Finalmente abbiamo comprato la barca... di nuovo! Trovare qualcosa di giusto per noi, allineato al nostro budget con i prezzi delle barche usate alle stelle non è stata un'operazione facile... ma come sempre ci piace fare tutto quello che in generale le persone "sane di mente" considerano impossibile! Così eccoci qui! Qualcuno come noi si è scontrato con il rincaro dei prezzi dell'usato? Ehi e quasi dimenticavo! Abbiamo deciso di ricominciare a raccontarvi le nostre peripezie sul canale YouTube Valeila Sail. Scrivici la tua nei commenti! Ahoi marinai! #vivereinbarca #valeilasail #famigliainbarca

Discover the Granocean W-60 | Luxury Power Catamaran Yacht Learn more here: https://catamaranguru.com/gran-ocean-power-catamarans/ Working with Stimson Marine, computational fluid dynamics (CFD) is employed to study hull variations to arrive at most suitable final form. And is further used for individual load cases in customized layout designs. Howard Apollonio has drawn up outstanding semi-planing hull lines to achieve excellent sea keeping, long range efficency at low speeds and great planing characteristics at high speeds. Welcome to a behind-the-scenes tour at Granocean Shipyards, where craftsmanship and engineering meet in the construction of the W-60 — a 60-foot performance cruising yacht designed with precision, philosophy, and structural integrity. Eric, the lead builder, stays after hours to guide us through the current state of the build. With the hull and deck now jointed, the team has entered a critical phase: installing the main deck sole and lower deck sole — key structural components that unify the vessel. Structural Methodology Spotlight Eric emphasizes the importance of cohesive connectivity between all components. Four continuous bulkheads run transversely from port to starboard, forming the backbone of the boat. These aren’t just structural walls — they are integrated load pathways that connect the hull, deck, cockpit, and bilge into a single high-integrity unit. Every cut, bond, and layout choice reflects a deeply considered philosophy of durability, performance, and system harmony. The W-60 is the product of years of refinement at Granocean, known for custom high-performance catamarans that marry engineering integrity with owner-led customization. The W-series was born from a desire to break with traditional compromise-laden layouts and instead create vessels optimized from the hull up. The W-60 leverages lessons learned from the early W-52s and 62s, while integrating client feedback and performance testing across oceans. Each W-series hull carries forward a philosophy of monocoque strength, minimized vibration, and exacting weight distribution. Whether you're a seasoned sailor, aspiring builder, or simply fascinated by the inner workings of yacht construction, this video offers a detailed, unfiltered look at how expert shipwrights bring a high-performance vessel to life. 🛥️ KEY FEATURES: - 60-foot (17.9m) length with a 28.5 ft beam for unmatched interior space - Open or enclosed flybridge configurations, plus a sports-fisher version - Interior by Vripack – choose from Mediterranean, Scandinavian, Elegant Chique, or Cosmopolitan styles - Twin diesel engines with options up to 715 HP for speeds up to 26 knots - Ocean-capable with CE Certification Category A - Fully customizable layout and finish for discerning owners - Semi-planing flared hulls with high bridge deck clearance for superior seakeeping - Advanced composite construction with carbon reinforcement and structural engineering by Gurit Structural Engineer: Gurit SP Naval Architect: Howard Apollonio Designer: Eric So – Granocean Interior: VRIPACK Overall length: 58.70 feet / 17.90 meters Maximum beam: 28.50 feet / 8.70 meters Draft: 4.00 feet / 1.20 meters Maximum displacement: 30.000 Kg/ 66.140 lbs Engines: 2 x Cummins QSB6.7 380mhp Diesel Engine Fuel: 4,500 Liters/1,320 US gallons Fresh water: 1,000 Liters /264 US gallons Stay tuned for more information about GranOcean and its catamarans.

LIKE, SUBSCRIBE and COMMENT - VOTE Yes if you think the Transom doors are safe and NO if you think they are NOT!!! WATCH - https://youtu.be/_wK55agpLYk Are transom doors on Portofino catamarans a brilliant innovation… or a serious offshore risk? 🌊⚠️ In this episode, we take a deep dive into one of the most debated design features of the Portofino 52 catamaran — the aft transom doors that give incredible sea access, but also sit directly in the firing line of following seas and breaking waves. We ask the hard questions every offshore sailor should ask: • Can transom doors leak in heavy seas? • Could they fail catastrophically in extreme conditions? • Are storm boards really necessary — or outdated? • How strong is 15mm acrylic (Perspex) when it’s wave-slammed? • What happens to acrylic after years of sun exposure? To get real answers, we go straight to the source — Rafael, the designer — and break down the engineering, materials, certifications, drainage systems, gaskets, aluminum frames, and wave-impact design behind these doors. This isn’t theory. This is real-world boatbuilding, explained in detail. You’ll also learn: ✔️ Why these doors are RINA-certified watertight ✔️ How pressure from waves actually seals the door tighter ✔️ Why the dive room acts as a coffer dam for safety and buoyancy ✔️ The hidden long-term danger of UV-damaged Perspex ✔️ Why older boats fail — and modern ones don’t We finish by putting the decision back to you. 👉 Would you trust these transom doors offshore? 👉 Storm boards: Yes or No? Drop your vote in the comments and join the debate.
