Filip and El Makowski share family cruising through Sailing Tranquilo.
This profile covers earlier videos, boats and journeys. For current voyages and crew updates, refer to the creator’s latest posts.
Boats and projects
The boats below are part of the channel’s earlier story; ownership and equipment may have changed since those episodes.
Boat details
Sailing Tranquilo owns a Hanse 455 which they live on and create their YouTube content.
They upgraded their yacht to a bluewater ocean-capable yacht which took some time but was definitely worth the effort!
They previously had a Beneteau 473
Refits and equipment
Upgrades to their yacht include:
- AIS to detect other ships
- Radar reflector
- 75hp engines (instead of 50hp)
- Rocna 33 anchor with 100m of chain, instead of 60m
- Boom brake (I haven’t seen this on too many other yachts)
Journeys and notable episodes
Places in the story
These locations refer to earlier episodes, not a live position.
They were in Bora Bora.
Earlier sailing journeys
Sailing Tranquilo is no stranger to sailing. They have explored in:
- Australia in the early days including the Whitsundays
- Panama including the Panama Canal
- Galapagos Islands
- The Caribbean and Mediterranean
- Fatu Hiva in the Marquesas
They also did the World ARC in 2017.
Collaborations
Have you seen them on other cruising YouTube channels? I haven’t but do see some synergies between them and Sailing Nandji or even Free Range Sailing.
Notable episodes
Some moments in their journey include:
- Having their engines die in Nevis
- Dragging anchor in Saba
- Losing their steering on passage
Fortunately, they haven’t created any unnecessary drama. All these incidents are just a normal part of the cruising lifestyle.

Is there a verified net-worth figure?
No verified financial disclosure is cited in this profile. The earlier estimate has been removed because a boat’s value, video views and assumed income do not establish someone’s net worth.
