Ep 34: Sailing single-handed from New York to the Azores

From New York I set off single-handed towards South Africa. My first stop are the Azores and after 21 days and 2368 nm I reach Horta. This sailing cruise is affected by the Gulf Stream, but is also characterized by strong winds and calms. As always, I give a good insight into my weather navigation. Of course, I still have no idea that I have embarked on the last big voyage with my Jambo, which will sink in the South Atlantic just over 2 months later.
Enjoy the video!

Oh Martin…I have not watched a single video of yours since your devastating live news some months ago. The love, attention and preparation that you put into Jambo was immeasurable. Now though knowing that you have found a new boat, I feel I can watch Jambo sailing for her last few weeks. Fair winds and good luck with your new expedition boat 👍⛵️👍

Well, I have sailed in 1982 from Stocholm to New York and back with a much smaller yacht Marieholm 26. While on the other side of Atlantic I cruised Caribbean half a year. I say that with modern navigation electronics that is not an adventure at all. It is just offshore sailing. I used paper maps and sextant and cronometer. Nothing else. And I was alone. That was an adventure.

Any idea how they forecast Gulf Stream currents? In one clip you appear to have a preventer rigged with 3 wraps around the boom and later only one loop. Would love to hear your thoughts about preventers
@mjambo697
@mjambo697 Місяць тому
I just get the forecast for the currents, but do not know the methodology behind. I always use a line and tie it to the boom to prevent the boom moving rapidly to the other side and preventing that the boom breaks. Best regards 😀⛵⛵

Hello Martin. Do you have any spare/extra steering? Best regards Håkan, Sweden.
@mjambo697
@mjambo697 Місяць тому
Thank you. Yes, I have a spare motor. Hence, if that fails I can replace it. However, if all has a break down I would use a forces in the sails to steer. Basically, in a downwind situation the forces in the genoa line versus the forces in a bungee and that is steering. I showed it in the vidoe of my first Atlantic Crossing. Beating the wind just requires to fix the the steering wheel in the right position. 😀⛵⛵ ukposts.info/have/v-deo/m4KBg3qtp2-pw4k.html

It's both your home and your life-support system.. I'd like to know why you chose it. I have maybe 50,000 miles in my logbook having been a professional skipper in my early days, boats and equipment have evolved massively over the past 5 decades. Where can I find more information on the boat and how you lost it? Many thanks.. JG

Thank you! I allow my body to sleep as demanded. Predominately, I sleep during the night, but also when I am tired during the day. In total I catch more hours of sleep at sea as at home, but in intervals of 30 min to 3 h depending on the traffic. Actually, that is also called polyphasic sleep and should not be too bad. Chrsitiano Ronaldo does it 5 times per day in intervals of 90 mins. Fair winds 😀⛵⛵
