The TRUTH about my SAIL OFFSHORE + the DREADED Mona Passage [ep 81]

If you want to SEE the sail... head to the last video (ep 80) (; Sailing is rejuvenating, yet it can take a lot out of you. I am taking it easy for a few days after the sail but it is time for my honest opinion of how my first long offshore solo sail REALLY went and how I planned the trip. Every cruiser I talk to fears the Mona Passage, and rightfully so... it can get intense; therefore I also wanted to explain why and how you can time this passage with the wind and currents. Give a little extra support ? The circumnavigation is JUST beginning... all of your help goes towards more gear to make the videos a bit better and the boat safer and more functional for myself as a single hand (and maybe an extra treat for Mako) PATREON COMMUNITY: https://www.patreon.com/laurenlanders Paypal: https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/souldelamar Venmo: https://account.venmo.com/u/souldelamar Mako Treats: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/laurenalanR Merchandise: https://www.souldelamar.com/shop/ Wish List: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/WT5UKPG3ITDP/ref=nav_wishlist_lists_3 Things I use & love (these are affiliate links and helps me out a little bit): Sunscreen: www.Stream2Sea.com code: "laurenalanders" Sunglasses: https://glnk.io/y31nz/laurenlanders Coffee: https://shareasale.com/r.cfm?b=1765969&u=3110145&m=110103&urllink=&afftrack= Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/shop/_laurenlanders Groceries via Thrive membership: http://thrv.me/WzJrbh Water Filter Sink: https://www.acuvatech.com/shop/?ref=laurenlandersClothing: www.thesilkco.com code: "Lauren Landers Sailing" Instagram instagram.com/laurenlanders instagram.com/makoatsea
