You can sign up for Jeff’s Offshore Cruising course by going to https://www.boatersuniversity.com/ This Offshore Cruising Tip is called, “Through hulls”. Through hulls are vital operational features that every boat owner needs to understand. Many owners take through hulls for granted and don’t give them much thought. We’d like to encourage you to remember their vital roles. We recommend that you identify the location and purpose of each through hull on your boat. As part of your check lists and routines we suggest you test regularly and make sure each through hull is working – it can be freely opened and closed. When they aren’t used, they can “freeze” or become stubborn. Through hulls that supply raw water to strainers seem to get more service since they are closed off to clean out the strainers, then re-opened. Other through hulls, like deck drains, are rarely adjusted since they are almost always left open. “Exercising” through hulls keeps them active and ready. One tip we recommend is using a PVC pipe as a “long reach” to check those through hulls tucked away outboard and also as a “persuader” that can give you the extra leverage you need to nudge a through hull that has become stiff due to lack of use. Never force a through hull, you could break it and open the flow of water. It is a good practice to have soft wooden bungs and a soft blow hammer nearby to plug a broken through hull and stop the inflow of raw water. If your boat is hauled out you can be a bit more aggressive, but if they are really stuck, they may need to be disassembled or replaced. To learn more about preparing for safe cruising, we invite you to sign up for “Offshore Cruising – Preparing Craft and Crew” and learn why it has become one of the most popular classes offered.

Ce lo chiede praticamente chiunque incroci i nostri video, sempre con gradita gentilezza. Noi rispondiamo ogni volta con piacere perché siamo felici di questo interesse. Un lavoro in 100% remote working non solo è possibile nel 2024 ma è anche consigliabile a chi sta un po’ stretto l’ufficio. Abbiamo lavorato da casa per tre anni, in una piccola stanza che usavamo da studio nella nostra piccola e bella casetta a Torino. Come diceva Andre ieri, la vicinanza a noi non pesa, anzi è parte della quotidianità ed è una gradevole compagna, salvo davvero qualche episodio che possiamo contare sulla punta delle dita. Fortunatamente i nostri lavori sono compatibili (nessuno dei due suona e deve esercitarsi 7 ore al giorno) quindi l’unico scoglio che abbiamo dovuto oltrepassare è stato organizzare le call e i momenti “rumorosi”. Insomma niente che un paio di cuffie (e qualche rumore bianco) non possano risolvere. Quest’anno tutto è cambiato. La nostre routine, le nostre abitudini, ogni cosa ha iniziato a orbitare intorno alla barca. Un’esperienza incredibile e si, anche faticosa, perché il video è molto bello ma noi non vogliamo alimentare la FOMO di una vita perfetta perciò ecco una frase poco acchiappalike ma molto autentica: la vita in barca è stancante. La vita con un lavoro è stancante. La vita in barca mantenendo un lavoro è stremante. Non oso immaginare chi a questa equazione aggiunge dei figli. Quindi testa sulle spalle, perché tutto è fattibile con la giusta consapevolezza. Naturalmente la fatica viene addolcita da tutto ciò che viviamo qui. Con questo video vogliamo mostrare tutto il bello che portiamo nel cuore e nei ricordi, che speriamo rimanga indelebile allo scorrere degli anni. Servono anche a questo dopotutto i video del giorno. Ci aiuteranno, quando saremo davanti a un caminetto a scaldarci i piedi, mentre la neve cadrà sui prati, a ricordare l’avventura straordinaria che stiamo vivendo quaggiù, nell’angolo del mondo che l’inverno non raggiunge. Ci leggiamo domani 🙋‍♀️ Camilla
