Elvstrom Sails UK team installing a new Epex Fat Furl mainsail to a Hallberg-Rassy 412, which required a much needed rig tune. It is so important to check your rig before you go sailing, this rig was slightly inverted, and after taking some measurements and resetting the rigging we were able to put the correct tension and pre-bend profile into the rig. We would recommend a yearly rig tune as well as before any sail is bent on, it’s great tha we do now offer this service in house at Elvstrom Sails UK.

Day 2. Today was a rough one. I’ve been feeling really sick, and everything I did felt like a huge effort. Even small things would completely drain me, so I ended up spending a lot of time just lying down in between the sail changes I needed to do. The first half of the day especially just knocked me out. Not ideal when your partner is seasick in addition and not really able to help either… but here we are, still getting through it. Luckily the weather has been pretty calm, which made a big difference. At least we didn’t have to deal with anything too demanding on top of everything else. But we both know there’s stronger weather coming. So for now, it’s just about getting through today and hoping we recover quickly. 🌊 ⚓ Life on the Showgirl is my journey toward one of the toughest solo sailing races on the planet: the Golden Globe Race — sailed solo, non-stop, and without modern technology. Follow along as I learn, prepare, and chase a dream that feels bigger than me. ------------------------------------------ New videos EVERY 7th of the month ------------------------------------------ EXCLUSIVE CONTENT!!: https://www.patreon.com/classicmara ------------------------------------------ Follow Mara: https://www.instagram.com/classicmara_/ __________________________ Support me: PayPal: https://www.paypal.me/helgamarielk Vipps: 39088 - Classic Mara Venmo: https://account.venmo.com/u/griedy1 GoFundMe: https://gofund.me/173a9a5e6 __________________________ Affiliate links: Dakota Lithium Batteries: https://www.awin1.com/cread.php?awinmid=79634&awinaffid=2732466&ued=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.dakotalithium.com Orca Navigation System: https://getorca.com/?via=classicmara PitViper: https://www.pitviper.com/discount/CLASSICMARA?redirect=%2F&utm_campaign=money%2Bcounters&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_source=upfluence
