⚓️ Just gave our new @MantusMarine M3 Chain Hook its first test and Tynan’s reaction says it all! Compared to our old chain hook, the M3 clips onto the chain hook quickly and easily with no fumbling around. It feels rock-solid, secure, and is super easy to handle. Definitely one of those upgrades that makes liveaboard life easier. Huge thanks to Mantus Marine for gifting it to us, no strings attached. #MantusMarine #BoatLife #LiveaboardLife #SailingGear #MantusM3 #CatamaranLife #AnchorGear Prefer to support the channel as a 1-off?

is an incredible opportunity to meet unexpected and diverse leaders from across the yachting industry. I had the privilege of speaking with Giuseppe Capobianco from Model Maker Group, who is showcasing his work here at FLIBS and globally. With 25 years in the business, he and his talented team are behind most of the yacht and boat models you see today.
The Crazy Waters Bridge in Chalkis sits at the narrowest point between Evia and the mainland, where the strait is only about 38 meters wide. Because so much water is forced through this tiny opening, extremely strong currents are created — the reason sailors call it the “Crazy Waters.” The bridge is in the middle of the city and opens only once a day to avoid disrupting the constant road traffic. Boats may only pass at slack tide, the brief moment every six hours when the water is calmest. That’s why sailors often go through at strange times like 1:30 or 3:00 a.m. While waiting, boats are not allowed to tie up along the quay because the turbulence is so strong that it would be dangerous. Instead, everyone must anchor in the bay and wait for instructions from Port Control. We anchored there with about fifteen other boats and waited until slack tide at night. At midnight, Port Control suddenly called all boats in order — we were number three. Passing the bridge in the dark was surreal: strong currents below, quiet city lights above. The bridge didn’t lift; it actually slid sideways into the quay walls, disappearing completely. Once through, we moored safely just 100 meters further in the city. Experiencing this natural phenomenon at night, in such a narrow and powerful channel, was something I will not quickly forget!
@iFLY-foiling Foil sailing is quiet and extremely fast - you just hear the “sound of speed”. Racing above the water surface at high speed over the ocean. What a blast! The iFLY is very reactive due to the high speed sailing - so you just focus on yourself, the wind and the experience of high performance sailing above the surface of the water…. Flysafe®️ dynamic foil control @ifly15 allows you to focus only on sailing. #iFLYsail #WeLoveSpeed #JoinTheAdventure … https://iflysail.com/ … #iFLY15 #sailing #soundofSpeed #foiling #foiling-catamaran #loyaltothefoil #iFLYsail #sailracing #foil #ocean #race #oceanrace
