Croats love it when visitors make the effort to learn their language. Plus, it doesn’t hurt to say you can speak two languages! Before we get started, let it be known that Croatian is a really tough language to learn – everyone will tell you it’s a complicated language to master, given that accents and feminine/masculine nouns are involved. But, like anything that you set your mind to, when you achieve it, it feels good! Here are some basic phrases to get you started on your journey to mastering the Croatian language: English: Hello Croatian: Bok Sounds Like: Bohk English: How are you? Croatian: Kako ste? Sounds Like: kah-koh steh? English: Do you speak English? Croatian: Govorite li engleski? Sounds Like: goh-voh-ree-teh lee en-glees-kee English: Please Croatian: Molim Sounds Like: moh-leem English: A beer/coffee/tea, please Croatian: Pivo/kavu/čaj, molim Sounds Like: PEE-voh/KAH-voo/CH-ay MOH-leem If you're more of a visual learner, check out our blog with more information on basic Croatian phrases to get you started: https://www.sail-croatia.com/set-sail/resource/basic-croatian-phrases

► Discover our full test in Multihulls World N°199: https://www.multihulls-world.com/review/trimaran/rapido-53xs-a-trimaran-that-competes-with-catamarans ► A pleasant surprise: the first competitor to the Neel formula (three hulls topped by a large nacelle) has been presented at the Cannes Yachting Festival. The Rapido 53XS takes the Morrelli & Melvin hull design of the “classic” 50, using a fixed structure (i.e. not foldable) with an added 1,760 lbs (800 kg) of extra superstructure. The aim of offering a large saloon, 3 comfortable cabins and two bathrooms has been perfectly achieved: the difference in volume between the 50 and the 53XS is striking. The manufacturer could have stuck to this concession to comfort... but no, the appendages have also been completely revised. The draft of the appendages has been calculated so as not to exceed that of the central hull. We’ve organized for a test sail of this new trimaran just after the show. ► Builder: Rapido Trimarans Hull length: 52’10” (16.1 m) Beam: 34’ (10.36 m) Draft: 2.2’ (0.67 m)/12’11” (3.94 m) Light displacement: 20,613lbs (9.35 t) Air draft: 85’ (25.86 m) Mainsail: 1,259 sq ft (117 m²) Solent: 786 sq ft (73 m²) Stay-sail: 268 sq ft (25 m²) Gennaker: 1,615 sq ft (150 m²) Spinnaker: 2,476 sq ft (230 m²) ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 500 multihulls tests!

We've been living aboard Intention for a variety of reasons this past week. It's been GREAT!! We're learning so much about how to live aboard long term, and that of course means eating well.

On 9/11, my wife and I ventured to the Valley of the Temples to see the Byodo-In Temple, a replica of the traditional Japanese style building and temples built to honor immigration of Japanese to the island of Oahu, Hawaii. While there, we got to feed the koi fish, the birds and pray in the temple. Remove your shoes when venturing into the inner hall where Buddha statue stands tall and ominous. This video is of myself grabbing the ram to ring the gong located to the left of the temple.
