Depuis notre retour mi-septembre,nous avons dû redoubler d'effort pour mettre le Rebelle à l'eau dans les temps. Après avoir finalisé le circuit de gaz (pour la cuisine), le système d’assèchement, le système de pilote, l'électronique, la carène, les filières, expertisé le bateau..., c'est ce jeudi 8 novembre à 16h que le Rebelle se jette à l'eau pour la première fois depuis 8 ans. Et cela n'aurait pas été possible sans votre soutien. Initialement nous pensions faire le baptême à la mise à l'eau du Rebelle. Mais nous n'aurions pas pu profiter de votre présence, et la météo ne s'y prêtait pas. C'était, pour nous, un jour stressant et pour cause, le moteur nous a même fait son coup de théâtre en boudant, ce qui nous a obligé à rejoindre le port de Kernevel tracté par un semi-rigide. Après plusieurs heures dans le cambouis et une belle vidange, le moteur chante désormais comme un nouveau né. Nous vous donnerons rendez-vous pour un beau baptême du Rebelle à la fin du premier trimestre 2019 avec un voilier fin prêt pour le début des stages de voile.

New Leopard 50 Owner's Review now up at 'kats.co/50L'! Or head to our profile for the link. ▫️ Thanks to Sailing Dracarys for helping out. This is a good 'un with lots of useful insights on this boat or any cruising catamaran for that matter. ▫️ Here are some excerpts: ▫️ Kats: Can you tell us a bit about yourself and your boat, Dracarys? SD: Dracarys is my first sailboat, and to date, I’ve taken her 14,000nm, including multiple trips between the Gulf side of Florida and the Chesapeake Bay, Mexico, and the Exumas. I ordered her after gaining a grand total of about three weeks of sailing experience – one week of ASA classes and two charters in the BVI. The largest boat I’d owned previously was a 23-foot wakeboarding boat. ▫️ Kats:What’s she like in heavy weather / a blow / big seas? SD: The most severe weather I’ve experienced so far was a on a sail from Key West to Sarasota – about 30 hours. There was a small craft advisory issued; winds and waves were at about 50-60 degrees off the nose at around 30kts and nine feet, respectively. . To me, she felt like a bulldozer running through marshmallow fluff. I don’t have the experience to know if that’s normal, but I was very pleased! There was minimal creaking and banging. Overall, the boat gave me the impression that she didn’t even notice the conditions. ▫️ Kats: What type of anchor/weight/chain length did you go for? SD: I chose a Rocna 40kg (88lb) anchor – I think it’s the largest/heaviest anchor that fits without modifications to the anchor roller/mount area. For chain, I went with 240 feet of Maggi 10mm. Why a random number like 240 feet? Because that’s what was available. ▫️ Kats: How was the buying process with Leopard or their dealer? SD: The buying process was uncomplicated and, for the most part, smooth. There’s an options changes “lock out” date that wasn’t communicated to me up front, so that created a tiny amount of stress, but all ended well. No question that I’d buy again. ▫️ ▫️ ▫️ #multihulls #leopardcatamarans #sailing #catamarans #sailinglife #multihull #catamaran #sailinginstagram #multihullsailing #sailboat #katamarans #sailingcatamarans @leopardcatamarans #leopard50
