What a treat for our passengers on board Poseidon this afternoon, who had a juvenile (3-4 years) Humpback whale come and join the fun at Helms Deep! The crew kept the passengers who were already in the water in a tight group as the extremely curious Humpback made around 20 passes in a 20 minute period. What an absolute treat for our passengers! We bet they've had a 'whaley' amazing day! 🐋🐋🐋 Thanks to Dan Hill for the 📹 #PoseidonCruises #Australia #ThisisQueensland #ExploreTNQ #CitizensGBR #GreatBarrierReef

Presenting my haphazard boat cookery creation: Gochujang Ginger Garlic Chicken Pineapple Soup! That’s a mouthful so I dub thee ‘3-G Chicken Pineapple Soup’!! Mind you I am no professional chef. Most of the time I just play around with my food stuffs! I rarely measure anything when I cook so the ingredient quantities listed are approximations. However, I do watch the clock like a hawk so mind your timers! Take special care not to overcook stuff. The flavor of garlic changes dramatically over the course of various cooking times. So anywayzzz, here’s the best recipe I can come up with: Pour enough canola oil in your pot to evenly coat the bottom. Bring up to temperature before adding in the the ginger, garlic, salt, and pepper. A useful not: A wee bit of garlic thrown into the pot to check the heat should sizzle when it hits the oil but the oil shouldn’t be so hot that it smokes. I love garlic and ginger so I am definitely heavy handed with them in this soup! Sauté on high heat until the garlic goes aromatic, add in gochujang and briefly continue to sauté. Pour in two thirds of chicken stock, bring to a boil. Add in the pineapple, pineapple juice, and lemon juice and reduce to a simmer for five minutes. Mind the clock at this point. Cooking too long will change the garlic to an earthy flavor and the pineapple/lemon juices will begin to lose their sweet tanginess. (My apologies for not including this step in the video, I forgot to hit record! ) Pour contents of pot into a bowl and set aside. Add remaining chicken stock and water into the same pot you have been using, bring the liquid to a gentle simmer and steep the kombu in the liquid for 15 minutes. Basically you are making a sea weed tea so don’t let it boil. Remove the kombu and add in the pre cooked chicken. Simmer till chicken is warmed through. Pour the two stocks together, add a splash of white vinegar and you are ready to eat! I didn’t use any garnishes because I simply didn’t have any on the boat at the time! But, I can tell you I would have loved to garnish it with some fresh basil or green onions if I had them on hand! Even without the garnish, this soup was DELICIOUS! Ingredients listed below: 1 pound of previously cooked chicken ( I prefer chicken thighs, more savory! ) chopped 3/4 cup thinly sliced pineapple 2 oz fresh from the pineapple Juice of one lemon 3 tablespoons gochujang 2 fingers of julienned Ginger- fresh 1/2 a bulb worth of rough chopped garlic fresh 1 sheet kombu (dried kelp) Canola oil- enough to coat the bottom of the pot 3 cups chicken stock 1 cup water 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon black pepper Splash of white vinegar to taste ( I like one teaspoon worth )

► Full test in Multihulls World N°199: https://www.multihulls-world.com/review/catamaran/excess-11-return-of-the-overlapping-genoa ► The Excess brand is all about the pleasure of sailing on two hulls, with off-center helm stations and a younger spirit in the choice of materials and colors... but now the time has come to make a difference on the water in terms of performance. The best-selling Excess 11, which has already seen over 200 examples sold since its launch in 2020, is recognized as a comfortable, seakindly catamaran - as witnessed by its many ocean crossings. But in light airs, it remains relatively heavy and lightly canvased compared to the benchmark in its size, the Lagoon 380. Even in the Pulse Line version (with a taller rig), the displacement was 19,850 lbs (9 tonnes) and sail area 882 square feet (82 m²), compared with 16,000 lbs (7.26 t) and 829 sq ft (77 m²) for the 380, i.e. a sail area to weight ratio of 9.11 m²/t and 10.61 m²/t respectively. The manufacturer has therefore modified the self-tacking jib sail plan to adopt an overlapping genoa - a configuration already in use on the Excess 14. This brings the total sail area to 1,028 sq ft (95.5 m²), an increase of 16.5%, which translates into a new ratio of... 10.61 m²/t! In the company of Excess Catamarans’ product manager, Hervé Piveteau, and sales manager, Théo Lelay, our colleague Brieuc Maisonneuve got the chance to appreciate the liveliness of this new Excess 11, particularly when it came to picking up again after tacking. ► TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Builder: Excess Catamarans Architect: VPLP Overall length: 37’6” (11.42 m) Beam: 21’7” (6.59 m) Draft: 3’9” (1.15 m) Displacement: 19,850 lbs (9 t) Upwind sail area: 1,028 sq ft (95.5 m2) - Pulse Line rig Mainsail: 592 sq ft (55 m²) Self-tacking jib: 236 sq ft (22 m²) Code 0: 581 sq ft (54 m²) Motors: 2 x 29 HP Fuel: 105 US gal (400 l) Water: 79 US gal (300 l) Cabins: 3/4 ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 500 multihulls tests!
