Sailing overnight with just the two of us onboard! Do you agree with these rules?

? Sunday Boat Tip [20/52] ? These are the rules we have set up to feel safer on over night passages as we double hand our sailboat from point A to B. They enhance our chance to get a more peaceful sleep when you are not on watch, knowing that the other person is safe and still on the boat when you wake up. The person on watch must: 1. Wear the personal floating device at all times! 2. If needed to get up on deck, wake up the other one, and then tell when everything is done and you are safely back again. The person asleep does not need to get up, but will keep an ear out until all is done. 3. Hook the safety line to the boat when getting out of the cockpit. 4. Wake the other person up for operations like reefing the main and gybing. The person asleep must: 5. Set the alarm to wake up at the end of shift. Do you have any additional rules you would like to add? Let us know! Don't forget to save this post and share it with a friend who needs to see this ??

We're closing out our series with two passionate voices from the Windelo team: Scott and Thomas. ?? Scott, broker for Just Catamarans, shares his love for the renewable energy systems aboard-solar, hydro, and wind-that give Windelo catamarans unmatched autonomy and eco-responsibility. Meanwhile, Thomas highlights the forward cockpit, a feature that enhances safety, visibility, and makes sailing even more intuitive and enjoyable. From day one, our goal has been to combine comfort performance, sustainability, and smart design-and it's been inspiring to hear what resonates most with our team and community. ? What's your favourite Windelo feature? Let's keep the conversation going in the comments!
