THIS BOAT IS WAY TOO BIG FOR THIS CANAL 😳 People stopped. Phones out. One wrong move and it’s OVER. Would you stay and watch… or RUN? 👀👇 ⚠️ AI-generated sailing video — not a real incident #Sailing #BoatLife #CanalSailing #NarrowCanal #CrazyMoments #ViralShorts #Reels #TikTokViral #ShipSpotting

After sailing over 20,000 nm on our monohull ForTuna and 7,000 nm on the catamaran Zambezi, we’re finally ready to share our honest opinion on the never-ending Catamaran vs Monohull debate. For this review, we compared both boats in 4 key aspects: 1️⃣ Sailing performance on long passages A tie. The cat is faster, but needs way more wind to move. Moreover when sailing close-hauled, the main dominates and maneuvering in higher winds often requires the engine’s help. 2️⃣ Sailing comfort This one surprised us. Catamarans are shockingly uncomfortable once the sea starts moving. Each wave hits twice, the hulls slam, the rig creaks, and our bodies couldn’t predict the motion. On a monohull, the movement is linear, predictable and our stomachs are much happier. 3️⃣ Living comfort The cat wins. The space, light, and “upper-level living” are unbeatable. But you’ll also find it hard to hide from the sun. 4️⃣ Maintenance Another tie. Double the hulls, double the engines, double the systems. Whatever you spend or fix on a monohull, double it for a catamaran. That said, redundancy can be a plus offshore. Our verdict: We’re staying on a monohull. The living space of a catamaran is tempting, but the sailing comfort just isn’t for us. We plan to keep crossing oceans and we’d rather live smaller than be seasick. What’s your take on the cat vs mono debate? Stay salty, Greta & Michael 🌊 #sailing #sailboat #boatlife⚓️ #liveaboard #sailboatlife #sailingadventure

Giorno 153 - buone notizie? Tutto parte nel verso sbagliato. “Ehi Frank, dove sei?” “A fort de France con la famiglia.” Lo aspettavamo in mattinata per rimontare l’argano con le spazzole nuove. Alla fine è tornato, ci ha ridato l’argano come prima, ma dando una bella spruzzata di crc alle molle delle spazzole è tornato in vita forte e vigoroso. Torniamo in barca e ci aspetta il rimontaggio. Sotto un caldo torrido. Un’altra giornata fermi in marina.. Ma inutile infastidirsi, come diceva Cami ieri, non bisogna prendersela per eventi di cui non si ha il controllo. Finito di rimontare l’argano, festeggiato per il suo funzionamento, facciamo due passi e vediamo una meraviglia. Un catamarano sollevato da un pallone pieno d’aria per lavorare sul sail drive dell’elica. Geniale, bizzarro, francese. Questa volta direi efficace! Ora doccia e poi una cena gigante, la fame è tantissima oggi! A domani! Un abbraccio A.
