Flying Downwind | Bahamas, solo sailing from Acklins Island to Clarence Town, Long Island (60nm).

In this episode of Sailing Mirage, I sail solo from Acklins Island to Long Island, anchoring safely in Clarence Town after a 60 nautical mile passage. Once again, the Bahamas delivered - a powerful downwind sail with winds reaching 25 knots. Mirage truly came alive, lifting and flying effortlessly over the deep blue Bahamian waters. These are the moments when everything feels perfectly aligned - boat, wind, sea, and mind. During the sail, I got a bit sentimental and shared stories about friends and fellow sailors I’ve met over the years. Long passages have a way of bringing memories back - people, conversations, shared anchorages, and brief crossings of paths that somehow leave a lasting mark. Sailing alone gives space for reflection. With the wind pushing hard from behind and miles of open water ahead, thoughts drift naturally to those who’ve been part of the journey - even if only for a short time. The day ended with a safe and peaceful anchorage in Clarence Town, a perfect place to slow down, breathe, and appreciate just how lucky this life at sea really is. If you enjoy real sailing, strong wind, and the human stories behind long voyages - welcome aboard. ⚓ Fair winds, Vlad Sailing Mirage
