A sailor that enjoys sharing a life at sea 🌊
Pacific crossing update. Panama - Marquesas Islands. Coming up to day seven at sea. Just sailed through the Galápagos Islands and heading west south west. 1100nm down only 3000 to go! Life’s pretty simple out here being surrounded by the sea. It’s just sunrises and sunsets. My wife comes on watch around 5pm I sleep till 2am and then we swap and I’m on watch again till 5pm. Works great for us and we enjoy doing these passages just two up. We had around twenty small squid land on the deck the other morning early as they get scared from the boat at night and jump out of the water. Unfortunately for them but fortunately for us they sometimes land on the deck. I go around in the morning and pick them up then my wife’s cooks them up making a delicious and fresh meal out of them!! Mother Nature can be incredibly generous. Here’s a few pics from the last few days at sea. #nostr #sailing #ocean #simplelife #bitcoin
Third day at sea and we’ve had a fantastic start to the passage. Calm first evening but some great sailing the second day with a top speeds of 14kts so far during a little surf. Now the breeze has just gone light and we’re motoring for the evening until we get into some more breeze again tomorrow. Should be a traditional zone tomorrow evening then into some light trade winds just to the north east of the Galapagos. Nature has gifted us with dolphins, whales, a turtle and even a small shark swam by this morning. Amazing what you see when you’re present out here. Love how this life style connects you to the planet and the aquatic life that lives upon it. Here’s this mornings sunrise #sunrise #sailing #travel #adventure #nostr image
Day 1 - of our Pacific Crossing has been spent cleaning the bottom of the hull. If we do this we make the hull smoother and the boat far more efficient when underway and this makes travelling 4,000nm quicker and easier on the boat, you and your gear! This is where we are anchored and we’ll spend the next day or two finishing off small jobs and waiting on a solid weather window to depart in. Have to say it’s not a bad spot to do all the above in 🤙😊 image
Over the last few days we’ve been in Panama working hard to get the final jobs done before we departed across the Pacific. Those jobs are now done. The boats full of spares, provisions and all she needs now is a day out at the Las Perlas where we’ll clean her bottom and wait for a solid weather window, which looks to be the 11th or 12th? I’ll update here when we can to share what it’s like crossing an ocean on a sweet 54ft trimaran. Peace and love to all you crazy #Nostr users, freedom tech lovers and Bitcoiners. #Nostr #Bitcoin and #Sailing all have one things in common. They’re all freedom tech!
Every day we are gifted with natures art. How did we ever get corrupted enough to jam ourselves into concrete boxes and to fawn over celebrities when we have this outside? image
The world that surrounds us all is incredibly beautiful when you remove all the human noise and BS. Don’t forget to tune out and tune in once in a while. We live in an amazing place and we’re all surrounded by magic. image
Another spectacular day waking up on the water. The oceans one of the last places where a person can live free. Free to move and to wander as and when they please. True happiness is freedom and the secret to freedom is courage! image
Well the nature around here certainly enjoys the view from the bow! #nature #sailing image
Another spectacular day waking up upon the worlds oceans #sailing image
Beautiful sail out to the Las Perlas Islands off Panama City today. Spectacular really 10kts of breeze and ghosting along at 8kts! image
Been a long slog these past five months getting this boat ready but we’re ready and the last two nights we’ve spent away from marinas and out on anchor. Life’s bliss when you move away from the crowds and surround yourself with nature! #boatstr #nostr #sailing image
As everyone freaks about Bitcoins price we stay humble and stack sats and continue to fit our new water maker. We run this boat 100% off #solar power and we dream of one day being able to mine #Bitcoin using our excess power. At the moment it’s a dream but in a few years we hope to bring it to reality. Stay tuned #nostr 🤙
