If you’re going offshore, take NauticEd’s Safety at Sea Course to learn the critical storm, survival, and emergency skills you’ll need when things break and help is far away - https://www.nauticed.org/sailing-courses/view/safety-at-sea?utm_source=youtube&utm_medium=video&utm_campaign=CyPToQRpNVI The Safety at Sea Course is built for anyone going offshore—because offshore, you probably don’t even know what you don’t know. What do you do if your mast breaks and you’re 1,000 miles offshore? How do you outrun a storm? How do you repair a sail on a boat that’s rocking in storm conditions? We cover what to pack in a ditch bag, how to get in and out of a life raft, and how to rig a life raft so it’s accessible when you need it. We also cover flares (including how to operate them), helicopter rescue, and even how to steer without a rudder if something gets knocked off or breaks—whether it’s a whale strike, floating container, or another failure. There are dozens and dozens of topics covered in the Safety at Sea Course. If you’re going offshore, you absolutely need it. #sailingschool #offshoresailing #sailing #sailboat
🪢 Sunday Boat Tip [27/52] 🪢 There’s so many horror stories out there with boats having to clean their diesel tanks in the worst imaginable situation after the engine stoped working at an even worse moment. We figured we play it safe and try to prevent it as much as we can after finding a piece of plastic that blocked the system causing our engine to stop outside of Anholt (just after we left Sweden). You can never be totally safe from diesel bugs, specially fueling up in remote places, but you can diminish the risks. Also make sure you protect yourself and the environment by avoiding spill! Only discharge of the residues in a designated place. Hope this will be of use for your boatlife too 🫶🏼 Don’t forget to save this post and share it with a friend who needs to see this to get inspired to create their own adventure 🫶🏼
