Overcoming our BIGGEST #boatlife CHALLENGE Yet to Continue Sailing to Panama | Harbors Unknown Ep 71
Overcoming our BIGGEST #boatlife CHALLENGE Yet to Continue Sailing to Panama | Harbors Unknown Ep 71
We should be sailing right now but instead we are in Great Inagua, the southernmost island in the Bahamas, attempting to fix the headboard on our main sail so we can continue our passage to Panama, where we need to arrive by June 1st, before the start of hurricane season, as mandated by our insurance. That date is just one week away, and if we are able to fix our sail, we have another 800 miles to sail. Apart from a few cruisers, customs and a Morton's salt factory there's not much here. This is our first real test in self reliance, to see if we have what it takes to succeed as cruisers. Watch now to see how we handle this challenge.

If you're new here, Harbors Unknown is the story of two dreamers, Kristin and Fabio Potenti, and our French Bulldog dog Yoda. We sold our home at the beginning of the pandemic (May 27th, 2020) and moved aboard our Seawind 1600 catamaran, Wanderlust, in September, 2020. We're sailing her to Harbors Unknown, to explore the world’s vast cultures through food, a common thread amongst people everywhere. Connecting with people and places through the local cuisine, and showing how those dishes can be cooked on a boat with limited space and resources. We're sharing our adventures as a sailing couple living on a boat and how it’s possible to live an alternative lifestyle that provides freedom and fulfillment. We have set off on our voyage sailing around the world, exploring the beautiful waters of South Florida, the Florida Keys, Bahamas, and the US East Coast. Subscribe now to join our sailing adventure.
