► Las Palmas, almost an unavoidable stopover on the Atlantic route from Europe, welcomed thousands of sailors during the month of November, when the north-easterly trade winds begin to set in. These crews included a total of 1,300 sailors flying the ARC colors (ARC and ARC +) aboard 253 sailboats. During our visits to the pontoons, we got a measure of the Starlink revolution: only one entrant was equipped last year, compared with 80% of the fleet today... The quality of the connections offered by this satellite operator makes it possible to efficiently follow weather developments, keep in touch those ashore and even work as if at the office! For the first time since we’ve been following ocean-going crews, Vincent, aboard Outremer 51 Piment Rouge, will be sharing his transatlantic passage with us via his videos, which we’ll be relaying. Another special feature of this 2023 edition will be the large number of diesel cans strapped to the guardwires: in a context of very light winds, unusual for the season, the engines (authorized with a penalty for the Multihull category) are likely to be much in demand aboard many of the multihulls. After two weeks of seminars, meetings and safety inspections, the atmosphere on the docks was becoming truly electric during the last three days running up to the start. Studying the weather, stocking up on fresh supplies, washing fruit and vegetables - everyone realized that there was an ocean to cross... Some crew members are more Zen than others: the oldest sailor in the ARC, Joff Hutchinson, 89, declared: “I’ve been sailing for 82 years and I’ve always wanted to cross the Atlantic. Now that my sons have retired, there’s no better time”. The start was relaxed, with the fleet setting off in a light southerly breeze and glorious sunshine, guaranteeing a smooth start for everyone to get their sea legs. ► 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!

⛵The OXO method is a simple and effective way to tie a line onto a boat cleat and is often used by boaters to secure their boats in place. Here are the steps to follow: Begin by taking the end of the line and making a small loop, with the standing part of the line on the bottom and the working end on the top. Bring the line's working end down and around the base of the cleat, making an "O" shape. Next, bring the line's working end back up and over the top of the loop, creating an "X" shape. Then, bring the line's working end down and around the base of the cleat again, creating a second "O" shape. Finally, bring the line's working end back up and over the top of the loop again, creating a second "X" shape. To finish, snug up the line by pulling on the standing part of the line and making a few half hitches around one of the horns of the cleat to keep the line securely in place. The result should be a secure and reliable knot that will keep your boat safely moored to the cleat. It is important to remember always to double-check your knots and make sure they are secure before leaving your boat unattended. #sailingexperience #sailinglife #boatlife #short
