Red Sea Sailing Adventure! Hiding from the Wind, Beach Cleanup & Boat Life with Friends

Some people don’t want to rest and just keep heading northwest Sailing straight into the wind Only covering about 50 nautical miles a day —totally exhausting One boat even had its mast break I was just planning to go for a swim And while swimming, I realized I was close to the boat , so I thought I’d go say hi They invited me to stay for breakfast But I didn’t think I had that much time Let me finish filling up with diesel first It’s still slowly Alright, time to hit the road, bringing my fins And these supplies Time for delivery, let’s go Yo everyone While the wind and waves are calm I’m going to tidy up my room While there’s still some wind I’ll open this window and let the breeze in Because wind from the north is dry Hang out the clothes and sheets to air Otherwise, it gets really damp on the boat sometimes Sailing strategy here in the Red Sea is quite interesting We’re sailing northwest all the way But the wind usually comes from the northwest to the north Swinging between 310 and 360 degrees So, how does a sailor head northwest in this case ? Now we’re heading to our next rest stop Because tomorrow’s Saturday and the wind will be strong So we’re heading to Wadi Gemel I heard it’s a really beautiful beach With lots of coral reefs, the Red Sea is famous for them We’ll stay there for a few days Wait for the next good weather window before we leave Calm seas mean time to clean the boat
