Episode 19 | Final Preparations And Go
Dear Winded Voyagers, a big hello from Barcelona!
Galopin and I made the 3 day journey about a week ago. In this episode you'll see that Galopin is finally ready to sail the seas. We make some final adjustments and I stock up on French food before setting off. Me and the gang go to a French Super Bowl party, and watch the end of the game inside Galopin. What a game!!! (if you're a Patriot's fan).
Two days later I'm off down the Catalonian coast at dawn. It was a narrow weather window to take, and an agitated one at that. I hesitated, but must confess that I thought about Tom Brady and his comeback, and it pushed me to have the guts and sail on. And what a journey my first day sailing was! Winded Voyage has begun.
A big thank you to our newest Winded Voyager JasonG! He has made a very generous donation to the project. Formidable hugs and kisses to you JasonG!
Much love to you all, Alex.

You are an inspiration in so many ways to all of us. I miss sailing so much (it's cold in DC), that when I was watching you sail, I felt I was on the boat with you.
Big smiles and a bit of a Tear ( the Tear was for Atlanta) . Your excitement is contagious!
Bon chance Alex!! So cool to see you on your way - all the best and fair winds Nick & Vicks in SA. Ps - hooked up with SV Delos here in Cape Town - awesome to meet them.
