Dolphin Encounters: A Sailing Adventure in Croatia Croatia, with its crystal-clear waters and picturesque coastline, is a sailor’s paradise. But it’s not just the stunning views that make sailing here unforgettable; it’s the chance to witness one of nature’s most enchanting spectacles – dolphins swimming alongside your boat. The Dolphin’s Domain Dolphins are known to frequent the Croatian coast, particularly in the Adriatic Sea. These intelligent and playful creatures are often spotted near popular sailing destinations such as the islands of Hvar, Korcula, and Mljet. Their presence is a testament to the rich marine biodiversity that thrives in these waters. Sailing with Dolphins Sailing with dolphins is an experience that combines relaxation with excitement. As you glide through the gentle waves, keep an eye out for these graceful mammals. They may approach your boat curiously, leaping and diving in the water around you. It’s a magical moment that connects you with the natural world in a profound way. Tips for Dolphin Watching Stay Quiet: Dolphins are sensitive to noise, so keep conversations low and avoid loud music. Maintain Distance: Respect their space by keeping a safe distance. Never chase or attempt to touch them. Be Patient: Dolphins may not appear immediately. Patience is key to enjoying this natural encounter. Conservation Efforts Croatia has taken steps to protect its marine life, including dolphins. By supporting eco-friendly sailing practices and respecting wildlife regulations, we can ensure that future generations will also have the opportunity to enjoy these incredible encounters. Conclusion Sailing in Croatia offers more than just a journey across the sea; it’s an opportunity to connect with nature and witness the beauty of dolphins in their natural habitat. So next time you set sail, keep your eyes peeled – you might just have a dolphin companion on your voyage!

Screwhead teak plugs in 23 seconds!! Having just replaced around 1000 teak screw head plugs…this was the process.. Unscrew every exposed screw: I used a battery drill driver. Drill the hole deeper: I used a 10mm forstner bit as it fitted the existing holes perfectly and did a tidy job. This is subject to having enough teak left to drill deeper. Fortunately Najad were generous with their teak! Try not to drill as far as the fibreglass. Add sealant and replace the screws: I’ve seen videos where they say the screws were just for construction and you can leave them out. That is probably correct but I’m going for better safe than sorry. If the teak was thinner with no room to drill deeper and replace the screws I’d leave them out as a last chance of getting a few more years out of a worn deck. Sealant to stop any water getting into the deck core. I used a hand screwdriver rather than power to replace them as power was tending to rip out the self tapping screws from the fibreglass. Put glue on the plug: I used a polyurethane foaming wood glue. Epoxy would be very strong but mixing all the batches a big pain if you have lots to do. Try to get more glue on the edges than the base of the plug as I had a couple of plugs pushed out as the glue foamed up. Tap in the plug: I used a standard claw hammer as it’s all I had but I daresay a wooden mallet is recommended but the top of the plug is waste material anyway so it matters not. Cut off the excess: I used a Fein multi tool oscillating saw. Be careful with your angle as you don’t want to gouge the surrounding deck. It took me a few goes to master the technique but was pretty quick when I did. I said the top of the plugs were waste but if you found yourself short a lot of them had enough material left to do more holes. Sand flat: I used a random orbit sander with a worn 80 grit pad. I now have fresh patches all over the deck so, once I’ve completed a couple of caulking touch ups, I’ll give the whole deck a very light sanding. You could just leave the newly sanded plug patches to grey down to match the deck if you preferred. And that’s it…repeat many times! Feel free to ask any questions 😊⛵️ #boatlife #liveaboardsailboat #boatmaintenance #najad #boatrepairs

This chapter of my life has come to an end, so I feel it's only right to close this channel. Thank you for the countless positive feedback, messages, and encouragement I’ve received over the years, and for supporting this journey. And last but not least, although our paths have permanently separated with Kinga and Vera, I thank them for being with me through the most beautiful and most difficult moments of the journey. I’ve collected a life-defining experience aboard Irreversible, which has often come to mind even during my everyday life. This is what gave me the strength to set off once again. You can find my new adventures at the links below. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
