Dear Salty Sailor, Fresh water is one of the most precious resources we carry on our sailboat, and access to it can be critical in remote locations. We decided to install a water maker to ‘produce’ our own fresh water, and we couldn’t be happier. Of course, it gave us some challenges (what part of the boat doesn’t, right? xD), but overall, it’s been a huge win. You can check out the entire installation process on our channel. Stay Salty, Greta and Michael on Fortuna
This was the result of taking rum and an ipod ashore to the 5 inhabitants of a small, isolated atoll in the middle of the South Pacific. Dolly Parton proved to be their favourite with Bob Marley and Johnny Cash close behind. My bottle is already empty and the next is being delivered by the Swedish couple. Jolene has never sounded so good!

A night to remember at PAPA Regatta — the legendary White Party! This tradition, held in classic all-white yachting attire, is all about welcoming newcomers into the sailing crew. It’s part celebration, part initiation, with lighthearted contests, plenty of laughter, and good vibes all around. And as always, it all ends with dancing into the night. Just one more reason evenings at PAPA Regatta are as memorable as the races themselves. #PAPARegatta #PAPARegatta2021 #TheArtOfSailing #AllWhitePartyNight #FlashMob
The Dazcat 1295 xl provides great opportunities for some father and son time but it is achieving so much more than just this. Mangata 5's story is a wonderful one, but it's a read not a video so if you feel inclined you can read it here and discover that some Dazcats have more important jobs than racing: https://www.multihullcentre.com/2023/08/22/sailing-beyond-boundaries-on-dazcat-1295-xl-mangata-5/
This video shows how to use 'Dutchman's Log', an iOS and Android app to measure your boat speed through the water. It can also be used to calibrate your boat's log instrument. https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/dutchmans-log/id474782184?mt=8 https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=uk.co.navsoft.dutchlog A boat's speed may be estimated by timing how long it takes to pass a floating object. Set boat length and desired units in 'Settings'. Two persons are needed: one stands on the bow, and the other aft. The person on the bow throws an object that will float (eg crumpled piece of paper) into the water, ahead and to one side of the bow. As it passes the bow at right angles, they shout 'Now', and the person on the stern starts the digital timer. When the object passes the stern at right angles, the timer is stopped. The App now calculates and displays the boat speed.
