When it rains so heavy you can barely see your bow ⛈️ that’s not the moment you want your AIS alarm beeping 🚨 While AIS is rather precise, we do not want to rely on it 100% when passing a boat only 0.2nm away. After 15 minutes of searching in the rain, you can imagine our relieve when we saw the container ship popping up between the clouds ☁️ and their heading was already passing behind us 🗺️ day 17 sailing from Chile to Panama 🗺️ sailed: 2.045 nm 🌎 to destination: 155 nm 🌬️ avg. on day: 14 kts ⛵️ avg. on day: 5,2 kts ☸️ steering wire still holding 💪 Stay Salty, Greta and Michael on Zambezi ps: in our link in bio you can find the Ocean Crossing Bundle which includes everything you need to know for offshore sailing ⛵️ #offshoresailing #sailing #catamaran #sailinglife #sailingadventure #oceansailing

🥨 How to tie the Bowline. A Super Easy method. You could call this "Spock's Bowline". ..... If you sometimes struggle with the bowline, which way to coil or twist the loop in, which side of the standing part to loop the working end round, blah, blah, blah, then try this method. It uses your hand as a "Bowline Guide"..it's logical Cap'n. .... Just make a 🖖"Vulcan Salute" with your hand and loop your working end once around your 3rd and 4th fingers. Clamp the loop and the standing part with these fingers. ... It works with either hand, we're showing the right hander's version. If you're a leftie, just do the mirror opposite. ... Then pass your line around the back of your hand and make the bowline as usual (up the hole, round the standing part, back down the hole). Just follow the shape of your hand as you go round . Works for me, anyway. .... Live Long and Prosper. ...
