Part 1 - We were preparing to leave for Koh Lipe on a friend's sailboat when this happened. The engine wasn't starting so the owner decided to check the fuel injectors as he suspected there maybe water in them. Upon opening the second injector, water came shooting out! Why and how? Anyone have any ideas? #Shorts #marineengineer #yanmar #24hourtravellers #sailboats #yachts #sailorslife

SW96#05 Liberty, a yacht built by sailors for smart sailors. Since day one, SW96#05 Liberty has been the result of fantastic and seamless teamwork, and working with the owner and his team has been an absolute pleasure. The collective, ongoing feedback from the owner, his captain-an experienced superyacht sailor- and his advisor - a professional racer - has provided us with accurate and balanced input. The result of this process is a boat that has been defined and built by sailors for smart sailors.

The Joy of Sailing with the Wind There's a reason why sailing has captured imaginations for centuries. It's more than just gliding across water; it's a harmonious dance with the wind, a feeling of freedom like nothing else. Here in Croatia, the Adriatic Sea becomes a stage for this exhilarating experience, where the wind becomes your silent partner, propelling you towards unforgettable adventures. Feeling the Freedom: When the Wind Takes Over Imagine this: you're on the deck of a sailboat, the sun warm on your skin. The engine purrs to a quiet stop, replaced by the gentle whoosh of the wind filling the sails. Suddenly, the boat picks up speed, heeling slightly as it slices through the water with newfound life. You're no longer a passenger; you're part of a living system, working with the wind to explore hidden coves and secluded beaches. More Than Speed: The Symphony of Wind and Sail The joy of sailing with the wind goes beyond mere speed. It's a symphony of senses. You feel the pull of the wind on the sails, hear its rhythmic whisper, and smell the salty air tinged with the scent of pines and distant islands. It's a meditative state, where the worries of everyday life drift away as you focus on the dance between boat, wind, and sea. Mastering the Art: From Beginner to Wind Whisperer The best part? You don't need years of experience to enjoy sailing with the wind. Croatia offers a variety of options, from beginner-friendly day trips to courses that teach you the basics of sail handling. As you learn, the satisfaction grows. You start to understand the subtle shifts in wind direction, adjust the sails accordingly, and feel the boat respond, turning you into a true wind whisperer. Beyond the Practical: The Emotional Connection with the Wind Sailing with the wind isn't just about the destination; it's about the journey. It fosters a deep connection with nature, a sense of awe at the power and beauty of the wind. It's a reminder that sometimes, the most exhilarating adventures come from harnessing the forces around us, rather than fighting against them. Setting Sail for Adventure: Your Croatian Wind-Powered Journey So, the next time you're in Croatia, ditch the landlubber activities and set sail. Let the wind be your guide, explore hidden coves, and experience the joy of a truly unique adventure. The Adriatic awaits, its turquoise waters and gentle breezes promising an experience that will stay with you long after you return to shore.
