🪢 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 🫶🏼

Benetti has delivered the M/Y “Elaldrea+”, 49-meter displacement yacht. She features many singularities particularly worthy of notice: besides the steel hull, Elaldrea+ has an aluminium superstructure painted in pearl white with silver accents. Depending on the angle of the light, a special iridescent effect enhances the details of the shapes or hides them completely from view. Exterior styling by Horacio Bozzo and interiors by the Benetti Style Department breathe life into an elegant yacht designed for family and social life. Many of the spaces on board are designed to be used during navigation, not least the large beach club with air conditioning, sofa, TV, bar and sauna. With one window in the ceiling and one in the rear door, which opens out onto a swim platform of almost 25 sqm, the setting is flooded with natural light even when cruising.
