Before sailing to BVIs and San Juan on my friend's boat, we put my dinghy on the deck and outboard stored away. Two of us did that but when I got back, it was just me to put it back in the water. The time lapse misses some of the bug wind gusts that made the dinghy hard to manage. Getting the dinghy in the water wasn't so bad but the outboard was tough. It's pretty heavy and we stored it in an awkward spot for one person to get it out. But everything worked out in the end.

More progress towards connecting nearly 2.5kw of solar to our three 48V battery banks. We are now living aboard our Rival 38 Centre Cockpit full-time while finishing a refit so we can launch ASAP. We have a frequently updated blog at https://sustainablesailing.net with membership options and a weekly newsletter at £2 per month for Early Bird Supporters. Our free Sustainable Sailing book is at: https://sustainablesailing.codeberg.p... Or visit our shop at https://sustainablesailing.teemill.com/ for great hoodies, t-shirts and bags. When we bought Vida in August 2019 she was in a very tired and damp condition with all original equipment and fittings (much of it not working). We have removed all the gas, diesel and paraffin equipment, and are installing all-electric (motor, cooking etc).

Offset yacht costs with bona fide tax advantages and charter income! Most of our catamaran owners of larger vessels over 50 ft place these boats into one of several crewed charter programs. The basic idea is that the boat is operated as a business, which enables the owner to reduce the cost of ownership through the use of available tax advantages and income from charters. All our owners in these crewed yacht charter programs have successfully created small businesses and achieved their ultimate goals. It is the most cost-effective way to own a big luxury catamaran! The current trend in catamaran ownership is to go bigger! We have in recent years consulted with several clients to buy large flagship catamarans like Lagoon 77, Fountaine Pajot Alegria 67, and Bali 5.4, into crewed charter programs all over the world. These luxury catamarans are not only a great vacation and adventure travel holiday for you and your family but also serves as your own private all-inclusive tropical resort, anywhere in the world. But these catamarans are expensive to buy and expensive to maintain. All of our large catamaran buyers look for a way to offset the cost of ownership. There are several ways to achieve your goal of owning a luxury charter yacht in an exotic location: Buy a big sailing catamaran outright and sail it yourself Hire a crew to sail you around to simply enjoy the lifestyle without ever chartering the boat Or what most savvy large yacht owners do, find a way for the crewed yacht to pay its own way through charter income to offset costs.
