Step inside the heart of this incredible vessel! We're standing next to a genuine piece of maritime history: a Gardner 6L3 engine that rolled off the line long before WWII ended. Forget modern complexity; this powerhouse has logged between 120,000 and 150,000 hours, even after a couple of rebuilds! It proudly replaced the original three-cylinder Fairbanks Morse, but the real magic is the startup: watch how we use 230 PSI of high-pressure air to coax this mechanical giant into life, manually cycling it before it catches its rhythm. This isn't just an engine; it's a legend that defines incredible longevity and access to every system you can imagine! #TrawlerLife #ClassicYacht #BoatRestoration #ChrisCraft #YachtLens #WoodenBoat #Liveaboard #YachtTour #GardnerDiesel #MarineEngine #GardnerEngine #VintageMachinery #BoatLife #AirStart #MechanicalMarvel #OldSchoolPower #MaritimeHistory

Aquí os contamos todo lo que usamos para una travesía o singladura! Libros, APP,... Al final, piensa que has de mirar todo lo que puedas, para que tu travesía sea lo más segura posible. El mar, es algo que no controlamos, porque dependes de las olas, el viento, el sol,...todo lo antiguo, la NATURALEZA. Y esta a veces, es impredecible. Piensa que un barco, no es un coche. Eso es algo que a muchos, se les olvida. Haz todo lo posible SIEMPRE, por tu SEGURIDAD y la de los que te acompañen. Buena proa, buena mar!!!

BUYING A YACHT IN CROATIA: INSURANCE Insurance can be a challenge. Aquila notes the challenges of finding insurance, being a U.S citizen with a U.S flag boat in a foreign country and how he got it sorted. =========================== HUGE SHOUT OUT to Aquila and Dawn. Amazing couple to partner with in finding them their dream come true yacht in Croatia. Check their Facebook Page out and follow their adventures here: https://www.facebook.com/SailingDektos Listen to more of their story here ➡︎ ➡︎. https://youtu.be/-K4Ehi6SSEw =========================== Transcript Looking for insurance was a huge impact for us. The insurance we went through probably 15 different insurance agencies looking for someone who would insure the crossing for the Atlantic, insure the boat while it was in Croatia. And being a U.S citizen with a U.S flag boat in a foreign country not a lot of people were interested. The tip that we actually got that worked out was from Nick for UNIQUA Insurance and they were super helpful. Easy, it just fell right into place. Then came the mooring in order to have the insurance we had to have a mooring which meant that we would, we had to go back through and call just about every Marina in Croatia which there's a lot! =========================== ⛵️ ⛵️ Looking to buy a yacht in Croatia?
