Atlantic Crossing (Part 1)
It was sad goodbyes as Lenny and I flew out of the Canary islands whilst Riley, Jack and Andre do their final preparations for the Atlantic crossing. Sofia invited me to spend some time with her family in the french alps before I flew to Antigua to wait for La Vagabonde to arrive.
Stay tuned for more Atlantic crossing next week.
Love Elay, Riles & Lenny

Oh my goodness you are bringing back memories of all the nude sailing people! When i was a kid we sailed a lot around Tortola as our boat was kept in Sopers Hole while my family lived in Puerto Rico during the school year. I will never forget the naked English kids on Peter Island and all the yachts with waving stark naked sailing folk! circa 1978....
I've just noticed that YouTube has the two latest episodes that haven't come up on here... is patron glitching?
HI Jade! Was not aware of this, are you able to send a screenshot of what you can see on your Patreon account? We will investigate this with Patreon
Could this be La Vagabonde III? popped up in my news feed this morning. https://robbreport.com/motors/marine/sunreef-80-electric-catamaran-1234601074/
Can’t wait for another video. Miss you guys!!!!! ❤️
Does anyone know if there is a search function here on Patreon to search for old episodes? Or is the only way to do so to scroll and scroll?
Just watched this one, didn’t see that you put an external link for those of us having issues. Nice to see the “watch from beginning” link!! Can’t wait for the next one. Atlantic crossing is looking pretty good this go round!
Loved this video. Exciting times!
Hi guys ! Loved the video, as usual !! I just read that Antigua is at level four ( no travel ) ! I hope this doesn’t effect you. And that you guys stay healthy. Also may i ask what happening with the new boat ? I assume no news ,is no news ! It’s just been a couple of weeks since your last live session, and i know you were hoping to get news soon. Sorry if i brought up a sore subject. I was am just wondering if i missed some good news ? If not ill continue to keep my fingers crossed for you. I’m sure it’ll all work out how your hoping it will. Lots of love and Best fishies <*(((((}{
Loved it as usual. Another great movie! 😊⛵
Great episode and long awaited! Also, for the SLV community, highly recommend the documentary Maidentrip. You will love it and you are welcome! (If you haven't seen it already.) Cheers, mates!
This was great. I think what happens when we really realize something which we know and understand logically...like when you were talking about being on a boat in such a big ocean...its when we feel it viscerally, when we feel it in our body, is when we really know it as truth.
Great to see some solid sailing footage again - you guys have done well filling episodes with engaging content when stuck in one location for a while
Riley, as a long time subscriber and patron, I love you, Elayna and Lennie (well, mostly Elayna)! And, I have told you before and I will tell you now ... don't ever sing again!
Hi! These videos are beautiful! So calming and inspirational! I’m studying mathematics and it’s midterms, so this is definitely the best study break getting to watch you guys :)
I love seeing the wake of that cat - it's so fast!
Riley, Glad to see you had help to cross the Atlantic. I can't believe you were going to attempt the trip alone.
Gotta say, that transition from the airport to the plane was sooo smooth. Also I loved the outfits (and lack there of), gave me a good laugh.
Hi La Vagabonde Team, So great to the love and respect among everyone. Very Positive.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
As always, amazing videography and thanks for the early access!
Really enjoyed this video and so glad to see that you planned put the drone up occasionally. Going to be amazing to visualize Riley's pre-journey thoughts re being just a small spot out in the middle of a very vast ocean!
Elay cut a little hair and you got a little fish on the line!!
YES!
Great episode well done. Cheers are you still in Antigua? plans for this season?
Love the Gap Canada t-shirt Andre. Great video can't wait to see more.
Old Salt/Patreon here and i suggest to watch all the old ones as well. Infectious those are what got me hooked! What a interesting life and industry you have pioneered!
We are currently making our way through all the old episodes, everynight at least 4-6 episodes. We are obsessed, i just wanna cuddle baby lenny!!!! Now he is toddler lenny 😊
This video is exceptional guys. I too have watched from the start and would recommend that anyone does the same. General fantastic content and adventures aside - those cinematic zoom in's and HQ sailing shots... ooft 👌 Can't wait to see how this adventure unfolds!
vids fine here in landlocked alberta, a paradise of the mountainous kind...
Haha loved the comment at the end. You guys are still kids (at heart) just doing grown up things. And that's the best way to go through the life.
The separate link worked for me, thanks. Great video and excited to follow this crossing!!
Really loved the video, can’t wait for the next ones!
Really nice vid of the many aspects of prep, planning, provisioning, and sailing!
Thanks guys I’ve got it now. And it said “something has gone wrong, try again later “
Just watched this entire episode. Playback worked fine. (as of 10:50 pm, 2.28 .2021).
Good to hear. Thanks Jack!
Just caught up on the last live video! Fingers crossed for you guys on everything!! Hope to hear from yal again soon
So excited to finally see crossing videos! We had it in real time with the tracker and Elay's "We're having a baby!" video... and then almost three months waiting. You guys are teaching me new levels of patience! Boyos, you look like you're having a grand time. That is perfect. (and on the East Coast, working fine.)
Not working east coast US
Hi Missy, I've added a separate direct link to the video. Can you let me know if that works?
Loved this. All the best.
Working fine in UK
Yep unable to view. I’ll try again in a bit
Hi Martha, I've added a separate direct link to the video. Can you let me know if that works?
Thank you for sharing your adventures. I loved seeing the huge, obnoxious cruise ship at night - what a menace.
Great video guys, it made me feel a bit nostalgic for the early crossing episodes when you guys were “kids”... might have to go back and rewatch them again for the 3rd time 😂😉⛵️🧡🌎
Yes will not play in oz
Hi James, what does it say? Try clicking on the direct link I added at the bottom of the description. I've got friends in Australia that are seeing it ok.
Loved every minute of the beginning of your crossing, guys. You did a great job - I’m sure difficult to film and boat prep at same time - showing the work, discussing route issues and even food provisioning you do to get under way. Fun stuff! Thanks for bringing us along on the trip
Yes
Is anyone having issues with the link?
Yes same here
