Replacing the wood panels on the salon windows. Again Andy does a staining job without getting video for me. Apparently this was quite the process as he had to go to several stores to get the right color of stain. But in the end, the wood panel looks like the rest and you can't even tell that it was replaced. He did an excellent job color matching. About the project: Wood paneling was purchased in 4 ft x 8 ft sheets of 1/4 in paneling from Lowes. Total Boat Spar varnish was purchased on Amazon.

**Quanto consuma una barca? Consigli e trucchi per ottimizzare tutto nella nautica** In questo video parliamo di **consumi delle barche a motore** e di come ottimizzare navigazione, velocità e manutenzione per risparmiare carburante. Se vuoi capire davvero come migliorare le prestazioni della tua barca e ridurre i costi, questo è il contenuto giusto per te! --- **Quanto consuma una barca? Le basi da conoscere** Se navighi abitualmente, saprai che il tema dei consumi in barca è sempre attuale. Anche se sembra un argomento ripetuto, c’è sempre chi cerca la soluzione migliore per ottimizzare l'uso del carburante. Non esiste una bacchetta magica, ma alcuni concetti chiave sono fondamentali: parliamo principalmente di barche a motore, sia **monocarena che bicarena**, escluse le barche a vela dove il problema dei consumi è meno rilevante. --- **Importanza della velocità di crociera e della minima velocità di planata** Per barche a motore, è essenziale capire la **velocità di crociera** e la **velocità minima di planata**. Quando una barca plana, si solleva dall'acqua riducendo la resistenza e quindi i consumi. - Se la barca inizia a sprofondare a poppa, i consumi aumentano drasticamente. - È controintuitivo, ma spesso accelerare aiuta: portare rapidamente la barca in planata e poi ridurre leggermente i giri motore ottimizza il consumo. Mantenere la barca in planata con il minor sforzo possibile è il trucco migliore per consumare meno carburante. --- **Come gestire il regime del motore per consumare meno** Una volta raggiunta la planata: - Riduci gradualmente il gas senza far sprofondare la barca. - Tieni d’occhio il comportamento della prua: se rimane stabile senza sollevarsi troppo, sei nella posizione ottimale. - Un esempio pratico: se a 3000 giri/min la barca plana bene, ma a 2500 inizia ad abbassarsi, allora è meglio mantenere i 3000. Se invece preferisci navigare rilassato, puoi andare a bassi regimi (ad esempio 1000 giri/min) in modalità dislocante. --- **L'importanza delle condizioni del mare** Il comportamento della barca cambia con il mare: - Onde lunghe permettono una navigazione più morbida. - Onde corte e ravvicinate, come quelle dello stretto di Bonifacio, richiedono aggiustamenti continui. Sempre meglio adattarsi alle condizioni per mantenere la planata più efficiente possibile. --- **Manutenzione e carena pulita: fondamentali per consumare meno** Un altro aspetto troppo spesso trascurato è la **pulizia della carena**: - Una carena sporca, con incrostazioni e alghe, aumenta la resistenza all'acqua come se si guidasse con il freno a mano tirato. - Una buona manutenzione annuale e l’applicazione dell’antivegetativa sono essenziali per migliorare consumi e prestazioni. Anche l’efficienza del motore (carburatori puliti, motore ben tagliandato) incide moltissimo. --- **Gestione del peso a bordo** Attenzione a cosa carichi sulla barca: - Ogni oggetto in più aumenta il peso e quindi i consumi. - Anche pochi chili alla volta, accumulati nel tempo, possono peggiorare le prestazioni in modo significativo. Un corretto bilanciamento dei pesi, specialmente su barche con motore fuoribordo, è cruciale per una navigazione efficiente. --- **Le tecnologie del futuro** Siamo nel 2025 e stanno emergendo soluzioni innovative: - **Motori ibridi** e **motori elettrici** sono già realtà su piccole imbarcazioni. - **Motori a idrogeno** e l'uso di **foils** (ali sott'acqua) stanno rivoluzionando la nautica riducendo drasticamente i consumi. Nei prossimi anni potremmo vedere cambiamenti ancora più radicali! --- **Conclusione** Seguendo questi consigli pratici su velocità, manutenzione, peso e gestione della barca, potrai navigare risparmiando carburante e migliorando l'efficienza generale della tua imbarcazione. **Guarda il video completo per scoprire tutti i dettagli e i trucchi utili!** **Iscriviti al canale per non perderti nessuno dei nostri prossimi video!

#aluminumboat #aluminumsailboat #sailingyacht Join Rob as he goes through every single floorboard on an Ovni 370 to reveal systems, access, storage, and lots of dust. We know that there is little opportunity to open every single floorboard at a boat show. That’s why we took the time to look under the floorboards aboard an Ovni 370 to give you an idea of where and how the systems are integrated. Our first observation was the sheer number of floorboards. It makes sense though – it’s much easier to open and remove smaller panels than to try to lift heavy and awkward panels, especially while underway. Another observation is that you can access every single system aboard. And perhaps the most surprising revelation was the dusty dry bilge! Stick around to the end for a bonus ‘under the beds’!

It’s a huge year for offshore sailing, and arguably the biggest event of the summer is the Rolex Fastnet Race. Within an hour of entries opening the Royal Ocean Racing Club had received a record 435 yacht registrations. The fleet will include weekend racers, all the way up to the mighty Ultim trimarans, and the spectacle of them leaving the Solent is one not to miss. Offshore racing can be dangerous, particularly at night, which Exposure Marine have recognised, and released a ‘Fastnet Race Kit’ of torches specifically designed for crews in races like this, with three essential lighting tools to enhance visibility, safety, and functionality at sea. Today we take a look at the three lights to understand the purpose of each and their advantages. Let’s start with the RAW Pro 2, as this is the light you’ll most likely be using during night operations on board. Preserving your night vision is paramount when sailing offshore, and the key to that is red light. This is due to rhodopsin, which is the light receptor of the rod photoreceptor cells of the retina, being insensitive to longer red wavelength light. A pure red LED helps maintain night vision, while also providing enough light to view charts or operate winches and trim sails on deck. The RAW Pro 2 comes with a headband, adjustable for your head size with velcro, and a rubberised strip on the inside to help it maintain position. The light itself is removable from the headband by taking it out of its clip. Operation is via a single button, with a short press activating the red mode and a longer press switching on its white light. Once the torch is on you can toggle between three different brightness settings in both red and white modes. Charging is via USB, but using its proprietary cable which holds to the light with a magnetic connector. You can’t attach it the wrong way round as the magnet will repel. Runtime from the 850 mAh lithium-ion battery in red mode is 2 hours at high brightness, 8 hours at medium and 40 hours at low. In white mode it’s 1 hour at high brightness, 4 at medium and 20 hours at low. These figures are written on the back of the light as a reminder. Next up is the Crew Carbon, which has the dual role of acting as a torch and a Man Overboard light. The first thing you notice is that it’s really lightweight at 95 grams, thanks to its carbon and marine grade anodised 6063 aluminium construction, and somehow packs in a 2600 mAh battery and a 1000 lumen LED. This light weight means the Crew Carbon floats, an essential feature for its MOB function. Its operation is via a button on the back, with a double press switching it on and then single presses to toggle through the three brightness settings. High gives a run time of 1.5 hours, medium 3 hours and low 6 hours. On high mode it is seriously bright, and you can feel the heat on your fingers if you put them close to the beam. The MOB function automatically activates when it's thrown into water, emitting a flash every second for up to 20 hours. The idea is if you have this on you, it can help a yacht or rescue service locate you, or if someone falls overboard then you throw the torch towards their position where they can grab it if they’re able, or it can highlight where the approximate location is of the person when you circle back to recover them. Charging is via another proprietary USB lead, this time with a more chunky connector. Charge time is 4 hours. Finally we take a look at the Spot Me SOS Strobe, which is a compact, waterproof safety device designed to enhance visibility in search and rescue operations, Again, this is made with marine grade anodised 6063 aluminium and weighs only 33 grams. This isn’t rechargeable like the other two lights, instead having a single CR123 battery and comes with a lanyard and clip, so you can attach it to your clothing. The light is activated by pressing down on the top, at which point it will emit an 80 lumens red SOS strobe for up to six hours. Overall, these are three highly-capable, extremely well-made and engineered devices which will prove invaluable to any offshore racing team. It’s worth having a read of the Exposure Marine Offshore Special Regulations Lighting Guide, designed to help crews ensure they meet OSR compliance.

Sensible design around the cockpit which allows guests to enjoy the sail without having to participate in the sailing. While she is called the 46 LC for Long Cruise this is a refined, fast and elegant yacht that would hold her own in the cruising division of any regatta. If you want a serious cruising yacht with all the modern comforts plus decent fuel capacity giving you options then this yacht is it. But she is also a wonderful sail boat and a pleasure to sail both off the breeze and upwind. The Grand Soleil 46LC is a potential dream boat for many people in my opinion, and in this video Andrew and I discover the sailing abilities along with a deep dive into the interior layout and features of this Italian masterpiece. This won't suit everyone because she's in the higher price and quality range but if you have a big dream then this could very well be it. Enjoy.

Big Week! new Batteries, Boat Name Reveal & Sailing Our Old Monohull! And our 100th episode! It's all starting to come together! We"re a family of seven living aboard our Lagoon 410, preparing to begin our circumnavigation in just a few months. This week was a big one-- we installed our brand-new batteries from Epoch batteries (huge power upgrade!),officially put the name on our vessel (finally!), and even get a chance to go sailing with the amazing family who bought our old monohull. Hoisting those sails again remind us just how close we are to chasing our dream. Every project brings us one step closer to getting back to Panama, heading through the canal, an starting the adventure of a lifetime. Thanks for joining us on the journey-- this is what making dreams happen looks like! Subscribe to follow our family's journey around the world, one project and one sail at a time.

I took a look around the Seldén Mast factory with Richard Thoroughgood from Seldén to find out a bit more about how the carbon tow reels become the masts that we use when out sailing. Richard explains: “Everything we produce in the carbon range starts from a ‘wind file’, which controls reels of pre-impregnated carbon tow. Whether it is a product we have made thousands of - J70s, Musto Skiffs, ILCA composite top masts - or a yacht product (usually custom) we can alter the file to control the bend characteristics of the spar, the weight, or even cross-mix with glass fibre to keep costs under control. Everything is designed in house with our technical team.” Watching the winding process is mesmeric, as the machine travels up and down the rotating mandrel, creating each mast to a specific, pre-programmed design. We get to see the finished product out on the water, especially when a clear finish is applied, but watching the process of their construction happening is fascinating. Richard took me through the many different processes of a carbon spar construction: “We have a rotating aluminium former (mandrel) which is first coated in a releasing agent, and we lay E-glass patches anywhere that we want to cut, drill, or fix to later. “The machine initially lays a 90 degree wrap of carbon tow for integrity, and then uses the wind file to lay further layers at different angles as the designers specify; this could be 45 degrees, 12 degrees etc. Everything is laid under tension, in the same way reinforced concrete is made, so that when it is baked it is as rigid as we need it to be.” The masts are then cured in the autoclave, which is an exceptionally long pressurised oven, and then removed from the mandrel using a hydraulic puller to extract the aluminium tube from the inside of the carbon spar. This is the moment they find out whether the releasing agent has worked! Then the spar is ready for finishing, with either the natural carbon look or painted a colour. All are treated with an ultraviolet inhibitor to prevent UV damage. Carbon head boxes, boom brackets and vang brackets are then moulded on by hand. The team at Seldén can produce some pretty exotic shapes, including custom projects and and specialist reefing booms. Richard talked me through the ‘Y’ boom construction: “The boom is the structural part, wound in the usual way, and then the wings (which enable a good flake when you lower the sail) are non-structural. “The wings are made of foam and glass, built up and shaped, and then everything is faired in and beautifully sprayed in the booth.” So, next time you’re on the water, take a look at who made your mast, boom or spinnaker pole. If any of the spars are carbon and made by Seldén, you now have a better idea of what goes into making them.

In Episode 63 of the Sailing Goat Series, we find ourselves weathered in on Trizonia Island, deep inside the Gulf of Patras, facing some of the wildest wind shifts we’ve ever experienced. We moored with 35 knots of wind, expecting a rough night, but nothing could prepare us for what followed—three straight days of shifting gales. The wind would swing from north to south in minutes, bringing sudden 30–40 knot gusts with each shift. Then came the worst gust yet. A brutal blast of wind ripped our solar panels clean off the rollbar, launching them into the air before they crashed onto the concrete pier and shattered. The screws didn’t loosen—they snapped clean from the force. Thankfully, no one was hurt, and it happened while we were safely docked—not in the middle of an ocean passage, where it could have spelled disaster. 🍃 Moored in Madness: What we thought would be a calm anchorage turned into a lesson in wind management, as conditions flipped violently with no warning, multiple times per day. ⚡ Solar Panel Catastrophe: A rogue gust destroys our solar panels, teaching us the hard way about structural stress and mounting safety. But we’re grateful it happened here—not mid-ocean. 🌬️ Shifting Winds in the Gulf: The Gulf of Patras is notorious for unpredictable winds, but this was something else—catabatic-level blasts from changing directions, testing both our gear and patience. 💡 Silver Lining: We may have lost the panels, but we gained a valuable reminder: test everything before the big passages, and never take sheltered moorings for granted. 💬 Join the Conversation: Ever lost gear to unexpected weather? Got advice for mounting solar panels more securely? Let us know in the comments! 👍 If you enjoy real, raw sailing experiences and the unpredictable nature of life at sea, give this video a thumbs up, share it with fellow cruisers, and subscribe to the Sailing Goat Series for more. 🔗 Connect with Sailing Goat: Instagram: @nobodysride Instagram: @sailing_svgoat 📌 Hashtags: #SailingGoat #TrizoniaIsland #SolarPanelFail #WindStorm #GulfOfPatras #LifeAtSea #CruisingLessons #SailingDisaster ⛵ Join us as we endure brutal gusts, unexpected failures, and come out the other side—smarter, safer, and still smiling.

On Saturday 10th May, Les Sables d'Olonne lit up to celebrate the heroes of the Vendée Globe 2024-2025. An exceptional evening brought together tens of thousands of people, despite the driving rain. From 6.30pm, the legendary channel was alive with the sounds of a huge nautical parade, followed by an awards ceremony, then, just before 11pm, a monumental firework display by Jacques Couturier set the world's most beautiful bay ablaze.

We discovered a bunch of areas for improvement back in 2021 when I first featured the Saxdor 320 GTO on this channel. Since then Saxdor has been busy listening, reading your comments and contacting me and others in the industry for feedback on how they can keep improving their boats. So this video is all about exactly that. What is different from the early 2021 model to todays 2025 model. As usual it's a full test so we also take her for a drive and I'll share any observations at the end. I hope this helps!

The motor boat Grady White Canyon 336 seen at Miami International Boat Show 2025 By Bill Hackett Miami, FL The Boat Show 2025

With Darcy back on the boat we had to get off the wall But we had to go back right after we left. Nothing ever seems to go right at the start of a refit but it all comes together in the end... right... tell me I'm right. ___________________________ Our prior boat - If you are interested in buying our previous boat, Supernova, a beautiful fully kitted out Prout Quasar 50, please send us an email at: sailingsupernova@gmail.com Supernova has tons of upgrades. 4kw solar, 2600 AH of lifpo4 lithium batteries. Full electric galley, watermaker, 2 years new electronics including auto pilot, radar and 16 inch chartplotter. Custom dinghy lift where you can leave the engine on (comes with 10.5 rib with almost new 20hp motor), new mainsail and jib, 14 foot by 7 foot custom hard top, dive compressor, two electric toilets with 2x 100 litre blackwater tank, put in 3 new fridge/freezer units, new prop shafts, 8 new underwater lights. We took the bottom down to gel-coat and put 6 layers of barrier coat on before new bottom paint (that was 3 years ago) and we replaced every through hull. We installed two new prop shafts and aquadrives. It has 4 staterooms, one oversized queen bed, one queen bed and to double beds with 4 heads but we are using 2 heads as just storage. You can live remote on this boat for months and months without needing to resupply (3 fridge/freezers, crazy amount of solar and giant lithium batteries etc). It still needs some cosmetic work inside and a couple of things here and there, but could cross oceans right now as is. We love this boat but we are aware we aren't going to get back anywhere near the money we put into her.
