Sailing from Cape Town to St Helena EP 1

- We finally leave Cape Town after spending 18 months getting Avanti ready for our circumnavigation. With abnormal weather patterns we sail more to the West than the normal route to our first stop, St Helena Island. We quickly get into a routine of cooking, eating, sleeping, being on watch and washing out of a bucket. We eat like kings and savour some amazing sunrises, but what blocked our heads?

Welcome aboard!
Dude! amazing, good luck, will be keeping an eye on your vids.
Appreciate it!
Hey guys - Nice video! Makes me jealous! Your depth gauge isn't broken, because you are not getting a strong return from the bottom in the deep water, it is hearing a false return. once it gets shallow it will work again.
We have figured out when there is strong currents that creatures layers of waters with different temperatures and densities the depth sounder picks up these interfaces between the layers and gives a false reading.
@@sailingavanti4902 How much does that boat cost?
Epic! Well done guys, nicely put together so you can share your experiences. I look forward to the next episode 😊.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Well done, very proud of you all and your amazing adventure
Thank you very much!
Awesome footage filming 🎥, sailing ⛵️
Thanks Rimas
Lekker man! Thanks for sharing. Looking forward to the next one.
Thanks for watching!
Awesome! Ek sien uit na die volgende episode! 🙂
Lekker .
At 1:18 with table Mountain behind you, looks like you're heading well away from St Helena !
Haha good comment, but us sailing yachts very rarely go straight to our destination. Its normally tacking or gybing our way there. Like in this case. We were heading dead west for the first couple of days to have better wind angle a few days later
@@sailingavanti4902 Thanks, yeah I know about tacking.
This is awesome, Keep up the hard work- 1k Subs here we come!
Fingers crossed!
Fantasties. Sonop so oor die kalm water is baie spesiaal. Sien uit na nog!😁👍
Daar kom mooi sunset in die volgende episode!
Very good video with a good story line! Hou van die Afrikaans ☺️
What's a comfortable budget to start sailing as a hobbie with the goal of eventually sailing to other countries?
I have seen boats for R300 000 and some over a million. And you might still need to repair, upgrade or replace a few modules. So R2 million?
Im looking for a realistic entery level amount but strong enough for inter continental voyages.
@@mbusocele1558 Hi. If you buy a boat in South Africa, you could get a cruising monohull (including upgrades) which is capable of crossing an ocean for around R1,300,000. But it highly depends on what equipment and comforts you would like to have onboard. Hope this helps.
Dit lyk so lekker geniet
Dankie Danie
Where do,s your boats name derive from ? Lekker 🇺🇸🇿🇦
Its Italian meaning lets go. Its the original name since it was launched in 2000 so we kept it.
Watse vlae hys jy daar aan die einde?
Hi Erich, Geel is die Q of kwarentyn vlag wat jy huis op aankoms tot jy in geclear is en die ander was St Helena se vlag. Jy noem dit die courtesy vlag, wat jy altyd sal op he van die land waar jy in is. Ons Suid-Afrikaanse vlag hang altyd aan die achterkant van Avanti
Lekke mater, enjoy en hou ons op hoogte!!
Hi julle! Ons maak so! Volgende een sal die week nog op gelaai word
Hi Guys:
Wish you enjoy the adventure as much as you can. It's so exited to have such cure vedios, thanks very much for sharing with us. Each destination, we will donate USD 100 as a kind support. Kind Regards Qiang

Ould love to sail from Cape Town to Scotland one way. No hope in South Africa banana Republic.
Aw no Kevin, we can't wait to get back. We love SA. After being away for 2 and a half years we look back with new found gratitude for out beautiful country and its people
@@sailingavanti4902 high unemployment rate 13 million people. High crime rate. Businesses are closing down.
@@KevinTravis-kw1rr beautiful country, stunning people, quality food at low prices, quality restaurants at a fraction of the cost of overseas, affordable housing, endless opportunities. And guess what we arent even the only country with load shedding. We love SA. Every country has its ups and downs its true, we just prefer to look at the ups instead of focussing on the downs ;) every day can be beautiful if you choose to focus on it.
