Salvaged Part Fixed My Boat & Raclette in Africa Watching The World Cup Watch Games in Dakar S8E04
Hello Winded Voyagers.
Now that Cabo Verde is all the rage, I'm still locked out of my account. Just had another failed attempt according to YT instructions. My videos would get tons of views now, thanks to the heroics of the Blue Sharks. Oh well. Meanwhile back here in Dakar, thhis is what's happening.
"They say nothing is impossible," and that proved true in Dakar. Facing a broken genoa furler with destroyed bearings, I thought I was stuck. Instead, the local sailing community rallied, retrieving a working unit from a yacht that sank in Cabo Verde. This video documents the entire process: from the gym-like effort of cranking the mast down to the precision installation by Dialo.
Beyond the boat work, experience the vibrant culture of Dakar through the eyes of a visitor—celebrating with friends at a beach bar, supporting local artists, and witnessing history as Cabo Verde shuts out Spain in the World Cup. Plus, discover why Senegal went "full Swiss" for the next match at the residence of the Swiss Ambassador.
Let's go Swiss, give vengeance to Cabo Verde and Egypt and send FIFA's darling home.
Much love from Dakar
