We had an afternoon off last week so we scouted some secret beaches and did a Go-Pro time-lapse of sailing Mon Tiki on the trip back to Montauk Harbor Nothing happens, Mon Tiki just sails along, which is kind of the point! ;-)

Join us for an in-depth exploration of Elan Yachts’ advanced composite technology, celebrating 75 years of innovation in yacht construction. In this video, we’re taking you on a tour through rich history of boat building and get to know you with sophisticated techniques behind our composite work, from the pioneering days of glass-reinforced plastic (GRP) in the 1960s to the advanced application of Vacuum Assisted Infusion Lamination (VAIL) technology in 2003. You will see how we create hulls, decks and components of Elan Yachts and learn about the intricate VAIL process, that ensures even resin distribution, optimal mechanical properties and significant environmental benefits. We also take you through the steps of creating a fore laminate, which is crucial for preventing osmosis and achieving flawless surface of the yacht. Explore the science and strategy behind selecting and layering various types of fibers and cell foams to construct yachts that are not only aesthetically pleasing, but exceptionally strong and durable.

I am living my dream, on a sailboat on the Pacific Coast. One nigh on the dock of the marina with a powerful light and a small net, exploring the flora and fauna of the Pacific. Learning to identify species and their food value. This is a Kelp Crab. Supposedly good eating, albeit quite small. This one went back to it’s home.
