Last year I made the decision to branch out of my comfort zone (The Bahamas) and sail to Grenada for hurricane season. The Bahamas is not an easy place to leave, but eventually a beautiful weather window approached and it was time to really leave. Not only was I leaving a place I called home, but I was heading offshore for multiple days alone! My longest single-handed passage up until this point was 36-40 hours and now I was going for multiple days AND into one of the most feared passages; the Mona Passage. Join in the fun to see what 650 nm and 5.5 days offshore looks like.

Hi Lauren. Don't know if you'll see this post. I'm the guy trying to beat cancer...trying. I barely have the strength to drive, much less sail...so I love your videos. Today I spent 60 minutes getting treatments and I watched this video. I was smiling so much that my doctors asked what I was watching. I told them it is the miracle lady and that watching you is the best treatment I could receive. Both of them smiled and said I should keep watching your videos. So, you might say that it's doctor's orders! 😂 Thanks for bringing a bright moment to a life that's fighting to survive.

Hi Lauren, you are taking the electrical issues with your boat way too lightly. You have loose wires that produce sparks every time they connect and disconnect and a flammable gas leak. That is a recipe for disaster. You need to go over your entire electrical system, and make sure everything is secure. Twisted and taped connections are not acceptable. Also another simple thing you can do is get yourself some standard cheap household smoke detectors and put one in each separate area of your boat. I watched a video a few months ago where a professional Sailor's boat went up in flames within 10 minutes them noticing smoke. They went on about if they had noticed that sooner they might have been able to do something. There was not one mention of a smoke detector. Do yourself a favour and get some on your boat as soon as possible, and fix that wiring properly! You seem like a beautiful person on a beautiful adventure and I'd hate to see it and in some kind of disaster or you. I'm looking to be on a similar adventure soon. Hopefully one day our paths will cross. Good luck in everything!

To many little failures. You need to get them fixed. Major failures happen when you have lots of little failures added up

I think this woman is beautiful but beyond that she has GREAT COURAGE to sale the ocean ALONE.

@wjohnsonism

I fly over the Caribbean for work dodging those very same Thunderstorms. I see tiny specs of sailors from the safety of a jet and couldn’t imagine being down there being unable to outrun them. Total respect.

@sandtowalk

Are you worried about pirates in the area and do you have a defensive weapon

I started following you about a month ago and you are amazing! I have lived an extremely good life of adventure. I've canoed from Pennsylvania to New Orleans and the Gulf of Mexico. I've hiked the entire Appalachian Trail twice. I've hiked 1000 miles of the Pacific Crest Trail. I have over 27,000 miles of canoeing under my belt and have been in the Arctic Circle canoeing twice. I have raced motorcycles professionally and raced canoes in the National Championships. I have completed a 1000 mile bicycle trip. I have lived on an island off shore of Florida for 5 years. I was a Paramedic for 45 years and a white water raft guide for 35 years as my part time job. I have a degree in Photography and Photojournalism and yet at 70 years old my life seems so safe and vanilla compared to what you are doing! I love your videos, thank you for taking us along. Good luck with your trips, and your sailing. Stay safe and happy and I can't wait for your next video. BTW, the first time that I hiked the A.T. my Manx cat rode on top of my backpack and to date is the only cat to do the entire trail. His name was Ziggy and he looked a lot like your cat Mako but with just a 2" tail.

@davestuart8864

The adventures of Lauren and Mako!! Thank you for taking us along 😊 god bless and stay safe ❤❤

@Cturnerwrite

So much happiness in my heart for you and Mako and this major accomplishment at such a young age! You are a superstar! Doc

@user-pl4ot1hv5j

I can’t believe but I watched the entire video and was glued to the screen!! I’ve sailed a lot on Lake Michigan and so impressed by your knowledge of sailing - it’s a lot of details and very involved to do it solo !! I really enjoyed it and keep on sailing ! From Chicago !!

@studioduco4968

I watched this episode with quite a vibe all over me. You are such a pro. This is what you've been preparing for all along, you were born for this and it shows. You are glowing. Have fun out there!

@johnclayburn3222

Love watching your channel. Especially how honest and open you are with us! Best wishes! ❤

@glenn65

Respect Lauren ,for overcomming all those problems with your boat.

@stewartspeer1

You have my total admiration at your positive energy and enthusiasm for your sailing life. Nothing seems to stop you and you overcome trouble. Stay safe you inspirational person. 😘

@tahoe4beauty

This is my introduction video to meeting Lauren Landers; talk about a hand fitting a glove...you fit the sailing life as perfectly as anyone I've ever seen. Your movements raising the dink & anchor, walking about, line handling, how your lines get coiled & stowed, just everything speaks to the great teachers and how passionately you had to have listened, watched, and are now doing. I love your boat, wardrobe, attitude, thinking, and lest we forget the very brave kitty "Mako"! I love seeing you out there hundreds of miles from land rail-in the-water calm.. beaming back your beautiful radiant smile--> for the whole world--> to treasure! God Bless You Darling ~ ❤ Always remember that all important first lesson.... don't scratch the anchor ⚓
