Sailing through up to 38 knots and 4 metre seas, this journey put the boat to a real test. Even with a small crew onboard, it remained easy to handle, comfortable to live on, and confidence-inspiring throughout. Hear the experience from life onboard. #SeawindCatamarans #Seawind1170 #BluewaterCruising

International market for boats. Good prices abroad. How do you benefit? What are the risks? How do you buy or sell a boat internationally? Today at Sailing Maja we got a visit from the International Yacht Broker Rune Riktor at  ⁨@skippernyachts⁩  In this interview he tell us all about international trade for boats and yachts, commercial boats and fishing boat. What are the rules? What are the risks? Why should you use a broker, and when should you use a surveyor? In this video, Rune offers essential business advice for navigating the complexities of selling boats across borders. He highlights the significant risks and opportunities within the marine industry, emphasizing the importance of legal compliance. Understanding international shipping and potentially working with a customs broker are crucial steps for successful border crossing. This episode is very interesting for European buyer and seller as we speak a lot of EU VAT and EU regulations. Do you know the difference between EU Class A and EU Class B? What do you do if you boat is not manufactured in the European Union? Who is responsible for VAT and who knows all the paperwork you need to show? This interview is a conversation between Rune Riktor as the CEO of Skippern Yachts and Jarle "Charlie" Karlsrud, the skipper of the Nauticat 38, Maja. https://sailing-maja.com/ Disclaimer: Jarle Karlsrud has just begun working with Skippern Yachts, and Rune Riktor is his manager.

A Seawind 1260 Circumnavigation A story from the first owner of the Seawind 1260 can inspire every sailor who hasn't yet clocked years of offshore experience. Will you see yourself in their story? Klaus and Andrea didn’t grow up crossing oceans. Before taking delivery of their Seawind 1260 in Vietnam in 2022, their sailing background was limited to short seasonal trips. Yet they made a bold decision: set sail around the world and place their trust in a vessel designed to be a silent partner through every learning curve. They weren’t the most experienced sailors in the anchorage. What they had was preparation, persistence, teamwork, and the ultimate confidence in the platform beneath them. This is not “fun in the sun” cruising. This is real bluewater sailing and a reminder that you don’t need to be born an ocean sailor to become one when you have a boat that supports your ambition. If you’ve been dreaming about offshore passages but questioning whether you’re ready enough, this story might be the perspective you need. It proves that with the right partner on the water, the transition from coastal dreamer to global explorer is within your reach. 🔔 Subscribe and be part of the journey. 🌐 https://seawindcats.com/ 📩 info@seawindcats.com Our social media profiles: https://www.facebook.com/SeawindCatamarans https://www.instagram.com/seawindcats

La nostra Rebecca Geiger faccia a faccia con Jimmy Spithill, una bella chiacchierata passeggiando lungo le banchine della Red Bull Sailing Academy a Marina Monfalcone. Il tema dell'intervista? La vela, a 360°, la Coppa il SailGO, le classi olimpiche ma, soprattutto, il futuro. Come si diventa campioni? Jimmy spiega, a cuore aperto, la sua "formula" a Rebecca. L'australiano per molti anni è stato uno degli skipper simbolo della America’s Cup, protagonista di alcune delle sfide più iconiche della storia recente della Coppa: dalla vittoria del 2010 fino alla leggendaria rimonta del 2013 con Oracle Team USA, fino all’avventura con Luna Rossa. Oggi il suo ruolo è cambiato, ma il suo peso nel mondo della vela resta centrale. Spithill è infatti CEO del Red Bull Italy SailGP Team, il nuovo progetto che punta a portare l’Italia tra i protagonisti del circuito internazionale SailGP, uno dei format più innovativi e spettacolari della vela moderna.

In the harbor of Karlovasi at Samos, when we turned our back to the see, we looked at a high hill with a beautiful church. However, it was quite difficult to get there with our bike and scooter. Luckily—long live the drone—it can take a look almost anywhere 😉 It turned out to be the Church of the Holy Trinity, beautifully positioned on an elevated location above the port. Its prominent hilltop setting offers excellent panoramic views.

TEKNE TASARIMINDA SIRADIŞI ÇİZGİLERE SAHİP BİR OKADAR LÜX Tekne Tatili Nedir? Tekne Tatilinin Psikolojik Etkileri Deniz, insan psikolojisi üzerinde oldukça olumlu etkilere sahiptir. Tekne tatili sırasında şehir hayatının stresinden uzaklaşarak zihinsel olarak rahatlama sağlanır. Dalga sesleri, temiz hava ve doğa ile iç içe olmak, stres seviyesini düşürür ve mutluluk hissini artırır. Ayrıca teknolojiden uzak bir tatil geçirmek, zihinsel detoks etkisi yaratır. Bu da kişinin kendini yenilemesine yardımcı olur. Tekne tatili; bir yat, motoryat ya da yelkenli tekne ile belirli bir rota üzerinde seyahat ederek geçirilen tatil türüdür. Bu tatil, genellikle haftalık ya da günlük kiralamalarla yapılır. İster kaptanlı ister kaptansız seçeneklerle sunulan bu deneyim, kişisel tercihlere göre şekillendirilebilir. Kimi insanlar için tekne tatili lüks bir kaçamakken, kimileri için doğayla bütünleşmenin en saf halidir. Sabah gözünüzü turkuaz bir koyda açmak, gün boyu denizin tadını çıkarmak ve akşamları yıldızların altında uyumak bu tatilin en büyüleyici yanlarından sadece birkaçıdır. Neden Tekne Tatili Tercih Edilmeli? Tekne tatilinin en büyük avantajı özgürlüktür. Otel tatillerinde belirli kurallara ve programlara bağlı kalırken, teknede tamamen kendi planınızı oluşturabilirsiniz. İstediğiniz koyda durabilir, istediğiniz kadar yüzebilir ve rotanızı dilediğiniz gibi değiştirebilirsiniz. Tekne Tatilinin Avantajları Tekne tatilinin sunduğu avantajlar oldukça fazladır: Mahremiyet: Sadece sevdiklerinizle vakit geçirirsiniz. Kalabalık yoktur. Özgürlük: Program tamamen size aittir. Doğayla İç İçe Olma: Gürültüden uzak, sakin bir ortamda dinlenirsiniz. Farklı Deneyimler: Her gün farklı bir koy keşfedersiniz. Lüks ve Konfor: Modern tekneler otel konforunu aratmaz. Tekne Tatili Türleri Tekne tatili farklı şekillerde yapılabilir. En yaygın türler şunlardır: 1. Motoryat Tatili: Hız ve konforun birleştiği bu tatil türü, kısa sürede daha fazla yer görmek isteyenler için idealdir. Lüks donanımlarıyla dikkat çeker. 2. Yelkenli Tatili: Daha sakin ve doğa odaklı bir deneyim sunar. Rüzgarın gücüyle ilerlemek, denizle daha derin bir bağ kurmanızı sağlar. 3. Gulet Tatili: Özellikle Türkiye’de oldukça popülerdir. Geniş yaşam alanları ve rahat yapısıyla aileler için uygundur. 4. Katamaran Tatili: Geniş ve dengeli yapısıyla konforlu bir seyir sunar. Özellikle kalabalık gruplar için idealdir. Türkiye’de Tekne Tatili Rotaları Türkiye, tekne tatili için dünyanın en güzel rotalarından birine sahiptir. Ege ve Akdeniz kıyıları, birbirinden güzel koyları ve berrak sularıyla ünlüdür. Bodrum: Eğlence ve doğanın birleştiği bir rota. Marmaris: Yeşil ve mavinin en güzel tonlarını sunar. Fethiye – Göcek: Tekne tatilinin kalbi olarak bilinir. Kaş – Kekova: Tarih ve doğanın iç içe geçtiği eşsiz bir bölge. Bu bölgelerde yapacağınız bir tekne tatili, unutulmaz anılar biriktirmenizi sağlar. Ayrıca tekne tatili, kalabalıklardan uzaklaşmak isteyenler için ideal bir seçenektir. Özellikle popüler tatil bölgelerinde yoğunluk arttıkça, sessiz ve huzurlu bir tatil yapmak zorlaşır. Tekne sayesinde ise ulaşılması zor koylara giderek doğanın tadını en saf haliyle çıkarabilirsiniz. tekne, yat, motoryat, yelkenli, lüks yat, tekne turu, deniz yaşamı, boating, yachtlife, yachting, sailing, boatlife, deniz, marina, kaptan, deniz keyfi, yaz tatili, mavi yolculuk, tatil, keşif, adventure, luxury lifestyle, sea life, ocean vibes, boat tour, yacht tour, travel, keşfet, viral, trending, keşfetteyiz, reels, youtube, shorts, tekne tanıtımı, yat tanıtımı, motoryat tanıtımı, yelkenli tekne, tekne inceleme, boat review, yacht review, denizde yaşam, lüks yaşam, tatil vlog, travel vlog, deniz manzarası, sahil, koylar, turkuaz su, summer vibes tekne, tekne tanıtımı, yat, yat tanıtımı, motoryat, motoryat tanıtımı, yelkenli, yelkenli tekne, boat, boat tour, boat review, yacht, yacht tour, yacht review, yachting, boating, sailing, boatlife, yachtlife, deniz, deniz yaşamı, denizde yaşam, marina, kaptan, mavi yolculuk, yaz tatili, tatil, seyahat, travel, travel vlog, vlog, keşfet, keşfetteyiz, viral, trending, reels, youtube, shorts, lüks yaşam, luxury lifestyle, deniz manzarası, koylar, turkuaz su, summer vibes tekne, yat, motoryat, yelkenli, bot, şişme bot, tekne turu, tekne kiralama, yat kiralama, deniz, deniz keyfi, deniz tutkunları, boat, boating, boatlife, yacht, yachting, yachtlife, sailing, sea life, ocean, marina, liman, kaptan, seyir, denizde yaşam, mavi yolculuk, yaz tatili, tatil, gezi, keşif, adventure, travel, travel vlog, vlog, lüks yaşam, luxury lifestyle, sahil, koylar, turkuaz su, güneş, yaz, summer vibes, keşfet, keşfetteyiz, viral, trending, reels, youtube, shorts

On the northwest coast of Samos, you’ll find the Potami waterfalls. We hopped on our e-bike and e-scooter, and after a 15-minute ride through the mountains from our sailboat, we arrived at this small waterfall. A pleasant path led us there.

We set out expecting a manageable day on the water. The forecast had been holding steady around 20 knots from the east, and it looked like good conditions for a downwind sail to Port Protection. But as we worked our way down Sumner Strait toward Point Baker, the conditions started building beyond what was expected. Winds pushed well over 40 knots, with steep, messy seas building around us. It wasn’t just the strength of it. The angle of the wind made it harder, pushing us toward shore at times and forcing us to stay fully engaged at the helm. Looking back, there are always things you’d do differently. We kept sail up longer than we should have, and by the time things escalated, it made everything more complicated to manage in those conditions. And it’s a good reminder for us moving forward: In the winter out here, a 20 knot forecast can easily turn into 40. We worked through it together, we stayed with it, and made our way around Point Baker. And just like that, everything changed. Flat water in Port Protection. Quiet. Relief. The kind of calm that feels almost surreal after a day like that. We made it in safe, a little worn down, and a little sharper for next time. ⏱️ CHAPTERS 0:00 Winter Sailing in Alaska… Forecast vs Reality 0:32 Working Our Way Toward Point Baker 1:49 First Glimpse of Port Protection 2:18 Conditions Start Building 2:55 8–10 Foot Seas & 40+ Knot Winds 3:13 Sails Start Getting Hard to Manage 4:25 Pushing Through the Worst of It 4:42 What We Expected vs What We Got 5:28 Coast Guard Storm Warning Hits 6:00 Forecast vs Actual Conditions 6:30 Fighting Wind and Current 7:30 Chaos on Deck 8:48 How the Boat Handled It 10:00 Why We Kept Going 11:00 Rounding Point Baker 12:00 Making It Into Port Protection 13:30 Aftermath and Reset 14:15 Lessons From the Day 15:00 20 Knots Doesn’t Mean 20

Prepare yourself for the best week of your life on our 7 Day Croatia Flotilla Week. If island hopping between some of the most secluded swim spots, crystal clear coves and Croatian hotspots is your idea of a good time, this tour is for you! The Flotilla Week runs on a Split Return South Route, allowing guests to fly in and out of Split International Airport and explore this fascinating city before and after the tour. The Flotilla Itinerary covers the following destinations: Day 1: Split The adventure begins! Meet your skipper and fellow travellers at 1pm in ACI Marina, Split, for a welcome drink before your 2pm check-in! After a quick briefing, we’ll set sail into the crisp, blue waters of the Adriatic. Day 1: Milna Day 1 will get you comfortable with sailing as we head out into our opening day sail. We’ll head straight for the island of Brac, where you can enjoy a late afternoon swim and ease into the Croatian way of life! This evening enjoy a cocktail as the sun goes down before heading to dinner at a local Croatian restaurant! Day 2: Hvar This morning, we set sail for the Pakleni Island archipelago, taking in the iconically Dalmatian views as we cruise through the 18 picturesque islands that make up the archipelago before arriving in Palmizana (a short water taxi from Hvar Town). This afternoon we'll catch a water taxi to Hvar Town to experience the ‘French Riviera’ of Croatia; home of super yachts, DJ’s and epic beach parties! Climb to Hvar’s 16th-century fortress for stunning views over the harbour and surrounding islands, then unwind at iconic beach club, Hula Hula Bar. After dinner at one of the many waterfront restaurants, mingle with fellow Sail Croatia crew at Nautica Bar! Day 3: Vis Today we set sail for the majestic island of Vis, one of the most outlying islands on the Dalmatian coast. Vis has been used over the centuries as a strategic military port and saw action by the Allied military through WWII against Italy and Germany. It has only recently opened to commercial tourism and still retains a lot of its historical charm, as it is not frequently visited due to its location. Vis is home to the stunning sandy beach of Stoncica Bay, where we’ll stop for a swim before heading into Vis Town. Day 4: Stari Grad This morning we sail towards Stari Grad stopping for a refreshing swim stop along the way. Situated on the northern side of Hvar island, Stari Grad literally means 'Old Town' and it is the oldest town in Croatia. Stari Grad boasts an attractive network of old narrow streets and small squares around the harbour. This evening we will come together to enjoy a delicious onboard dinner prepared by your Skipper. Day 5: Jelsa This morning we’ll sail towards Jelsa, also located on Hvar Island. This afternoon you’ll have the option to visit the UNESCO protected world heritage site of Stari Grad, where you can explore a local farm and experience Croatian wine at its best! Day 6: Makarska This morning we’ll leave Brac behind and make our way down the coast to the breathtaking town of Makarska. We’ll anchor in a secluded bay along the way, where we'll while away the hours at the onboard Punch Party, swimming, sunbathing on the deck and taking it all in with an ice-cold drink in hand. Later in the afternoon, we'll enjoy a short sail into Makarska, a seaside town that nestles under the massive peaks of the Biokovo mountain range, with Mt Jure being the highest seaside peak in the Mediterranean. Once docked you’ll have the option to visit Marineta; a bar serving up delicious cocktails, or head out for freshly caught seafood at one of the many restaurants in this seaside town! Tonight it’s time for the Blue & White Boat Party! Grab your finest linen outfit, boat shoes and chic vibes for a party on the top deck with your fellow shipmates! After the sun sets we’ll head to one of the bars or nightclubs located in Markaska Town. Whether it's cocktails at Bety Bar, or partying in a natural cave next to the sea at Club Deep, the nightlife in Makarska will keep you partying well into the night. Day 7: Split Shake off your Makarska induced hangover with a strong cup of coffee as we set sail towards our final destination, Split. This stunning waterfront city features an abundance of Roman architecture and the spectacular Diocletian's Palace that has to be seen to be believed! If you didn't get the opportunity to experience Split prior to your departure, this is the time to discover the many hidden cafes, bars and restaurants strewn throughout the palace walls before enjoying your final night with new friends! Day 8: Split Rise and shine – at 8:30am you’ll say goodbye to your crew and make your way on to your next adventure.

Retour à Cuba, nous y étions en mai 2025 mais nous avions eu un goût de trop peu. Et on a bien fait d’y revenir. Nous découvrons ce magnifique pays entre décembre 2025 et février 2026, juste avant que cela ne dégénère… Cette première partie se déroule dans les îles du sud au départ de Cayo Largo. Avec Etienne et Éric, venus nous rejoindre pour découvrir la vie à bord et faire de la plongée sous-marine, nous allons naviguer d’île en île, souvent désertiques avec des plages de rêves et des eaux cristallines. Nous y faisons de belles plongées et du snorkeling jusque dans les mangroves. A Cayo Largo nous visitons le centre de sauvetage des tortues marines qui promeut la protection et la préservation des espèces en instruisant le touriste et en assistant la ponte des œufs sur les nombreuses plages de l’archipel. Une petite pause de 2 semaines pour Orion comme pour nous : nous rentrons en Belgique pour les fêtes de fin d’année !

Nuestra travesía desde Guna Yala, un paraíso de la navegación, hasta Linton Bay donde preparamos nuestro velero para pasar el Canal y dirigirnos a Polinesia.

Marking a bold new chapter, Horizon Yachts presented “Reimagined” as the core theme of the 2026 Horizon Open House.

Episode 26 of Short Stories follows our first ever Short Marine Social Club client event, a day out on the water exploring the iconic Tangalooma Wrecks. We picked up our customers from Runaway Bay before heading north in convoy, with the weather absolutely turning it on for the day. The fleet made its way across the bay, with us aboard the Regal 38 SAV, enjoying a perfect run over to Moreton Island. Great boats, great people, and one of Queensland’s most incredible boating destinations. Days like this are exactly what the Short Marine community is all about.

Another squally day. They’ve been coming through nonstop, one after the other. Dark clouds rolling in, wind picking up, then easing again… all day. It makes everything feel a bit hectic, like you’re constantly one step away from needing to adjust something. So I decided to play it safe early. Two reefs in the main, two in the genoa. Just settled the boat down and took the pressure off. After that, everything felt a lot more manageable, and I didn’t have to keep second-guessing every gust or cloud passing by. Today ended up being more of an office day than anything else. Spent most of it working on sponsors. Reaching out, pitching, following up, trying to get conversations going. It’s one of those things that doesn’t feel very “Atlantic crossing” when you’re doing it, but it’s such a big part of making this whole project possible. And honestly… it matters. A lot. I still squeezed in a bit of a workout and some singing, as usual. Those small routines keep the day balanced. But yeah, overall, today was a work day. And tomorrow might be a big one. If everything goes as planned, by sunset I’ll be turning north. Which feels a bit crazy to even say. 🌊 ⚓ Life on the Showgirl is my journey toward one of the toughest solo sailing races on the planet: the Golden Globe Race — sailed solo, non-stop, and without modern technology. Follow along as I learn, prepare, and chase a dream that feels bigger than me. ------------------------------------------ New videos EVERY 7th of the month ------------------------------------------ EXCLUSIVE CONTENT!!: https://www.patreon.com/classicmara ------------------------------------------ Follow Mara: https://www.instagram.com/classicmara_/ __________________________ Support me: PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/helgamarielk Vipps: 39088 - Classic Mara Venmo: https://account.venmo.com/u/griedy1 GoFundMe: https://gofund.me/173a9a5e6 __________________________ Affiliate links: Dakota Lithium Batteries: https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=79634&awinaffid=2732466&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dakotalithium.com Orca Navigation System: https://getorca.com/?via=classicmara PitViper: https://www.pitviper.com/discount/CLASSICMARA?redirect=%2F&utm_campaign=money%2Bcounters&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_source=upfluence

In this episode, the new crew sets sail for the very first time as we depart Saint Lucia and point the bow toward Martinique. Due to visa complications, one of our crew members was unable to enter Saint Lucia and had been diverted to Martinique. Which means we’re throwing these rookie sailors straight into the fire… with an overnight passage to kick off the final season of Sailing Ripple Effect. But before leaving Saint Lucia, we decided to add one more challenge to the agenda. Standing nearly 2,500 feet above the Caribbean Sea, the Petit Piton is a towering volcanic spire… and one of the most aggressive hikes in the entire Caribbean. Naturally… we had to climb it. ------------------------------------------ EXCLUSIVE CONTENT!!: https://www.patreon.com/sailingrippleeffect ------------------------------------------ Watch Season 10: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K1CA-bu-rW0&list=PLEz8PmTM4lWBzU9d-_qLVRnQsaDb5D-ft Watch Season 9: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ReB90uELXV8&list=PLEz8PmTM4lWA-ObNyQan-3_XqLKsgJFmW Watch Season 8: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xIVCzMdoWBA&list=PLEz8PmTM4lWDtf6jfHdIgHPL7oGtAWMt3 Watch Season 7: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afaTfAmnuMs&list=PLEz8PmTM4lWDK2c2YW8rr55wjvf74934g Watch Season 6: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3-1Jkl4rCMY&list=PLEz8PmTM4lWDu_xLN0JFnx-YX5lSgzXq3&index=1&t=57s Watch Season 4: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l7IrEwJVnHI&list=PLEz8PmTM4lWDG7tstlqR3O1M2fkQQT8-A Watch Season 3: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0nsvIT8jNl8&t=131s Watch Season 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yt7prknxHOA Watch Season 1: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Z1OuEPXG-w ------------------------------------------ Follow Mara: https://www.instagram.com/classicmara_/ Follow Doc: https://www.instagram.com/docgastone/ Follow Gabi: https://www.instagram.com/gabiwaked/ Follow Tami: https://www.instagram.com/tambam_tw/ Follow Marta: https://www.instagram.com/martaventures/

On Saint Patrick’s Day 2024, Toni and I climbed aboard "Moments in Time" for the first time—five years of dreaming and preparation finally becoming real. It was a surreal moment. We marked the anniversary today with a quiet celebration.

SAILING ILLUSTRATED #918 (Tue 17 Mar 26): As we reported on Friday, one hears Karel Komárek (CZE) and his ostensible CEO Ken Read (USA) are hard at work to pull together an AC38 challenge before the 31 March deadline. One now hears it will be through an American yacht club. Will they also buy the American Magic assets, and train in Pensacola?

X-Yachts XP-50 - подробный обзор performance cruiser яхты с гоночной историей ORC флота. В этом видео мы подробно разбираем гоночный проект, который изначально создавался как полноценная offshore racing yacht для участия в регатах ORC-флота. Эта конкретная X-Yachts XP-50 была доработана профессиональной командой инженеров и гонщиков. Яхта получила ряд серьёзных модернизаций: карбоновую мачту и такелаж, глубокий гоночный киль с осадкой 3.2 метра, профессиональную систему гоночной навигации A+T Instruments и облегчённую конструкцию корпуса. Над оптимизацией гидродинамики лодки работал известный испанский инженер Javier Sela - специалист по гоночным корпусам и участник проектов, побеждавших на Copa del Rey MAPFRE. В первый год проектом руководил Luis Martínez Doreste - один из самых известных испанских яхтсменов. Многократный чемпион Copa del Rey, участник Олимпийских игр, а также один из самых опытных тактиков испанского гоночного флота. Далее к проекту присоединился Axel Rodger - аргентинский яхтсмен международного уровня, известный прежде всего своими победами в классе Snipe. Позже к проекту был приглашён Santiago Ланге Младший - имя, которое хорошо известно в мире парусного спорта. Его отец, Santiago Lange, является олимпийским чемпионом и легендой мирового яхтинга. Под руководством команды Ланге, проект продолжал развиваться ещё несколько лет. В этом обзоре мы подробно показываем: -deck layout гоночной яхты -карбоновый рангоут и такелаж -гоночную навигационную систему A+T -рассказываем про особенности киля и гидродинамики корпуса -внутреннюю планировку performance cruiser -рассказываем о истории гоночного проекта Яхта участвовала в крупных регатах ORC и показала сильные результаты, включая: 1 место Mediterranean Trophy 2024; 3 место PalmaVela 2025. X-Yachts XP-50 - это редкое сочетание полноценной гоночной лодки и комфортного 50-футового cruiser-racer. Основные характеристики яхты: Верфь: X-Yachts Модель: XP-50 Длина: 15 м Ширина: 4.40 м Осадка: 3.20 м Карбоновые мачта, гик, краспицы, ванты, апарель, полы в каютах, а также штурвалы.

Come farà nelle prossime giornate? #camper #camperlife #viaggioincamper #ronik #sailingronik #viaggiare #spagna #canarie #lapalma #viaggiodasola #lafajana #charcoazul #sanantonio ⛵️ Il nostro S/Y Ronik è a riposo durante l'inverno in secca in cantiere a Termini Imerese che riprenderemo in Primavera 2026. Noi proseguiremo con un progetto che Ci porterà alla scoperta di nuovi orizzonti. Questa volta via terra e non via mare. Continuate a seguirci! Sailing Ronik non si ferma continuando a scoprire spicchi di mondo per noi e per voi! Sailing Ronik on the Road. ⛵️ Sailing Ronik è viaggio, il viaggio è scoperta e conoscenza, la conoscenza è cultura, la cultura è capacità di potersi emozionare per le piccole grandi cose che scopriamo ogni giorno. In un viaggio non è importante la destinazione ma il viaggio stesso! Vivere per viaggiare e non viaggiare per vivere! Amiamo viaggiare ed ogni luogo che visitiamo, in barca a vela, in camper, in auto, in moto, in bicicletta od anche a piedi è sempre una piacevole stimolante scoperta. ⛵️ Per seguire le avventure di #sailingronik sui Social: FACEBOOK Sailing Ronik: https://www.facebook.com/sailingronik FACEBOOK Betty: https://www.facebook.com/betty.maggioni FACEBOOK Mauro: https://www.facebook.com/mauro.zampini.7 INSTAGRAM Sailing Ronik: https://www.instagram.com/sailingronik INSTAGRAM Betty: https://www.instagram.com/betty.maggioni INSTAGRAM Mauro: https://www.instagram.com/arundelyaching

När något oväntat händer är det svårt att ha en plan. Men jag har fått många frågor om vad som händer nu, så låt oss prata lite om det. Just nu är vi tillbaka i Sverige och tar dagen som den kommer. Vårt fokus är att ta en sak i taget och vara i nuet. Det har vi faktiskt blivit ganska bra på efter två år av båtliv. Samtidigt har vi såklart funderat på hur det blir med båten och äventyret. Planen JUST NU är att återvända till Karibien om ungefär en månad. Beroende på hur vi mår, hur allt känns, hur världsläget är och hur vädret ser ut kanske vi fortsätter västerut i år. Eller så stannar vi kvar i Karibien. Vi vet helt enkelt inte exakt än, och det är okej. En sak vi verkligen lärt oss under två år som heltidsresande är att man kan ha en plan… men den ändras ofta. Det handlar lika mycket om mindset. Bestämmer man sig för tidigt för exakt vad som ska hända kan man lätt känna att man måste hålla fast vid det, även om det inte känns rätt längre. Vi känner att det kommer lösa sig och att det kommer bli bra, så länge vi är tillsammans. 💙⛵️ Resten får vi bestämma senare. Det fina med att ha ett flytande hem är ju faktiskt just det: Vi kan segla dit vi vill, på egen hand. 💙 Tack för att ni följer med oss på resan. Har du någon gång behövt släppa en plan och bara följa livet istället? Berätta gärna. 💙

Near the town of Karlovasi on Samos, we discovered a small chapel called Agios Nikolaos Chapel. It is often used for weddings because of its picturesque location on a cliff, overlooking the sunset. We parked our bikes and took a look inside the small chapel. We also regularly come across the name “Agios Nikolaos” during our travels through Greece; it refers to Saint Nicholas, the patron saint of sailors.
