All alone in the vast wilderness of the Patagonian Fjords in Chile. Navigating the high latitudes to outrun a huge low pressure system and shore tie into new anchorages in uncharted waters where very few sailors have gone before. This is what our life is like in the remote wilderness, where we are totally on our own, way off the beaten path. Rescue is unlikely if we make a mistake in this area of the Islands of Patagonia where the charts are classified. A small mistake could lead to sinking, injury, or even death. It is all worth it though as we experience true solitude and the sounds of silence! #alone #wilderness #adventure #travel #sailing Now grab a coffee and enjoy a sailing video that we had lots of fun making. Click subscribe and come along for this awesome around the world sailing adventure with us! We are venturing to the most remote parts of the world. Silence and the sounds of water and waves is our ASMR. Relax with us aboard our bluewater sailboat for a new epic travel adventure every Sunday.

We enter the most remote and dangerous waters where there are no charts, big storms, and little chance of rescue. Is this risk worth it to explore one of the worlds most untouched natural places? #sailing #adventure #uncharted There really are no charts in this area. They simply do not exist or they are classified by the government. We must navigate extremely carefully as both our yacht and our lives would be at risk if we have any problems in this area. To make things a bit more challenging we are racing the weather. We must cross this dangerous area of the Pacific Ocean before a huge storm rolls in. Watch as we make this challenging sailing passage in 20 knot winds and 3-4 meter waves, then shore tie in to a new anchorage to prepare for the storm. That being said, do not go sailing in these conditions without being well prepared and able to self rescue. Do not put your life, your sailboat, and the lives of sea rescue personnel are at risk. We are both very experienced sailors and have sailed countless miles in harsh conditions while racing, solo sailing, and doublehanded sailing to prepare for this type of sailing.

It's HURRICANE season in the Caribbean and tropical storms and waves can become part of the every day. We find a suitable weather window that wicks up some amazing sailing to a brand new PARADISE. It's not hurricane Elsa, but we doublehand our racer/cruiser along with our dog Roxy in open blue water as well as between tight island spaces. #Sailing #Sailboat #SailboatLiving #SailboatLife Who are these crazy people? We are Sailing Sweet Ruca! We are going around the world via Cape Horn and the Cape of Good hope in our performance cruising monohull, a J Boats J/46. We used to be sailboat racers, but have turned to the cruising life, along with our sailing dog, Roxy. Come sailing around the world with us and learn how to sail as you go! Other sailing channels we like are Uma, Soulianis, Zatara, Nahoa, Delos, and Doodles (without the sexy Instagram models). We are Kate and Curtis aboard our boat s/v Sweet Ruca.
