🐬 This is what dreams at sea look like. 😍⛵️ Our crew member Igor captured this incredible footage of a massive pod of dolphins right next to our boat in Fuerteventura. They stayed next to our boat for minutes, delighting every single person on board. It was one of those unforgettable memories that only nature can offer — and the kind we’re lucky to witness on our daily boat excursions. 🌊⚓️ Experience nature up close with our boat tours from Morro Jable.We offer dolphin and whale watching excursions in the beautiful waters of southern Fuerteventura. 🇪🇸💙🤩 Increíble avistamiento de delfines en el sur de Fuerteventura. ¡Qué pasada! 🐬 Así es como se ven los sueños en el mar. 😍⛵️ Nuestro tripulante Igor capturó estas imágenes increíbles de una gran manada de delfines justo al lado de nuestro barco en Fuerteventura. Se quedaron junto a nosotros durante minutos, deleitando a cada persona a bordo. Fue uno de esos recuerdos inolvidables que solo la naturaleza puede regalar, y que tenemos la suerte de presenciar en nuestras excursiones diarias en barco. 🌊⚓️ Vive la naturaleza de cerca con nuestras excursiones en barco desde Morro Jable. Ofrecemos salidas para avistar delfines y ballenas en las hermosas aguas del sur de Fuerteventura. 🇩🇪💙🤩 Unglaubliche Delfinsichtung im Süden von Fuerteventura. Wahnsinn! 🐬 So sehen Träume auf dem Meer aus. 😍⛵️ Unser Crewmitglied Igor hat diese beeindruckenden Aufnahmen einer riesigen Delfinschule direkt neben unserem Boot auf Fuerteventura gemacht. Sie blieben minutenlang neben uns und begeisterten jeden einzelnen an Bord. Es war einer dieser unvergesslichen Momente, die nur die Natur schenken kann – und die wir bei unseren täglichen Bootsausflügen erleben dürfen. 🌊⚓️ Erlebe die Natur hautnah mit unseren Bootstouren ab Morro Jable. Wir bieten Delfin- und Walbeobachtungsausflüge in den wunderschönen Gewässern im Süden von Fuerteventura an. #magicandsailing 👉 Book now in www.magicandsailing.com 📱+34 630 975 023 #fuerteventura #dolphin #boat #wildlife #naturelovers #animalshorts #oceanlife #ocean #delfines #swimming #shortvideo #islascanarias
1) Understanding your energy needs is essential to determine how much solar you need. Start by making an "energy budget". List all your consumers and their daily usage. For example, if your LED lights use 1W per bulb and you have eight bulbs on for 5 hours a day, that would be 8 Watts for 5 hours or (8x5) 40 Wh (Watt hours). I like to use kWh to keep things consistent. 40 Wh = 0.040 kWh. It's a good idea to list what you're using while at anchor and another list of what you're using while underway (for instance, you don't use your autopilot at anchor). Remember to list everything: fridge, freezer, watermaker, autopilot, nav lights, chart plotters, etc. For example, here aboard Athena, with an electric galley, fridge, freezer, watermaker, two computers, etc, we use an average of 5.5 kWh per day. 2) To give you a quick estimate, use https://globalsolaratlas.info/ to find "Global horizontal irradiation" per day for your location. Take your daily energy consumption from step 1 and divide that by the number of solar hours. In the case of Athena, located in the Caribbean, that would be 5.5kWh per day / 5 sun hours = 1.1 kW solar array. Keep in mind that this is a theoretical number that does not take into account the shading or degradation of the panels over time. Let's add 30%. 1.1 x 1.3 = 1.43 kW. You can now divide that number by the panel's Nominal Power output. In the case of Athena, our panels are 400W SunPower panels. 1430W / 400W = 3.6 panels needed to cover our 5.5 kWh per day consumption. 3) Understand that the amount of solar you can install on a small sailboat is limited by the size of the boat and heavily influenced by shading and, of course, the boat's location. The size of the panels might also be defined by the height of your stanchions or the size of an existing solar arch. Figure out where you're able and willing to install panels. That will dictate the size and number of panels. 4) Use Victron Energy's MPPT Calculator to calculate what MPPT is ideally sized for your solar panels and expected output based on location. Based on our experience in the Caribbean, the estimate provided by the guide is reasonable. https://www.victronenergy.com/mppt-calculator. Remember that it's best practice to avoid combining panels with different specs on the same MPPT. #sailboat #sailboatproject #boatwork #saillife #liveaboard #liveaboardlife #saltlife #sailing #sailingadventure #travel ingcouple #livingonaboat #solar #sailboatsolar
Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 37 https://www.scanboat.com/en/17424075 Jeanneau is a French boatyard in Les Herbiers , which has produced yachts since 1957. The founder was Henri Jeanneau, a hardware store owner, who began by producing power boats. Jeanneau specializes in monohulls, but it created a specialist multihull line, Lagoon catamarans. Jeanneau and Lagoon became part of Groupe Beneteau in 1995
Probando calcetín artesano para gennaker Testing a handmade gennaker snuffer. Pedazo de calcetín para el gennaker artesano que me ha fabricado un seguidor del canal. Funciona a la perfección. El snuffer, que es como se conoce en inglés, es una ayuda súper importante en el izado y arriado de velas portantes tales como los spinnakers o spi y los gennakers, ya que las desventa. se tira de un cabo tira-vira y el calcetín baja introduciendo la vela dentro de sí mismo. Al suceder esto, la vela pierde toda la potencia y se iza o arría sin dificultad.
