It has been a very long time since my brothers and I all went sailing. This was the perfect day with gusty winds that forced us to put two reefs in. We sailed the Hooper Island Lighthouse run and made it back no worse for the wear. And none of us got in trouble . . . , at least not that we know of. Subscribe and share the adventure!

While sailing in the British Virgin Islands, we doubled our speed over ground by switching out our headsail (from jib to gennaker). Crew morale was high! 😍⛵️ #sailing #sailingaroundtheworld #catamaran #liveaboard #caribbean #britishvirginislands #sailingvideo #sailingcouple #lagooncatamaran
I giorni passano veloci, ma mai veloci quanti Julia su questo oceano così maestoso. Ormai le miglia diminuiscono in un modo più tangibile, vedere 300, poi 200 miglia all’arrivo è molto diverso che leggere 1500 e poi 1400. Sentiamo il profumo di terra. Oggi abbiamo letto tutte le informazioni su Horta e sull’isola di Fajas, prima tappa che faremo alle Azzorre. C’è fermento nell’aria. Tanta voglia di visitare, esplorare, scoprire quel verde così unico al mondo che solo alle Azzorre si presenta così rigoglioso, ma altrettanto piacere nel navigare così. La barca sembra ormai essersi tolta di dosso la fatica, aver spezzato il fiato come si dice in gergo podistico. Corre senza farcelo sentire, come un cavallo libero nella prateria che non sente il peso del suo cavaliere. Raggiungiamo i 9 nodi, la prua fende l’acqua come una lama nel burro e, ogni tanto, infila il naso nel mare per rinfrescarsi un po’. Dettaglio non trascurabile: siamo passati da 31,2 gradi di temperatura dell’acqua del mare a 21.5. E si sentono tutti! L’aria è frizzante, gli spruzzi del mare taglienti. Meno male che ci aspetta l’estate e non l’inverno. Passare dal calore caraibico ai ghiacci alpini sarebbe stato troppo drastico. Udite udite: domani si pronostica l’arrivo. In serata. Speriamo non in notturna per non avvistare luci anziché terra. Staremo a vedere! Ci leggiamo domani con una prevista emozione addosso a livello mille! A domani, Andrea
-- About BENETEAU -- The first BENETEAU boats sailed from the shipyards of Croix-de-Vie over 135 years ago. Since that time, the BENETEAU brand has been synonymous with quality and innovation to all those who have taken to the water – first by the fishermen who made their livelihood from the sea and then by the legions of recreational boaters around the globe. Over the years, our commitment to innovating and embracing ideas, no matter how unconventional, has been at the forefront of who we are in order to bring you the best boat possible. BENETEAU was one of the first boatbuilders many years ago to use computer-aided design (CAD) as well as lighter, stronger composite building materials. We’ve also been at the cutting edge of using greener materials and processes to do our part in protecting the incredible world which we explore. However, all this innovation doesn’t mean we’ve turned our back on tradition. One thing we’ve discovered in over a century of boatbuilding is that new-world innovations work best with old-school craftsmanship. This combination has resulted in some of the most iconic sailboats and powerboats in the world – supremely seaworthy yachts renowned for their sense of style, luxury, and comfort along with their creative use of space and new technologies. -- Philosophy -- We’re a lot like you. We love the water in all its forms – the ocean, bays, lakes, and rivers. And we love sharing the boating lifestyle with our family and friends. This love manifests itself in every BENETEAU built in any one of our many manufacturing facilities worldwide. Every BENETEAU sailboat and powerboat on the water reflects the best efforts of the finest architects, designers, and craftsmen along with the highest quality materials and the latest innovations. When you purchase a BENETEAU, you become a valued member of our BENETEAU family. For this reason, our after-sale service is second to none as evidenced by the multitude of National Marine Manufacturers CSI Awards for Excellence in Customer Service. At the core of this outstanding service is our exceptional dealer network. Every one of our authorized BENETEAU dealers will be there for you – from choosing the right yacht to the handover and beyond. Your dealer will be your able guide when it comes to maintaining your boat properly and will help you maximize the return on your investment when it comes time to step up to another BENETEAU – and it usually does! We wouldn’t have it any other way.
