☠️ See if we died! https://youtu.be/ERZZe8F01MY Boats use knots instead of MPH. I mean, usually. While sailing the bahamas in a 47' Vagabond sailboat, we hit speeds up to 8 MPH. Do you know how fast that is in knots??!! I'll tell you! And give you the fascinating history of how sailors calculated speed back when I was a kid in the 1600's. #sailing #boats #shorts Why They're Called Knots https://youtube.com/shorts/CRHR-TSY41c photo credit: By Lokilech - Own work, CC BY-SA 3.0, https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?curid=1810012
It’s finally time to cross the Atlantic. All the lights are green, Tiboulen hoists the sails as it leaves the port of Mindelo, sailing alongside three other Jeanneau boats from different generations. ⛵ For most of the crossing, Sail for Tomorrow were on the same tack (port tack at 150° to the wind), with the same sail configuration (wing-on-wing, genoa poled out), and more or less the same speed (5.7 knots on average). The crew experienced some incredible moments during this crossing. Fishing was a highlight, halfway through, they crossed paths with one of the three Jeanneau sailing boats. They will remember all those sunsets, the open ocean offers breathtaking sights. 🌅 Once they reach Martinique, they will meet the primary school class in Tartane that has been following their adventures. ✨ _________________________________________________________________ For more than 60 years, Jeanneau has passionately supported those who love the sea with their quest for happiness and excitement on all the oceans, with the aim of making boating accessible to all.
