Bringing the world of Alubat to America. Alubat’s strength is building exceptional aluminum yachts for offshore sailing. Their reputation for quality fit and finish, as well as their experience sailing and living aboard got us excited about this project. With more than two decades building and selling long-distance cruising yachts, a partnership with Alubat was a natural fit. By representing Alubat we hope to expand their presence in not only the North American market, but all around the world. #alubat #aluminumboats #exploration #bluewatersailing #sailing #aluminumsailboat

Ci eravamo abituati alla morbida e alta onda lunga oceanica. Questa notte abbiamo lasciato la marina Rubicon di Lanzarote per raggiungere la marina di Las Palmas, sull’isola di Gran Canaria. Dopo poche miglia a vela il mare inizia a innervosirsi presentandoci una corta, alta e fastidiosa onda incrociata. Non riuscivi a stare in piedi! Ogni cambio turno ci si lamentava delle condizioni con chi sopraggiungeva, che a sua volta non era riuscito a dormire come avrebbe voluto. Tutto sommato la notte è comunque passata. Siamo arrivati a Las Palmas e ci siamo messi all’ancora. I prossimi giorni saranno di preparazione della barca per la traversata. Adesso andiamo a dormire presto per recuperare le ore dormite poco e male questa notte. Buona befana a tutti! Andrea


In the last weeks, our team put six bilge stringers to add strength and stiffness to the hull. For each one, we follow the same procedure: The first step is to create a template and transfer it to the carefully selected piece of oak, which we shape into form with circular saws, planers and sanders. Then our team uses a mix of linseed oil, tar and chalk to seal the gaps between the bilge stringer and frames. In the meantime, the piece of oak is being steamed and finally bent and bolted into its place. Video edit: Karoline Hill Music: Buckeye Bonzai by Vans in Japan
