SailAway 31 | Final BAHAMAS Sailing Prep! Lazy Bag Install | Sailboat Living Sailing Vlog

Bahamas Crossing Imminent! Final Prep - Lazy Bag Install! With our Bahamas Gulf Stream crossing only a couple days away, we're ticking things off the list to make sure the boat's in top shape for offshore sailing. The last major item is our mainsail stowage. Currently we're using a sail cover that doesn't, well...cover. Our new sails are much beefier than our tired old ones, so they're just too much for the cover. Luckily we've had a new Lazy Bag (stack pack, mack pack are other variations) on order for a while and the minutes are ticking down to be able to get it installed in time. Otherwise, handling our main will be a giant pain in the #$%! But it arrives just in time and we get it installed despite the Florida heat. All part of sailboat living...scramble, scramble, scramble...SAIL!! Bahamas here we come - see you there in next week's episode! Be sure to SUBSCRIBE for WEEKLY CONTENT! Cheers!!

Fantastic cinematography, unique destinations, and big, meaty episodes full of fun and culture: https://www.youtube.com/user/briantrautman GONE WITH THE WYNNS - Catamaran couple who transitioned from RV YouTubers to sailing YouTubers and learned the art of cruising from the ground up. Excellent perspective of the difficulties of cruising without the drama. Unique example that you don’t have to rough it AND can be fabulous while cruising: https://www.youtube.com/user/gonewiththewynns SAILING LA VAGABONDE - They were perhaps the first huge sailing channel and have remained fun to watch through some pretty huge changes, like getting a deal on a massive new catamaran and getting pregnant while cruising: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZdQjaSoLjIzFnWsDQOv4ww RAN SAILING - If you can’t find your chill state of Zen watching this couple, you really need a drink. Extremely low key Swedes who truly travel. No fuss, no frills, just two lovely people with great camera skills and a crisp, clean editing style: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLYd5EnTTwUKhouIkHoqzMw
