Winded Voyage 3 | Episode 39 | The Sailor's Plans Are Written In Sand
Carnaval is finally over and I have another friend come to visit me and Galopin. Laura from Marina Lanzarote. She came to stay a few days before sailing a charte boat back to Lanzarote island. But will she? We go for a sail, makes me French food and we try Russian Borscht with Oleg. Then the weather gets interesting.

Many stories unfold here in Cabo Verde. Like the women friends who show up to let loose on Galopin. A strange lobster called a Locust Lobster. And a boat on its way across the ocean that ended up sinking just a few miles away from Mindelo. What happened?

Episode 16 takes you into the realm of my sailing studies, The Science Of Sailing. Just a few more days left before my Swiss Maritime license exam, I do the most to cram, but also get a real understanding of navigation, charts tides and much much more. We also take a break to go out and appreciate the mellow yellow Colza fields of Spring.

I'm back on dear old Galopin. And it's a good thing, he seemed to have missed me, and I sure missed him. I hang out with some friends I met through YouTube. Socializing thanks to social media. Dan comes down with his girlfriend for a short visit and we sail to Papagayo. We also go and visit Jean Yves at his house where I try Mussels Gratinée.
And finally, we go off the beaten path to explore a remote beach and off the grid village.

There's no need to talk when sailing the Atlantic Ocean in West Africa. We sailed 475 nautical miles in three days and nights. One of the best sailing experiences I have had with my 1984 40ft Jeanneau SunFizz. Galopin was a beast on this passage.

Living aboard my sailboat in Mindelo Cape Verde Africa, I meet all sorts of interesting people. And so, you will meet Thomas and Peter, two German sailors who arrived here from The Gambia Africa a few months ago. They've got their stories to tell. As well you'll get a close up demonstration on how to eat a mango Cape Verdean style by beautiful Wendy. It's all in this weeks episode, Two Germans One Girl & A Mango.

In Episode 7, it was my first time alone on Galopin for a few days. You'll see that I took full advantage of my new little domain. The sound system was up and the shots were flowing for my first night aboard alone. The town of Port Leucate is also pretty empty and desolate dur ing the off season, but the beauty shines even though it was somewhat sad and grey, as well as super windy. A interesting port to begin my Winded Voyage.

We go from the relative calm of of the city of Mindelo where I take care of my friend's boat and we check up on Wendy's little bar. Then we take on the ocean canal between the islands of Sao Vicente and Santa Antao. The ocean there is horribly mean, but we forge on so we can get to the Sao Jao festival. It's an adventure to go from the city to the treacherous ocean. Living and sailing in Cabo Verde Africa.

Would you believe it, I've left Mindelo! Wendy and I sail to Sal Island, about 120nm from Sao Vicente Island. We picked the perfect day and anchored 24hrs later. Wendy finally comes out and we look around, eat and meet a friend with a special touch
