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 ⛵

Of all the "sailing" channels I follow, your content remains my favorite after all these years.
Very good Video and you are looking very beautiful ❤❤❤❤❤
The prettiest sailor on the 7 seas😊😊😊😊
Great episode as always.
Cheers from Canada!
... It's a good sign..... 💪💪💪.....
Toujours aussi inspirante. Merci.
I dont think totally on purpose, but you are getting back to your "old" vibe 😀💪💪 you engage your viewer with energy and a story. Top! Keep going !!
Not just German minds that fear devastating injury lol .
But humans will always thirst for adventure.
One of my favorite quotes .
If you think adventure is dangerous , then try routine it's lethal.
Thanks so much !!
It has been wonderful sharing in your adventures these last half dozen or so years. In my old age I've seen so much of the world on YT and G Earth and your channel has been my favorite sailing channel of many I've followed here and there. It's amazing to me the many different perspectives of the world I've been able to enjoy thanks to efforts of special people like yourself, compared to my Nat Geo Mag collection of the last century... Bless you, young lady.
YOU WERE MY START TO WATCHING RUclipsS
As said by other viewers U were the first to get me interested from the beginning n love sharing in yr adventures. Thank-you!!
You really did a phantastic job on this video. I love the opening and how you use the audio to bring the vibe to El Salvador.
Btw On the Oil cap of Hierbabuena it says 710 😂
We all miss you here ❤
Great to see you sailing! Seems like all the sailing channels gave up and decided to do "Build a Boat" channel which has become very boring because fiberglass is fiberglass and welding is welding no matter who does it.
😊😊😊 going loco , before going to acapulco , sounds like a good song title . 😅😅😅
Nice
The ramifications of having extra fuel are almost never as dire as the ramifications of not having enough. Just food for thought.😊
😂😂😂
Du bist einfach eine tolle Frau, Seglerin und Abenteuerin. Ich bewundere echt Deine Fähigkeiten Dich auch mit technischen Problemen und deren Lösungen zu beschäftigen. Ein Vorbild für manche "männliche Segler". Weiterhin gute Reise und viel Glück, Gesundheit und Frieden. Grüsse von den Azoren.
Thank you for the video.
The good old Anchor Alarm.
It's the only reason I could sleep, when several of my friends laid awake some nights worried that they were dragging.
I think they all downloaded the free version after several nasty wind storms, and are enjoying more good nights sleeps.
Yeah, even with the alarm I was quite on the edge. But then there was not much buffer 😂😂😂
So ein schöner Ankerplatz...... Schöne Grüße aus dem Sizilenurlaub..... 😊
Jaaaa, sehr schön war es da! Ich bin froh, dass ich mich rein gequetscht hab
What a great place,and next to it Zipolite Beach. Spend a Lot of time there ,long long ago. Not that turisty then.
Thanks for the Video!!
All the best!!
Hola desde Vienna.☮️🐳🏝️
Now that's a nice little village. I spend the winter in Oaxaca, so I think a littler visit is in order to Puerto Angel. Feeling calm is good. No need to question yourself there. Perhaps you unburdened your German mind last episode, removed the questions by sharing them with us? It's so good to see you in a good place. Sail on solo sailor, (I was a solo sailor too you know, :) )perhaps there's crew in your future.
My favorite channel too... If you like Perto Angel you can always go back there in the future?
Always interesting listening to you and your ideas on making your journeys better . As far as the oil leak on the transmission you have two choices . You can live with it the way it is or a solution . When running the boat under power the rubber in the seal will eventually wear a grove on the shaft it is sealing . There is a product caller saver or speedy sleeve which is a kit with a sleeve which is installed over the shaft where the seal rides . This puts a new seal surface for the seal to run on with out leaking . And I'm sure you know the drill as far as replacing the seal . This may help . Good sailing to you .
I was thinking the same thing about the seal.
As I am certain you know, any groove worn in, pitting, or burr on the shaft can destroy a new seal almost immediately.
I have also seen new old stock seals cracked in the packaging.
I too was going to say the same thing, but also mention that they are stainless steel and if a person spends a little extra money and gets one in 316 stainless steel it will never rust. I always smear a bit of loctite bearing mount on he inside as a sealant.
Carl is a nice boat. Lots of elbow room in the engine bay.
Yessss, love the space in the engine compartment!
Chuffed spent a ton of time there, so their may be fewer running dogs ? In the area she is in now, in the Sea of Cortez, way up near San Felipe, a lady was killed by running dogs. I'm not sure exactly where they are , I should have been paying better attention. But the situation with the dogs happened in the Northern area. I have a friend name Antonio, , Tony, who lives in San Felipe and told all of us ham radio guys about it. That said, he had dinner with the Sea Sheppard crew and loves seeing young people and helping them. I gave his number to one couple and told him about that , and he said that was great.
QUE TENGAS UNA GRAN NAVEGACIO CAPITANA Y KARL ES UN GRAN BARCO MUY GUAPO !!!!! TE MANDO UN GRAN SALUDO DESDE ARGENTINA NIKE !!!!! QUE LA FUERZA TE ACOMPAÑE !!!!!
Du bist Deutsch! Sicherheit für Alles! Und wass machts auch, der Diesel wir gebraucht, wenn nicht Heute, dann Morgen!
Wish you good winds and followings seas
Good seamanship getting these extra diesel jerrycans ! When you were telling how you calculated, I told myself I’ll give a donation if she gets them, and that’s what I will do now 🎉
May your passage be safe and I hope you get some wind to do some sailing. Love you work!
I think you are in love... no idea of who or what.... but your eyes shine..... good luck and good wind...
🤭🤭🤭
buena travesia!!
Glad you are back! Give your nerves a passing grade and maybe don't test them so often
😅😅 not sure I can do that …..
Thanks 👍
A cute little update. I really like to see the mental space you seems to be in. :-)
Me too 😋
Enjoy jueves de pozole in Acapulco 🎉
❤❤❤❤❤
Would be interesting to see your actual fuel calculations. It seems that sailboat engines do not generally consume large amounts of fuel.
❤❤❤❤
Yes, you do seem at peace and looking well. What's up with that? lol! Life plan optimism, new gf/bf? I'd order us a couple of coffees to learn that.
"Connecting with the locals" is my favorite part of travelling! As for the pole game, risk vs reward. I'm sure they've run into the falling issue before. I've noticed that you no longer wear the wooden ring that you had many episodes ago. Did it break or get lost?
It broke 😔 my mom had a “spare” one that she gave to me which was such a sweet and lovely surprise (I had bought those about 15 years ago in Ecuador and had given her one and she still had it) but I broke that one, too 😢😢😢
@@WhiteSpotPirates that's sad to hear. I had a turtle necklace I bought in Belize several years ago and it broke a couple weeks ago. Now I need to go to Belize again to get another.
👏👏👏
Strangely calm? Boat prepped, engine checked, food cooked, Boga walked, spare diesel. The recipe for calm is doing all that prep you have done, that just leaves your German mind to worry about all the things that could possibly happen "out there".....
Haha, well, I usually had stuff prepared, too…but maybe sth has changed within my mind 🤔 on the other hand, I do still contemplate about all the things that could go wrong……just in case 😅
❤😊
You're looked
a little happier in this video. Maybe you're coming out of your slump. When I first started watching you Back when you first got the boat. I thought you were going to start sailing places. When you got the boat fixed. It seems you never left that general area of the world with your cell boat. And I am somewhat disappointed in the adventures that you've had. There are so many places in the Pacific.
That would Stimulate your mind, And make great content. Going around the southern cross would be beautiful! Or even sailling japan Would put you in more of an intellectual Light. And Awesome content. I struggle to find selling channels. That are doing japan. I think it's beautiful over there. Hell, you can even sell back to Germany, Be closer to home! I just think you're suffering where you're at. And think you have so much more in you. Please do not think that I am criticizing you, I just think that you are a very awesome and wonderful person. And I would love to see your shine Very brightly again.
1 like isn't enough
the three most useless things in aviation: runway behind you, gas in the truck, and pee in your bladder. You might find some of this applies to boats. If you don't used the diesel on this trip you'll have it for the next.
😂👍
A horrible job
