Our Three Worst Sailing Experiences

And how we've learned from our mistakes (because we all make them!)

Hello to all our Susbtack subscribers!

This week we have a podcast on our three worst sailing experiences- ever.

Nick breaks down each instance, which involved several contributing factors, some of which were mistakes that were made in the planning or preparation stage of the journey. Every sailor makes mistakes, but we like to think that we can learn from our near-misses and avoid making the same error again.

In reverse order, here are the top 3 worst sailing experiences we’ve endured:

  1. Offshore Passage from the Azores to mainland Portugal.

    We have an episode based on this experience, which is linked below if you’d like to watch! As usual, we’re less likely to pick up the camera when we’re truly miserable, and when we are on film, we try and put a positive spin on things- but the truth is, we were all struggling with morale on this passage as we were relentlessly tossed around for days, with very little sleep and no respite from the steep beam seas.
