30 Days Into Our Patagonia Sailing Expedition - This Is Real Daily Life Onboard [Ep. 130]

Sailing upwind in Patagonia with FPV cameras. Fixing a rigging failure and preventing engine damage by shutting it down and anchoring with no motor in a tight fjord. There is no one to call for help, no escape, we must fix it ourselves. After hundreds of miles of sailing in the remote wilderness things begin to go wrong. Lines break under stress and our engine fails in a tight situation. We bring you onboard to go shorthanded sailing in FPV (First Person View) as we mount headcams and bodycams to capture the truth about sailing in Patagonia. This epic and real footage is what a true bucket list adventure looks like. (Oh, and watch the end for some absolutely amazing underwater video of Patagonian dolphins!) #sailing #survival #wildlife Click Subscribe and Come Along For the Ride™ as we sail around the world and bring you aboard with us as we travel the seven seas!
