This is the reality of boat, having to spend a bunch of your time really maintaining a sailboat. It is not always easy, and sometimes can be unexpectedly very gross, but we wouldn’t trade it for anything. Join us this week as we prepare for the boat show, go over all of the projects that we want to do in the next 30 days, and borrow a car from a lovely friend in order to get some errands ran!

In this final stage, the cockpit table expansion is completed successfully with the double pin hinge system functioning smoothly. The expanded table enhances both functionality and space, providing more room for dining or other activities in the cockpit. The final adjustments ensure stability and ease of use, making the table a versatile and efficient addition to the boat's layout. The project concludes with a practical and aesthetically pleasing result that improves onboard living and usability. Feeling Generous?

We have a sailboat and one thing we haven't done yet, is to take her out for a test sail. In this episode we go out on the water for a first test sail. As with a new sailboat there is a lot of things to test, but on major thing for us was the keel we cast ourselves a few months ago. We are Thomas and Petra and late August 2020 we left Sweden to start our first sailing adventure. We sailed for a year to the Caribbean and back again. October 2023 we bought a new sailboat, a Wasa 530 that is need of some renovation. On our channel you will be able to follow our process - from buying a sailboat that has been standing for 10+ years and turning her into a perfect blue water cruiser! Our plan going forward is to post a new video bi-weekly on Saturdays.

Welcome back! This week, we're finally in the marina and getting down to business with a list of boat jobs that never ends. First, we're tackling the anchor chain—switching it around and marking it again for future trips. Next up, we say goodbye to the old, broken vinyl flooring and install brand-new ones. And if that wasn’t enough, we've decided it's time for a fresh start with a brand-new water tank! Boat life is always about maintenance, but we’re excited to share the progress.

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).

#yelken #teknedeyaşam #macera #gezi Uruguay'da son gezimizi de Güney Amerika'nın Miamisi olarak tabir edilen ve lüksün merkezi Punta Del Este'ye yaptık Pek umduğumuzu bulamadık diyebiliriz. Zaten Avrupa'da lüksü gördükten sonra Güney Amerika'daki herhangi bir lüksten etkilenmek çok zor. Sayılı gün çabuk geçer derler ya, Uruguay'daki günlerimiz de göz açıp kapanıncaya kadar geçti. Gözümüz zaten hep hava durumundaydı. Yüksek basıncın ucunun apaz seyrine izin vereceğini görünce hemen yola çıkmaya konsantre olduk. Yol muhteşem geçti. Bu tekne uçuyor. Uruguay'dan Arjantin'e yelken seyri yapan teknelerin videolarında genelde hep motorla gittiklerini görürsünüz. Biz max 12.2 knot hız gördük ve gün batımında kanalda daha rahat bir seyir için ana yelkeni kapatıncaya kadar da ortalama 8.4 knot hızla yol aldık. Kanalda düşündüğümüzden biraz daha fazla trafik vardı. Geceyi de bizim için eğlenceli hale getirdik. Ne kadar üşüdüğümüzü kelimelerle ifade etmek mümkün değil. Videoyu seyredince dişlerimizin tıkırdadığını duyabileceksiniz. 24 saatin sonunda Arjantin Yat Kulübe bağlandık. Buenos Aires'ten ilk izlenimlerimiz çok pozitif. Dev caddeler ama stilini korumayı başarmış klasik binalar.

The hinge system allows for smooth folding and unfolding of the table extension, making it compact when stowed but easily extendable when needed. In this part, you may be aligning and securing the hinge to ensure stability, ensuring the hinges are properly positioned for seamless table expansion. Feeling Generous?

Just 14 hours after crossing the line on the Round Ireland Race, Dazcat 1495 'Hissy Fit' is off cruising with family and friends. Hissy Fit completed the somewhat gruelling 700++ mile offshore in 5th position over the line out of 48 starters, and 2nd in the MOCRA under 50ft class...This video is about Hissy Fit's superb cruising after the race. But just stop and consider for a moment: Hissy Fit, Simon and his friend Dan all needed to be spotlessly presentable, as fresh as possible and in full working order for the arrival of Tracey and Claire to start the cruise. They also had to celebrate with the rest of the crew before they departed. Hissy Fit's durability (no breakages during the race), ease of cleaning and low maintenance are the only things that make this possible. It's just one aspect of the Dazcat magic that you only understand if you understand - we prefer to spend more time sailing and less time fixing and cleaning our boats. Simon, director at the Multihull Centre and build oversight of Dazcats, sails his boat to test, prove and develop the design and build. He also happens to love winning races. But he and his wife Tracey also love exploring the beautiful coastlines and harbours within easy sailing reach of home and with all the home comforts on board. It's been a particularly wet and unpredictable summer but still they managed to find some gorgeous sunshine and stunning sights on the Irish southern coast and the beautiful Isles of Scilly, visiting 12 different harbours and anchorages. Wildlife, scenery and a few tips to remember both on the water and ashore. Thank you to Simon and Tracey for sharing their holiday, and to Hissy Fit for completing around 1600 nautical miles in just one month and bringing everyone home safe and happy.

Unique because it was an old boat but had a new engine and solid hull, however, it sat on the hard for about 14 years. Thus I got a GREAT value.

In this episode, we kick things off at the beautiful Falmouth Yacht Haven, getting our boat prepped and ready for the next adventure. From routine maintenance to a few necessary repairs, we're busy ticking off boat jobs before setting sail again. 🚤🔧 Once everything is shipshape, we move further up the stunning River Fal, finding the perfect anchorage for a peaceful stay amidst nature. Along the way, we soak in the breathtaking views, navigate through serene waters, and enjoy some of the fascinating history that surrounds this area. 🏞️⛵ Why Falmouth? Located on the Cornish coast, Falmouth is a sailor’s dream! It's home to one of the world’s largest natural harbors and is steeped in maritime history. From historic shipyards to its role in WWII, Falmouth has been a key player in British naval tradition. Whether you're visiting for its scenic coastline or the vibrant boating community, Falmouth offers so much to explore. Fun Fact: River Fal 🌿 As we journey up the River Fal, you'll notice its winding, peaceful waters, which are perfect for anchoring in secluded spots. The river itself is steeped in history, with ancient woodlands and hidden creeks that have been used for centuries. 🔔 Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the bell to stay updated on our sailing adventures! #Falmouth #RiverFal #BoatLife #Sailing #YachtHaven #ExploreCornwall #AnchorageAdventures For one time donations. https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/sailingmelody Buy us a coffee or chip in towards restoring and upgrading Ocean Melody https://ko-fi.com/sailingmelody Or to become part of the Sailing Melody supporters family head over to Patreon.com/sailingmelody where for as little as the price of a cup of coffee you can get live updates, direct messaging with us, early episodes and tonnes of extra exclusive content.

Fundraiser: https://chuffed.org/project/keepchuffedsailing Help us replace our rig so we can continue to sail safely and deliver free veterinary care to animals in remote communities. We are fundraising $15,000 USD ($22,000 AUD) to keep Chuffed sailing! Our rig is in poor condition and no longer safe to continue sailing to deliver free veterinary care. We need to replace all of our standing rigging and furling system to keep our clinic going. We also have an accumulation of maintenance items that are overdue, including replacing our shaft seal, engine parts, cutlass bearing, propeller and repairs on the rudder and keel.  Thankfully the hardware for the rigging has been donated by one of our biggest supporters (who prefers to remain anonymous), but there is still significant costs involved in replacing the rigging and doing the other repairs.  Estimated Costs: - Marina fees: $1500 USD - Import fees: $1600 USD - Shipping: $1800 USD - Professional rigger: $8000 USD (includes labor, installation of hardware, repairs on boom, repairs on mast, teaching us how to maintain and install rig) - Boat parts and repairs: $2100 USD = $15,000 USD in total (approx. $22,000 AUD) Our monthly patron supporters have been instrumental in providing funding for our veterinary projects and day-to-day costs of running a sailing veterinary clinic. Last season alone we provided free treatment to over 400 animals, including spay and neuter, vaccinations, tick control products and medical treatments. Our monthly patron funding foes directly towards these important projects, and does not leave us with sufficient funds for large repair projects like this for Chuffed. So, we need your help to keep Chuffed sailing! *Donations are in Australian Dollars - Remember to convert your currency to AUD* Thanks to our supporters who enable us to continue our mission, we couldn't do this without you all. Lots of love, Dr Sheddy and Jim https://www.instagram.com/dr.sheddy_the.sailing.vet/ https://www.facebook.com/vet0tails

Merhaba, Kuzey Atlantik geçişinin uzun bölümünü Flores adasında tamamladık. Şimdi Azor Arşipeli’nde ilerleyeceğiz ve son etap Sao Miguel Portekiz geçişi ile okyanusa veda edeceğiz. Ama şimdi şahane Azor Adalarını gezme ve dinlenme zamanı. Flores adası Okyanus’un yorgunluğunun üzerine adı gibi çiçek gibi geliyor insana. Hem adada denizcilik ile ilgili yerleşik yaşamın denizcilerin hayatını kolaylaştırması inanılmaz iyi geliyor hem de adanın doğası sizi içine öyle bir alıyor ki… baktığınız her yere bir kere daha, iki kere daha bakmak istiyorsunuz. Flores çiçek kız gibi. Güzelliği dillere destan. Biraz uzun bir video oldu ancak hayatlarımıza uzak, ama bir o kadar da güzel adanın her köşesinin görülmesini istedim. Daha okyanusdan gelirken çiçek kokusu karşılıyor sizi. Önce anlamıyorsunuz. Bu koku da nereden geliyor diyorsunuz. Ancak sokak sokak gezerken sanki sizden önce şirinler ordusu parfümle yıkıyor her yeri. İnsan orada olmadan bunun yoğunluğunu ne kadar fark edebilir bilmiyorum. Uzun lafın kısası hadi Flores adasının mis kokulu sokaklarında, yeşil dağlarında, şahane krater göllerinde beraber gezelim. İyi seyirler Avare
