Sea Anchor = Ancora Galleggiante • Si lancia a prua • Serve a fermare o rallentare la barca mantenendola allineata con le onde e controvento • Utile in situazioni di emergenza, maltempo o per stazionare temporaneamente senza dare fondo all’ancora vera e propria Sea Drogue (o para-sea) - NON è un’ancora galleggiante • Si lancia a poppa • Non ferma la barca, ma la rallenta e la stabilizza mentre continua ad avanzare • Usato soprattutto per controllare la barca con mare al giardinetto (onde da dietro), evitando che acceleri o si intraversi 👉 In sintesi: • Sea Anchor / Ancora galleggiante = davanti, per fermare • Sea Drogue = dietro, per rallentare e stabilizzare
The Vaan R5 is the perfect size for extended blue water sailing or a family live-aboard. Like the R4, the R5 sailing catamaran is made of sustainable and circular materials such as recycled aluminium, FSC certified cork decking and recycled fabrics. And it's all-electric. ▫️ @Vaan ▫️ Forward in the owner's hull is a luxury bathroom with a spacious shower. The mirror slides sideways to open a cabinet and three large drawers and shelves give you all the storage you need. Aft is a luxurious owner's cabin. ▫️ The R5 comes in two versions: the open cockpit and the closed cockpit live-aboard version, the R5-LA.
