Sailing Through Challenges with Captain Jorge & Automaxx

Journey with us as we follow the incredible voyage of Captain Jorge Salamanca Lewis, the spirited skipper of the sailboat Esmeralda, on his epic sail from Europe to the Americas.

Adventure Across the Atlantic with a Twist of Wind Power

When Captain Jorge docked in Uruguay, he upgraded Esmeralda with our rugged 400W Automaxx wind generator, setting sail through the challenging South Atlantic, around the formidable Cape Horn, and into the breathtaking channels of Chilean Patagonia. Despite the roughest seas a sailor can face, our wind turbine stood by him—like a steadfast friend on the deck!

A Bump on the High Seas: Real Talk from Captain Jorge

Our brave captain isn’t shy about sailing through storms, nor is he about sharing his experiences. “The equipment has worked well, but we’ve danced a bit with the bearings—there’s been noise and a bit of a struggle turning,” he reports. True to his adventurous spirit, he reached out for a helping hand. While awaiting our response, Jorge and Esmeralda kept sailing, proving that even the toughest sailors need a little backup sometimes.
