What this video covers
The hosts of Blue Horizon, Thilo and Leonie, detail their transition from living in a DIY tiny house in Germany back to their sailboat in the Caribbean. The tiny house, built on a 10,000-euro trailer with a total investment of approximately 12,000 euros, utilizes an infrared mirror heater that struggles to maintain warmth during sub-zero temperatures. The hosts note that while the tiny house offers more space and stability than a sailboat in summer, it lacks the mobility and climate control of a vessel.
The couple plans to return to their boat in Carriacou, Grenada, to perform refit work before continuing their voyage. Their long-term sailing route includes transiting the Eastern Caribbean toward the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Cuba, and potentially Central American countries like Guatemala and Honduras. They express interest in eventually reaching the Pacific or exploring high-latitude regions, noting a preference for an aluminum monohull or catamaran for future expeditions. Additionally, the hosts confirm an upcoming documentary-style video covering a two-week van-based road trip through Iceland.
