Ive sailed Patagonia years ago . Spent time in Micalvi. More videos buddy , gives me inspiration to sail down there again before its too late . Awesome videos , All of them
Hermoso video, linda canción y bellos paisajes de la Patagonia chilena. Alcancé a reconocer el Canal Beagle, Bahía Coloane, Isla Gordon, el Glaciar y Seno Pía, y el "Glaciar Italia" 0:55 (Sí, así se denomina; tiene nombre de país al igual que el "Glaciar Alemania", el "Glaciar Finlandia" o el "Glaciar Holanda". Somos "super ingeniosos" los chilenos😒) Esos animalitos 1:32, los Castores (Castor canadensis) son consideradas especies invasoras en la Patagonia chilena por la CONAF y el Estado chileno, y que fueron traídos desde Alaska hace unos 30 años atrás, causando actualmente grandes perjuicios al bosque nativo chileno. Gracias por la calidad de las imágenes y las tomas ofrecidas de esos lugares tan inhóspitos, dramáticos y hermosos 🙏
Beautiful! I read Hal Rothy’s book, two against Cape Horn. He described the area and his adventures. Your videos really bring it to life. Looks like it would be a great location for drone videos.
We fished a little, but not as much as we would have liked. At the time we didn't have much by way of tackle. Definitely hoping to fish more in Alaska.
Wonderful posting. Birgit & I loved the scenery, wildlife and your music selection. Hope to see more vlogs from Dawn Treader. How's is the refit / re-powering project going in Puerto Penasco? Was the large large marine rodent a Nutria? Regards, Mark & Birgit
Thanks guys. The rodent was a beaver with its tail obscured from the picture. They are invasive and fairly common in Tierra del Fuego. The Refit is going well. We're still working in the V-berth, but might branch out to other areas if the pace up there doesn't pick up soon. We've scrapped the repower idea for this Refit, just too expensive. We might go the other direction and experiment with a sculling oar. Hope you guys are staying cool and getting some river time. The heat in Penasco is for real.
Beautiful. Am considering sailing in that of the world. I am also considering getting rid of our inboard in favor of an outboard, like you did. When looking at numbers it seems that fuel consumption on an outboard is much higher than for a diesel inboard though(even if the outboard is smaller, I was looking at anything between 6-9.9hp), how much fuel to you carry on board typically? In the video i could see two 20L(5.3 gal) containers, and then another fueling the engine in the back. Has that been enough for you so far? Evidently, I don't expect to rely solely on the outboard, but I am dreading having to carry a lot of fuel on deck since it cant be stored inside. Your blog and videos are wonderful, esp the blog, am a fan of well-documented projects in written form. I hope the refit is going well.
We typically carry 13-18 gallons of gas, but in Patagonia we increased to 50 gallons with a variety of jerry cans and jugs. We sailed about 70% of the miles between Puerto Williams and Puerto Montt. For the 30% We motored, we consumed around 40 gallons of gas. We usually kept the engine at half throttle and made 3-4kts in the calms. Our boat is 30 feet and 6 tons. There are places to refuel, especially as you get farther north, but we did not need to bother with it. It was covid and interactions with the towns were difficult. Sailing upwind in Patagonia is a lot of work, but absolutely possible given enough time.
@@sailingdawntreader thanks for your reply :). 50 gallons on deck is a lot! Not sure we can manage that. Ill have to figure something out. I imagine the boat must be much heavier fully-geared, with water and food, though (i looked up the make of your boat and saw 6 tons was its factory weight). Our boat is 33ft, 4.85 tons (factory weight) but at our last haul-out we found out the boat was 8 tons ^^;;!! My partner & I live aboard, plus that's with 4-5 months worth of food, fuel, plus water etc... 3-4 knots is what I hope to make, I don't expect hull speed. If you reach that speed with full gear on board that's pretty good! I always assumed I'd need more HP to push my boat, but maybe not. Our boat sails well enough into the wind(very close reach), we'd be coming down from the west coast, possibly by way of French Polynesia to avoid having headwinds following the south american coast.

What a beautiful video. Patagonia looks so pristine, remote and peaceful. Thanks for sharing.
Fantastic, a place we seldom see Thanks for showing us.
Wonderful. What a sailing video should be.

Just discovered your channel. What great adventures. Thank you
Beautiful ! It reminds me of the Eastern part of Canada, Labrador, Québec and Newfoundland. Even the beaver, the birds and the snow were there.
Wonderful! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you.
Magical scenery. Thanks for sharing your travels.
I am continually inspired by you guys...what an incredible place, thanks for sharing!

The landscape is wonderful but the lack of people is magical.
Wonderful video... well done.
Amazing!!
Super nicee!!
Pretty epic.
thanks
Bellissimo complimenti Ciaoooooo
👍👍
Perfekt
Sailing to the end of earth.... without a dodger- you guys are total badasses!
Did you guys do any fishing down there?
We fished a little, but not as much as we would have liked. At the time we didn't have much by way of tackle. Definitely hoping to fish more in Alaska.
Superb.
You must have good anchors!
Are there detailed charts?
There are charts, but they very greatly in accuracy.
Wonderful posting. Birgit & I loved the scenery, wildlife and your music selection. Hope to see more vlogs from Dawn Treader.
How's is the refit / re-powering project going in Puerto Penasco?
Was the large large marine rodent a Nutria?

Great vibe, what type of sailboat is that?
Thanks. Dawn Treader is an Allied Seawind 30.
@sailingdawntreader Did you come across any ice in your passage?ie how viable is a fiberglass boat in those latitudes
Si quieres aventura ves al mar de Scotia.

Any chance of an edited version with placenames (especially names of calettas) ?
Is that a James Baldwin dingy
We built the dinghy from plans bought from B and B Yachts in North Carolina.
