After sailing 32,500 nautical miles around the world I want to give a shout out to my two loyal and exceptional crew members. They never talk back to me, require feeding or fall asleep on watch. In a perfect world they would make cups of tea and wash the dishes but I can't complain. The Aries windvane has kept Fathom on course in all sorts of conditions from 5knots of wind to 50knots of wind, flat seas to tumbling waves, upwind and downwind. I couldn't have got this far without it and have spent many hours watching it do its business without complaint using no electricity and only the power of the wind, a truly fantastic piece of engineering. Secondly the Aquair 100 tow gen. The generator is mounted on the pushpit and the forward motion of the boat spins a metal propeller at the end of 20m of rope. In winds over 15kts the drag created is unimportant and in tandem with the solar panel it keeps the batteries full and the fridge going 24/7. Cheers to both!

Review of the Boss marine radio and marine 6.5 speakers. We started by looking at were we wanted to place the Boss 6.5 marine speakers and radio so that he would get stereo sound and still be able to here them when the ATV is in motion. We then looked at the placement of the Boss marine radio, and want to put the controls as close as we can, but still be part of the atv fiberglass speaker box.

This is how it looked like when I received the incredible news that I’ll be featured in a renowned Sailing Magazine! 😍🤯💃 I was being interviewed about buying my own boat ‘Sirocco’, a 29ft Dufour, and my solo sailing plans last summer. My interview will be published in the spring edition of the Latitudes & Attitudes magazine! This calls for some awesome dance moves! 🤪😂😂💃💃💃 The link to the article excerpt: https://zurl.co/cGUy Wow, can’t stop smiling!
