Quick rule of thumb: Bow & Stern lines: ~ 40-60% of your boat’s LOA (length overall) Spring lines: ~1× LOA (keep one extra-long spring ~1.5× LOA for flexibility) That’s it—fast guidance for sizing bow, stern, and spring lines so you’re ready for slips, T-heads, and changing tides. #docking #sailing #boat #boating

Quante novità! - abbiamo sostituito il Genoa nuovo con quello vecchio - abbiamo visto due tartarughe - siamo partiti per santa Lucia - abbiamo incontrato un mare agitato ma giornata splendida Dulcis in fundo… Chris e Maria, due amici canadesi conosciuti in Sicilia 100 anni fa, ci hanno aspettati in baia per una reunion. Che belli questi incontri! Si racconta del viaggio, cosa si è rotto, cosa si è visto, i programmi futuri… È sempre bello salutarsi, specialmente quando non sai se ci sarà un’altra occasione per vedersi 🥹🫶 Il viaggio proseguirà ancora un po’ a sud, poi risaliremo. A chi mancano i messaggi in bottiglia della traversata? ✋ Scrivetelo nei commenti 🫶 Ci vediamo lì AC

☠️ See if we died! https://youtu.be/ERZZe8F01MY Boats use knots instead of MPH. I mean, usually. While sailing the bahamas in a 47' Vagabond sailboat, we hit speeds up to 8 MPH. Do you know how fast that is in knots??!! I'll tell you! And give you the fascinating history of how sailors calculated speed back when I was a kid in the 1600's. #sailing #boats #shorts Why They're Called Knots https://youtube.com/shorts/CRHR-TSY41c photo credit: By Lokilech - Own work, CC BY-SA 3.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=1810012
