What does it actually take to build a catamaran that's safe, livable, and fast — without compromising any of the three? https://balancecatamarans.com/built-to-last-the-engineering-philosophy-behind-our-catamarans/ Phil Berman & Dean Paarman sit to to break down the engineering philosophy behind Balance Catamarans, from Du Toit Yacht Design's role in laminate schedules and structural integrity, to why major components are built to a 2:1 safety factor — double the calculated load. We also get into the real tradeoffs between weight, durability, and comfort: why glass wins over Lexan, why storage volume matters on a cruising cat, and what CE Category A offshore certification actually means for a boat's resale value and safety. Plus — the escape hatch debate, why beam-to-length ratio determines how well your cat sails in light air, and the reefing guidelines that keep you from flying a hull. 00:00 Engineering and Certification 01:24 Safety Factors and Weight 02:58 Materials and Livability Tradeoffs 04:01 Escape Hatches Debate 05:15 CE vs US Standards 05:51 Beam Width and Stability 07:03 Reefing and No Hull Flying 07:40 Wrap Up and Guidelines Link: https://balancecatamarans.com/design-for-safety/ Link: https://balancecatamarans.com/built-to-last-the-engineering-philosophy-behind-our-catamarans/ Catamaran Conversations with Patrick Shaughnessy: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL_ZKlaZSmtsRpY6CxjveL9BKi5k3mQwkx

An original choreography created to celebrate the christening of the EIGHTY 3 during the Exclusive Days, blending elegance, energy, and emotion. Relive this unique moment where every movement pays tribute to the Lagoon spirit. _______________________________________________________ CATAMARAN INNOVATORS SINCE 1984 Lagoon was formed in pursuit of connection – with ourselves, our loved ones and the world around us. By bringing the human experience to the 7 seas, we’ve been able to unleash an unbridled sense of curiosity and instinctual need for quality since 1984. Something we wouldn’t have accomplished without a collective passion for spectacular destinations and even better journeys getting there. As confirmed sailors, we all know that our boats have to be fast, comfortable and safe: seaworthy. We build them based on our love of the sea and the constant aim of good-quality work. We design them as if we were the future owners. As shipbuilders and sailors, it is part of our logic.

Boat building is more than just construction, it’s a craft shaped by time, precision, and tradition. In this film, we step inside the world of traditional wooden boat building, where every detail is done by hand and every technique has been passed down through generations. From shaping timber to assembling each component, this process reflects a level of skill that is becoming increasingly rare. Today, this craft is at risk of disappearing. With fewer people learning the trade and modern methods taking over, the future of traditional boat building is uncertain. Watch to find out why preserving this knowledge matters.

To learn more about Keane Insurance and to seek your bespoke boat policy check them out here - https://keanespecialty.com/get-a-quote?pid=YSN When we first begun this project, of re-powering Nandji 2 many big decisions had to be made. The biggest of them all of course is — what engine do we trust for the next 10 years of sailing? For us, it was simple. We never like to do jobs half arsed, so lets Go all in.The Yanmar 4JH110, more power, better efficiency, and the kind of reliability you want when its 50 knots and your a lee to shore. But before we could install our new Yanmar… the engine room needed a complete refit. The old seized engine had to come out but blocking its removal… was our generator. An ageing Cummins Onan 6.5kW generator and whilst it is Still running, still useful… that is debateable . So the question is, Should it stay? Or is it time to let it go? Should we put the generator back in? Because the real question is do you actually need a generator on a cruising boat? And more importantly… do we?

As the authorized partner for Privilège Marine in the United States, The Multihull Company is proud to present Part 2 of our three-part sailing documentary featuring the brand-new Privilège Signature 510, Sea Warden. After weeks of anticipation in Les Sables-d’Olonne, France, the weather window finally opens. The crew sets sail for a true baptism by fire: the notorious Bay of Biscay. Known for its powerful Atlantic swells and rapidly shifting conditions, this stretch of water is the ultimate first test for any offshore voyager—and the perfect stage to showcase the blue-water pedigree of a Privilège. Experience the journey as Sea Warden tackles the open ocean, eventually finding refuge along the Portuguese coast. We arrive in the historic harbor of Porto just as a spectacular sunset paints the sky, marking the end of a successful first leg. Stay tuned for Part 3: The journey continues from Porto to Lanzarote, where the crew faces the largest waves of the entire passage! Looking for your own blue-water masterpiece?

“To give back while traveling… that changed everything.” 💙 Hearing our guests reflect on these moments says it all — connecting with local communities, supporting small initiatives, and becoming part of something beyond the journey itself. Because the most meaningful travel doesn’t just show you new places… it allows you to leave something behind. This is what Sailing for Good is all about. #oceanview #Indonesia #sailingadventure #wonderfulindonesia #liveaboard #sailing #RajaAmpat #Komodo #Flores #SpiceIslands #SailingForGood #TravelWithPurpose #GiveBackTravel #CommunityImpact #MeaningfulTravel #ResponsibleTravel #SeaTrek #IndonesiaStories #TravelDeeper #SustainableTravel 👍 If you found this video interesting, don't forget to LIKE and SUBSCRIBE for more adventure in Indonesia through Indonesian eyes!

Krakatinni is a 1998 Catalina 400, listed exclusively with YOTI on Sydney Harbour. https://www.yoti.com.au/listing/catalina-400-krakatinni This is a two-cabin, two-head, twin-wheel 40-footer from one of the most respected names in production cruising yachts. Catalina has long been known for building solid, practical boats designed for comfortable sailing and longevity. The standout feature of this 2-cabin layout is the full-beam aft owner’s cabin. It offers a huge semi-island berth, seating to port and starboard, and private access to the larger of the two heads. It really is on another level than what is usually found on 40-foot boats. In the salon, there is no shortage of room. A large U-shaped sofa and table occupy the STB side, easily seating up to eight. The table also lowers to create an additional double berth for guests. The wraparound galley is well laid out, offering ample bench space, refrigeration, deep sinks, and a three-burner stove with oven. Long skylights and numerous hatches bring in plenty of natural light and ventilation, while Catalina’s traditional timber joinery gives the interior a warm, solid feel. Forward is a second private cabin with a V-berth and its own ensuite. The cockpit design was ahead of its time, with twin wheels and a walk-through transom that creates a clear path from the swim platform to the companionway. Deck hardware is robust and sensibly arranged, consistent with Catalina’s reputation for durable cruising setups. Protection from the elements is provided by a forward dodger and aft bimini over the helm positions. Krakatinni is powered by a 42HP shaft-drive Westerbeke engine that has been regularly serviced. She was lifted in October 2025 for antifouling and a full polish. The gas system was recently tested, updated, and certified. A well-proven cruising yacht with a straightforward and comfortable layout, Krakatinni is ready for new adventures and would suit buyers looking to explore local waters or enjoy a capable liveaboard on Sydney Harbour. Contact Luke Holliday for further details and to arrange an inspection.

‘First Priority’ is a 2004 Beneteau First 44.7, listed exclusively for sale with YOTI on Sydney Harbour. https://www.yoti.com.au/listing/beneteau-first-44-7-first-priority Designed by Bruce Farr, the Beneteau First 44.7 is a highly regarded cruiser/racer, equally at home on the racecourse or cruising the coast in comfort. Known for its balanced performance and practical layout, the First 44.7 remains a popular choice for sailors who want versatility without compromise. First Priority presents as a well-prepared example, with significant work completed over the past two years and recent upgrades to ensure she’s ready for her next owner. • New skin fittings, all new seacocks and hoses • New cabin top hatches, cut & polish, gelcoat repairs, new interior taps • Raymarine electronics upgrade including Axiom2 Pro 9S chart plotter, EV-400 autopilot, 3 x i70s multifunction displays and 2 x Alpha 9 performance displays on mast bracket • Electrical upgrades including new batteries, lighting, toilets, pumps, macerator, shower sumps and water sensors • Partially rebuilt engine (2023) • New Echo Marine mattresses and topper (unused) • New anchor winch, switching and chain (unused) • New Eno two-burner gas stove and oven (unused) This is the desirable three-cabin layout, offering two aft double cabins serviced by a shared head, and a generous forward owner’s cabin with private ensuite. The saloon features a comfortable U-shaped dinette, while the L-shaped galley is well equipped with a top-opening fridge, twin stainless steel sinks and ample storage. On deck, she is set up for easy cruising with a North Sails fully battened Dacron mainsail with boom bag and lazy jacks, and a North Sails genoa on a Profurl furler. A Bimini and dodger with infill provide protection from the elements, while a full suite of Raymarine instruments, including autopilot, supports short-handed sailing. Her dyform standing rigging was replaced in 2019, and a new Profurl C430 furler was installed. First Priority will suit buyers seeking a straightforward, comfortable cruiser that still delivers strong sailing performance—whether around the racecourse or simply getting from point A to B.

Painting the boat black... We Found Squid Paradise! 🦑✨ Sometimes, you drop anchor in a place so special it earns a new name on the charts. Welcome to "Squid Paradise." Our night started with a simple squid jig and ended with the entire boat, even our bed, covered in ink. In this episode, we experience the frantic fun of catching our own dinner right off the back of the boat, proving that the Solomon Islands always provide if you know where to look. But it’s not all ink and action. Between the hunts, we take a moment to breathe. With the help of the drone and our kayaks, we explore the mirror-still waters of the lagoon, sharing poetry and reflections on what it means to truly inhabit a space. Poppy shares a sunset serenade and a reminder that in a world of constant movement, there is immense power in simply "being." Of course, Mother Nature has the final word. We wrap up the episode with a classic lesson in Solomon Islands sailing: a frustrating, beautiful dance of lifting the sails, losing the wind, and doing it all over again.

We’ve officially left paradise behind and set our sights on Ambon… but this leg of the journey isn’t exactly smooth sailing. With food supplies running low and the wind refusing to cooperate, things are starting to get a little tense onboard. We make a quick stop at the stunning Gag Island — crystal clear water, untouched beauty… the kind of place you don’t want to leave. But while the views are incredible, there’s something onboard that definitely isn’t. A mystery smell has been haunting Dan for days… and when we finally track it down, let’s just say the freezer had a surprise waiting for us 🤢 After dealing with that disaster, we push on — thinking the worst is behind us. We’re wrong. What follows is an unexpected night sail, navigating in the dark and dropping anchor between reefs with very little margin for error. One small mistake out here can turn serious, fast. This is one of those legs that reminds us — life at sea isn’t always picture perfect. 🎥 In this episode: • Leaving Wayag and the reality of long passages • Running low on food (again…) • Exploring beautiful Gag Island • The mystery freezer disaster revealed • A tense and unexpected night sail • Anchoring between reefs in the dark If you enjoy raw, real sailing adventures — this one’s for you. 👍 Don’t forget to like & subscribe to follow the journey!

Turneffe makes for an ideal location to host our Belize Freediving Workshop and Snorkeling tour. Aside from the beautiful reefs and clear waters, there are a number of protected areas to explore with varying depth levels. Throughout the course of this freediving workshop, there will be lectures, training sessions in the resort's pool, and in-water practical sessions with our Freediving Instructor Emma, all of which will give you time and opportunity to improve your skills. We'll be based at Turneffe Island Resort for the duration of the tour. We'll be accompanied by a freediving expert (Emma Farrell) and an assistant, who both bring along a wealth of experience. All this is, of course, combined with plenty of time for snorkeling over the reefs at your leisure.

Bunaken National Park and Bangka Island, on the north coast of Sulawesi in Indonesia, provide an ideal setting for this exciting freediving workshop and snorkel safari. Aside from the beautiful reefs, clear waters, and abundant marine life, there are a number of protected areas to explore at varying depths. Both boutique island resorts we’ll be staying at are also well-equipped to host us as we advance our freediving. Join freediving expert Emma Farrell and her assistant for an immersive workshop designed to enhance your snorkeling skills through a combination of talks, masterclasses, and in-water practical sessions. With a focus on wellness, you can take part in morning Breathing Optimization sessions and evening Yoga Nidra, both of which will enrich your underwater experiences. You’ll progress at your own pace and within your comfort zone, with safety, relaxation, and enjoyment always at the forefront. The workshop begins at the award-winning Siladen Resort, located just north of Sulawesi. This venue offers everything needed for training, including a pool for static breath-hold practice and a sea-view yoga shala that doubles as a classroom and relaxation space. From Siladen, you’ll have easy access to the stunning reefs and training sites within Bunaken National Park. Our second stop will be Coral Eye, the newly renovated sister resort of Siladen Resort, located on Bangka Island. With your newly honed freediving abilities, you’ll be able to dive down and swim among the fish, exploring the stunning reefs from a whole new perspective. Like Siladen, Coral Eye also offers a pool for additional training sessions and relaxation, along with ample space for yoga and Breathing Optimization sessions.
