Einen Mitsegler hatten wir sehr überraschend auf unserer Überfahrt von Palagruža nach Brindisi. Noch in etwa 30 Seemeilen Entfernung von der italienischen Küste, kommt eine Meise geflogen und fährt ein Stück mit uns mit. Wir haben ihr Wasser gegeben und der Vogel war unglaublich zutraulich, vielleicht ja auch etwas übermüdet? Die Meise ist dann nach einiger Zeit, ausgeruht und frisch gestärkt, wieder munter losgeflogen. Immer wieder können wir Tiere auf unseren Törns beobachten und ich denke wir können auch sehr viel von den Tieren lernen. Dieses und noch mehr Abenteuer erleben wir bei unseren Meilentörns und Segeltrainings mit Skipper Martin ATSea und der Seefahrtsschule ATSea. Skippertraining +plus Einhandmanöver, Segelmanöver, Hafenmanöver und Segelausbildung FB2 Befähigungsnachweis, der österreichische "Segelschein". Starte auch du deine Segelausbildung in einer der führenden Seefahrtsschulen in Tirol mit Skipper Martin und der Seefahrtsschule ATSea. Bereit für neue Abenteuer? www.skipper-martin.com

When you pull into a dock, the fenders gotta come out to protect that shiny hull! 🪢Clove Hitch A very common way to quickly secure fenders to safety lines, or stanchions. 🪢Slipped Clove Hitch Tied the same was as the clove hitch but pulling a loop through at the end This allows you to undo the hitch quicker. We personally don’t use either of the above because we find they can work their way undone if the fenders shift about. We’ve been side-tied when the winds were howling and wanted to ensure those fenders stayed put during aggressive pushes into the dock and came up with our own: 🪢Jibsea Constrictor Sort of just came up with this one as we wanted one that would tighten up on itself. So I guess it’s our version of the Constrictor Knot! Follow @SailingJibsea for more sailing fun!


Another concern for people is police. I haven't many issues with police the entire time I've lived or visited Mexico. My biggest tips: 🗣️ It does help to know Spanish. If you plan on visiting Mexico, take some time to learn. It's not only helpful in sticky situations but also unlocks more experiences of the culture and people, which is the whole point of travel. 👮♀️ Follow the laws. Don't speed or drive like an turd. 🚨 If you do get pulled over, do whatever you can to not bribe the police. Foreigners opting to pay cash directly to police is why people continue to have problems with them. If you get pulled over, ask for an official multa (ticket) and to go to the station to pay it directly. This takes more time, but sometimes insisting on not giving the police officer petty cash will make them drop the issue all together. Finally, don't let the news scare you. Are there certain parts of Mexico that are dangerous? Yes, of course, just like any other country, but Baja is pretty well protected as a tourism hot spot.
