This is the first of four videos, of a journey in which you will see how sailing is just fun, although there are always setbacks for which we must be prepared.
Gybes, trimaran of regattas, sighting of dolphins in the wild, some mistakes of the captain and much more is what you will find in this video.
Almost entirely all solo sailing is with load-bearing winds, in this case fin wind. Many gybes performed and different types of trims.
To sail alone it is important to be prepared, sometimes the weather forecasts are not entirely accurate and the wind can rise more than expected, so we will have to curl the mainsail and even roll up half of the genoa. For this reason, it is necessary to have at least some basic sailing concepts.
I hope you enjoy this video where we will sail through a small part of the Mediterranean Sea.
