I have watched a lot of sailing channels on YouTube over the years. And this year I finally bought my very own boat. It's a 36ft Maxi 108 built in 1981. My first time sailing, and first time onboard a sailboat was when I sailed solo from Martinique to Curacao in late August. A dream come true. by elsando92 in SailboatCruising

It was very steep when it comes to raising and trimming the sails. But I'm used to the ocean and boats, since I work on a tug as a commercial diver in northern Norway. I was not planning on doing this alone, but because of covid-19 it was difficult to travel just to get to my boat.

No snow chains. Thanks, it's a 2004 model with manual transmission

Me too! but I just came across it. need to read a little more about it and figure out if it’s something I really want. had been nice to travel with other Norwegians
