Découvrez le système de réglage de grand-voile de l’OVNI 490 ! Un système à double écoute sur palan qui remplace le rail, pour un réglage 3D précis et une navigation plus sûre. Dans cette vidéo, Luc JURIEN, Directeur Général d'Alubat, vous présente le système de double écoute sur palan, monté sur point fixe, installé sur l’OVNI 490 et sur l’ensemble de la gamme OVNI pour le réglage de la grand-voile. Ce dispositif ingénieux permet de s’affranchir du rail de grand-voile tout en offrant un réglage 3D précis et efficace. ✅ Les points forts de ce système : + Un réglage fin et précis de la grand-voile + L'écoute sous le vent agit comme une retenue de bôme, améliorant la sécurité + Une fonction de hale-bas naturel tant que la bôme reste entre les deux points d’écoute + Au grand largue, le hale-bas classique reprend son rôle + Un système robuste, simple et sécurisant en navigation 👉 Dans cette vidéo, Luc vous explique en détail son fonctionnement et ses avantages, tant sur le plan de la performance que de la sécurité. N’hésitez pas à poser vos questions en commentaire et à partager vos retours d’expérience si vous naviguez déjà avec ce type de gréement. 👍 Abonnez-vous pour découvrir d’autres vidéos autour de la voile et des voiliers OVNI. - - - In this video, Luc JURIEN, CEO of Alubat, presents the double-ended mainsheet system with tackles, mounted on fixed points, fitted on the OVNI 490 and across the entire OVNI range. This clever setup eliminates the need for a mainsheet traveller while allowing for precise 3D trimming of the mainsail. ✅ Key advantages of this system: + Fine and accurate mainsail trimming + The leeward sheet serves as a preventer, enhancing safety + Acts as a natural boom vang as long as the boom remains between the two sheet points + When sailing downwind, the conventional boom vang takes over + A system that is robust, simple, and safe at sea 👉 In this video, Luc explains in detail how this system works and its advantages, both in terms of performance and safety. Feel free to leave your questions in the comments and share your feedback if you’re already sailing with this setup. 👍 Subscribe to discover more videos about sailing and OVNI yachts.

I do not like retirement homes. That may sound provocative, especially as aging societies rapidly build more of them. But after traveling across Japan’s longevity hotspots and researching healthy lifespan, I increasingly wonder whether separating generations may actually accelerate decline rather than slow it. This article is not simply a criticism. It is also a reflection on how we might design aging communities differently, places where older people remain part of the wider rhythm of life rather than parked outside it.

He is currently traveling across Japan researching longevity, healthy lifespan, and the role of community in aging well. He is the author of ten books, including the forthcoming Longevity and the Art of Community: Lessons from Japan, exploring what modern societies can learn from Japan’s remaining pockets of strong intergenerational culture and healthy aging. #HealthyAging #Longevity #Intergenerational #Community #AgingSociety
