#sailboat #sailboatlife #sailing #anchoring #balearicislands #sailboatcollisionatanchor This episode starts with a crash that woke us up in the middle of night our surveillance cameras caught the dramatic moment and what happened after that. The next morning we lift anchor and sail though a beautiful archipelago to the south side of Ibiza to a beach called Es Jondal in what was suposed to be a protected bay but instead we got an extremely rolly night where I actually put towels in my porcelain cabinets. But as any good Hollywoodmovie we provide a happy ending after all the despair in a nice an calm anchorage at Formentera. We are a middle aged couple that has left our hectic business lives to go sailing with our boat Frid? af Wisby and our cat Litza. Our goal is not to go to a specific place but to reach a state of mind where we can really enjoy life. Anders has been at the sea most of his life and sailed for the Swedish national dingy sailing team as a young man. Gitte has also grown up with boats and spent every summer sailing with her father as a teenager but made a pause of about 15 years without sailing as an adult, had just begun to pick-up the interest before she meet Anders in 2017. Onboard we also have our cat Litza a 4 year old Devon Rex we call her the cattain because cats always decide over their humans. Frid? af Wisby is a Wauquiez 47 pilot saloon that we Gitte and Anders bought in UK in 2019 and that we have sailed to Gotland and in season 1 2020 we sail in the Baltic Sea. During season 2 We sailded south to Dieppe Normandy France. After a winter in France in Season 3 we started to sail the Atlantic coast of Europe to Xufre in Spain where we lifted the boat over the summer while we where back in Gotland to work at our hostel we got there. Season 4 got a short sailing season where we only sailed to Lagos on the Algarve coast of Portugal where we hauled out once again this time to go throug a long list of boatwork and to build a solar arch to make the boat more self-suficient with electricity. After 6 months in Lagos we kicked-off season 5 with real bluewater sailing first to the northerly Atlantic island Porto Santo and Madeira and then further out to the Azores that lays in the middle of the Atlantic ocean before turning back towards the mainland and south coast of Portugal again.
