- Dunkerque to Cherbourg. It took us 36 hours to move our home 185 nautical miles — almost entirely under sail, with the engine running for just 3 hours 🎉 Living on a sailboat means home is wherever we drop anchor… or dock in a new marina. The view changes, the neighbors drift by, but the creaking of the rig, the warmth of our tiny galley, and the sound of Anker snoring on the floor – that’s our constant ✨ And that’s something Signe, especially, has been longing for — after moving almost every year since childhood, changing addresses like seasons. Together we’ve moved five times in the last six years. So having a home that stays with us, wherever we go, brings a sense of calm we’ve both been craving. We’re not just traveling. We’re taking our home with us, one nautical mile at a time. ⛵💙
Raymarine has some interesting news for this year, as boats.com senior editor Lenny Rudow discovered at the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show, when the LightHouse software update was announced along with the CP100. The LightHouse update includes a lot of advancements, including new color palettes, menus, and pinch-to-zoom functionality. Meanwhile, the CP100 takes the same CHIRP-ish technology use in the Raymarine Dragonfly, and combines it with a black-box sounder. Nifty stuff - go ahead and get a glimpse for yourself, first-hand. http://features.boats.com/boat-content/2013/11/raymarine-lighthouse-and-cp100-update-first-look-video/ For more electronics videos, visit www.boats.com.
