Practicing the use of radar provide you with an edge when you really need it. We sailed from Sandoy to Hestur (the faroe islands) and the fog prevented us to see the islands. When we were arriving at Hestur, the radar and navionics help us identify the ferry which was heading to Hestur as well, so, we made a U turn to give the ferry priority to head in first. Then, the tide was running fast, so Skipper Chris did the ferry gliding to let us have a smooth and safe entrance.
Taking our headsail down takes hours and requires at least three people. Why do you need to know that? Many new sailing cruisers focus on the physical requirements for sailing, but sailing is only part of the equation. When buying a sailboat it’s important to discover the physical requirements required to service and maintain your boat. If you can’t do it yourself, it’s going to cost money for someone to do it for you. Find out what it takes to sail AND maintain a Bluewater sailboat.
