If your boat has an enclosed engine compartment, don't rush the start. Run the engine blower for AT LEAST four minutes to remove any gasoline fumes before turning the key. This is especially critical after a visit to the fuel dock. 🚩Enjoy this video?

During the race, the course included a natural obstacle — a small, rocky island. The depths were safe, and the skipper decided to take a tight line around it. But just behind the island, the wind shifted unexpectedly, and a sudden gust drove the yacht’s bow straight toward the rocks. With minimal room to maneuver, the skipper reacted quickly and managed to regain control. However, in the process of steering clear, the keel scraped against the rocks. The result: a few scratches and the loss of half the team’s security deposit. A hard lesson learned — always keep a safe distance from the rocks! #PAPARegatta #PAPARegatta2021 #TheArtOfSailing #ArtOfSailing #DangerousRocks #RocksCrash #CroatiaSailing #CroatiaYachting #SailingRace #SailingFails

One of the few ways to earn money for school and dedication in these areas is to pan for gold. On any one day, there is always at least one member from each family in the jungle searching for that precious mineral. Sometimes they pan with a shovel and metal dish and sometimes they swim using goggles. Depending on the current food situation, it is also common to trade gold directly for commodities such as rice and sugar that can't be grown naturally in these areas.
