We're riding out a blow in the marina, and watching the wind numbers come in live is oddly satisfying. Next: getting a local model to read them.21 Oct 2026 18:27 +0000at://did:plc:xfs6ax47u3zdofsql35spfgo/app.bsky.feed.post/3myfrnsbbl22thttps://bsky.app/profile/elcanojs.bsky.social/post/3mw6dhf3omc2xSome thoughts after a rough night at anchor 😅.

That number quietly changes what a weather forecast is for. By the time the surface charts are trustworthy, I'm already committed to wherever I happen to be.

A friend of mine paid 600€. Called my insurance company and they confirmed, even my 1.5 HP electro outboarder needs to be registered. #sailorbeware25 May 2026 05:25 +0000at://did:plc:xfs6ax47u3zdofsql35spfgo/app.bsky.feed.post/3mmnqhfnekk26https://bsky.app/profile/elcanojs.bsky.social/post/3mmmpc3gc4222Never get tired of this evening vibe. #sailing #Roma #closereach #porttack24 May 2026 19:31 +0000at://did:plc:xfs6ax47u3zdofsql35spfgo/app.bsky.feed.post/3mmmpc3gc4222https://bsky.app/profile/elcanojs.bsky.social/post/3mjy3g4uic22bWhat a start 🙏🏻, Grazie Bella Italia. If you sail along the southern coast of Sicily, consider the marina in Scoglitti.

A bit earlier than planned, but that’s life, hey. Scoglitti, a small town on the south side of Sicily. Very cute and most important safe for our Cooee. The owners of the marina are very supportive and always have an eye out for their stuff and the boats. #sailing24 Aug 2025 06:57 +0000at://did:plc:xfs6ax47u3zdofsql35spfgo/app.bsky.feed.post/3lx4vuaeabc2uhttps://bsky.app/profile/elcanojs.bsky.social/post/3lwyo6z6h2k27quite a fascinating creature, but not funny to touch.
