First Storm on the New Boat - Did It Hold Up?

We barely made it out of the marina before a massive thunderstorm rolled in! ⛈️⛵ We're finally leaving Pattaya, Thailand, aboard our Island Spirit 525 catamaran, but first we have a few last-minute systems checks to complete. Unfortunately, those checks take much longer than expected, and by the time we're ready to leave, dark storm clouds are already closing in! We manage to slip out of the marina just ahead of the storm, but it's not over yet. For the next 20 hours, we're dodging thunderstorms as we make our way south toward the beautiful island of Koh Chang. Of course, it's not all bad weather and stressful sailing! With Nika relaxing on deck in her bikini, the occasional sunshine, and some beautiful Thai scenery, there are definitely worse ways to spend 20 hours at sea! Come along as we kick off another sailing adventure in Thailand! ⛵ **Subscribe to Sailing Doodles** for more sailing adventures, beautiful destinations, and life aboard our catamaran! ❤️ **Support the adventures and get exclusive videos:** Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/sailingdoodles 🌐 https://www.sailingdoodles.com #SailingDoodles #SailingThailand #Catamaran #KohChang #SailingAdventure Download the Sailing Doodles Crew App on iOS and come join the Crew! https://apps.apple.com/us/app/sailing-doodles-crew/id6760212361 or join our Patreon http://www.patreon.com/sailingdoodles or become a channel member https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkDwexrF43p_1QurfKFBCBA/join Donate Via Paypal to help http://www.paypal.me/sailingdoodles Our partners: Want more info in the Island Spirit 525e?
