Thalmia has begun a singlehanded sailing trip along the south coast of Ireland heading for the Wild West Atlantic coast. I’ll post some more footage at a later date. This was sailing from Courtmacsherry to Glandore - bombing along at over 7knts at times in a beam reach with 1 reef in the main.

Anna, a psychologist from Rotterdam, joined our flotilla to kick off her 6-month sabbatical — and it only took 7 days at sea to feel completely reset. No deadlines. No meetings. Just the rhythm of the ocean, meaningful conversations, and space to finally breathe. Sometimes, a single week is all it takes to reconnect with yourself.

Don’t let their cute eyes fool you! The peacock mantis #shrimp has one of the most powerful punches in the animal kingdom. Its club-like appendages can strike with the speed of a bullet, reaching up to 23 metres per second (about 50 miles per hour). This punch is so forceful that it can break through the shells of #crabs, #clams, and even aquarium glass. The speed of the strike also creates cavitation bubbles, which produce a second impact when they collapse, effectively doubling the mantis shrimp's punch power. ~~~~ #ScubaDiving #Liveaboard #DiveTrips #liveaboardlife #MarineBiodiversity #seacritters #UWPMacro

The boat was completely refitted (deck and cabin sanded, painted, new B&G H5000 electronics all around, new lines, wiring etc) in 2020-2021. Later we have converted it to a German mainsheet system with Harken Performa winches and... https://www.scanboat.com/en/boat-market/boats/sailingboat-corby-33-17494530
