Wha'ts up guys?
Ok, so we arrived in the Marina, and the good thing about having an 8m boat
is that they can haul it out straight away
We arrived at 12 and they gonna take her out of the water at 3pm
And I'm going to use the extra hands I have with me to do a new antifooling paint
Happy about that Henry?
Yeah, I love painting
So you're ready to take the boat out of the water?
Yeah, that's a cool adventure to live!
At least one of us is working :)
Yesterday we started sanding the bottom
I did some epoxy work here and there
Just some minor work, there was some micro cracks, but they don't cause any problem
Because I am not getting leaks inside the boat
but I'm doing small reinforcements
and then go for a layer of epoxy undercoat
and then go for the antifooling paint
We need to do the first layer around midday, to do a second one before night
and the third one tomorrow morning, and we wil be good to go
Let's go for the marking of the waterline
Previously the waterline was there, but it was too low,
now we are raising it a bit everywhere
and we have a new crew! Introduce yourself my friend
Hi, my name is Xavier, I have lost all my belongings
Remember last episode where the boat of my friends came missing for a while?
Well one of them was Xavier, and since he had only one shirt, one short
and his mobile phone when the boat came missing
he settled on board, we gave him clothes and we fed him
And it as great to have him cruising with us, since he is a fine sailor and a great travel companion
Where are you from Xavier? I'm from Marocco
In the first place I used big pots of paint,
but then I had to get a few more small pots, and of course the shop didn't had the same color anymore...
So now I end having 2 different paint colour on the bottom of the boat as well...
So now I have some green, and the grey on the rest of the boat...
I like it
Enjoy
Alright, after 3 days on the dry, the boat goes back in the water
Each time we stop somewhere, we get one more crewmember on board, and this time it's Constanza
With that clean new antifooling, we couldn't wait to go an test it on the water
So the next day, we rounded up the new friends we had made here in Guadeloupe
And went for a short sail to stay on an island over the weekend
Henry is being at his maximum there
Hello everyone, so after a rough passage during which...
...I've been napping
We arrived innnnnn... Gosier Island
we still have ou windsurfing instructor onboard
After a few tacks and an hour and half later, we left the marina that we were getting fed up about
We gonna spend the weekend chilling here
Our friends are joining us, among them is Francois, who is bringing some fish
and we gonna go grill it on the beach tonight
See you soon
We had a bit of a snooze, and now let's go cook dinner on the beach
Barbecue session go!
There is a part of the team
Henry, interview for the french TV
It's gonna be great, we gonna have some fsh and some lobster we caught
All this in aluminum foil on a fire
First steps on Le Gosier island
You think we'll find a nice spot there?
Francisco, what do you think about the lobster?
It's just about to be ready, I think it's gonna be delicious
So captain, what do we have for dinner?
I think we are doing good, we have some zuchinni and onions frying there with some olive oil and garlic
And there I'm burning myself
And after we gonna grill the Mahi-Mahi that Francois went fishing on the fish market of Pointe a Pitre
I heard it's a great fishing spot there
Surprisingly when you fish there, the fish comes directly into the form of filets...
Having a dinghy that works well is amazing!
What are we doing? Going fishing!
We have all the spearfishing equipment here,
and since for once I have a fast dinghy, we gonna go on the other side of the island
It's not with my kayak I would do that
Ready for some lobster?
We came back from fishing empty handed....
So now we gonna try to fish some coconuts
They tend to move more slow and at least we can see them
And I think we just found a nice spot here next to the lighthouse
Hey Hugo, can you grab me one please?
Hope you liked this episode! Stay tuned for the next one
Where we make friends with another sailboat, to explore together the Caribbean
