Trip to the Atlantic Highlands in New Jersey in serious fog. In order to get there, I had to cross New York Harbor. With less than 100m of visibility, not a fun undertaking. There were approximately 20 large vessels all moving at different speeds and heading into the harbor. I never saw one. Without radar it would have been extremely dangerous.

Vielleicht geht’s dir wie mir damals: Segelschein bestanden – und im Kopf schon die erste Charteryacht auf dem offenen Meer. Ich dachte wirklich, ich kann „jetzt sofort los“. Heute bin ich froh, dass ich es anders gemacht habe: erst Mitsegeln, Routine aufbauen, Verantwortung Schritt für Schritt steigern. Inzwischen bin ich seit Jahren Skipper, chartere eigene Yachten – und habe mich mit dem Thema „Vom Scheininhaber zum Skipper“ sehr intensiv beschäftigt. Und nein: Ich will dir das nicht schlechtreden. Im Gegenteil. Ich möchte dir typische Problematiken zeigen, die viele unterschätzen – und vor allem Wege, wie du wirklich sicher vom Schein zum Skipper wirst. 👉 Alle Infos zu meinem Stufen-Konzept & Trainings findest du hier (Termine, Preise & Details): https://sporedo.de/dl/vom-schein-zum-skipper-praxisnahe-skipper-ausbildung-mit-sporedo/ 📅 Auf der Seite kannst du außerdem direkt einen persönlichen Gesprächstermin mit mir vereinbaren, wenn du kurz klären willst, was für dich der beste nächste Schritt ist. Schreib mir gern in die Kommentare: Wo stehst du gerade – Schein frisch, erste Charter geplant oder schon erste Skipper-Erfahrung? #segeln #skipper #vomScheinZumSkipper #yachtcharter #segelpraxis #sicherheit #sporedo

The first test of our Dyneema loops that replace metal chainplates as part of our full Dyneema Standing rigging project within the full refit of our 1977 Rival 38. We are refitting our Rival 38 for a Sustainable Sailing retirement in a few years. Two years ago, when we bought Vida she was in a very tired and damp condition with all original equipment and fittings. We have removed all the gas, diesel and paraffin equipment, and are installing all electric (motor, cooking etc). Now that the inside is dry (thanks to new windows, new hatches and leak chasing) we are fitting her out for live-aboard world cruising. That includes no fossil fuels, updating the rig and deck plus much more. Lots more detail on our blog at https://sustainablesailing.net/ We are on Ko-Fi! where you can buy us a coffee :-) https://ko-fi.com/sustainablesailing #DyneemaRigging #DyneemaStandingRigging #SyntheticRigging #Shorts

We are selling Taiga, our home for the last 13 years. Taiga is a high performance Catana catamaran designed by Lock Crowther and built in the Catana yard in France in 1997 in very good condition. This is the ocean-going model with daggerboards for sprightly upwind performance and the only Catana with a custom built, protected inside steering station. She comes complete with all stores, full complement of tools, spares, and misc dive gear. Taiga is a very comfortable liveaboard with a roomy, well thought-out galley-up design handy to the big cockpit table. The master cabin and both guest cabins have queen beds. The two heads are electric and each have a dedicated shower. Her solar array provides plenty of power. Taiga has been carefully maintained and is ready to continue cruising by just moving aboard. We are currently in Martinique, planning to head to Sint Maarten next week. We hate to give up this lovely catamaran and fabulous lifestyle, but it’s time for us to change gears. https://www.catamaransite.com/catamarans-for-sale/catana-44
