We never imagined our day would take this turn when we woke up. After navigating out of the lagoon, dodging coral bommies at low tide, things quickly took a turn. A part broke on the daggerboard—ripping currents, tides, and winds causing the chain and boat to act unpredictably, and to top off the day, the bilge alarms went off, and water began flooding the boat. Fortunately, the broken piece on the daggerboard was fixable. With the tide ripping, we decided to pull anchor, and the 2x 500gallon bilge pumps were able to keep up with the ingress of water while Sam tackled and fixed the issue. Despite the chaos, we made great timing, had a fantastic sail, and, thankfully, all the excitement was fixable! ________________ Ahoy!

**Beneteau Island Cruising Boat: L'innovativa barca per una navigazione senza limiti** Nel mio nuovo video ti porto a bordo della rivoluzionaria **Island Cruising Boat** di Beneteau, un progetto unico a metà strada tra un monoscafo e un catamarano. Pensata per lunghi soggiorni in mare, questa barca da 14 metri per 4,5 metri è stata sviluppata in collaborazione con J&J Design per soddisfare le vere esigenze dei diportisti. **Beneteau e l'analisi delle abitudini dei diportisti** Basandosi sui dati raccolti dal sistema Seanapps installato a bordo delle sue imbarcazioni, Beneteau ha creato una barca che risponde alle abitudini più comuni dei navigatori: ancoraggio prolungato, navigazioni brevi e lente, e una forte attenzione al comfort e alla sostenibilità. **Caratteristiche principali** - **Struttura innovativa:** Monoscafo a prua, doppio scafo da metà barca come un catamarano, per garantire stabilità e spazio. - **Propulsione elettrica:** Due motori POD da 12 kW e batterie da 50 kW per navigare in silenzio e nel rispetto dell’ambiente. - **Pannelli solari:** Un hardtop ricoperto di fotovoltaico che copre fino al 50% del fabbisogno energetico. **Design per il massimo relax** La parte centrale e poppiera è un vero e proprio spazio da vivere: un grande tavolo, una cucina-bar e divani comodi, il tutto protetto dal hardtop ma facilmente trasformabile in un’area aperta con vista sul mare. Le murate laterali apribili e la piattaforma di poppa abbassabile offrono un contatto diretto con l’acqua, trasformando l’esperienza a bordo. **Sarà questa la barca del futuro?** Pensata inizialmente per il mercato del charter, questa soluzione potrebbe conquistare anche gli appassionati di crociere lente e confortevoli. Ti invito a scoprire nel video tutti i dettagli e a lasciarmi il tuo parere nei commenti! 👉 **Iscriviti al canale per non perdere i prossimi video dedicati alle novità del mondo Beneteau e non solo!** 📌 Vienimi a trovare presso il cantiere BARCHE BELLANDI a Via Vò s/n 25015 Desenzano del Garda (BS) 🛥 Sei un appassionato del mondo della nautica?

In this series of videos we explore the Wiszniewski Yachts W-43 in detail. This version was powered by the triple 300hp V8's and the standard version is optioned with the dual 400Hp V10. This is an interesting concept that left me with the impression that she is somewhere between an adventure boat hull and a luxury med style day boat. She will entertain 10+ people, lunch for 4-6 people no worries and overnight in comfort for 2. I imagine if you have been introduced to the world of adventure boats but felt limited by the amount of space you have available onboard and like the idea of spending more time aboard your boat but still having access to very respectable cruising speeds and a real step up in onboard comforts then this could be a great boat for you.

Kitesailing a 300lb+ RIB Highfield 310 dinghy at 11mph/9.6knots is fun and impressive! What's more, is that it can go upwind, and all while carrying a 15hp Yamaha Enduro on the back!

THE GOLD STANDARD IN WEEKENDERS The Antares 9 is a sleek modern boat reimagined with innovations and enhancements taken from larger models. Built for fun-filled weekends on the water, this new version offers even more ways to enjoy the sea. It is easier to move around and handle, and even better in good company whether you’re anchored or cruising. EXTERIOR DESIGN The new Antares 9 has an elegant profile and boasts sleek, powerful lines, enhanced by a silver rubbing strake and long hull windows. The wheelhouse arch, a real hallmark of the line, forms a slightly broken curve. It joins the extensive coachroof which protects the generously sized aft cockpit (1.7 m by 2.4 m). By adding an extra seat, the L-shaped bench seat can be converted into a U-shaped saloon area, the ideal layout for a large number of guests. This modular saloon can be easily converted into a sunbathing area when you want to relax and sunbathe. INTERIOR DESIGN The new Antares 9 is perfectly suited to cruising with family or friends, offering its passengers a remarkable quality of life on board. Surrounded by large windows, the interior lounge is bathed in light. The modern galley is fitted with an 80-litre fridge, two electric rings or hobs, an optional microwave oven and plenty of storage space. The forward owner’s cabin promises cosy nights at sea. With its queen-size bed, lacquered furniture, mood lighting, padded bed head, and spacious hanging locker, it delivers an exceptional level of comfort and elegance rarely found on boats this size. The equally comfortable guest cabin can accommodate two passengers, while the saloon can be converted to provide two additional berths. THE PLEASURE OF RELAXED SAILING The new Antares 9 is a delicate balance between performance and safety, and exterior space and interior volume. Every detail has been designed to make movement easier and provide seamless access to the sea, making trips to sea even more relaxing and enjoyable. The new Antares 9 is all about family cruising and water sports with friends, embodying versatility, comfort, and elegance. READ MORE https://www.bateswharf.co.uk/news/new-model-beneteau-antares-9/
