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

Il "Nodo Savoia" è molto affidabile come "nodo di arresto" nell'ambito della nautica, svolgendo un ruolo cruciale nel prevenire scotte o drizze dal fuoriuscire dai loro bozzelli. La sua struttura a otto si dimostra perfetta per bloccare in modo sicuro e affidabile le linee, garantendo che rimangano saldamente al loro posto durante le varie manovre a bordo. L'esecuzione del "Nodo Savoia" come nodo di arresto è semplice ed efficace. Creando una serie di nodi sovrapposti, il "Savoia" forma una barriera che impedisce alle cime di scivolare fuori dal bozzello. Questa caratteristica lo rende particolarmente adatto per fissare in modo sicuro le scotte delle vele o i drizze alle relative pulegge, assicurando che rimangano saldamente ancorate durante la navigazione. Quando siete in mare aperto e la sicurezza delle vostre manovre è fondamentale, il "Nodo Savoia" diventa un alleato affidabile per evitare inconvenienti e garantire un controllo ottimale delle vele. Sintonizzatevi al nostro video didattico per imparare rapidamente e facilmente come eseguire questo nodo di arresto, rendendo la vostra esperienza di navigazione ancora più sicura e piacevole. Buon vento e nodi saldi a tutti! https://elearning.nauticain4settimane.it https://www.nauticain4settimane.it https://www.enjoysailing.it https://www.latuabarcascuola.it
