DIY Winch Covers & A Sail To A Magical Mexican Village with Friends 🌊⛵

🚤 In our latest adventure, Petra takes on a new challenge—learning to sew custom winch covers for our boat!

But it’s not just about sewing; she also had to figure out how to fix an old, temperamental sewing machine. Meanwhile, we welcome our first official guest onboard and set sail from Puerto Vallarta across the beautiful Banderas Bay to the enchanting village of Yelapa. Along the way, we’re treated to breathtaking encounters with dolphins and whales. 🌊

🏝️ Highlights:

Sewing Winch Covers: Petra, a complete sewing novice, dives into making winch covers, repairing our sewing machine along the way, with some help from friends near and far.

First Onboard Guest: An old friend joins us as our first official guest, making the experience even more special as we share our sailing life.

Exploring Puerto Vallarta: We ditch our work clothes, put on some city clothes and spend the day enjoying Puerto Vallarta.

Sailing to Yelapa: Crossing Banderas Bay, we navigate to Yelapa—a hidden gem with a rich history. Once home to the indigenous Wixárika people, this secluded village remains a blend of ancient tradition and modern serenity. Accessible only by boat, Yelapa offers a glimpse into a time where nature and culture were intertwined.

Wildlife Encounters: Dolphins danced in our wake, and we spotted majestic whales, making the sail to Yelapa truly unforgettable.

⚓ From Sewing to Sailing:

Petra’s sewing adventure was just the start. With a little determination and a lot of humor, she crafted the perfect winch covers while learning to troubleshoot an old sewing machine. Sailing with our first guest was a milestone, and the journey to Yelapa—filled with natural beauty and rich history—made it all the more special. The dolphins and whales were the icing on the cake!
