LAUNCH POSTPONED? You Won't Believe What We Do Instead! [Ep.89]

Our launch is postponed due to a broken Travel-Lift, so we take a once-in-a-lifetime chance to explore Brazil and check our bucket list. You won't believe how! #sailing #sailboatlife #bucketlist #boatrestoration #itajai The launch of our sailboat after it's repair and restoration is postponed, due to a problem with the boatyard's travel-lift. While making finishing touches to our boats fiberglass repairs, Roxy grabs her camera and gives us a dogs eye view with "Roxy Cam" in a walk around the marina and the river in Itajai. We have a rare chance to check off a bucket list item, motorcycle touring in South America! Our new friends in Itaji loan us a BMW GS1200 touring bike to hit the back roads of southern Brazil. It is amazing. Then we learn about Guinea Fowls and Geckos in our Airbnb. Waking up with coffee in a new place while traveling is always an adventure. Kate also get's a haircut, check out the transformation. Next, with the extra time due to the breakdown in the boatyard, Curtis get's a chance to go mountain biking with his new friend Andre and Kate hits the water to learn to surf in Itajia, Brazil's spectacular surfing waves. Finally we are able to finish up a few last minute tasks, like installing our re-painted steering wheel and inserting the rudder as the boat is finally lifted. We take her for a test run in the river and back her into the dock to begin making preparations to head further south, to Uruguay!

About Us We never intended to become influencers or start a new YouTube sailing channel, but now it is what we do. We love sharing our experience and adventures with you. We have learned to fly the drone and edit videos, trying to produce relaxing and listenable videos for you to sail away and watch at home while having coffee on Sunday mornings. Kate and Curtis both learn how to sail when they were young. Kate was a junior sailor in Opti's and 420's while Curtis went cruising in the Great Lakes with his family. We met while sailing in a Melges 24 regatta and have been sailing together ever since. The first time we went cruising together as a couple was on a friends borrowed J Boats J 105 in the North Channel of Lake Huron and Canada (part of the Great Loop). Those few weeks, and watching other channels like Gone With the Wynns, Sailing Uma, Project Atticus, Delos, Nahoa, and Sailing La Vagabonde, convinced us that the sailing life was for us. We bought our boat, a J Boats J/46, in 2019 after spending years searching for the perfect bluewater sailboat to sail around the world. We were interested in a catamaran and monohulls, but loved the performance cruising design of the J (it is faster than most cruising catamarans). We spent six months refitting her in Rhode Island, before selling our house and cars, quitting our jobs, and leaving land life for good to become digital nomads, with the goal of sailing around the world via Cape Horn. We have since navigated over 12,000 miles together, through storms, big waves, pandemics, and lockdowns. We sailed to Maine, the Bahamas, the Caribbean, Grenada, Sint Maarten, the Azores, Canary Islands, and Brazil, on our way south to Uruguay, Argentina, and Chile to sail around Cape Horn and into the Patagonia fjords.
