Vela was out of the water at 10:45, we started removing the leaky thru hull at 11:48, and by 13:40, the new thru hull was in place. Now, we’ve been waiting approx for 3 hours for the epoxy to cure so we can apply a couple of layers of primer! And tomorrow some antifouling 🎨 SUPER EFFICIENT! What do you think? We’re glad we had done this 14 times before tackling this thru hull with limited time. We’re happy to offer tips and guidance if you need it! Just send us a DM 😋 #sail #sailboat #sailing #jordomsejling #circumnavigation #båd #sejl #sejlbåd #sejler #sailboat #shortoftheday
Underwater area of sailing boat on video is covered with so called blanket. Last time bottom was cleaned about year ago. The idea is that on the so-called blanket, marine growth will be less caught, and what gets caught will be easy to remove. The result of the test is that a lot of marine growth was collected, which even the high-pressure washing could not remove. It had to be removed with scraper.
A couple of novice boaters find themselves facing a tropical storm aboard their DIY solar electric catamaran. Can their 37' 1986 Prout Snowgoose Elite powered by twin ePropulsion Navy 6.0 Evos, 8 Longi 375w solar panels and 4 Renogy flexible 100w panels make it through? Running all that juice through Victron MPPTs sure gives them a fighting chance.
