Had an amazing sail to a secret atoll in the Caribbean!! Such a gorgeous spot 🥵

Yeeeeeeeew! FINALLY FLYING BOTH!! I built a detachable solent stay to fly a storm jib and this incredible red drifter sail that some amazing friends with a sistership gifted to me before leaving. I’ve been waiting for the right conditions to fly both, and it finally happened 🤩 This came at the end of a 27 hour, incredibly rolly, overnight sail from Luperon, DR, to Great Inagua, Bahamas. I’ll tell you what, nothing raises spirits like flying ALL the sail you’re capable of, flying at 8 knots downwind. (See video for my excitement) Fair winds, friends 🤙🏼

We left a squally and confused sea state in San Juan after narrowly sorting clearance papers and vet visits to leave at a reasonable time. But once we set our sails and pointed our bow towards the DR, everything felt better. We had a sizable 8-10 ft swell with a 6-7s period that kept our autopilot working hard, eventually switching over to the hydrovane. Some people were feeling a bit sick, but all in all we kept ourselves together. Not much sleep, but some incredible sunsets, sun rises, and good times aboard Bouboulina 2 ☺️⛵️

Lovely little downwind sail to Isla Palaminos! Hanging here until I drop off crew on the mainland! We made fresh buns too that reaaaaaaally hit the spot 🤤

After months of exploring the USVIs and BVIs, I finally made my way to Culebra, Puerto Rico. Amazing downwind sailing with the whisker pole out 🤘🏼

REGATTA DAYYYYYY - Super fun little race to Great Harbor! Managed to keep up with these big catamarans 😂

Amazing downwind sail to Cane Garden Bay, Tortola 🤘🏼

Burying the rails for about 3 hours on an awesome sail following the Odyssey Sailing Festival Skippers! Rafted up and having an awesome time!!
