After a few season of coming to grips with our Mumm 36 racing yacht and optimising her sail plan we were finally in a positions to win races. A stripped out racing yacht like a Mumm 36 needs to be sailed on the limit at all times to keep you in races against boats with more forgiving IRC ratings. For the team at Bottom Up Boats it more often than not it came down to the crew work if you wanted to separate yourself from the chasing pack. One of the most magical memories from our time on the Mumm 36 was this peel from the Code Zero to the A-Sail on a short course race in the season ending frosties regatta at Strangford Lough Yacht club. This slick transition with the crew working in complete harmony allowed the team on GTR to maintain top speed during the second to last mark round which help give them the race win by less than 10 seconds. If you would like to learn more about how the crew on GTR perfected this type of sail change take a look at the full video to hear more about what was going on board to make for the perfect mark round and peel. https://youtu.be/Qxr-gVgsjW0?si=-YvRmoOkJcoeIkya
What do you think? 🐟 or 🦈? We don’t know. The fishing line unfortunately (or luckily? if it was a shark) broke before we got the fish on board 🥲 always tragic to loose a lure, because it means we harmed a fish “for no reason”. Hopefully the next days will be more successful 🎣 the Humboldt stream we sail along should be full of fish 🤞 🗺️ sailed: 220 nm 🌎 to destination: 1.980 nm 🌬️ avg. on day: 6 kts ⛵️ avg. on day: 4,1 kts Stay Salty, Greta and Michael on Zambezi ps: in our link in bio you can find the Ocean Crossing Bundle which includes everything you need to know for offshore sailing ⛵️ #offshoresailing #sailing #catamaran #sailinglife #sailingadventure #oceansailing

From Ancient Routes to Modern Marvels: Discover the Rio-Antirrio Strait The Patras Bridge (Rio-Antirrio Bridge) is located at the strait of Rio-Antirrio, at the transition between the Gulf of Patras and the Gulf of Corinth. The first person to officially cross the Rio-Antirrio Bridge was a torchbearer as part of the Olympic Torch Relay for the 2004 Athens Olympic Games. The Rio-Antirrio Bridge is one of the world’s longest multi-span cable-stayed bridges. • It connects the Peloponnese peninsula (Rio) with mainland Greece (Antirrio), near the city of Patras. • Officially opened in August 2004, just before the Athens Olympic Games. • Named after Charilaos Trikoupis, a 19th-century Greek Prime Minister who first proposed the idea of such a bridge.
