I sit and and watch this and my spine tingles with the feeling of an excited young person on Christmas morning. Years of planning are going into our adventure but in the meantime, thanks for sharing.
I am a long time sailor but just weekend lake sailing. I have never done any type of passage. I have always dreamed of doing the grand adventure but I must admit sailing is lots of work. You are constantly adjusting sails,checking on this or that etc etc etc. As much as I enjoy that for a weekend,or even the rare week off it would be more work than enjoyment to do a long passage. This is the way go for long trips without a doubt. Looks like you guys had a great time.
This goes beyond what I imagined. It perfectly illustrate my dream to do my fifth circumnavigation the slow way. The first four were via the airlines. By the way the sound track is great, particularly around the mid-point of the video (05:30 minutes). Anybody knows who is playing?
Eating too good for being at sea on a long passage. Those are the times to get in shape, eat right and arrive looking your best. Lord knows being ashore good meals will come as will the pounds. Sea time is conditioning time! No sleep after eating. Hit the treadmill !

IMHO the best boat to do this with. Small enough for 1-2 people ; no crew needed. Big enough to still feel safe in most conditions.
Great trip on a great boat to a great place. What a dream trip. The Nordhavn 55 seems very comfortable on the ocean.
Damn! This sound track is so on point!😂😂
