Check out episode #3 of “Tech Shorts” with our Chief Innovation Officer, Dr. Stephan Kress. This time we focus on the solar panels as our main source of energy. Rest assured, our development team continuously also investigates additional power sources for our yachts. Currently though, we believe any other form of energy would be a compromise. #solaryachting #yacht #yachtdesign #yachts #solar #solarenergy #solarpowered #boat #boatinglifestyle #boatinglife #boatlife #boats #sail #sailors #sailor #future #katamaran #catamaran #oceantravel #technology #electric #luxuryyacht #innovation #tech #silentyachts #boating #techtuesday www.silent-yachts.com Follow us here: https://www.facebook.com/silentyachts https://www.instagram.com/silent_yachts_headquarters https://www.twitter.com/Silent_Yachts #shorts #short #shortvideo #shortsvideo
Amost 11 years since launching and it wass time for a good touch up of Grace's exterior. After a lot of sanding and a bit of epoxy filler, 4x coats of International GOLDSPAR varnish and 2x primer/undercoat plus 2-3x top coats of Altex ISOTAL paint (depending on the area). The trailer (now 7 years old) also had some tickle ups - cosmetic only. Not a 'showroom' finish and she still sports some deep scars from her campaigns, but I'm happy enough. Now to get back on/in the water for summer proper!
Anchoring is easy once you know how to do it. You find a spot that looks like good holding, drop the anchor while slowly backing the boat up (so the chain leads out rather than falling into a big clump). Once all the chain is out (5x the depth), you pull back using the engine to set the anchor into the seabed. As long as the anchor is holding while in reverse, you’re good to go! Once the engine is off, jump in water and check out the anchor. Checkout SailingBritican on YouTube for the full video. #sailing #sailingexperience #sailingexperiences
