As we expected during our Winter stay in Turkey, there would be storms. We are currently sailing our way South to see as much of the coast as possible. Stopping at a place called Kakova Road we have found a bay to anchor tight for the next 3 days due to a nasty frontal system making its way around the area. Rain, Thunder storms and winds to 35knts (65km/h) . Life on board can be quite uncomfortable in these conditions with rolling swells rocking the yacht side to side causing endless bangs and crashes of lines and equipment being thrown about not to mention the howling sounds the rigging makes in even moderate winds. WE make do with games, music and family time until the weather clears for sailing again.Be sure to check back here for location and track updates https://freedomfamily.nz/locations/where-are-we-now/ --------------------------------------------------- Please consider becoming a Member Supporter and hit the JOIN button.. or just LIKE & SUBSCRIBE!

If you don't have a launching trolley then the simplest way to get your boat up and down the beach is with an inflatable roller like this. Of course, unlike a trolley, you can take it with you, just deflate it and roll it up. Obviously you really need two or three (but I just have one - for now!). Don't get one that is too short or the boat might roll off the end of it. Of course a wide, flat bottomed boat works best. I got mine from www.sailormall.net, search for pneumatic roller, not inflatable roller! Duckworks sell them in the USA www.duckworksbbs.com/gear.htm The boat I am pulling up the beach is my Strike 15 trimaran, having just come in from a chilly February sail in Port Townsend, Wa, USA See more at my website www.sailingcatamarans.com
