Sailing the Atlantic Islands

In the Corona year 2020 I gave up my life in Switzerland to go sailing. But because large parts of the world have become rather unsafe places and a trip across the Atlantic seemed too risky, I chose the Atlantic islands: Madeira, the Azores and later the Canary Islands. My Youtube videos document the journey.

For all those who understand German, there is still my blog at https://meergeschichten.ch

Hi Ronald.
I have watched the first video already and enjoyed it very much. I hope to watch the others over the weekend.
Great job.

Thanks for sharing!

Kind regards,
Charlie.

Hi Ronald,
What is your deck made from? Teak alternative? Looks well.
