Ahoy adventurers! Today, we're exploring an extraordinary Atlantic jewel - Marina da Horta in the Azores, 750 miles west of Portugal. This isn't your typical marina. Thousands of colourful paintings cover it, each telling the story of a sailing journey across the Atlantic. It's a tradition as old as the marina, making every corner a canvas of maritime history. Stroll through Horta's enchanting streets, where traditional architecture meets volcanic beauty. The basalt mosaic sidewalks lead you to the legendary Peter's Café Sport - a sailors' sanctuary where ocean tales flow as freely as the local wine. Ready to explore this Atlantic paradise? You can chart your course to seatv.world for our complete visual guide to Horta 👉🏼 https://seatv.world/location/azores-portugal/docking/horta-marina-faial-island-azores Tell us below: would you cross the Atlantic to paint your boat's story on these famous walls?

Catamarans are the perfect boats to dry out on a beach, or, as many do in tidal areas (including ourselves), use a half tide drying mooring. If the boat has daggerboards then sensibly the rudders should lift to avoid damage, especially if the tide/wind causes waves when refloating. I have used the method seen in this video for 40 years. Very simple and works easily. Please note that this boat is over 30 years old, and I had never tried to lift the rudders with one hand before! Hence the initial hesitation. They would lift more easily if the shafts were greased. A simple snap hook holds the rudder up. Some people use "dinghy style" lifting rudders but that means the blades stick out behind the boat, which has often led to breakages when in a crowded anchorage and unsuspecting dinghies pass in the night. This rudder system works exactly like a conventional semi-balanced rudder when it in the down position. And has the advantage that the whole rudder can be taken off the boat by simply undoing one bolt. And no shaft leaks either! The thin ropes led through blocks to a cleat on the tiller are connected to the outboard. So the engine turns with the rudders, significantly increasing manouverability! I write more about steering systems on my website, see here https://www.sailingcatamarans.com/index.php/19-faqs/sailing-and-performance-questions/109-which-steering-system-should-i-use
