100 meters to the finish, we’re holding third place — then suddenly, the sound of the rudder chain snapping, and the yacht luffs sharply into the wind. The skipper stayed calm and acted fast, inserting the emergency tiller into the rudder stock to regain direct control of the rudder blade, bypassing the wheel. Thanks to the quick response, the yacht lost only a few positions and still crossed the finish line successfully. Back in the marina, technicians from the charter company were called in. They repaired the system and installed a new steering chain. A valuable lesson: never ignore play or looseness in the wheel — it’s often the first sign of trouble. #PAPARegatta #PAPARegatta2012 #TheArtOfSailing #ArtOfSailing #RudderFailure #CroatiaYachting #CroatiaSailing

Welcome aboard SV Freya, this is QP and Willard. Thank You very much for joining us on our adventures, Like, Share, follow, subscribe and treat us to a gigabyte of data at Patreon.com/svfreya. Your support is very much appreciated! We left Bennett’s Harbor headed for Rock Sound, Eleuthera, Bahamas Little San Salvador was bought by Holland America cruise line and renamed Half Moon Cay. It’s now a private island just for cruise ship customers. We anchored over night in Half Moon Bay where we could see the tourist area. The water is a beautiful blue over white sand. See the video. The beach is cleaned by two tractors in the early morning and the workers are ferried in before the cruise ship anchors to unload its passengers. QP did a bit of modeling and fishing before the sun went down, this is a must see video! We left early the next morning at dawn. Next stop, John Millar’s on the southern tip of Eleuthera.
