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

@sarahdouglas_ makes every boat handling maneuver look easy. There’s no secret that loads of deliberate practice and coaching feedback have helped her achieve this consistency The leeward mark can be a place to either makeup or lose a lot of boats. Just having the basic techniques down can be the difference-maker. Oftentimes traffic will create opportunity as boat handling becomes more important than tactics. Being prepared for the mark rounding makes a big difference. It includes setting up the sail and having a wide entry. The objective is to be sailing on close-hauled as close to the mark as possible without hitting it on the exit. We prioritize the angles over the sheeting. Often mistakes are when people aren’t looking where they are going and attempting to sheet looking at their hands. That doesn’t mean sheeting isn’t important – it’s a skill that requires it’s own practice. We have loads of drills to help improve ‘hand over hand’ sheeting technique while watching where you are going. This dramatically increases results in boat handling techniques, such as the mark rounding. All of our clinics include boat handling techniques. Come down to Mexico for a clinic and we’ll help to dramatically improve your skills in only one week! What is ISA Online? An online course where you can find the best Laser class resources available.

Vaan Yachts have launched a finish on their aluminium catamarans called VIVID ALU which shows the tough and strong aluminium hull blending with sustainable and luxurious cork decking. The large glass surfaces ,glossy roof and rollbar complete the signature Vaan aesthetic. . Vaan Vivid Alu does not have to be repainted. Maintenance is mostly just cleaning, and scratches are simply re-sanded. On top of that, Vivid Alu is at least 100kg lighter than a painted hull.  . #eco #sailing #yacht  #aluminium #design #madeinholland @Vaan
