Winded Voyage 4 | Episode 31 | Preparing The Boat To Sail Out Of Mindelo Bay

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 23 พ.ย. 2024
- We have visited 4 out of 10 Cape Verde islands. And now we're preparing the boat to sail out Mindelo Bay. Next is the eastern most island called Sal. After about 7 months here, Galopin has grown quite a bit of undergrowth on its hull and it must be cleaned. He also needs a new engine battery, and the mast and rigging must also be cleaned and checked. This is where the help of friends come in play. Friends like Peixe and Koive who really clean up. And we must say "au revoir" to the live aboard folks who make up our anchorage community. We made wonderful friends in Mindelo, but it's time to go and continue the voyage and make new friends.

Alex, best part of your vids is how you share friendship. Each are encouraging. Wonderful people.
You've been with me a long time Todd. And you know that's what I believe traveling is about. Being with the people, not just seeing the sights. And Cape Verdeans have blown me away with their kindness and friendship.
Great vid! Shows what it is like to make connections and move on... part of sailing around...touching...
You been aboard since the beginning and seen how I stay in places I visit. People are part of the voyage. So many cruisers just sail through Cape Verde. It's like traveling thru countries by plane and staying at airports.
Alexandre,
Another great production. You are very likely the best that I have seen. Everything is flawlessly edited. You are very skilled. Thank you!
Many thanks Cs. I wished I had better sound for the music and a few more camera angles. But at least I capture something. Even though the sound sucked, the music was still great.
Hi Alex and Nat,another great episode,more great music,and all the terrific people you have met.
Galopin is like a new boat now,thanks to a combined effort from everyone 👍
Best wishes,see you next week 😊
Thanks Wayne. GAlopin has been so happy since. He glides and is not such a Rascal. You'll see in the next episode.
I like/notice you used Harken Grease to service your winches... best ever after I saw démonstration from Harken’s lead sale person for years.... he’s a boat builder/ sailor expert, knows what he is doing.... it looks like so do you... it looks like you take care of your girl aka Gallopin so well...
If you dont take care of your boat, it wont take care of you. Winch wouldn't lock because it needed attention. Got to use water proof grease. Stuff holds out good. Use it for other things. BTW my Galopin is not a girl, certainly not a lady. He's a rascal and lets you know it when you dont care for him. He's also sweet when you give him a shave. C'est un bateau. Un voilier. Un navire. Pas une;-) barque
My Salute to Peixe! Thank you for being with us and for your hospitality!
Peixe is a real good man. Hope he read your comment.
I guess I am pretty randomly asking but does anybody know a good website to stream newly released series online ?
@Kyng Khari lately I have been using FlixZone. Just search on google for it =)
@Benson Kayden Yea, have been using flixzone for since march myself :D
@Benson Kayden Yup, I've been using Flixzone for months myself :)
Vinegar all the way, baby!
Just flushed my toilet yesterdat with the magical ingredient. Saw lots of calcium float away.
Love the fact your moving on to more adventures.
Staying on in one place allows me to say "I know Cabo Verde". But not really, just anchored off of Boavista. Island 6 of 10 for me.
@@WindedVoyage I could not agree more and love the fact you want to know the people like brothers and sisters. Content wise I am looking forward to watch you learn and get to know new people. 😀
I just left a little village when it felt I was just getting to know folks. You need a bit of time to be accepted.
16 years old!? That's amazing life from a battery.
Marine batteries arent cheap for a reason... but 16 years ... wow!!!
I think it was a car battery
Another great production.. Peixe is a good man...
Peixe is The Man! Love that guy like a brother
The breath of life is in the sunlight and the hand of life is in the Wind Voyage, it is hard to say "see you" to a friend, if both know they have to travel onward.
Saying see you is better than saying good bye. And I will see Peixe again, if all goes well.
great adventure!
Alex & Nat's Big Adventure:-)
just gets better and better. well done sir. When can we charter you?
Never. (Not for hire:-) But you're most welcome to come aboard as friends. Galopin hates clients, but loves fun people and sexy girls.
Another killer video!
Thanks Fordyce
Nice capetin⛵ 👍😍😚😚😚💑🌴💐💐🙋
Manera
Need some muratic acid to soak some of those winch parts in.
What is that? Do you think I can find it here in Cape Verde?
Yeah . A fabulous stay in Mandelo but definitely time to move on
Mindelo has been a favorite port of call for centuries to all kinds of sailors. Proud to be one of them.
Cool video bro
Thanks Alsino.
Sounds like a cricket when we listened for the clicky sound. ;)
It's a beautiful sound. But when your hear no clicking, its a bad feeling. The sheet won't block!
So TWO beautiful women in one video now... 😍 And people wonder why I love chocolate... 😁
Would have loved to have been the Oreo filling;-)
@@WindedVoyage every white boy's dream.... 😍
@@terrycavender Certainly was mine, and now it's real and better than the dream.
@@WindedVoyage it always is... 😎
Didn't re-pack the bearings?
Not sure what you mean?
No rain for two years. You should see Norway ( no bullshit, just sailing and rain )
Wind and dust here. Today Galopin is again totally dusty and growing a new beard. No bullshit! Met a cool young Norwegian in Middle. He sails a boat called Chilli. Look him up.
H
2 years no rain.... and here I am 10degrees raining MELBOURNE AUSTRALIA he coldest and rainiest city in Australia... o man...

Just read a book about an Irish family in SW Australia. Long family saga called Four Fires. Found it at a used bookstore in Mindelo. Really enjoyed it!
