As we expected during our Winter stay in Turkey, there would be storms. We are currently sailing our way South to see as much of the coast as possible. Stopping at a place called Kakova Road we have found a bay to anchor tight for the next 3 days due to a nasty frontal system making its way around the area. Rain, Thunder storms and winds to 35knts (65km/h) . Life on board can be quite uncomfortable in these conditions with rolling swells rocking the yacht side to side causing endless bangs and crashes of lines and equipment being thrown about not to mention the howling sounds the rigging makes in even moderate winds. WE make do with games, music and family time until the weather clears for sailing again.Be sure to check back here for location and track updates https://freedomfamily.nz/locations/where-are-we-now/ --------------------------------------------------- Please consider becoming a Member Supporter and hit the JOIN button.. or just LIKE & SUBSCRIBE!

How to tie a super charged reef knot: the Simple Simon #knots #sailing. Form a bight (loop) and then the easiest way of remembering it is to just use the opposite to the Bowline trick. You know the drill with the rabbit, but backwards ... Down the hole with the working end, round and then back up again. 🔹 This knot is more secure than a reef knot and does not become loose and unravel if it gets jerked around. It also works well with different sized ropes and slippy synthetic, something the Reef can't really claim to do. 🔹 A good one for your Knot Arsenal is the Simon.
