For centuries sailors have navigated their way across the oceans by celestial navigation or nautical astronomy - using a sextant with the sun, moon, planets, and stars. For the modern sailor, it is essential when crossing oceans as back up to the modern and much relied upon electronic navigation. If you are curious about how to use a sextant or have taken the RYA Yachtmaster or Ocean Theory courses, or are even self-taught, our celestial sailing weekends are ideal offering both an introduction and a refresher. All are welcome. A big advantage is that you learn in a small group, under the supervision of an expert instructor. The weekends involve sailing along the south side of the Isle of Wight and back up through the Needles. A beautiful area to sail whilst offering ample opportunity to practice using the sextant.

Check out our latest video on the channel of how and why we bought a Contest 48CS sailyacht to sail around the world. We visit the biggest boat show and looked at new boats and later traveled around Europe to look at older boats from Hallberg Rassy, Najad, Amel, and Contest Yachts. We visit the yard where our boat was built and take a look at the incredible craftsmanship of boatbuilding today.

Giorno 138 - una pausa rigenerante Sono giorni intensi quelli che viviamo ultimamente. Molto lavoro, molte miglia, molte cose da fare, poco tempo per fare tutto. Imparare nuove skill sul lavoro Imparare meccanica, elettronica, idraulica a bordo Imparare a coltivare passioni e salute fisica e psicologica. A volte ci sembra di inseguire tutto ciò, annaspando, accompagnati da quella sgradevole sensazione di essere un passo indietro, sempre in ritardo. Parlando con amici e con qualcuno di voi nei DM abbiamo visto come sia un sentimento piuttosto condiviso. Chiaramente ognuno lo declina a modo suo, ma il filo rosso che unisce la sensazione di inadeguatezza, ritardo e affanno è piuttosto condivisa. Che fare quindi? Purtroppo su questa pagina troverete molte domande e poche risposte :) Con noi funziona imparare a lasciare andare, a mollare il freno a mano, guardarci indietro e individuare un faro nella nebbia, qualcosa che nonostante tutto sta lì, solido, stabile. Sono giorni intensi quelli che viviamo ultimamente. Siamo eternamente grati per la fortuna, le scelte che abbiamo fatto, il supporto delle nostre famiglie, la nostra tenacia. Fare questo viaggio sta riallineando dei tasselli interiori e il nostro desiderio è di condividerlo con voi, lasciar andare (per restare in tema) i cambiamenti che stanno avvenendo e orientarci sempre a un nuovo giorno. Un nuovo viaggio. Nuove miglia. Altri venti. Che soffi sempre nella direzione in cui vuoi andare. 🌬️ C.
