Day 2 on our Atlantic Crossing. We had very relaxed conditions and were able to unpack our spinnaker again. It's really impressive, especially when there are also some dolphins around 🌊 And we were also rewarded with a bonito, which we used straight away as sushi. Delicious 😋 And it was even so relaxed that we were able to play games. Let's see what the second night brings. ⛵ If you would like to see our exact location you can check our Patreon Page: https://www.patreon.com/patandfrankie! #sailing #atlanticcrossing #caribbean #boatlife #spinnaker #atlantic
Segeln verbindet nicht automatisch – aber aus Fremden können Freunde werden. An Bord lernst du Menschen schnell und ehrlich kennen: Teamgeist, Verantwortung und Vertrauen können dabei ganz natürlich entstehen – manchmal nur für den Moment, manchmal für lange Zeit. Und genau deshalb gilt auch an Land: Netzwerken ohne Vertrauen funktioniert selten. „Kontakt bestätigt → Pitch“ schafft meist keine echte Verbindung. 👉 Skippertraining „light“ in Kroatien: https://sporedo.de/dl/skippertraining-light/ #segeln #skipper #segelyacht #yachtcharter #segeltraining #skippertraining #hafenmanöver #kroatien #segelurlaub #crew #teamgeist #vertrauen #praxistraining #vomScheinZumSkipper #sporedo
All yachts hide their secrets. On the outside we see the hull reflecting the water, gleaming brightwork, clean deck lines and seas of sail. Underneath is a complex story, based on advanced design and structural engineering, and in the centre of every X-Yacht built since 1981, a heart of steel. Walking around the X-Yachts facilities in Haderslev, an ancient and pretty town in southern Denmark, you'll walk into one of the service yard buildings to find a yacht hanging there. No cradle, no supports, no slings, with the keel floating a couple of centimetres off the ground. Tons of yacht seemingly defying gravity. The answer comes back to the steel frame, and the single-point lift which is integral to it. The yacht is perfectly balanced, so hoisting yachts out of the water only requires this attachment point to suspend an X-Yacht from the building's ceiling crane. From the point of view of service this makes things much cleaner. No working around the cradle pads, no having to move the slings to remove antifoul. The hull is completely clear to work on, and keeping the fleet of X-Yachts in top condition is a major part of what the team in Haderslev do. Owners are rightly proud of their X-Yacht and want them looking and performing at their best, year after year.
