Sailing vessel Tapatya This is the story of SV Tapatya, a self-built, Jay Benford designed, 31.8ft, junk schooner-rigged cruising sailboat. The videos are a week-by-week record of our adventures as I live aboard, sail and strive to find out just what such a self-built, low-budget vessel is capable of. These videos take a lot of time and effort to make, in what is already a time-intensive project. Your support in watching, subscribing and sharing these videos is very much appreciated.

Dolphin Encounters: A Sailing Adventure in Croatia Croatia, with its crystal-clear waters and picturesque coastline, is a sailor’s paradise. But it’s not just the stunning views that make sailing here unforgettable; it’s the chance to witness one of nature’s most enchanting spectacles – dolphins swimming alongside your boat. The Dolphin’s Domain Dolphins are known to frequent the Croatian coast, particularly in the Adriatic Sea. These intelligent and playful creatures are often spotted near popular sailing destinations such as the islands of Hvar, Korcula, and Mljet. Their presence is a testament to the rich marine biodiversity that thrives in these waters. Sailing with Dolphins Sailing with dolphins is an experience that combines relaxation with excitement. As you glide through the gentle waves, keep an eye out for these graceful mammals. They may approach your boat curiously, leaping and diving in the water around you. It’s a magical moment that connects you with the natural world in a profound way. Tips for Dolphin Watching Stay Quiet: Dolphins are sensitive to noise, so keep conversations low and avoid loud music. Maintain Distance: Respect their space by keeping a safe distance. Never chase or attempt to touch them. Be Patient: Dolphins may not appear immediately. Patience is key to enjoying this natural encounter. Conservation Efforts Croatia has taken steps to protect its marine life, including dolphins. By supporting eco-friendly sailing practices and respecting wildlife regulations, we can ensure that future generations will also have the opportunity to enjoy these incredible encounters. Conclusion Sailing in Croatia offers more than just a journey across the sea; it’s an opportunity to connect with nature and witness the beauty of dolphins in their natural habitat. So next time you set sail, keep your eyes peeled – you might just have a dolphin companion on your voyage!

The crew on the J109 Going to Red showed how clockwork crew work keeps up your boat speed as you change sails and round a mark. Coming into race the top mark of race 3 of the annual narrows regatta on Strangford Lough the team was overlayed with the kite setup on the wrong side of a gybe set. The team recovered with some clockwork crew work which turned out to be faster than a gybe set. The team did a lightening set on the approach to the mark, quickly getting the jib down and setting up for a gybe where they only lost the kite for a couple of second. The exceptional crew work allowed the team to stretch out their lead going ton to tack the victory and the overall series. The team at bottom up boats hope you are enjoying these quick clips from the 2024 racing season with the days getting longer it will not be too long until the boats is back in the water so we can start making more memories as part of the 2025 season.
