NormandyDog heading home after a day out to Illes Chausey off the French coast. It's 23 miles home and the winds now a force 5 right on the nose and the seas are building. That's why you buy an Orkney, it's gonna get you home every time.

Nunca imaginábamos que navegar por San Blas fuera tan complicado por todos sus bajos de corales, 🪸y a su vez, tan satisfactorio, ya que casi siempre podemos izar las velas para poder navegar, ⛵️como toca!!! Eso sí!!! Gracias a las cartas de @disventingenieros @mytimezero y bahuaus, que nos ayudan a navegar sin problemas entre los corales. Hay que ir con cuidado, ya que todos los años algún velero se queda embarrancado o hundido 🙈 . . . #sail #sailing #sailing_lasonambula #velero #catamaran #sailboat #paradise #caribe #carib #navegaravela #navegarporelmundo #travel #sailingaroundtheworld #playasnorkeling #paradiseawaits #viento #vela #sails #panama #anchor #barco #barcos #navega #barcohundido #sanblas #atlanticcrossing

The Ashely Stopper knot has a relatively large stopper which is super secure after applying a small amount of load to tighten. These characteristics make it a great choice when you are using thinner rope and are looking for a big stopper. For a detailed video tutorial follow the link below. https://youtu.be/2syCRm6zdAE Ashley's stopper knot, also known as the oysterman's stopper, is a knot developed by Clifford W. Ashley around 1910. It makes a well-balanced trefoil-faced stopper at the end of the rope, giving greater resistance to pulling through an opening than other common stoppers. Ashley developed this knot in trying to duplicate a knot he saw on a boat in a local oyster fishing fleet. When he had a chance to observe the knot up close at a later time he realised it was just a badly water-swollen figure eight stopper knot. The Ashely stopper Oysterman's stopper knot has three rim parts, and these are quite symmetrical when viewed from the underside. From this view it closely resembles a three-strand wall knot. The end is nipped by a single top part. It is easy to tie and practical to use when the hole that is to be filled is too large for the figure-eight or either a single or double overhand knot. If you want to master even more knots why not pick up a copy of the definitive book on knots. The Ashley Book of Knot has approximately 3900 different kinds, from simple hitches to “Marlinspike Seamanship.” Mr. Ashley has included almost everything there is to know about them. Precisely named and classified (some new ones for the first time officially), they can be easily found in the big index. He tells when they appeared, something about their history, and what they are good for. . https://amzn.to/3fkisle We hope you enjoyed todays video, thanks for stopping by and supporting Bottom up Boats, as an amazon associate we get commission from associated sales.

Whether you were looking at the front or the back of the fleet, the Indian Ocean showed its teeth this week. A series of major low pressure systems were piling on the pressure for all, both mentally and physically. From damaged gear to broken boats, this was a week where the conditions were intimidating as the strong winds and wild sea state took their toll. But this is still a race and key tactical decisions needed to be made. And despite the intimidating conditions, the front runners made some punchy , high risk calls. This was a week of broken boats, big gambles and extraordinary tactics.
