Yeah wild hey! We've had it really bad in Malta before too and the boat was filthy but we weren't out sailing in it at the time. It cleared up pretty quickly from memory, the following day it was like nothing had happened

Yeah I believe you, crazy hey! Someone else said it reaches the Amazon in South America which is just wild! But apparently it nourishes it with minerals which is why the Forrest is so incredible!

@mennovanrij9334 2 ай бұрын

All the Canary Islands have their own 'look and feel'. From volcanic black to sub-tropical green. (I think Lanzarote is breathtaking btw). Worth a (re)visit one day.

Good job🎉 FYI at 23:30 that "haze and dust" is sand from the Sahara which also travels the Trade Winds and all the way to South america and nourishing the amazon rainforest with minerals or it wouldn't have become what is is🙏🌿

@SteveEmery-ly1dr 2 ай бұрын

Hey. If you ever run over line, nets etc and they are caught on the prop or shaft. Make sure you pull everything onboard that you can. Pull as tight as you can and cleat off. Can even use the winches to pull and keep pulling as you put into gear. That is if you have to put in gear before diving. Usually this will cut/break the line. With any luck you’ll be free. Putting into gear without tying off will just allow it all to get pulled into the prop.

Oh cool thanks so much for the tips, this will certainly come in handy next time it happens, which it will 😅 it’s only a matter of time 😂

Nice video guys. Glad you made it to the Canary's. I hear they are known for the red Sahara sand blowing in and you've witnessed it. How bad was the clean up I don't think you mentioned that. I understand it's a hit and miss with the anchorages due to the rolly water's. Well you now can stack up for you crossing at Las Palmas. Looking forward to next video

@LeadingtheEscapade 2 ай бұрын

It actually didn’t really make a mess and I do not know how because it was so bad! We’ve had a big mess to clean up a few times in the med, in Malta was the absolute worst!! I guess it’s so close to the Sahara there. We sure can 😍 cheers

@armslength2618 2 ай бұрын

That is SO weird to see people on 'Graciosa, never mind the boats. When I flew from Mirador del Rio launch, it was made clear to every pilot never to attempt the crossing over there, no matter how high you got. At the time there was no way back, being a deserted island with no services of any kind, nor having any launch sites.. And legend had it that the waters were festering with sharks.

@LeadingtheEscapade 2 ай бұрын

No way really? How long ago was this? There’s a town on it now so no longer deserted I guess but I assumed that had been there for a long time, but it’s very close to the north end of Lanzarote, you can canoe across if you want to ☺️ omg I wonder about the sharks though 🦈 😅

@armslength2618 2 ай бұрын

@@LeadingtheEscapade Late '80s, early 90's. Indeed, it is across from the northern razor-back ridge guarding the Mirador launch. Landing field was the Orzola soccer pitch, within easy walking distance to a great fish restaurant in the village of Orzola. There was a big cadre of European HG pilots who went down every winter, as the wind was usually strong, laminar and predictable. I got in my first 3-hour flight along the cliffs of Famara, but there were 5 points around the island from which to launch, depending on the prevailing wind on any particular day. Christmas and/or New Years was always celebrated in the square of San Bartolome. But it never occurred to us that there were actually a bunch of yachties punting around the island shorelines :)

Another great episode! Just wondering do you guys have a boat rule about when you wear pfd’s?

@LeadingtheEscapade 2 ай бұрын

Thank You ☺️ We usually wear our life-jackets when night sailing or if we're off-shore and it's not very calm. Other than that we don't wear them as they can get a little uncomfortable and they're inserted inside our life jackets

Just had a look unfortunately we missed that area as we didn’t have suitable weather and there’s only protected anchorages in one area. Our episodes are behind so were unfortunately not there any longer but would love to go back to canaries one day. Loved it!

We bought it on Amazon ☺️ the little hut one is called WIND-RACING (a natural way of life is the slogan) it’s such a beautiful little bed. It’s cool as you can actually squish down the top and pop the interior cushion ontop, to make a normal bed out of it too!

Oh no you didn’t enjoy it? 😅 I guess a lot of tree’s maybe wouldn’t grow there due to the Barron landscapers that get hit by trade winds on one side of all the islands, however I know half of two of the islands have lush rainforests on them including I believe Tenerife
