The course is for novices and focuses on boating safety, NSW Boating regulations, low speed close quarters handling, navigation and seamanship, docking, an introduction to driving at planing speed and collision regulations. The course runs from 9am - 4pm and includes theory sessions and practical handling / skills work. We make sure you have enough practical boat skills to get your NSW General Boat License. Our vessels have the required safety gear, inflatable lifejackets and spray jackets for your use. Eastsails’ training vessels include: A custom built 8m tender with twin 115hp counter rotating outboard engines. An Arvor Weekender 23’ with an inboard 150hp engine bow thruster. A Haines Hunter 445R runabout with a 50hp 4 stroke outboard engine. Eastsail conducts this course in our classrooms or aboard the boats for practical sessions. We will show you through the 12m (40ft) Riviera 4000 Cruiser to ensure you understand what a larger cruiser looks like, the safety, engineering and interior space. Lunch break is for 30 minutes, food is not included but our marina has a cafe and toilets. A written quiz is given at the end of the day to assess your boating skills.

I wanted to be able to hide an LCD behind a mirror in my bathroom. I built a frame out of plastic, drilled a hole through my wall for the VGA and power cables and put it all together. It turned out better than I hoped. It looks really good in person.

If you are thinking this, you couldn’t be more wrong! In paid collaboration with @remoranoy We should bust some myths for comments like this one 👆🏽 (Discount code at the end) First of all, people who leave comments like these have probably never been cruising or sailing offshore for extended periods 🤷🏼‍♀️ Right? The stress of seeing your battery state of charge steadily going down is no fun experience, but we have probably all been there? But we are cruisers - not racers! For us, the potential loss in speed is unnoticeable and a very cheap price to pay for knowing that we have a source of energy that works regardless of clouds or if it’s in the middle of the night. The main reason why we like it so much is that it keeps on doing its thing; day and night, mile after mile. It just works! And except from having to clean it from sargasso now and then, it doesn’t require anything and you don’t notice it’s there. For offshore sailing I would say it makes absolute sense to have something like this to take the stress of battery charging off your mind. It’s a great complement to our solar and the alternator on the engine. And as we don’t like the bulkyness of wind generators, this is the only thing that we found suitable. What are your biggest concerns? Do you feel convinced yet that hydro really is a great way of charging your batteries for offshore sailing? Until Feb 28th you get a 5% discount on orders on the Remoran website when using the code LINNEASALE5 at checkout. The code also gives you free DHL standard shipping within the EU. What are you waiting for? Go order your own right now 😉
