We make these video's for ourselves, friends & family. But we are happy to share with everybody who is interested, so we appriciate if you watch, like, comment and share to make the channel grow. Thank you!
As our Atlantic adventure is moving on, we look back on when we had still plenty of time: December 2021 in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria!
Before crossing the Atlantic Ocean we spent a whole month in this marina, where we could do a number of boatjobs, enjoying the perfect weather:
anchorchain check and replacing the old rope,
replace the controlswitch for the windlass (anchorwinch),
upgrade our new dinghy with wheels and a complete floorboard,
mounting a permanent boarding/swimming ladder on the stern
(no welding on the boat, just on the ladder itself!)
'write' our homeport Rotterdam on the stern (and a song!)
making extra cockpit shelves, continue sewing doghouse covers,
make even better securings for our backstays.
Meanwhile.... we explore the city, make new (dog)friends, get our COVID-booster vaccination, share the Christmas vibes with lights, decorations and a Sunny Xmas-song, uploaded on Xmas eve.
Before we set sail again to leave Las Palmas, there's music on board Zilveren Maan with our Dutch sailing friends Robin & Angelique!

We are Edgar & Else Wagemakers; together with our ships dog Wickie we sail the Atlantic Ocean on our 47" steel gaff-rigged sailboat, built in 1983 as a cargo sailor.
Check our website www.windbrekersailing.nl for more information, links to our blog and tracking page to see where we are!
During our Atlantic adventure, we choose to be in our 'real time & space', exploring new places and hanging out with (new) friends, over spending the much needed time on sorting out footage and editing video's.
That's why we are very slow with our updates, but they will be there eventually.... promise!
Because of the pandemic and now traveling, I do miss playing music together. But every now and then I meet another musician to play or sing with! And if not, I can record something by myself or use a karaoke-track which almost feels like playing together.
Негізгі бет Plenty of time in Las Palmas!
