We say goodbye to the calm waters of Carriacou, and head south to the tiny Ronde island- make sure to check out drinkag1.com/teulutribe (Free 1-year supply of Vitamin D3+K2+ 5 travel packs- can't beat it really!).

About Us
We are Becka and Zach, a couple who, in 2020, dreamt of sailing off into the big blue. Trouble is- we were in a pandemic, had a university degree to finish, on a student budget, only had ever sailed dingies, oh and didn’t have a boat. The dream seemed not only unrealistic but pretty insane.
However, we worked hard, finished our degrees, worked as many hours as physically possible, saved with all our might, got experience and in March 2022 bought our very own sailboat, Teulu. Having little sailing experience and being a young couple, we have encountered a tonne of hurdles and made plenty of mistakes! but for every downfall, there has always been a reason to dust ourselves off and carry on.
We hope you can join us as we sail around the world and keep #bloodydoingit

Hi both. I discovered your channel 2 weeks ago having returned from our first sailing holiday in Greece. I have watched every episode from the start so I'm nearly up to date! Loving the content, the travelog and of course Teulu. You are very inspiring and so positive. Thank you for sharing your journey and i look forward to travelling along with you (virtually of course😂)

I think that was a good practice test for early Hurricane season. A named storm will get your attention and help you focus, now that you have one early season storm under your belt you will know what needs to be streamlined for the next storm. Hopefully you can just dance around whatever Hurricanes do develop this season. Stay safe, love the channel!

Hi, I love your channel, I did a Atlantic crossing in the mid 90s, it was an incredible experience. A couple of questions: what's your electric outboard? It's super neat. And do you not have paper charts? That makes me super nervous but maybe I'm just an old crusty sailor...
Wow Sailor 👍
W0W! I really enjoyed this episode! Thanx for posting.
For two days I have been binge watching , I have sailed many times and my only regret in life was not to buy boat to sail the Atlantic,go guys. And god speed x😊
Kick 'em Jenny might come from the use of Jenny being an alternate for Genoa jib? If the seas are rough or the winds changing if the jib swings you could be said to be 'kicked' by it? Or from Jenny being used to describe machines, like the 'spinning Jenny' in textile mills?

You are welcome! And yes, very actually. We have a Rocna 20kg as a spare and this is a Delta 40kg, so is a much heavier (but basic style anchor). So far we have had almost 50kts and it didn't budge. I think as long as its oversized, set well, and you have plenty of rode out, you should be great with it

@chrisyarnold6205
Жыл бұрын
It is a line that runs from the rearward end of the boom, can be either side of the boat, to the bow, and back to winch or cleat, to prevent the boom crashing to opposite side of boat (accidental gybe) and pushing the boat off course, or worse still knocking a crewmember overboard. Used when a following wind (a run) could catch opposite side of sail in rough seas. Well , could be explained better, but a safety rope.

@@TeuluTribe The bearfoot doctors highlight the same issue with their Al cruising cat design.. Its about time someone found a effective solution ..
The name "Teulu" had me, continent continental EUropean, wondering Where That From. And how to pronounce. Germans would say "toyloo", Italians "tay-oo-loo" or French and Dutch would say "tölü". In the video you say, if I hear it correctly, "taylee". Dang. OK Google Translate - detect language - and turns out it's Welsh and means "family" and Google's loudspeaker makes it sound like "tooloo". So, which 'eg' has the perferred pronunciation? Gwyndodeg, Powyseg, Dyfedeg, or Gwenhwyseg?
PS: I'm glad Bret didn't turn out to be what was feared it would evolve into.
