100 meters to the finish, we’re holding third place — then suddenly, the sound of the rudder chain snapping, and the yacht luffs sharply into the wind. The skipper stayed calm and acted fast, inserting the emergency tiller into the rudder stock to regain direct control of the rudder blade, bypassing the wheel. Thanks to the quick response, the yacht lost only a few positions and still crossed the finish line successfully. Back in the marina, technicians from the charter company were called in. They repaired the system and installed a new steering chain. A valuable lesson: never ignore play or looseness in the wheel — it’s often the first sign of trouble. #PAPARegatta #PAPARegatta2012 #TheArtOfSailing #ArtOfSailing #RudderFailure #CroatiaYachting #CroatiaSailing
What do you actually do 100 miles from land with zero connection? 🌊⚓ After 4 months completely off-grid in PNG, we started our crossing. Ocean passages are a forced meditation—no internet, no distractions, just the horizon. But the silence didn't last. In the main episode, the peace is shattered. As we finally cross into the Solomon Islands, our sail RIPS, leaving us vulnerable in the open sea. This is the raw, unpolished reality of boat life.

Britican is now up for sale, and I'm doing Experiences on Manava, a 50' Lagoon. My first Experience was brilliant!
