Sailing across the Atlantic Ocean from Cape Town South Africa, where my captain passed away last year, while we were sailing around the world, to Namibia. We bring Reghardt with us for the first leg of this offshore passage, and then just Michael and I will sail double handed from Namibia to St Helena, Ascension Island, and then cross to Brazil and the Caribbean.
Sailing Across an Ocean with Patrick Childress was easy, a given...but sailing across the Atlantic Ocean with unfamiliar new crew and a somewhat new Captain....well, that took some getting used to, and still is. I can’t say its easy sailing, but it was nice to sail with plenty of sleep and help. It would have been worse to never have left the dock, for this circumnavigation to not be completed, when I’m so close to the finish line...just a transatlantic crossing and then a little more sailing in the Caribbean and then I’m a female Circumnavigator. No a solo sailor, not quite the captain, but at least aim finishing which means everything to me, as it would to Patrick Childress.
