Chasing the Wind: SAILING TO MARTINIQUE

This week, we left the stunning Pitons of Saint Lucia and set sail to Martinique. What began as a calm, serene passage grew into a sporty sail! With 20-25kn of wind and big seas, we dodged lobster traps, tacked our way into the anchorage, and were rewarded with a beautiful sunset while we ate charcuterie… does it get any better than that? 🌅🍷
We made it to shore to enjoy our first French pastry of the trip, then picked up our newly repaired sail bag… With an entirely replaced elongated zipper and additional fabric, we’re hoping our less-than-two-year-old Mack Pack sail bag will live on!

Another great video I did have a chuckle when you said three hour sail and joked about are we going to make it,the theme song for Gilligan's Island began to play in my head 😂😂. I never thought much about sail maintenance I would imagine lots to it. The bag looked great. Enjoy your exploration. As always thanks for sharing your adventures

KZbin sailors can be a little over dramatic, hahaha😉😂 There always seems to be something to repair… I just wish the repairs weren’t so expensive! 😅 We hope you’re doing well!

[@angelomazzone7939]

@@HollyandRay we are doing well no where near as much excitement here

[@HopeOfJoe]

Always amazes me that so much poor quality exists not to mention workmanship. Totally happy you got the repairs accomplished. Looks a whole lot better. See you next time.✨ 🌊 💨 ⛵️ 🏝️ 👙 🌞 ✨

It’s frustrating!! We’re happy with the repairs, though. Thanks for watching☺️

I am getting ready to sail from Grenada to Martinique next month. Did you spend any time exploring St. Lucia?

[@HollyandRay]

Not much! We walked around and checked out a few restaurants, but have heard great things about touring the Pitons…
