    ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
    Hello! We are Holly and Stephane 🇺🇸🇫🇷
    We have made the transition from full-time software professionals from the SF Bay Area to liveaboard sailing explorers who always keep one eye on the weather and our hearts in a song. Our goal is to complete a circumnavigation and we recently transitioned to a performance catamaran and are madly in love with our Outremer 52. We are working with Outremer in France (with the help of Google translate) to launch our boat project and start our journey as sailing vagabonds. While it’s not a race or speedtest, we are doing our first Bluewater crossing this year and we are excited to see AWEN stretch her legs and dance on the water. Join us as we share what we’re learning living without Amazon, (but with Starlink), and attempt this new life of travel and adventure on the ocean. Please be patient with us as we continue to improve our CZcams vlogging skills. Our goal isn’t to make our life a movie, it’s to give back to what others have shared with us, which is why we don’t monetize our channel.

    Great idea getting a skipper to teach you the deep secrets of your boat. And share the night watches...

    Congratulations on your shake down and thank you for sharing the process. Grand Large is beyond awesome. We all know boats have problems from design to construction to installations. They seem to understand that as well.
    Daily vlogs, crazy! We hope to follow.
    Love your decision on professional crew that are teachers. You two are the best.
    Very nice of you to help Outremer at Miami, great relationship right there.

    • @SailingAWEN

    You got me 0:14s in... 'you're going to have to translate for me'..."Oh mighty & great ruler of the seas.." came down to "Offff..." in French! 🤣Perfect! Taking on a Captain sounds like a damn good idea! Saves unnecessary bad times... frustrations on passage are never good. Look at all the knowledge you getting... got to admit, kind of jealous. Enjoy, thanks for taking me with you! Fair winds...

      :-)) Holly worked on the speech and she didn't give me any warning on the type of English being used. Luckily 'Victor' in the video rescued me.
      We'll try to share some of the knowledge gained during those passages.

      @@SailingAWEN Since when does a wife give warnings. Asking for a friend...😂
      You have already shared knowledge. I would also tie a tight bowline at the clew for the same reasoning. As soon as you explained why the big loop, it made instant sense. Why fight wet line, it burns. Thanks again! Fair winds...

      We cannot wait either, but focusing on the challenger of getting out of the Med first ;-)

    Did you watch The Wynns take a test sail on the HH44 sistership hull no 1? The sailmakers and the builders pushed the boat to see what she could do? One hull out of the water!!!! Cat Great Circle did too once, when the Captain was AWOL.

    • @SailingAWEN
      @SailingAWEN  Před 10 měsíci

      Yes, we've been following the The Wynns for years. Excited for them that they will soon get their new boat.
      The Outremer 52 has been pushed quite a bit in the Med. It's reassuring to hear some professional sailors being amazed on how this boat sails in all kind of conditions. We like to know you can go really fast in strong winds and there is still a safety margin.

    Hi team AWEN , I’m so happy for you guys good to see you finally got your hands on your catamaran and I think it’s a great idea what you’re doing hiring skippers to help you on your trip, and I can’t wait to watch your progress across the sea for the first time, keep up the good work. Love your videos , Cliff from Logan City Queensland Australia 🇦🇺🧑🏾‍🦽

    The wisdom of Cat Great Circle is that SHEs the Captain. She learned how to be in charge, and she trusts her skills.

    Amazing - Loving this journey! Look forward to seeing what it’s like on passage with a full boat, with family & pro’s. You guys have a great dynamic, and it’s enjoyable to watch you live out your dream! Hopefully I’ll do the same one day!

    Another great job. It would be so easy to get caught up the excitement of finally taking full control of the boat and just wanting to take off. You guys took the time to follow some sage advice. This passage is a serious step in boat travel. Good for you guys for taking all the precautions to ensure you learn the most about your new boat in the safest manner.

    • @SailingAWEN
