Fran and Damián depart a marina aboard their boat Blue Prince, navigating a shallow, low-riddled exit channel in rainy conditions before anchoring in a protected bay.Watch The departure requires careful route planning around extensive shoals visible on the chartplotter; Damián walks through the hazards on screen, identifying sand patches as the best holding for the anchor.3:11 A communication error with marina staff about a repositioned buoy causes brief confusion on the way out, and a fleet of roughly 15 unsupervised Optimist dinghies crossing the main channel adds to the chaos.7:42 Once anchored, they monitor for drag using a GPS anchor alarm and Damián dives with a mask to visually confirm the anchor is set.10:55 Over several days at anchor — identified as somewhere in the Caribbean — they troubleshoot an outboard motor with excess oil, raise and lower it nightly for security, make dinghy runs to shore, and clean the hull bottom.31:02 Fran takes a dinghy sailing lesson.47:09 On November 14, 2025, they formally christen the vessel Blue Prince in a ceremony invoking Poseidon, pouring a foam offering and hanging commemorative collars.48:34 The episode documents the unglamorous early rhythm of liveaboard life: daily dinghy logistics, no fixed schedule, and learning by watching neighboring boats maneuver.
