SAILING ILLUSTRATED #799 (Fri 10 Jan 2025) — “It’s been an interesting first two days for us,” commented Gavin Brady (USA) on top with Nick Egnot-Johnson (NZL) and Ian Williams (GBR) at the 2025 Macao Match Cup. “Despite us not managing to do a great deal of preparation for the event, as well as other teams, we are sailing well. There are a lot of wind shifts here, but also a lot of passing lanes to keep the racing close – a great event so far.” Reminder that our SI Person of the Year will be announced on our 800th show on 14 January 2025.... SAILING ILLUSTRATED is hosted by Tom Ehman (USA), with Julia Wedekind (USA), Jon Emmett (GBR), Alistair Murray (AUS) and the FOSI. As always our live video podcast airs on Facebook (fb.com/sailingillustratedblog) and the Sailing Illustrated TV YouTube channel every Tuesday and Friday at 1300 Pacific / 2100 UTC, or watch a replay on-demand later.

Did you know that on board a Windelo, you can run the air conditioning using ONLY renewable energies? Many of you plan to sail in a tropical hot and humid climate, and you hesitate to install an AC on your boat. Even though our catamarans are built to have ample airflow throughout the boat, you might still seek even more comfort. You will be pleased to learn that, on your Windelo, you can run your AC from batteries (without using the genset!). Both models of New Windelo (the 50 and the 54) offer you enough solar power to run it from renewable energies, not using a drop of fossil fuel or plugging into shore! If you were, last week at the Miami International Boat Show, you had the opportunity to visit Joules, a New Windelo 50. But did you know that Joule produced its energy during the show thanks to the solar panels (an average of 3.4 kWh) and consumed 1.3 kWh of energy (leaving a positive balance of 1.6 kWh)? It is interesting to point out that this consumption also included the AC, fridge, and freezer! So, with the New Windelo, when choosing the AC option for your more tropical adventures, your energy will still come solely from renewable resources! Whenever you search for even more energy, activate the hydro-generation when you are sailing under sail, and you can also choose the wind turbine(s) as the energy source. Contact us to configure your boat according to your sailing program: sales@windelo-catamaran.com! We will be delighted to learn more about your sailing dreams! ……… Saviez-vous qu'à bord d'un Windelo, vous pouvez faire fonctionner la climatisation en utilisant UNIQUEMENT des énergies renouvelables ? Vous êtes nombreux à envisager de naviguer en zone tropicale avec un climat chaud et humide, et hésitez à installer une climatisation sur votre bateau. Même si nos catamarans sont construits pour offrir une circulation d'air suffisante dans tout le bateau, vous recherchez peut-être encore plus de confort. Vous serez heureux d'apprendre que, sur votre Windelo, vous pouvez faire fonctionner votre climatisation uniquement à partir de vos batteries (soit sans utiliser le groupe électrogène !). Les New Windelo (le 50 et le 54) vous offrent suffisamment d'énergie solaire pour que la climatisation et vos éléments de confort fonctionnent grâce aux énergies renouvelables, sans utiliser une goutte de combustible fossile et sans se brancher sur le quai ! Si vous étiez la semaine dernière au Miami International Boat Show, vous avez eu l'occasion de visiter Joules, un New Windelo 50. Mais saviez-vous que Joule était autonome en énergie durant tout le salon ? Grâce aux panneaux solaires Joule produisait en moyenne 3,4 kWh et consommait 1,3 kWh (soit un bilan énergétique positif de 1,6 kWh). Il est intéressant de souligner que cette consommation incluait notamment la climatisation, le réfrigérateur et le congélateur ! Ainsi, avec le New Windelo, en choisissant l'option AC pour vos aventures les plus tropicales, vous serez autonome grâce à votre production d'énergie renouvelable ! Et quand vos besoins d'énergie augmentent, activez le mode hydro-génération lorsque vous naviguez sous voiles, et/ou choisissez l’option éolienne(s) comme source d'énergie. Contactez-nous pour configurer votre bateau selon votre programme de navigation : sales@windelo-catamaran.com ! Nous serons ravis d’en apprendre plus sur vos rêves de navigation ! * * * * * #windelo #windelocatamaran #ecocatamaran #NewWindelo50 #NewWindelo54 #NewWindelo50Adventure #NewWindelo50Yachting #NewWindelo54Yachting #solarboat #solarboats #greensailing #sustainablesailing #electricsailing #circumnavigation #responsibletravel #ecofriendlylifestyle #ecofriendlyproduct #ecofriendlydesign #electricboat #electriccatamaran #hybridboat #hybridyacht #sailboat #sailing #sailingaroundtheworld #sailingboat #sailinglife #sailinglifestyle #sailinglover #sailingpassion
