We are The Rookie Sailors, not the saltiest of sea dogs on the ocean. We learn something new about sailing and living aboard every single day and we believe (and hope!) that continues till the day we become landlubbers. Left Denmark in June 2022 and sailed down to warmer climates in The Med now on our way to The Caribbean. We are digital nomads that keep the cruising kitty full with sustainability and advertising work. We write and play music aboard and released our debut album with The Shrines just before we set sail. Freediving, spearfishing and scuba diving makes the mind a happy place. ๐คฟ
60 mile trip in rolly conditions from Barbuda to St. Barth. Naps taken: 2 Curse words said: Maybe 3 ๐ซข Tacks done: 0 Tomorrow time for ๐คฟ๐ฅ๐ข
When you've brewed your own Ginger Beer and find out you still have rum leftover from Barbados ๐ง๐ง๐ฅณ Happy sailor!! ๐
Finally some weather to fly our brand new gennaker again ๐ On route to Antigua.
Tobago Cays ๐คฟ๐ข What a magnificent snorkle spot! Tried to keep a good distance to the turtle but he kept joining us ๐
Beautiful Bequia and a hike to the top ๐โต๏ธ We had our own little four legged tour guide who followed us all the way to the top and back ๐
โ๏ธ Tenerife anchor chilling before the final preparations for the Atlantic crossing starts. We have booked two weeks in Santa Cruz Marina on Tenerife before we leave for Cape Verde, if anyone else is there in November let us know ๐๐คโต๏ธ
Fast (at least for our standards ๐ ) and bumby ride from Rubicon Lanzarote to the top of Tenerife. 2-2.5 meter short and somewhat confused waves made sleep into short naps instead ๐ But we did surf down waves up to 8.9 knots ๐โโ๏ธ Wuhuuu!! If anyone is on Tenerife let us know ๐
If you visit Lanzarote and like to dive be sure to stop by Museo Atlantico - what a special art-dive-reef-spot ๐คฟ๐๐ฆ
