In July of 2014 I purchased a 42 ft sailboat. She was built in 1985 by Hallberg Rassy in Sweden. In this series of videos I will be documenting my experiences as I fix things, break things and alternate between the pleasure of sailing and the sheer terror of narrowly averting disaster. In other words, the life of a sailboat owner. Click the subscribe button to follow along.

Okay, this one is an option, but it’s great and we’re going to go with it on Mira. Advantages: Lighter Longer life-span Stronger and can actually bear the force of redirecting lines via a carabiner/shackle Allows way more water to flow through(safer) More resilient with individual Dyneema lashings instead of using one or two segments to attach Disadvantages: Added cost (approximately $5k as of this video) The rigging person will have phantom hand cramps appear when thinking of your boat
