After sailing 32,500 nautical miles around the world I want to give a shout out to my two loyal and exceptional crew members. They never talk back to me, require feeding or fall asleep on watch. In a perfect world they would make cups of tea and wash the dishes but I can't complain. The Aries windvane has kept Fathom on course in all sorts of conditions from 5knots of wind to 50knots of wind, flat seas to tumbling waves, upwind and downwind. I couldn't have got this far without it and have spent many hours watching it do its business without complaint using no electricity and only the power of the wind, a truly fantastic piece of engineering. Secondly the Aquair 100 tow gen. The generator is mounted on the pushpit and the forward motion of the boat spins a metal propeller at the end of 20m of rope. In winds over 15kts the drag created is unimportant and in tandem with the solar panel it keeps the batteries full and the fridge going 24/7. Cheers to both!

Most sailing yachts are made of fiberglass, so the boat itself doesn’t cause compass deviation like steel ships do. But your compass can still be affected by electronics, wiring, engines, and even mobile phones on board. In this short video, we explain: • What compass deviation really is • Why fiberglass boats still have deviation • How electronics can disturb your compass • Why keeping devices away from the compass matters A must-know navigation tip for beginner and intermediate sailors. 👍 Follow for more quick sailing theory and navigation tips. #Sailing #Navigation #Compass #Deviation #SailingTheory #LearnToSail #Sailboat #Yachting #SailingShorts #Nautical
