Join us on an incredible sailing adventure as we embark on a 216-mile journey from Estepona, Spain to Azohia, Spain, sailing alone in the Mediterranean. In this video, we provide a glimpse into our life living aboard a boat for two nights, accompanied by our loyal four-legged companion. Get ready to witness breathtaking sunrises, mesmerizing sunsets, and even a surprise visit from playful dolphins. As we sail along the stunning south coast of Spain, we showcase the daily routines and experiences of living aboard our beloved Gib'Sea 402, a masthead sloop built in 1989. Discover how we eat, sleep, and savor the tranquil moments on the open sea. Our furry friend adds an extra touch of companionship to the journey, making it all the more memorable. During this voyage, we encountered the perfect conditions to test out our extendable whisker pole for the first time. We share insights on how this innovative tool allowed us to sail downwind at a deeper angle, optimizing our progress in light winds. It's an invaluable technique every sailor should consider for smoother and more efficient sailing. Throughout the passage, we were blessed with favorable weather and smooth sailing, without any significant challenges. Our focus was on embracing the beauty of the Mediterranean and relishing the joy of solitude on the open water. Although we didn't encounter any notable landmarks on this particular journey, nature presented us with awe-inspiring sunrises and sunsets that will take your breath away. Witness the vibrant colors painted across the sky, creating a mesmerizing backdrop for our adventure. And keep an eye out for the unforgettable moment when dolphins graced us with their presence, playfully swimming alongside our bow during sunrise. This voyage holds a special significance for us, as it marks our first overnight passage sailing alone without additional crew. We take pride in the culmination of our experience, hard work, and boat preparations. It's a testament to our dedication and love for the sailing lifestyle.
