Paul Exner who leads who runs the Modern Geographic Sailing Academy takes students step-by-step to go anywhere by sail. He teaches sailors the skills they need to sail in the ocean with confidence. This video shows him on a heavy air passage across Hawaii’s Alenuihaha Channel between Maui and Big Island in heavy weather aboard his Cape George Cutter 31, SOLSTICE. He has sailed hard for 40 years before he'd been in conditions that required a storm trysail and storm headsails. His students on this expedition had signed up for sailing in storm sailing conditions. Paul writes, “Bluewater sailing is a ‘practice’ — the same as any professional discipline like law, medicine, engineering, or business … you must practice your ‘art’ under the circumstances you’d expect in the real-world. Before a sailor can grow, they must surround themselves with bluewater conditions to establish a base-line from which mastery grows. “During the MOD GEO expedition you’ll grow as a sailor through hands-on practice on routes that you plan, influenced by weather forecasts you interpret — while you manage an ocean-ready sailing vessel to encounter a complete range of offshore and coastal conditions thrown at you in real time. You’ll learn proven seamanship methods and actionable-info to accelerate the pace and confidence by which you reach your sailing dream.” Paul’s not kidding you with these firm statements — many sailors have learned from Paul Exner how to complete their own Earth circumnavigation, sail multi-year voyages aboard their own boat — OR, become a trusted professional in the marine industry. Paul is a very experienced sailor and he knows how to teach seamanship. He also knows that an ocean-going boat needs dependable equipment. That is why his boat is powered by UK Sailmakers’ bluewater standard dacron cruising sails. In fact, he is just replacing his 18-year-old genoa. That’s a lot of years, especially when most of those miles were done on the ocean.
We’re taking a "mental health day" away from the 1973 VW Bus restoration! 🚌💨 While we’re saving $12,000 by doing our own repairs, we decided to spend some of that "saved" energy on one of Arizona’s most iconic hikes: Picacho Peak. If you’ve never been, it’s a steep one! Between the Hunter Trail and those famous steel cables, it was quite the workout for this 60-year-old and her boyfriend. It’s important to step away from the project sometimes so you can come back with fresh eyes and a steady hand. Beautiful views, sore legs, and a great day in the Arizona sun. Tomorrow, we get back to the bus! SUBSCRIBE to follow our journey of DIY repairs, desert adventures, and proof that life only gets better at 60! 🛠️🥾 #PicachoPeak #ArizonaHiking #VWBusLife #ActiveSeniors #HikingArizona #DesertLife #DIYRestoration #LadiesWhoHike #HunterTrail
This time, we’ll be talking about the Lagoon 51 and its fantastic features without stepping into the interior spaces, like the salon and cabins. 🤌 First up is the easy-access transom, transforming the whole area into a real terrace on the sea. When people are on board, one of their favorite spots is as close to the ocean as possible, making this hydraulic platform the perfect place to relax by the water. 🧘♀️ Moving into the cockpit, we only have two steps, allowing for a seamless flow through this social and functional space. The cockpit is always the focal point of all activities on board, and beneath each seat, there’s plenty of storage space. Finally, we head up to the flybridge — the most exciting new feature on this boat! Lagoon designers focused on making this area even more social, adding a new dimension with additional spaces. If you're interested in learning more about this model, visit our website for additional details or reach out to us via email at office@masteryachting.com. #Lagoon #Lagoon51 #MasterYachting #YachtingWorld #MasterYachtingGroup #Catamaran
In this video I show how to tie the rolling hitch, which is also called stopper hitch. We use the rolling hitch for example if we want to attach a line to another line that is tensed. For example when several boats are supposed to be towed with one single line. It is possible to shift the knot on the line in one direction and to the other direction it stops.
