Hayrack boom option A Sparcraft Masts option that allows the mast and stack pack to consume less vertical space. This one is another upgrade and another one we will have on Mira. We originally thought about the in-boom furling option, but when this option was added, we changed our minds. Advantages: Allows the boom to be lowered (and with changes to how the spinnaker halyard exits) the mast can get below 65’ from the water (ICW bridge compliant) with no change to sail area Wider sail flaking area which makes putting the sail away easier This also allows the lazy jacks to attach further outboard on the boom, making snagging battens while hoisting way less likely Disadvantages It cost more. Way less than the inboom furling system, but still about a $4k upgrade

There’s a typhoon in the forecast—at least according to one of the weather models—and it could sweep right over Amami next week. So it’s prep time aboard Wahine. Today I’m taking down the jib sail, adding fenders, securing gear, and making sure both inside and out are storm-ready. It’s a strangely calm and beautiful morning. Perfect weather… for storm prep. ANd a pleasant break from writing. Living on a boat along in a Bay by a remote Japanese village means you don’t just watch the forecast, you respect it. Join me for a short glimpse into the practical side of slow living at sea: a mix of solitude, muscle memory, and quiet readiness. 🎥 Shot on location in Buren Village, Amami Oshima 🌸 Part of the Never Too Late Longevity Project 📚 From the author of A Journey Beyond the Blue Zone #TyphoonPrep #BoatLifeJapan #AmamiOshima #SailingJapan #RemoteIslandLife #NeverTooLate #PacificSolo #SoloSailing #StormReady #CalmBeforeTheStorm #JibSail #TyphoonSeason #JapanWeather #LifeAtSea #BlueZoneJapan #boatlife #japan #solosailor
