Why does navigation start at the equator? 🌍⚓ If you’re new to sailing, navigation can feel confusing — especially latitude and longitude. In this short sailing lesson, we explain why every position on Earth is measured from this single reference line. This is a beginner-friendly explanation designed to be easy to remember and simple to understand — perfect if you’re learning to read charts, understand GPS positions, or just starting your sailing journey. 👉 Watch the full video for a deeper breakdown and more beginner sailing tips. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8m_ivNgwExI&list=PLQOqsyzQgrHPTNxLsHmvyKZl4iNs7mYwZ&index=8 #SailingForBeginners #SailingNavigation #LearnToSail #Latitude #Equator #BeginnerSailor #SailingBasics #SailingEducation #NauticalKnowledge

The Privilege Brand needs no introduction as being one of the most desirable catamarans on the planet. We are lucky enough to have a flock of them on our listings including this 2005 awesomely equipped, magnificent example of a Privilege 585 Easy Cruise "Owners Version". Rarely available in this guise based in mainland Spain, close to Murcia & Alicante Airports and well worth a look at, if you are in the market for a luxury catamaran in this class. Impeccably maintained and privately owned, by a loving owner, never chartered........ this is one beautiful catamaran. VAT PAID!

What do you actually do 100 miles from land with zero connection? 🌊⚓ After 4 months completely off-grid in PNG, we started our crossing. Ocean passages are a forced meditation—no internet, no distractions, just the horizon. But the silence didn't last. In the main episode, the peace is shattered. As we finally cross into the Solomon Islands, our sail RIPS, leaving us vulnerable in the open sea. This is the raw, unpolished reality of boat life.

From last winter when we prepered for the winter, this year is another story. When we bought the boat, it came with some nice covers for all the hatches. We’ve used them a lot, and it’s a good thing this is the last winter we’ll need them, because they’re just about worn out 🤗🌍⛵️ #shortoftheday #sailing #sailboat #winter #diy
