#shorts #shorts #subscribe @SailingKawai Follow along as we sail to amazing destinations around the world. Full video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BKqjmVe7Aus We are really excited to share this video, a beautiful place with so much natural beauty. Butterfly Valley is a bit of a special place because so few people can get to the beach. Only accessible via boat or a steep hike down a cliff face, this paradise was a favorite of ours. We begin our journey from Fethiye in Southern Turkey and leave early in our Hanse 445 sail boat. Our plan is to leave early to get the pick of the anchorage and beat all the tourist boats who arrive from around 11am. It's also important to choose a calm day with favourable wind and swell conditions. The research we had conducted showed many of the tourist boats would land their boats on the left hand side of the bay. When we arrived the right hand side was free, with a perfect spot in front of the swimming enclosure. We dropped in 28m and let out 40m of chain. We spent the next couple of hours swimming and exploring this beautiful area, spotting numerous sea turtles, schools of fish and snorkeling the rocks nearby. We also took the tender out and explored the rocks away from the beach. There is a hike up through Butterfly valley that is worth while. It costs 10TL to enter the valley which takes you through the valley into a canyon with steep walls and 2 waterfalls which cool the entire area. There are some cables drilled into the rocks to assist you to climb higher up the valley which gives you access to better views and the waterfalls. There are 105 butterfly species that call the valley home, but they aren't easy to find. I am fortunate to find 3 different species of butterfly. When I return from my walk the once peaceful Butterfly Valley is filled with noise and tourist boats which changes the feel of the place. I would definitely recommend arriving early and spending the first couple hours of the day soaking up the tranquility. We decide to spend the night at Karacaören Restaurant, which has buoys for sailboats to tie-up to for free if you dine at the restaurant. The water looks similar to Butterfly Valley, a perfect blue with great clarity. The evening is spent dining at the restaurant, taking in the special view and enjoying great company, a perfect day in paradise. About us: Our names are Jason and Tracey and we traded our house, cars, business, job and security for freedom, adventure, travel and living simply amongst nature and the seas on our 45 foot Hanse 445 sailing boat, Kawai. We don't know exactly where the winds will take us at this stage but over the last couple years we have sailed to Turkey, Greece, Montenegro, Croatia. Jase loves making travel videos and we decided to upload to youtube to share our adventure.

► Full test in Multihulls World N°192: https://www.multihulls-world.com/review/motor/valder-20-a-powercat-for-james-bond ► When New Zealand offshore powerboat racer Wayne Valder decided to take an interest in building a cruising powercat, the result was always going to be a (very) fast machine! “I’m used to racing my MTI catamaran at over 120 knots on the US offshore circuit, so even though I hadn’t planned anything that fast in recreational boat form, I still wanted something with reasonable performance,” Wayne tells us. His quest led him to one of the big names in high-performance leisure catamarans, Roger Hill, who designed a large 67-foot (20 m) catamaran equipped with a self-stabilizing foil system. This powercat was then built in a foam/carbon/epoxy sandwich and fitted with a powerful drivetrain (2 x 1,300 HP) to reach 45 knots. Cruising speed is between 18 knots - the speed at which the foils start to work - and 30 knots, where range is still 1,143 miles (with a 10% reserve). Particular attention has been paid to soundproofing and vibration suppression. The layout can be customized according to the Owner's wishes, as can the deck layout: the flybridge version can even accommodate a (small) helicopter, though a Sedan version also features in the catalog. ► TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Builder: Valder Yachts Length overall: 67’7” (20.6 m) Waterline length: 56’1” (17.1 m) Beam: 22’ (6.7 m) Draft: 33” (0.83 m) Light displacement: 66,000 lbs (30 t) Max laden displacement: 88,625 lbs (40.2 t) Max. speed: 45 knots Cruising speed: 18 to 30 knots Range at 9 knots: approx. 4,000 miles Drivetrain: 2 x MAN V8 1,300 HP Fuel: 2,500 US gal (9,460 l) Water: 440 US gal (1,675 l) ► Become a FREE SUBSCRIBER to Multihulls World's YouTube page now - https://www.youtube.com/c/MultihullsWorld ► Log on to our website to discover over 500 multihulls tests!

I am still trying to diagnose the issue with a lack of water running through the engine. I took the cover off the impeller (water pump) just to eliminate that as a cause. It looks fine. So, based on on my gathered intel, I am now assuming that the problem is a blocked intake (thru-hull) under the boat. That means that I need to go for a swim at some point soon. The temperature of the water is now 44 degrees. 🥶 Restoring this old sailboat is continuing my education on marine mechanics. Love it!
