Join us on a 6-day sailing passage from Thursday Island, Australia to Tual, Indonesia aboard our Jeanneau 45 sailboat! ЁЯМКтЫ╡ It was an unforgettable offshore journey filled with epic ocean moments and serious mechanical challenges. We were visited by dolphins riding our bow, caught nothing but sharks, and watched breathtaking sunsetsтАФbut things took a turn when our gearbox failed mid-passage. With no propulsion, we hipped up the dinghy and towed our sailboat to anchorage. Real sailing, raw and unfiltered. Whether you're dreaming of sailing to Indonesia, want to know how to handle a broken gearbox at sea, or love wildlife and sailing adventure content, this short captures it all.

#katknots The Clove Hitch versus the ЁЯеи Ground-Line Hitch. Which is your favourite? Both are great for tying fenders to guardrails, the Ground-line is a little more secure, but there's not much in it. ЁЯФ╕ For both, wind the rope around the rail and cross over diagonally. There is a slight difference where you tuck the working end between the hitches. ЁЯФ╕ Both knots are easy when you get the hang of them. You can make a bight (loop) in the working end before the very last tuck for a quick release version. ЁЯФ╕ Head to https://kats.co/kts for more knot videos.
