🪢 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 🫶🏼

Essenza - the meaning of the journey The journey of a couple - John Pott and Manuela Visani - respectively Australian and Italian, in the construction of their catamaran Essenza. Living an alternative life in North Queensland, in the town of Bowen, at the top of the Whitsundays Islands, the married couple shares their experience in the building process of Essenza while also working and slowing down to the simple things in life in the beautiful area of the Great Barrier Reef. They are following the design plan of the boat builder Peter Snell: a 41 foot catamaran. Their goal is to have an alternative lifestyle living aboard. The movies, once the boat is completed, will show also their very personal experience on board through life and the ocean.

Ce lo avete chiesto per un paio di giorni ed eccolo qui: il nostro timone ballerino in tutto il suo splendore. Lo abbiamo fatto controllare con la barca a secco? Ovviamente (sì). Si muoveva? Assolutamente (no). Ma appena siamo rientrati in acqua… via alle danze! Un movimento sulla boccola dell’asse che non avevamo mai visto prima. Per chi non sa di cosa parlo, la boccola è un disco in cui si infila il timone. È quel pezzo che, insieme ad altre componenti, tiene in sede il timone ed evita che se ne vada in giro. Il nostro ne ha due (credo quello di chiunque, ma chi lo sa🤷‍♀️), una superiore e una inferiore, che lo bloccano lì dov’è. Il dilemma era se tirare nuovamente fuori la barca oppure tenerci il problema e ripensarci in Europa. A mente fredda chiunque direbbe che non c’è neanche da pensarci, eppure noi, appena conclusa un’operazione durata un’intera settimana, speravamo di non dover mobilitare un’altra gru. Ma con la sicurezza non si scherza. Per questo siamo riusciti a parlare con Don, un signore che vive qui e che non solo ha un First uguale uguale a Julia, ma ha anche sostituito negli anni più volte le boccole al timone e sa perfettamente il modello e il numero di serie da richiedere alla ditta produttrice. Troppo bello per essere vero. Come al solito le nostre giornate sono scandite da lavori al pc, anche se non vengono filmati (chissà perché poi qualcuno si sente offeso e in dovere di comunicarlo), e tutta questa faccenda dei lavori aggiunge carne a un fuoco che già di per sé è bello scoppiettante. Domani insieme a Don ordineremo il pezzo di ricambio e non appena sarà arrivato procederemo con la sostituzione. Dovranno incasellarsi un paio di coincidenze affinché tutto questo sia concluso entro il 2 giugno (giorno in cui arriverà l’equipaggio). A proposito, saremo in 7. Qualche ipotesi? 😄 A domani Camilla
