? Sunday Boat Tip [2/52] ? I think you would be surprised by the number of boats we see with flapping sails as they try to motor against the wind ? I'm saying you should stop this now! Not only will you save the sails to last longer, you will also ? Increase your boat speed ? Decrease your fuel consumption ? Make the boat go smoother in the waves ? Less noise Motor sailing can have its benefits, and even though we prefer sailing it would be lying to say we never give a little support with the diesel engine, especially sailing behind islands where the wind is usually all over the place. By giving a little extra push with the engine we can go higher up towards the wind or sail over choppy waves in conditions that would normally be to light. If you still want to go dead straight into the wind? DROP YOUR SAILS!! They are not doing ANYTHING good by just flopping like that! Share this to someone who you think should be a little kinder to their sails ?

? Full article in Multihulls World N°201: https://www.multihulls-world.com/articles-catamaran-trimaran/great-abaco-where-cruising-becomes-magical ? Located 180 miles east-northeast of Miami, the Abaco Islands archipelago is a string of low coral and sand islands scattered across a giant swimming pool... Here, thanks to their shoal draft, the multihull is king - which is not the case for big keelboats. In a soothing and enchanting atmosphere, you will discover traditional villages, beaches with sand as white as flour and reefs rich in marine life. From the Sunsail base in Marsh Harbour, we crisscrossed the water for you as far as Nunjack Cay in the north and Little Harbour in the south. Ready to feast your eyes on turquoise beauty? ?
