What do you learn after four seasons sailing the Mediterranean? From Med mooring and overnight passages to changing weather and yacht maintenance, Mike and Linda share the practical sailing lessons that have transformed the way they cruise aboard their Lagoon 46. When they first started, many of the things they now do regularly felt intimidating. Over time, they've pushed themselves outside their comfort zone, developed new skills and discovered just how much more you can get from your yacht when you're willing to keep learning. In this episode, Mike and Linda share their best catamaran sailing tips and lessons from four seasons of Mediterranean cruising, including: ✓ Why they chose the Lagoon 46 after previously owning a Lagoon 380 ✓ Why they felt 46 feet was the right size to handle as a couple ✓ What they love about sailing their Lagoon 46 ✓ How they learned to Med moor with confidence ✓ Why the right length of floating line matters ✓ The Mediterranean mooring advice they learned from a Greek harbour master ✓ Why you shouldn't let other boats rush your manoeuvre ✓ Their tips for overnight sailing and night passages ✓ Why they reef before sunset ✓ How moonlight can make an overnight passage more comfortable ✓ How they monitor changing Mediterranean weather ✓ Why they compare multiple sailing weather forecasts ✓ What they've learned about yacht maintenance ✓ How cruising has given them the confidence to tackle more maintenance themselves Mediterranean Mooring Lessons Med mooring was one of the more confronting skills Mike and Linda had to master while cruising Greece, Croatia and Turkey. After initially buying 50-metre lines, they discovered that longer floating lines gave them far more flexibility. They also learned the importance of properly setting the anchor, checking the tension once the boat has settled and, above all, refusing to be rushed. As they've learned while sailing in Greece, sometimes the best approach is simply "slowly, slowly." Overnight Sailing & Mediterranean Weather Overnight passages brought another set of lessons. When possible, Mike and Linda prefer to sail overnight when there is some moonlight and put a reef in before sundown for additional peace of mind. Weather monitoring has also become an important part of their daily cruising routine. Rather than relying on one forecast, they compare several sources, including PredictWind and Windy, to help make informed decisions before setting off. Learning as You Cruise Perhaps their biggest lesson is that you don't need to know everything before you start. From learning to Med moor to servicing the generator and replacing its water pump, their confidence has developed through experience. Boats are constantly working, things wear out and every season brings another opportunity to learn something new. If you're planning on sailing the Mediterranean, cruising on a catamaran or considering a Lagoon 46, this episode is packed with real-world advice from owners who've spent four seasons learning along the way. Subscribe for more from Mike and Linda as they share their experiences cruising the Mediterranean aboard their Lagoon 46.

# We Quit Our Jobs! Retiring Early to Live on a Sailboat What happens when you decide **you don't want to work until traditional retirement age?** We're taking a different path—fixing up a sailboat, working just enough to fund the journey, and planning for an early retirement living off-grid on the water. Our goal is simple: **retire early, leave the grind behind, and sail.** We're preparing our sailboat for a new life of cruising, travel, solar power, marine electrical projects, off-grid living, great food, beautiful sunsets, and exploring the islands. But getting there isn't as easy as it looks. We're still working gigs to pay for boat projects, upgrading the electrical system, adding solar power, fixing what needs fixing, and figuring out how to make the numbers work. This is the real journey of **buying a sailboat, fixing it up, planning an early retirement, and eventually sailing away from the traditional 9-to-5 lifestyle.** If you've ever dreamed about: ⛵ Retiring early 🌴 Living on a sailboat ☀️ Living off-grid 🔋 Solar power and lithium batteries 🔧 Marine electrical and boat projects 🏝️ Sailing the islands 🚐 RV and camper van life 🌎 Traveling full-time 🔥 Alternative lifestyles 💰 Escaping the traditional 9-to-5 🌅 Waking up somewhere beautiful …then you're in the right place. We're documenting the good, the bad, the expensive boat projects, the sailing adventures, the mistakes, the sunsets, the food, and everything in between. **The goal isn't to work forever. The goal is to build a life we actually want to live.** Follow along as we turn a sailboat into our path toward **early retirement, off-grid living and sailing the islands.** #Sailing #RetireEarly #SailboatLife #OffGridLiving #EarlyRetirement #Liveaboard #SailingLife #SolarPower

Whether you've dreamed about sailing your whole life or you're stepping aboard for the very first time, this series was built for you. Over the next 15 lessons, we're going to take the mystery out of sailing by teaching the foundational skills every sailor needs—from understanding the wind and the parts of a boat to steering, trimming sails, docking, and staying safe on the water. We've spent years helping thousands of new sailors build real confidence on the water. We've seen what works, where beginners struggle, and how to explain sailing in a way that's practical, approachable, and easy to remember. That's exactly why we created this series. No assumptions that you already know the basics. Just clear, step-by-step instruction designed to help you actually become a sailor. Each lesson builds on the last, so by the end of the series you'll understand not just what to do, but why you're doing it—giving you the confidence to step aboard and keep learning every time you sail. So grab a notebook, follow along with each session, and if you're ready to make your sailing dreams a reality, let's get started with an Introduction.

A hurricane does not steer itself; larger wind patterns high above it, called steering currents, carry it like a cork in a river. When those currents weaken, the storm can stall or wander, making its path dangerously unpredictable. Full Video: https://youtu.be/p0Oc8njxsxk 📗 Get My Book: https://bethecaptain.com

Alongside logging all those ocean miles, I’ve recently embarked on a new adventure on the water: Loveworkx The Podcast! Navigating love, life and long passages. As a solo sailor on my 27-foot Grinde, I keep crossing paths with the most extraordinary people. Their stories of courage, choices, and the raw reality of life at sea and how that transforms you are simply too valuable not to share.  To capture that inspiration and unpack how we navigate love and life on long passages, I decided to step behind the microphone and record podcasts. In the first few episodes, I’m taking you along in conversations with incredible guests I've met along the way. This is a short from my conversation with Maz: who I met on Cocos keeling Islands, she embarked on a Tallship with no sailing experience at all. Finds herself in 47 knots of wind for two days and reflects on my solo sailing journey from that perspective. And so many more nice interviews to come. I will start editing and publishing the Podcast soon.  💙 Love my videos?

The VX Air is a high performance two-person, single-trapeze dinghy designed by Brian Bennett, Ross Weene, and Mackay Boats. The hull is 4.78 metres long, that’s 15 foot 8 inches, and has a beam of 1.74 metres, or 5 foot 9 inches. The main sail is just over 10 metres squared, with a 4.61 metres squared jib and a 15.75 metres squared asymmetric spinnaker, which provides exceptional lift downwind. The asymmetric hoist system is via a soft chute, which exits around 30 centimetres from the bow and runs all the way back to the central controls, allowing a wet sail to drain. The main is sheeted off the boom and taken by the crew upwind and the helm downwind, while the jib is a self-tacker a track, making manoeuvres simplicity itself. The spars and asymmetric pole are carbon, with a mast height of 6.75 metres, while the foils consist of a daggerboard with a 1.11 metre draft and a kick-up rudder, combined with a carbon one-piece rudder stock and tiller. The boat is incredibly stable upwind, and the pitching was minimal sailing on Portland Harbour in a short chop and around 12-16 knots of wind, making for an easy ride for the crew on the trapeze. With the efficient hull form it was only when you looked at the pace of the chase RIB we had out that you realised just how quickly we were travelling. The ideal crew weight is between 125 and 150 kilograms, but Sam Pascoe and I had a good 20 kilos over this and the boat in no way felt sluggish or weighed down, as you can see, so I would put the weight range at wider than this suggestion. With the centrally led control lines the rig felt easy to depower, and downwind if you’re light you can simply go a little deeper. Where does the VX Air sit in amongst the range of dinghies already on the market? I think it’ll appeal to those who sail high-performance dinghies but want something with lighter sheet loads and a simple deck layout, while it will also appeal to youth sailors who are coming out of boats like the 29er and want to sail fast, but aren’t going into an Olympic class like the 49er or 49er FX. The VX Air certainly makes high-performance dinghy sailing more accessible, due to its stability. I remember many years ago being blown away by the VX One’s speed when I sailed it for a day at Cowes Week, and the Air has that same vibe, just without the keel and in a much smaller package. It’s the kind of boat I’d love to sail in a winter series event, as you’d be quick round the course and I had the feeling that I’d really have to mess up to capsize, which during the colder months when I’m out on the water less is a big plus.

Are catamarans actually worth the money, or have cruising sailors convinced themselves they need a floating luxury condo? In this Hot Take Tuesday, we’re looking at the real cost of cruising catamarans, whether most sailors actually need one, and why a much cheaper monohull can often do the exact same job. But there’s another side to it. For families living aboard, Caribbean cruisers, shallow-water sailors, and people who simply want more space and stability, a sailing catamaran can be exactly the right tool. And performance cats like Outremer prove that catamarans aren’t just floating apartments either. So are cats overpriced, unnecessary toys... or some of the best cruising boats ever built? #Sailing #Catamaran #Sailboat #Cruising #Liveaboard #CatamaranSailing #SailingLife #BoatLife #CruisingSailboat #LadyKSailing #HotTakeTuesday Lady K Swag!!!

We’ve reached a major milestone as the very first deck of the brand new Outremer 57 is out of the mould. In the next couple of weeks the engines will be built in and then deck and hulls will be united forever.

In this week's episode, I just tool around the lake and briefly go hove-to in a beautiful cove to take a little break. The mountain winds are light and very shifty. As the winds pick up, I head out to the main part of the lake. I had no plan, no agenda, and no goals for the day. I just spent the day enjoying wherever the wind took me.

The final day of the regatta was sailed in modest breezes, flat seas and bright blue skies.

‘Crackerjack’ is a Beneteau First 36.7 listed exclusively for sale with YOTI on Pittwater. Designed by the Farr yacht design team, the Beneteau First 36.7 (2002) has earned a reputation as one of the finest cruiser-racers of its generation. Fast, well-balanced and rewarding to sail, it delivers genuine performance without compromising the comfort and accommodation needed for extended cruising. This yacht is equally suited to cruising up the coast as it would be racing around the cans. A versatile design that gets you genuinely excited to get the sails out and have some fun, while at the same time when you have dropped them equally as comfortable spending the night on a mooring afterwards while the day starts to slow down. It really is set up for both with 2 separate sets of sails, one set for cruising that includes a furling headsail making life easy while still having a competitive sailing wardrobe. Owned by an experienced sailor with a lot of miles under his belt. He has taken the time to care for the boat during over 10 years of ownership. Recently going through its annual maintenance including an antifoul, propspeed, topside polish, engine service and saildrive service all done towards the end of April 2026. She is powered by a 29HP volvo diesel engine with approximately 950 hours on the clock. This is the 3 cabin 1 head layout. Beneteau do a great job of the interior finishes on these boats and the layout makes sense. There's a fully enclosed washroom with toilet, hot & cold shower and a wash basin plus an external shower at the stern, ideal for a rinse off after a swim. Large saloon dining table that folds down and a U shaped galley making it convenient to cook or make a cup of tea while on passage if you are in cruising mode. Crackerjack has enjoyed an easy life on Pittwater, primarily being sailed in Monday twilight races as well as other light cruising and racing in Pittwater. A joy to sail, the Beneteau First 36.7 strikes an excellent balance between performance and practicality. She is a manageable size for a couple, rewarding under sail while still offering comfortable accommodation below for weekends away or extended coastal cruising. Whether you're looking to enjoy competitive club racing or relaxed cruising with family and friends, Crackerjack is a versatile yacht that delivers the best of both worlds. If you want some more information on this yacht, please get in touch and I will be happy to provide a full inventory.

Rundreise Tasmanien inklusive Kosten Wer die Südinsel Neuseelands mag, wird Tasmanien lieben! Vieles erinnert an die Nachbarinsel: Baumfarne, weiße Strände und knorrige Küstenwälder mit vom Wind gebeugten Bäumen. Tasmanien wird oft als die „wildere kleine Schwester“ der neuseeländischen Südinsel beschrieben. Kaum zu glauben, der Westen Tasmaniens ist noch weniger besiedelt als das undurchdringliche Fjordland und die Catlins auf der Südinsel. Das Wetter 31 Tage Tasmanien und wir haben es geschafft, dem Wetter aus dem Weg zu gehen. Normalerweise läuft das anders: Du kommst an die Westküste – Regen. Du willst wandern – Regen. Du willst spektakuläre Aussichten sehen – heute geschlossen wegen Nebel. Und dann kommen wir: ein verregneter Nachmittag, ein verregneter Vormittag und der nasse Abschlusstag, der sowieso nicht mehr zählt. Ich könnte behaupten, das sei gute Planung gewesen. ;-) Richtige Reisezeit, richtige Route. Nein, es war pures Glück, gegen jede Statistik. Wir lieben Australien und Tasmanien hat uns scheinbar auch sehr gern. Landschaft und Tiere Tasmanien fehlen die schneebedeckten Alpen. Da hat Neuseeland die Nase vorn. Das macht Tasmanien mit seiner Tierdichte wieder weg. Der „Zoo ohne Zäune“ gegen Neuseeland, das Vogelparadies. Wobei es nur wenig Menschen geben dürfte, die jemals einen Kiwi zu Gesicht bekommen haben. Unsere Wunschliste an Tier-Sichtungen darf als abgearbeitet gelten. Wombats, Pinguine, Nasenigel und unzählige Kängurus in verschiedenen Größen. Vom Bus aus in Cradle Mountain konnten wir sogar eine ‚Tiger Snake‘ erhaschen. Der Besuch in der Auffangstation für den Tasmanischen Teufel war ein Highlight. Ihr Verhalten hat tatsächlich etwas Teuflisches. Die süßen roten Ohren sind nur zum Antäuschen. Der Camper Ich kann unseren Wagen gar nicht genug loben. Perfekt für zwei Erwachsene. Obwohl einer von uns Überlänge hat. Durch die integrierte Toilette gilt er als ‚self containted‘, man darf also überall damit campen. Die Toilette haben wir tatsächlich nicht benutzt. Wir haben darauf geachtet, dass alle Stellplätze über eine Toilette verfügen. Hätten wir die Gelegenheit, noch einmal um das große Australien zu fahren, wäre das unsere Wahl. Die Kabine mit dem Tisch und Sitzbänken plus Bett bietet einen idealen Rückzugsort bei schlechtem Wetter. Ein etwas anderer Schnack als das Dachzelt. Unsere Shell ist von ‚Pinguin‘, ein tasmanischer Hersteller. Nicht der teuerste, der solche Aufbauten herstellt. Camper-Shells von anderen Anbietern gibt es auch zum Einklappen oder mit einem Pop-up-Dach. Für die teuerste Varianten solcher Shells kann man 60.000 Euro kalkulieren. Plus Auto, versteht sich. Ein kräftiger 4×4 bringt die Kiste überall hin. Für die Stadt ist die Kombination gut geeignet, weil der Wagen nicht länger ist als jeder normale SUV. Will man einen Tagesausflug unternehmen oder den Standort wechseln, so braucht man nur herumfliegende Kleinteile einzusammeln, die Schranktüren zu sichern und die Leiter einfahren. Kaum Aufwand. Wir würden eine Markise und eine Außendusche anbauen. Und die Aufhängung der Leiter verändern. Die hängt nur an drei Bändern und sackt bei jedem Ein- und Aussteigen etwas nach unten. Der Rest war perfekt. Die Kosten Als wir uns für eine geländegängige Variante interessiert haben, waren wir überrascht. So ein 4×4-Camper ist teurer als die kleinen Hiace-Bully-Camper, in denen man alles umbauen muss und nicht stehen kann. Aber gleichpreisig oder sogar günstiger als Camper in Sprinter-Transit-Größe. Je nach Ausstattung. Die haben häufig eine Klimaanlage. Darauf können wir gut verzichten. Camper: 31 Tage – 3.908,00 Euro (mit Rundumsorglos-Versicherung, zweitem Fahrer und Übernahme am Feiertag) Campingplätze: 663 Euro (5 mal haben wir kostenlos gestanden) Diesel: 208 Euro (wir sind nur 1.800 Kilometer gefahren, Verbrauch: 12.7 Liter auf 100 km) Eintritte: 199 Euro Essen und Trinken: 669 Euro (wir haben uns fast zu 100 Prozent selbst verpflegt) Sonstiges: 116 Euro (Taxi, Bus und ein paar Kleinigkeiten) Alle Berichte sind unter atanga.de zu finden: https://atanga.de/?p=143408
