A B.C. couple who died during a sailing trip from Nova Scotia to the Azores left behind multiple videos of their journey.
Brett Clibbery, 70 and Sarah Packwood, 60, left their new home on Saltspring Island in March.
In a video posted to their YouTube channel in which they called themselves “Two blondes on a boat,” the couple announced they would be driving to Nova Scotia in their electric car and embarking on the trip.
“We’re heading out, we’re going on a brand new adventure,” Packwood said in the video.
“It’s probably the biggest adventure of our lives so far.”
Clibbery said they were calling their trip the “Green Odyssey.”
“We’re doing everything we can to show that you can travel without burning fossil fuels,” he said
The last video update from the couple was posted to their Facebook page on June 11.
“We’re away from the Nova Scotia Coast, now we’re 16.6 miles from where we started, which is probably 12 miles in-shore,” Clibbery said in the last update.
They were supposed to arrive in the Azores on July 2, but when they didn’t make it to their destination, a search was launched.
Nova Scotia RCMP says the couple was found deceased in a 10-foot inflatable lifeboat that washed ashore on a remote Island park off the coast of Nova Scotia.
