You have probably noticed that I am sharing my first videos about how I prepared myself and my boat for my circumnavigation. These videos were originally in Dutch, and I am now creating new versions with more explanation and an English voice-over to take you with me on my preparation journey. In May, after cyclone season, I’ll be sailing on toward South Africa and sharing new videos from sea again. Thank you for following along and being part of this journey. If you’re curious about preparing for a circumnavigation — mentally or practically — ask me anything in the comments. I’d love to connect.

Some of us are back on the water this week. It may not be for high-octane racing, but for spending time with the family. How are you #activeonthewater ? With thanks to the Totterdell Family.

PREPARING YOUR LINES: Singlehanded Docking Stern To with Lazy Lines When docking your aim is to reduce the amount of time it takes to get your control line on . Here in video 5 Nick gives great practical tips to make it easier on both you and the person on the dock. Video 5 in Nicks step by step process getting set up and ready for Singlehanded Docking Stern To with Lazy Lines. =========================== TRANSCRIPT I didn't explain it. Just before we do this instead of having the whole line coiled to throw to the guy on the dock. Depending on the system on the dock. It could be a bollard or a ring. Quite often in the marinas like today it's a ring. So if you throw him the whole line, he's got to then find the end, untangle what you threw him, feed it through the ring and get it back to you. What you want to do when you're docking on your own or at any time is to reduce the amount of time it takes to get your control line on. So by throwing him just a manageable amount of line there he can get the end and feed it through and the slack will run out nice and easy =========================== Filmed and Edited by Mahina Hathaway and Nick Hathaway, 45 Degrees Sailing Looking to sail in Croatia?
