The REAL Cape Hatteras | Sailing Balachandra E045

Thanks for joining us on our Sojourn to the islands of the Caribbean! The REAL Cape Hatteras After our failed attempt on Bermuda we turn south for Norfolk with hopes to try again. We complete the long Island Sound, thend head down the East River into Hell Gate (overnight) and arrive in New York City where we anchor in front of the Statue of Liberty! After a few days anchored on the Hudson River we sail the Jersey coast to Cape May to ride out another strorm. We formulate another plan for Bermuda based on an upcomming window and leave Cape May for Cape Hatteras where we would head South, then Directly East for Bermuda but the weather window changes and we are forced to abandon our plan and fight extreme life threatenning conditions as we round Cape Hatteras. Cape Hatteras is one of the worst navigational hazard zones on the Atlantic coast of NA and it is not to be underestimated. We got our Cape Hatterasses handed to us. Licking our wounds we make for Beaufort NC to ascess the damage. We FINALLY got on board with PATREON!

In August of 2017 I sold everything and moved aboard Balachandra, a 1986 C&C44 sailboat, then sailed it over 300 nautical miles to Halifax Nova Scotia to spend a cold Canadian winter in the frozen waters of the North Atlantic. Sailing Balachandra is our YouTube sailing vlog inspired by other great channels such as Delos and La Vagabonde, which documents the sailing adventures of myself and my partner Nawal as we navigate the globe. We also dive into lots of DIY boat projects both above and below decks, and share with you all of the pros and cons of living aboard in a cold climate. Sailing Balachandra is published weekly so please subscribe so you don't miss out on future videos!
