Another new skilled I leanred since I bouth Stormy: caulking Here is a little definition: Caulk, to (Verb) - To make watertight by driving or caulking (usually loose cotton fibres) into a seam, followed by a coarser fibre material such as oakum then stopping with pitch or putty. Caulking (Calking) - Boat cotton, oakum or other fibres driven into planking seams to make them watertight. The oldest form of caulk consisted of fibrous materials driven into the wedge-shaped seams between boards on wooden boats or ships. So this is what I'm doing to the deck :) IG: @yvonnemarianna.travels Patreon: SailingStormy

Hoy te voy a explicar las diferencias que existen entre la jarcia firme y la jarcia de labor en un aparejo Marconi. Las podemos distinguir a simple vista. La jarcia firme está quieta y la de labor tiene movimiento. Por ejemplo, pertenecen a la jarcia firme los obenques y estays y a la jarcia de labor las drizas y escotas. Los backstays realizan cierto movimiento, pero se les considera jarcia firme.

Check our resort here : https://www.balireply.com/accomodation/north-sulawesi/pulo-cinta/ Known as the Island of Spices, Celebes was once the epitome of Dutch trading route. There were days, its port was crowded with ships and people from far away lands. It was the time of war, when a young Prince of Gorontalo met the beautiful daughter of a Dutch trader. Among the bloodshed and gun powder, against everything they are born into - their forbidden love bloomed in agony. Hidden in the night, under the stars, Pulo Cinta was their secret escape. There, they can be lovers, far from everything that separates them.
