SDA212 Repairs, Remoras & Raising a Toast

A quick sail to Black Point turns into more repairs, a few unexpected visitors, and a quiet toast to 12,000 of you who keep us going.

In this episode of Sailing Dark Angel we move over to Black Point for a fresh view and a little breathing room. We tackle more of the lightning damage, visit the fish that has claimed our through-hull, and stop to admire a starfish. Then we head to White Point for a swim where a remora latches onto us and we raise a glass of Shipwreck to twelve thousand subscribers.

⚠️ The lightning strike changed everything on Dark Angel, and we’re still rebuilding piece by piece. If you’d like to support the recovery, our GoFundMe is here:
