Ep 35: Sailing single-handed from the Azores to Brasil

  • I sail from the Azores to Brazil. This sailing cruise is very challenging in terms of weather navigation as I am sailing near Cape Verde in September. This is the birthplace of hurricanes at this time. Good weather information is crucial to avoid strong winds and storms. After that I'm in the Intertropical Convergence Zone for about 9 degrees of latitude. Luckily, I don't have to motor the entire distance, but can sail every now and then in mostly light winds. My subsequent equator baptism is certainly a personal highlight.
    Enjoy the video!

      As a former seaman on a chemical tankship back in the 1970's and 80's, I can assure you that even if it is hot in the day in the tropics and sub tropics the temperatures at night at sea can be relative cold. Not so bad if you have dry clothes, but in your situation I guess you where both wet and sweath. And in worst case scenario, that's not good at all if you have to stay wet for many days. So good to hear that you will invest in a survivel suit.

    Die Jambo ist ja nun leider gesunken.... Immer wieder die alten Videos hochladen find ich nicht so gut. Wann kommt entlich die Jambo 2.0..... und Du gehst wieder auf neue Reisen???? Natürlich sind die alten Videos wunderschön... Aber es wird langsam Zeit neues zu erforschen...... Grönland wäre doch mal ne gute Idee???? So wie X Sail, es machen....... Mega interessant und es wurde dir sicherlich auch gefallen.😉

    Why is your English play list in reverse order? We want to binge watch all the videos in order from the first to the last but they start with the last one and will not play in correct order. Can you create a play list starting at episode 1 and then 2 and then 3 etc.

    My 2nd video of his now. I don't think I'm gonna subscribe. I want to see AND HEAR the ocean & vicariously experience the journey with him. But this video is too much music, too much face, face & more face. That's not why people like me click on these types of videos.

  • @jasonmcintosh2632

    I love your videos. The adventure you're on is awesome. However... I'm going to give two negative impressions. These are just my opinions. We don't know each other, so just a couple of comments from a stranger... First, I really don't like the music you put in your videos. I personally would rather not have any music in a sailing video, but sometimes, if you're really good at picking out music for a particular occasion, music can make things better. However, these moments are rare. I'd much rather have no music than music that overwhelms the moment. Second, boy you smile a lot. I feel like it's a big forced. If that's your personality, then great. But if you're trying to smile just to appear to be someone you're not, then I'd suggest not doing so. This is just me, but I like people when they really show who they really are. Sometimes they smile, sometimes they're depressed... Show us you. Anyway, these are just my opinions. If they bother you, then I'm sorry. You seem like a great person who I have no desire to "bring down."
    Thank you for your videos and fair winds.

      The rare moments with music are deliberately chosen and I like it. However, music is always a very personal thing. Some people love the music, some don't, some want less music, some more and that is absolutely fine as we are a diverse community. Thank you 😀⛵⛵
