is published weekly so please subscribe so you don't miss out on future videos!

Black iron tanks were standard on a lot of early Asian built boats, and pulling them means cutting metal out in pieces. Swapping to PEX and plastic tanks is cheaper and more approachable than buyers expect. Budget for a replumb and treat it as a job you plan for. 📗 Get My Book: https://bethecaptain.com

Navigatrice britannique née en 1974, Samantha Davies est l’une des figures les plus inspirantes de la course au large. Elle se révèle au grand public lors du Vendée Globe 2008-2009, en terminant à la 4ᵉ place, seule à la barre de son voilier sur un tour du monde sans escale ni assistance. Mais c’est en 2020 qu’elle marque les esprits d’une manière encore plus forte : lors du Vendée Globe, elle heurte un OFNI (objet flottant non identifié) au large du Cap de Bonne-Espérance, endommageant gravement son voilier Initiatives-Cœur. Forcée d’abandonner officiellement la course, elle refuse pourtant de renoncer. Après des réparations au Cap, elle reprend la mer, seule, et boucle hors course le tour du monde — pour tenir sa promesse, pour elle-même, et surtout pour continuer à soutenir l’association Mécénat Chirurgie Cardiaque, qui lui tient tant à cœur. Un acte de courage et d’engagement qui montre que l’esprit marin, ce n’est pas seulement franchir une ligne d’arrivée, mais garder le cap, même quand tout semble perdu. #SamanthaDavies #Voile #VendéeGlobe #femmesfortes #navigation #courseaularge #Inspirante #ocean #Aventure
