This is a quick video showing pics and a few vids from when we first saw and bought Nalu. We're Dutch liveaboards living in the Netherlands. We bought Nalu unseen, having found her through the Amel Yacht Owners Group, and after receiving a ton of (detailed) photos from her owner at the time. We flew to Samos to finalize the sale and take ownership on June 15th, 2024. We took ownership on June 20th and flew home again on June 28th. This video is mostly for friends and family, but feel free to watch it too :D *Links* Amel Yacht Owners Group on FB: https://www.facebook.com/groups/amelyachtowners Our website & blogbook: https://svnalu.eu/ Follow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/svnalu.eu And / or on NoForeignLand: https://www.noforeignland.com/boat/svnalu
Sailing Nalu - Buying our Amel Super Maramu in Samos, Greece (No Broker, No Fuss)
** Please give us a like, it really does help! Thank you :) ** This is a short update because we haven't left Portimão yet due to weather and orcas, en because we posted a video yesterday -- about the Iberian Orcas. These orcas have found themselves at the heart of a growing conflict with humans - sailors mostly, and the situation seems to be escalating. *Watch the video here:* https://youtu.be/ls4jwVStASY?si=lKQDOEZgn7uP3l2m In this short update, we leave the lovely marina of Mazagón and set course for Albufeira. Sadly, the marina denies us entry as they are full, so we anchor next to the marina. Beautiful, but _very_ rolly so we barely sleep. The next morning, we move on to Praia Grande - Vale da Areia anchorage, where we still are. While we wait for a weather- and orca window, we're busy overthinking our options: - Do we keep following the coast all the way up North to Biscay, or - Do we cross orca home grounds at Cabo de São Vicente and stay in deep water all the way to ... - the UK maybe. Meanwhile, we are enjoying this anchorage, meeting the nicest fellow sailors and the beauty of this area. *Want to know more about sv Nalu or her crew?* Visit https://svnalu.eu And follow us on IG: https://www.instagram.com/svnalu.eu #SailboatLife #AmelSuperMaramu #SailingLife #SailingCouple #CruisingLife #SailingAdventure #LiveaboardLife #BluewaterSailing #SailingCommunity #SailingLifestyle #Algarve
