This week we sail from Kas to Kekova in rough conditions and have to bash upwind to get out of our anchorage! We then sail fast downwind under Genoa alone to the spectacular Kekova islands - which we will share with you next time....

We are very excited to do a grand tour of the first ever Portofino 47 tour - this is the boat that is 6 months ahead of our P52 build so it gives us great insight as to what is likely to follow for us.

We see many of the unique Portofino features, high quality aspects and amazing space in this Portofino 47 foot boat that is designed as a more comfort related spacious boat than the 52 that will also have an upstairs lounge. Enjoy the tour and congratulations to the owners of this one, Al and Aki who will also hopefully enjoy the look around their own boat!!!

Our next Patreon sailing adventure on Expedition Barefoot that will be in Turkey on 9 June - 16 June 2024.... We look forward to having more of you with us this year! Join Patreon if you want to join us for this "Make your Sailing Dreams become Reality" week!

WE ARE STILL WANTING ANYONE THAT HAS MADE A YACHT INSURANCE CLAIM to fill in our Data collection form so we can make the yacht insurance companies accountable and we can share how well or badly they pay out for the claims made.... WE ABSOLUTELY NEED YOUR SUPPORT FOR THIS SO PLEASE ALSO SHARE THIS INFO WITH ANYONE YOU KNOW HAS HAD A CLAIM!

Our Patreon option starts from only $3 per week, and will allow our supporters to enjoy live updates, join us for sailing events in Aegean Greece, May 2024. Then in Dubai Jan 2025 (aboard the new Portofino 52) join us for the launching party and test sails!!! We are also offering boat build tours with sailing off Dubai to share the progress of the P52 build and provide whatever sailing or life discussions that YOU want us to provide during all of these events..... It is a very exciting prospect and we have been requested repeatedly to give advice, take folk sailing, teach sailing techniques etc etc.... So here it is!!!

Any Patreons will have the choice to join us for these events which are usually about 5 days to be up close and personal with Eli and John and learn from their expertise... There will be sailing trips, excursions and chats during the events and the subjects will be designed to suit the participants that will be there. Patreons will receive all the sailing and talks with the Barefoot Doctors without any cost but will only have to cover their own travel, food and accomodation costs.

All Patreon proceeds go to Exqisit Life Foundation to support TUFMINDS Mental Resilience and Suicide Prevention Program worldwide.

Some come Barefoot with us on this exciting journey - now physically and in person with Patreon if you wish!!!

Binge watch and come barefoot with us as we travel and explore the planet, mostly from the water but sometimes through the minds of others as we provide aid and support where needed through the amazing TUFMINDS solutions!

WHAT IS TUFMINDS
The free TUFMINDS program is released as a smartphone program under the Exqisit Life Foundation Charity, a registered not for profit and requires financial support to fund the free program. TUFMINDS saves lives by intervening at the point of suicide and pulling everyone to higher levels of mental resilience, wellbeing and functioning. it also creates better attitudes, relationships, resilience and coping - all very important for sailors facing difficult situations at sea.
