SDA214 Wind, Waves and a Whole Lot of Mast Time
Big Majors gave us wind, waves and no shortage of work. An anchor dive, a stack of mast climbs, and slowly but surely our instruments are coming back to life.
In this episode of Sailing Dark Angel we return to Big Majors Cay to keep tackling the list left behind by our lightning strike. The winds turn, the chop builds and I end up diving the anchor before Captain Dave climbs the mast again and again to install our new wind transducer.
⚠️ The lightning strike changed everything on Dark Angel, and we’re still rebuilding piece by piece. If you’d like to support the recovery, our GoFundMe is here:
