    Ahoy everyone!
    My name is Nike and I have been living and sailing on my sailboat Karl since 2013. After a massive refit marathon, I finally cast off the lines and learnt to solo sail my 37-foot Reinke Super 10 that I called "Karl". I am publishing videos (at the moment every two weeks) about the ups and downs of living, repairing and sailing my boat.
    Since January 2022, I have a new permanent crew member: my furry friend Boga. When I started out, I did not know much about boat repair or solo sailing. Since I am still out there, I hope that my story inspires others, to chase their dreams, even if they might think they are not cut out for it. There is always a way, so I'll see you out there!

    Thanks to everybody who has supported the creation of these video and has shared this epic adventure with me so far. It would not have been the same without you!
    Lots of ocean love, Nike🧜‍♀, Boga 🐾 and KARL ⛵

    Again, a genuine, real life, unpretentious revealing of life in a 'far away corner' of the globe...Beautiful scenes, most of the time all to short but ALWAYS interesting, I could have watched 5 minutes of your doggie helping you dig, love seeing his little head pop up in many scenes... Shout out to Paul...Thanks so much for sharing this 'lifestyle' that so few of us get to experience.

    Great theme and connection with famous local gastronomes! Here in the Pacific NW of North America, mussels are the easily-harvested shellfish, clinging to the rocks. The shelling is left to the eater, and there's nothing better than a mix of steamed clams and mussels with white wine and garlic to dip your sourdough bread in.

    • @WhiteSpotPirates
      @WhiteSpotPirates  9 месяцев назад +1

      Ah yes, thanks for clarifying that! In German, the main term mussels is for mussels and clams / cockels they just all have a different descriptive name added to them that differentiates them. 😂 good to know all the right words now 👍

    Hi Nike! Your happiness in experiencing the joys of simple living shines through. Can't wait to see how you like the seafood rice. I am concerned that you are getting baked in the tropical sun. Maybe sunscreen or an umbrella for shade?

    • @WhiteSpotPirates
      @WhiteSpotPirates  9 месяцев назад +1

      Those were very happy moments for sure. I am glad ur enjoying the content.
      Thanks for ur concern. I put on 50 sunscreen every day and maybe you saw that I was also wearing a shirt and a hat. Taking a sunbrella with me might not be so much my cup of tea ☺️ but I am usually trying to cover up and protect myself ☺️👍

    • @terrapod4898
      @terrapod4898 9 месяцев назад

      Good to hear you are taking precautions to prevent sunburn. I have a friend whose family had a cottage on the Lake Michigan shoreline. As a kid he routinely got sunburn from spending so much time on the beach. The summer sun will cook you in 1/2 an hour. Now he has to be checked for skin cancer twice a year. The sun is fun but use that sunscreen, shirt and hat. Love your videos.@@WhiteSpotPirates
