I've started the 2nd prototype wheelhouse extension (and dismantled the first). We had proved the concept but wanted the central fixed part a little narrower. The goals are a full cockpit enclosure AND moving the mainsheet from the top of the aft cabin to above the wheelhouse (better safety and a better sheeting angle). We also refitted the timber trim on the port side complete with the front zip for the first removable window section. 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.page/ 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).

Croats love it when visitors make the effort to learn their language. Plus, it doesn’t hurt to say you can speak two languages! Before we get started, let it be known that Croatian is a really tough language to learn – everyone will tell you it’s a complicated language to master, given that accents and feminine/masculine nouns are involved. But, like anything that you set your mind to, when you achieve it, it feels good! Here are some basic phrases to get you started on your journey to mastering the Croatian language: English: Hello Croatian: Bok Sounds Like: Bohk English: How are you? Croatian: Kako ste? Sounds Like: kah-koh steh? English: Do you speak English? Croatian: Govorite li engleski? Sounds Like: goh-voh-ree-teh lee en-glees-kee English: Please Croatian: Molim Sounds Like: moh-leem English: A beer/coffee/tea, please Croatian: Pivo/kavu/čaj, molim Sounds Like: PEE-voh/KAH-voo/CH-ay MOH-leem If you're more of a visual learner, check out our blog with more information on basic Croatian phrases to get you started: https://www.sail-croatia.com/set-sail/resource/basic-croatian-phrases
