This video illustrates the force of the wind while on a close hauled/close reach with one reef in the main and 2/3 of the Genoa out in 17 knots of wind with 23 knot gusts. Our speed over ground last week ranged from a comfortable 6.5 knots to 12.5 knots. As you may know, the Lagoon 450 is well known for its capability to sail in low wind and down wind. We also realized the 450's ability to provide a controlled and comfortable “banging up wind” experience during our 21 day trip around the BVIs.

We went to take our sailboat out the Ft Pierce Inlet for our second time for a shakedown sail. We had sail issues so we had to come back into the inlet with an outgoing tide and incoming east wind. We did not know that combination made the inlet rough as we are new to inlet currents and tides. Made for a fun surfing ride back into the inlet.

Uno de los alimentos de este viaje a bordo de La Sonámbula, es el coco!!!🥥 🌴 Y lo mejor de todo, es el ritual que seguimos a cabo: vamos a la isla a cogerlos, nos vamos al barco, ponemos un cojín con toalla para no dañar la teka del barco, y a machetazo limpio, Miguel consigue abrirlos!😂 Guardamos el agua, y empezamos a comer la pulpa, que de vez en cuando, viene más dura, y la utilizamos para cocinar!😛 Aquí, parecemos supervivientes, pero en nuestras casas nos enseñaron, que la comida, no se tira!!😛 . . . #sail #sailing #sailing_lasonambula #velero #catamaran #sailboat #paradise #caribe #carib #navegaravela #navegarporelmundo #travel #sailingaroundtheworld #playasnorkeling #paradiseawaits #viento #vela #sails #cocos #anchor #barco #barcos #navega #anchors #atlantic #coconut
