Just as we were about to set sail here in Greece from the island Poros, our wind sensor suddenly stopped working. No wind direction, no wind speed. Not ideal when you're navigating open waters. Maybe it had been a bird? Or sun and salt damage? Or just one strong gust too many. Whatever the cause, I had to climb up the mast, attached to a line and helped with a winch. And ofcourse the new windmeter! So up I went — 22 meters high at the top of our catamaran’s mast and the camera rolling! I filmed the whole thing. Because this moment captures what it means to be a Digital Nomad: 🔹 Being ready to improvise 🔹 Making decisions to set clear couse again 🔹 Trusting your preparation, your partner and yourself 🔹 And staying calm, even with a shaky view ➡️ Want to see what it looks like up the mast, installing a new windmeter? 📹 Watch the video!

The skipper on GTR is a little too casual going into a gybe resulting in a massive wipe out that nearly took his head off. While the wind is light, just below 10 knots, the boom on this Mumm 36 racing yacht still gets up too a fast speed with plenty of power as the boom moves from one side of the boat to the the other. The mistake made by the skipper was not getting setup correctly for the gybe. The running back stay was not correctly setup outside the boom prior to the Gybe. The skipper was too worried about fixing this, failed to do so, which result in in both the back stay and the main sheet getting wrapped around his neck which in turn picked him up and deposited him down to leeward after the gybe was completed. The skipper was OK after the wipe out, he regained his breath, the bruised ribs healed in time as did his pride.

😱CAMBIA TUTTO! E adesso che abbiamo lasciato la barca, cosa facciamo? ⛵️Abbiamo completato il nostro giro dell’Italia in barca a vela ed è stata un'esperienza meravigliosa. 🤔Ma è giunto il momento di cambiare di nuovo rotta. Dove vivremo? Come vivremo? Cosa faremo? E il lavoro? E i progetti futuri? 🤗Vi aspetto domani mattina alle 10 su YouTube con un video in cui rispondo a tutte queste domande.

The Causeway bridge connects the Dutch side of St. Maarten, to the French side of St. Martin. The bridge was officially opened in 2008 and spans a length of approximately 3.5 km. The bridge is frequently used by tourists and locals as a scenic drive as it offers stunning views of the Lagoon and surrounding areas. I think boaters, however, get the best view, don't you? #sailinglife #boatlife #livingthedream
