Jackson "Velho Jack" Ribeiro Alves and his wife Angelita Rumor Alves, known as the Família Velho Jack, join host Marina Guedes on episode 231 of Maré Sonora.1:24 The couple, based for a decade in Paraty, built a liveaboard and sailing-content career from a background in automotive mechanics and tattooing. Jack's mechanical training — diesel engines, hydraulics, electrics — gave them the technical self-sufficiency that underpins their reputation for boat maintenance and brokerage, including repeated work on a Fastcat 395 now being delivered to a new owner in Rio de Janeiro. A cold front and cyclone that struck Paraty snapped the mooring line of their boat Onix, which then fouled a schooner and lost its mast — just 12 days before a sailing event they had organized in Paraty.30:12 Despite having no budget, no sponsors, and only three months of planning, they staged the first Regata Biclinc, named in tribute to Amir Klink after receiving his personal permission.45:20 The event aimed to be inclusive and community-focused, filling a gap in Paraty's sailing calendar. They also produced a children's knot-tying book featuring a fictional pirate captain.1:03:15 A second edition of the regata is planned. The mast loss taught them to accept help from their community rather than managing every crisis alone.27:46
