Around 25% of all boating accidents in 2023 were caused by the skipper not keeping a proper lookout or being distracted. Avoid becoming a statistic by employing this simple, proven technique called SCAN to stay alert while boating. Chesapeake Boating Academy's Capt. Sarah Lawrence explains what the acronym SCAN stands for and how to use it on your own boat. 🛥️Want affordable on-water boater education to build new skills or hone the ones you have under the watchful eye of a US Coast Guard licensed captain?

Traversata oceanica Giorno 9 di navigazione L’oceano ci dà il benvenuto in un modo che ancora non avevamo mai visto. Una foschia rossa ci accoglie al nostro ingresso in oceano e da lì non ci lascia più. Il tocco rosso di questa sabbia africana macchia ogni cosa, dal gelcoat alle cime, ai telefoni dimenticati all’aria per qualche minuto. La visibilità è pessima. Infatti non vediamo a mezzo miglio di distanza. Il vento è teso, le onde alte. Quella di oggi sarebbe dovuta essere una partenza in pompa magna, invece è stata molto silenziosa. Camminiamo in punta di piedi ormai da un mese in cerca di una terra che ci sta facendo sudare come non mai. Il mio caro Ulisse, del quale ho letto con passione la trilogia (di Manfredi) lo sa bene. L’emozione di lungo viaggio è solo la punta dell’iceberg e noi, qui, proviamo a comunicarlo ogni giorno. Perciò eccoci qui. Siamo partiti. Davanti a noi 2000 miglia. Siamo pronti. 💪
