Hey guys, I’ve just finished editing this reel/video - which took surprisingly long to edit since I had to squeeze 21 days on the hard into a 1-minute video! 🤪🙈😅 Of course, this video only covers the surface; I’ll go into more detail when I’m uploading the long-format YouTube episode. 😅 As you can see, I’ve decided to repaint my whole boat since I didn’t like the old paint at all. It was grey, there were darker patches everywhere to cover up who knows what, and the YouTube logo that the previous owner painted on was something I just didn’t want on my boat since I personally like simple and clean lines. So now, Sirocco looks brand new and has her name neatly sitting on the bow and stern, and I added my home port of Berlin to the stern of my boat as well, which I’m very proud of (and just realized that I didn’t film the stern at all). 🙈🤪😂 The other jobs included not only the cleaning of the propeller or the new antifoul - I actually had to strip down the old antifoul completely back to the gel coat, to be able to check out a potential patch of delamination that my surveyor informed me about when he surveyed my boat. Unfortunately, the delamination was confirmed by a fiberglass and gel coat mechanic that I hired in Grenada. He actually found another big area of gel coat that was damaged on my keel - which probably happened when the previous owner hit the ground (and promised me that he had it fixed professionally but it didn’t look that way). The mechanic then fixed it and applied the brand new antifoul - so it was altogether way more expensive than the usual annual haul out (and took triple as long as planned) but it had to be done and I’m happy about the results! What do you think - doesn’t Sirocco look fabulous now? 😉🥰⛵️ Cheers guys, Kristina

Domenica di pulizie e assestamenti. Siamo ancora un po’ sballottati dagli ultimi eventi e stiamo riprendendo il giro. Pensavamo di salire sul Monte Pico ma la pioggia ha risposto no. Noi allora abbiamo rilanciato con una di quelle attività con cui passerei le giornate: fare la lista della cambusa avanzata. Ahhh che bel mestiere. Si svuotano tutti i gavoni, si scrive su un foglio esattamente cosa c’è e in quali quantità, poi si rimette via tutto (ordinatamente). Bellissimo. Sono un paio di giorni che ragioniamo se fare il murales sul pontile oppure no. Alla fine oggi ho visto un buco di un vecchio murales ormai sbiadito subito di fronte alla barca. Che occasione! Insieme a @renatomorello_originale (che si è fatto PROPRIO OGGI Instagram 🔥) abbiamo creato una dima di cartone con la quale fare lo stencil di Julia. Verrà un bel lavoro. Voi, come sempre, lo vedrete insieme a noi 🫶 A domani! Cami

Mât debout! Kaimiloa est de retour, presque prête à lever ses voiles. Je reste complètement facinée par ce wharram, conçu pour démâter sans l'assistance d'une grue. Un tire fort, de la tension sur les haubans de chaque côté pour garder le mât centrer lors de sa montée et bingo! Merci de tout coeur à @_aniballemus, @blackfish.sailing31 et @marina.solarte pour le gros team work! S'aurait été impossible sans vous ❤️.

The River's and the Glens were in close contact during the June 5th Club Racing out of Strangford Lough Yacht Club. We the breeze up ahead of a rain squall the River were flying down wind on the second lap as they cut their way through the Glen fleet on their way to the top mark The post war Glen class is one of Alfred Mylne classic designs, it is always great sight to see them gliding by you on as you race on Strangford lough. We are extremely luck to have over a dozen of them racing regularly out of Strangford Lough Yacht club (SLYC) along with the pre war Mylne Rivers with the majestic lines. The team at bottom up boats hope you are enjoying the sort bits of our close crosses from the 2024 season. Tunes from No Copy Right Sounds Song: Culture Code - Make Me Move (feat.
