A family of four transitioned from long-term overland travel to sailing, completing a circumnavigation aboard a 36-foot Trisbal aluminum sailboat with twin lifting keels.15:35 After years of traveling by bicycle, motorcycle, and van through South America, Europe, and Asia, the couple decided to pursue sailing while living in a remote mountain community in China during the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic. Despite having no prior sailing experience, they purchased the French-built vessel and navigated from the Atlantic to the Mediterranean via inland canals, requiring them to unstep the mast.16:21 Their route included the Red Sea, the Indian Ocean, the African coast, and Madagascar, followed by a transatlantic crossing from Namibia to Recife, Brazil, before heading toward Patagonia.18:15 The boat’s lifting keels allow the family to beach the vessel for maintenance.15:38 They emphasize that their transition to sailing followed the same improvisational approach as their previous land-based expeditions, relying on local knowledge and community support to navigate challenging regions.17:46
