My goodness!! The waves and storm!! Wow! I would have been crying for sure! LOL. I love the laughing at the song…I’ve heard that version as well and love it! 😅. What an adventure!
Hello there, I just came across your channel and I love it. Question for you why main land Portugal and not the Azores? My husband and I are looking into buying a property in Azores, but mainland is also an option.
on a scale 1 to 10 (1 being a beginer sailor 10 being expert) . what would be min experiance level someone should be too attempt this trip? ..... min size vessel? 35ft? .... thanks for the upload
Well, the boat we had was 31 feet. Dan was a professional sailor and I had already done a double handed Atlantic crossing and had 10,000 miles completed (almost a newby). With only two people, the watches are the most difficult. We did 3 hours on and 3 off. We had tough conditions for a few days but it is really difficult to give you numbers on a scale. We are both technically minded and can fix things.
Awesome journey. You both are so brave! Thanks for sharing!
It was a great adventure 😊

Great Achievement, Very brave. Welldone.

The Azores are a bit too windy and exposed in the winter and property is more expensive. It’s not so easy for family to visit due to limited flights.
@@NearbyVeggies thank you so much for taking the time to answer my question.
Best of luck and I’ll be following your journey.
