Fellow GFC Camper owners: I found some great, easy-to-install latch covers over on Etsy. I also squirted a bit of silicone grease down into the spring mechanism of my latches. So far, there have been no problems opening the latches in icy, cold, below-zero Canadian weather.

► Full test in Multihulls World Secial Issue Forever Green N°22: https://www.multihulls-world.com/review/catamaran/greencat-52-energy-transition-a-la-carte ► Based in La Rochelle on France’s Atlantic coast, the Chantiers de l'Arsenal shipyard is best known for its “Day 1” range of day-charter catamarans, of which some 15 units in sizes from 60 to 90 feet have already been sold worldwide. The manufacturer is also taking an interest in electrically powered workboat catamarans but has also just launched its first recreational multihull. This catamaran, christened the Greencat 52, was delivered to a private owner planning on setting off on a round-the-world cruise. An eco-responsible approach accompanies the entire project - no molds thanks to One Shape® technology, use of a sandwich with recycled PET foam and, of course, installation of two electric motors (Transfluid). The approach is reminiscent of Windelo's, but the deck plan reveals a much more covering coachroof to limit the greenhouse effect in the nacelle, and above all, twin helm stations aft - rather than one maneuvering/helm station forward. ► TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Builder: Chantiers de l'Arsenal Architect: Philippe Renaudeau Length: 51’8” (15.75 m) Beam: 24’1” (7.34 m) Draft: 4’7” (1.4 m) Light displacement: 30,900 lbs (14 t) Laden displacement: 38,800 lbs (17.6 t) Sail area: 1,570 sq ft (146 m²) Drivetrain: 2 x 25 kW electric motors) Water capacity: 105 US gal (400 l) CE Certification: A10 ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 500 multihulls tests!

You can sign up for Jeff’s Offshore Cruising course by going to https://www.boatersuniversity.com/ This Offshore Cruising Tip is called, “Through hulls”. Through hulls are vital operational features that every boat owner needs to understand. Many owners take through hulls for granted and don’t give them much thought. We’d like to encourage you to remember their vital roles. We recommend that you identify the location and purpose of each through hull on your boat. As part of your check lists and routines we suggest you test regularly and make sure each through hull is working – it can be freely opened and closed. When they aren’t used, they can “freeze” or become stubborn. Through hulls that supply raw water to strainers seem to get more service since they are closed off to clean out the strainers, then re-opened. Other through hulls, like deck drains, are rarely adjusted since they are almost always left open. “Exercising” through hulls keeps them active and ready. One tip we recommend is using a PVC pipe as a “long reach” to check those through hulls tucked away outboard and also as a “persuader” that can give you the extra leverage you need to nudge a through hull that has become stiff due to lack of use. Never force a through hull, you could break it and open the flow of water. It is a good practice to have soft wooden bungs and a soft blow hammer nearby to plug a broken through hull and stop the inflow of raw water. If your boat is hauled out you can be a bit more aggressive, but if they are really stuck, they may need to be disassembled or replaced. To learn more about preparing for safe cruising, we invite you to sign up for “Offshore Cruising – Preparing Craft and Crew” and learn why it has become one of the most popular classes offered. To log in and sign up for the course, please go to this link, https://www.boatersuniversity.com/courses/offshore-cruising/?omhide=true JMYS clients can insert the discount code JEFFSAVES at check out to receive a 20% discount.
