From Ancient Routes to Modern Marvels: Discover the Rio-Antirrio Strait The Patras Bridge (Rio-Antirrio Bridge) is located at the strait of Rio-Antirrio, at the transition between the Gulf of Patras and the Gulf of Corinth. The first person to officially cross the Rio-Antirrio Bridge was a torchbearer as part of the Olympic Torch Relay for the 2004 Athens Olympic Games. The Rio-Antirrio Bridge is one of the world’s longest multi-span cable-stayed bridges. • It connects the Peloponnese peninsula (Rio) with mainland Greece (Antirrio), near the city of Patras. • Officially opened in August 2004, just before the Athens Olympic Games. • Named after Charilaos Trikoupis, a 19th-century Greek Prime Minister who first proposed the idea of such a bridge.

It’s easy to take sail handing and furling systems for granted, after all, the concept has been around for a long time and has transformed the way we sail…bigger boats, higher loads and fewer crew. But for hardware manufacturers Reckmann the development continues.

We love our electric galley but it does use a lot of energy. Luckily, right now, we have our grill for those low-energy days. However, we recently met a friend who has a combo propane/electric galley aboard their boat, and we really like that idea for the next boat :) #diy #sailboat #sailboatproject #boatwork #saillife #liveaboard #liveaboardlife #saltlife #sailing #sailingadventure #travel ingcouple #livingonaboat #boatgalley #boatgalleycooking
