- "Let's Sail Upwind!!" ...said no one EVER!! ..because it's uncomfortable and things tend to always break!
We beat into the winds to make our way up to the top of the Caribbean Islands and sail upwind from Bequia to St Vincent to St Lucia to Martinique over 3 days!
We manage to explore St Vincent a little and go to Wallilabou Bay where Pirates of the Caribbean was filmed before carrying on with our upwind sailing where we manage to break something on the boat...

Welcome to our Sailing Vlog - Sailing Coco! After 7 years of renovating boats, we restored our Snapdraggon 27, sailed our 33ft Colvic Countess Monohull around the Med and then left London for good once we bought a Lucia 40 Fountaine Pajot Catamaran! We're excited to share our adventures with you and please click the Subscribe Button and Bell if you would like to be notified when we post our latest video!
Or comment underneath! We LOVE hearing from you guys!!
Stay Safe!

Thank you buddy!!! ✌️
Tek kelimeyle muhteşem...
Emeğinize sağlık çok güzel bir video olmuş. 🙏
çok teşekkür ederim. yorumunuz için teşekkürler!
You should do a video about costs of buying and running expenses on a catamaran. May fair winds always be in your sails! Much ❤️
Yess that’s a great idea! We will start planning and working on that one so we can get an idea of what we spend monthly and share!!
Please return to St.Lucia and explore her grandeur when you can. She's such a beautiful island. 💙🌴🌊
Fair winds and following seas ✌️
Yesss we would love to!! It’s 100% on our hit list!!
Thank you!! ♥️♥️

Thank you so much guys!! ♥️
Love your channel... keep up the great work. Fair winds guys 😀
Thank you so much! 😊
Awesome video as always guys! Beautiful scenery! Great to see you on Rons boat with your dad last week Alfie, sea looked bit choppy the next morning and I thought ,"hope they get back ok?". Totally forgetting you've just sailed the Atlantic with epic waves and squalls, a bit of rain and choppiness in southern uk waters is a walk in the park....hahahahaha. #sailingcoco #essentialviewing
Hahaha!! Yeah Alf managed to make it back okay! 😝 Alf said it was great meeting you too!! So glad you enjoyed the vid and hope you’re having a great holiday!!
Your getting into some amazing places on your new boat now .. you’re doing an awesome job . Bahamas and Bimini island some of the best places in the world to visit I’m sure your visiting them places for sure swim with the pigs in the sea it’s all on TH-cam.. I’m from England 🏴 livings in Tennessee I’ve messaged you a few times on your travels.. watch all your shows looks awesome.. happy travels and good luck 👋 watch out for them pirates 🏴☠️ 😆
Yeahh we are loving it! Just reached the Bahamas and omg it is stunning! Will be sure to try and check out Bimini island, thanks for the recommendation!! And yess we can’t wait to see the pigs!!! That’s on the list of this week 🤗🥳
Thank you so much, so glad you enjoy the vids and we always love hearing from you!!
Great video, beautiful place.
Thank you!! ♥️
Hello both of you good to see you again having a good time looks like you have it under control now you go to some of the most beautiful places that last place was nice and I love those Christmas trees I used to raise those until I was about 18 and then I stopped growing them.
Hey Calvin! Thank you so much we are back and in the swing of things again! Hahaha sounds like Alf with the Christmas trees! ☺️
Hi buddy just a quick reminder you have some great equipment including your rib boat .. remember to lock your boat and engine at all times un attended .. I’m addicted on watching sailing videos on TH-cam have been for over ten years nearly every TH-cam channel on sailing have reported their rib boat has been stolen at night or at shore at one point or another.. I know how expensive and inconvenient a missing boat could be .. people even swim from shore take your rib boat although your in paradise lots of these guys desperate for money… I sure you you are aware .. sailing Sunday on TH-cam almost lost their boat last week… that’s a great couple also .. happy sailing ⛵️
Yess thank you for the tip! Our engine is always locked, so hard that we can’t unlock it to fix something 🙈 but yeah that would be a nightmare! Learnt the hard way with leaving a paddleboard dangling on night one so def won’t make that mistake with the dingy! We always lift it up every night and put the rod away! But that is a great point that we should show people actually as I’m sure many can get complacent! Thanks!!!
Another great vid & soundtrack 🕺 Hopefully you don't encounter any hobby horsing in the Caribbean. Fair winds!
Thank you so much!! So glad you enjoyed it 😊
You are helping the locals far more than they are helping you, those small tips are likely their whole families next meal..
Yeah we always buy fruit or bread from the boat boys too to help where we can!
@@SailingCoco And I'm sure they appreciate it x
You can rip up the L plates now Cey, and just concentrate on the apprentice ship , 😂 then Alfie will have nothing to do. 👍
Hahaha I see what he’s doing now!! 🧐 I need to stop being so helpful!!! 😂
