- In this episode, we make our sailbag repair and re-installation a top priority as well as provisioning before heading off to explore the beautiful island of Hiva oa. After a week in the bay, we set sail for Tahuata to clean the bottom of the boat and enjoy the clear blue water and amazing wildlife.

NEW TO OUR CHANNEL?
We are Eileen and Brown Councill. Welcome to our channel and a glimpse into our NEW life adventure! 2020 was a year of uncertainty and change (for all of us, right?), but we overcame the challenges and decided it was time to chase our dream, to sail around the world! Did I mention that we have very little sailing experience? Before leaving Qingdao, China, our home of 4 years, we sold almost all of our earthly possessions and started our international search to find the right sailboat that we would call "home." After 5 months of unanticipated twists and turns, we found what we were looking for, a used Leopard 44' Catamaran located in St. Lucia.
So, here begins our journey, filled with unmatched excitement and honestly, a bit of trepidation as well. We have much to learn as we travel the world on our floating home and we intend to document that journey and share it with you. We are so glad you have decided to join us, and we hope that you will find our story so compelling that it will inspire you to chase your dreams too!
As a viewer, we consider you to be part of our family and look forward to getting to know you. Don't hesitate to comment on our videos and ask questions. We will do our best to answer every correspondence! All we ask is that you have patience with us as we work really hard to improve our camera/video techniques and ability to tell a story. Hopefully, you will be as BLOWN AWAY from watching, as we are in experiencing and producing our adventures!
If you wish to support our video efforts, all we ask is that you SUBSCRIBE, give a THUMBS UP, and SHARE our videos with your friends!

Hey, did you see what happened to “Sailing Sea Dog”?
No! What happened?
@@SailingBlownAway i can send u link to video. Leopard 58 family cruiser, lightning strike overnight 50 mikes north of Grand Turk left them in the dark, unable to start motors or unable to lower dingy platform. Bow thruster switch stuck open causing thruster to run away until circuit cut. Had to drift all day waiting on tow boat. No injuries 🙏
Wow that’s crazy. What a nightmare but thankfully they are ok. That what is most important. Yes 👏 please send me a link!

Thanks!
Why float your chain?
We need to float it for two reasons. The first is not to damage the coral because as the chain swings, it destroys anything in its path. The second is if we short our chain on a coral and the wind picks up, it could break the chain or damage the boat.
