Min kompass går inte att sätta någon kåpa på, för att skydda den mot solen när båten inte används. Men en handduk kan enkelt sättas fast och göra jobbet.

100 meters to the finish, we’re holding third place — then suddenly, the sound of the rudder chain snapping, and the yacht luffs sharply into the wind. The skipper stayed calm and acted fast, inserting the emergency tiller into the rudder stock to regain direct control of the rudder blade, bypassing the wheel. Thanks to the quick response, the yacht lost only a few positions and still crossed the finish line successfully. Back in the marina, technicians from the charter company were called in. They repaired the system and installed a new steering chain. A valuable lesson: never ignore play or looseness in the wheel — it’s often the first sign of trouble. #PAPARegatta #PAPARegatta2012 #TheArtOfSailing #ArtOfSailing #RudderFailure #CroatiaYachting #CroatiaSailing

📍If Gypsea Explorer were a human, her sails would be the arms that catch the wind, carrying us through the water. 💨🌊 ✅ We have three sails on our Sceptre 41; a Mainsail, a gib and an asymmetrical spinnaker. They all have different and important functions. 😱 When we went sailing on a little test ride, the Mainsail ripped, so we had to do a quick repair. The fantastic Kelly at Ullman Sails, made us a new Mainsail, and inspected our other sails. The Gib was sent to Bainbridge Island for a good scrubbing.
