‘Navigating SWORDFISH FISHING boats in the Messina Strait’ - Ch.21

- čas přidán 3. 07. 2024
- In this episode we tackle the legendary Messina Strait, dodging multiple swordfish fishing (Passerelle) boats, whirlpools, currents and traffic. The Scendente and Bastardi currents made their presence known, but soon enough we were spat out the top in one piece!
Despite losing our orientation ever so slightly whilst behind the wheel(!), we soon set our sights on the beautiful Aeolian Islands just North of Sicily. We anchor off a stinky and steamy elderly volcano, find HOT bubbling springs and a collection of seriously organised fish!
So pour yourself a drink, sit back, relax and set sail on this adventure with us.

Messina Strait. I crossed that a few years ago on a train ferry. You two in a boat with all those currents and traffic ! Brilliant for sure.
Looks stunning, i love watching your adventures 😘
Great to see you back, enjoying your videos, been renovating our boat. due to relaunch in September, currently on a engine replacement, in dodecanese, a mother and daughter team this end, but enjoying your travels and fixing dliemmas. Thank you
Hello!! Awwww a month and daughter duo?! We're very excited to hear this!! Thanks so much for your comment and yes lots of dilemmas, even more this year.. but they do get easier as we learn :) Sending loads of positive vibes for your launch in September, not too much longer now!
How are you guys dealing with 90/180 now you're back on the boat?
Arghh it’s a nightmare! No easy answer. It is possible get visa and residencies, but it’s expensive, hurdles and complicated etc.! This season was filmed a couple of years ago.. we’ve sailed two years now on the 90/180 using some of tactics above.. in real-time we’re now leaving the Med (EU), because essentially we can’t be here! The boat (ironically) has more rights to be here than us!!
@@TheSailingNomads Look forward to seeing the season progress to get tips on how you manage it. All the best for the rest of the voyaging.
@TranquilityOfSolitude thanks so much! Feel free to message if you need any tips… we’re not experts by any stretch, but we know some stuff!
Looks stunning, i love watching your adventures 😘
Thanks for watching 🥰👍🏼
