Welcome back! In this video we continue our journey sailing across the Atlantic Ocean, heading towards the Caribbean. This is the last third of the passage, and we go from calm weather to some stronger wind and swell which changes the experience completely. We try to fly our drone at sea, which was a pretty nerve wracking experience and we reflect on what passage life means for us and how we've both found this crossing. Then after 17 days at sea, we finally see land! We anchor up in Martinique and get ready to explore the new continent!

Five things to do on a boat: 1. keep the crew on board 2. Keep the mast up 3. Keep the keel down 4. Keep the water out 5. Keep the rudder on.

Congratulations on crossing the "pond" and welcome to Paradise. Welcome to the Caribbean which was my home for 40+ years. I initially went to Puerto Rico for a 2 week vacation between advanced degrees at UCLA in California and never went back for the PhD. There is something about every single island that you will love... especially the people. Cheers!!!

Huge milestone!…I assume you realize how sweet that passage was compared to what it could have been…either really good planning , amazing luck, or both…about that vang…it seems that if you broaden the load with larger fitting it would make the difference…I would even consider removing the plate from the mast and placing on deck , through bolted and back plated … Cheers and congrats!

Congratulations!!! What an incredible feeling that must be, what an accomplishment!! 🍻 Great video as usual! By the way, your teak decks look amazing for the age of your boat. I have a 1982 Hans Christian and we ended up removing the teak decks, too hot here in the Caribbean and unfortunately it was time! I wish I still had them on the boat because they look so awesome…..but the upkeep 🤦🏻‍♂️ If you guys make it to the eastern side of Puerto Rico after hurricane season. let me know, wife and I will finally be moving to our boat that is in Fajardo next month full time! 🙌🏻👍🏻
@NavikaSailing
@NavikaSailing Год назад
Hey guys! Felt pretty sweet to arrive yes! Yeah thanks, we actually completely renovated the teak decks ourselves when we bought the boat (it was a HUGE job 😅) We're really happy with the outcome but obviously with the sun they start to turn gray pretty quickly. Anyway! Oh cool yes we'll definitely let you know if we're around that part of Puerto Rico, would love to see your boat! Hans Crhistians are beautiful.

Hi. I’d swap the kicker so the block which you attached to the ring on the deck would go on the bottom of mast. This will take most the load and also be even when you let boom in or out as the angles are aligned, then you can run the final block to align with the fair lead aft. Good luck.
@Pretty60s
@Pretty60s 6 месяцев назад
Fantastic. So educational. Did you mean Vang? When you say kicking strap? Your traveller is so far forward beyond the dodger you should be ok. Hopefully. The main sheet will do the work

@akathesquid5794
@akathesquid5794 Год назад
my boat is rigged with 4:1 block systems on each side attached to mid-boom and at toe rail on each side. This works as both a preventer and vang for downwind sailing. less forces with this line mid-boom and boom pulling up (trying to lift) at a 90 degree angle to both boom and deck. I hope this makes sense? easy to rig also. can send pics if needed.
@deerfootnz
@deerfootnz Год назад
Have you tried a more stretchy line on the vang? When your boat was new it would have been fitted with low tech non pre-stretched polyester line. Shock loadings would have been absorbed in the line stretch, but modern ropes especially spectra will not stretch resulting in high peak loads and broken gear. Try Dacron/polyester line or even nylon with a polyester cover. You can vang the boom down with a tackle to the rail if you have a strong enough padeye on the rail. A proper preventer which runs from boom end to the bow and back to the cockpit will also control sail twist. Let the boom out a bit further than you want, make the preventer fast and then tension the mainsheet. This will tighten the leech of the main. The preventer should not be spectra or other low stretch material

My husband and I have just finished binge watching your videos. You guys are now in our top 5 sailing chanels! And we watch a lot 🤣. You are so easy to watch and have a wonderful outlook on life. I'm just so envious of you both doing it at the ages you are. I've just turned 50 and my husband and I are in the process of saving and downsizing our STUFF so we can make your dream our reality. You both seem like genuinely lovely people and I'm thrilled that you're living your best life. Your parents must be extremely proud of you both. Keep doing what you're doing and live your BEST life ❤

Well done! I had a total belly laugh when Alex was talking about the flying fish. OMG. Smacked by something in the middle of the Atlantic. Do dolphin pods ever get old? I think not. I have seen enough passages to know yours was nice and smooth. Good job preparing. You stayed safe which is more important than all else. Well done.
@NavikaSailing
@NavikaSailing Год назад
Haha getting hit by the fish was such a shock! 😂 We're also really happy with how the crossing went. A lot of our friends who did it at the same time didn't have the same luck weather wise so shout out to our weather router and some wise calls which meant we had pleasant weather the whole way pretty much!
@tenwalls2428
@tenwalls2428 Год назад
Aside from the obvious sailing content; the sails and surf and sunsets, I'm liking all the intellectual considerations and acknowledgements of mental state and mindset during this Atlantic crossing experience; as well as the logic and strategy of watch schedules and management of time zone adjustment. Thanks for all the zen! Big fan.
@NavikaSailing
@NavikaSailing Год назад
Thanks, yeah we wanted to remember the way we felt mentally along the way too so we decided to include it. It's something that we were trying to get a feel for as well before we set off but found it difficult to find any information about how it "feels" to cross - as well as more practical things like watch schedules and changing timezones etc. Glad you enjoyed it anyway, thanks for sharing!
