Some people buy a boat before knowing what it takes to sail and maintain it. Different rig options require more or less physical labor. For example, we have slab reefing allowing us to sail faster due to a fully battened main HOWEVER we have to climb into the boom to straighten the sail before covering it. Alternatively, having a main that can be furled requires much less effort (but the boat goes a wee bit slower). Make sure you are happy with what it takes to make a boat work…with so many options, there’s a right boat for you. :) #sailinglife #sailing #sailboat

È tutto pronto ad Antigua per il via della 12a edizione della RORC Caribbean 600, che per i multiscafi partirà domani alle 11.30 ora locale (15.30 UTC, 16.30 ora italiana) da Fort Charlotte, mezz’ora dopo la partenza prevista per le altre classi. Giovanni Soldini e Maserati Multi 70 gareggeranno con altri 7 multiscafi, tra cui i loro diretti rivali in assetto MOD, l’americano Argo e l’inglese PowerPlay. A bordo di entrambi navigheranno due equipaggi forti ed esperti: Brian Thompson e Franck Cammas saranno a bordo di Argo, Loick Peyron su PowerPlay. Le condizioni meteo previste per questa edizione della regata non sono favorevoli: i modelli indicano un aliseo instabile, con poco vento soprattutto per le prime 12 ore di regata. Giovanni Soldini commenta: “Maserati Multi 70 con i suoi foil volanti dà il meglio di sé con vento intorno ai 15 nodi per cui queste condizioni non sono ideali, ma noi venderemo cara la pelle come sempre!” #MaseratiMulti70 #Caribbean600 Sito web: https://maserati.soldini.it/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/giovannisoldini/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/giovanni_soldini/ Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/giovannisoldini/
