In Episode 29 of UK Sailmakers' Lessons Learned podcast, host Buttons Padin talks with Ceris and Paul Arns about Obsession, the Mark Mills designed MAT 1245 they campaign out of Western Australia. Ceris and Paul are the poster children for a husband and wife team fully committed to a racing program. "We're just committed to racing Obsession. If the boat is not used, we feel bad," Ceris noted. That commitment has paid off with back to back Ocean Racing Western Australian Championships and a long list of major wins. They trace their path from New Zealand to WA, coming back to sailing after raising a family, and building a crew culture that Ceris describes as "as much a family as we are a crew of good sailors." Paul credits three things for the results: seamanship and boat management, disciplined maintenance and sail upgrades, and strong team leadership from Geoff Bishop, owner of UK Sailmakers Fremantle. "We discussed our sail inventory, and we went entirely with UK Sailmakers' recommendations. We were a test platform for UK's new Integrated Structural Luff technology, and ISL, like all our UK sails, just plain works!" The episode also covers the WA sailing scene and clubs, what makes the MAT 1245 such a delight upwind, sea survival training, and their decision to truck Obsession 4,000 km east to race the Sydney to Gold Coast and then Hamilton Island Race Week in the Whitsundays, Queensland, which runs 15 to 22 August 2026. Whether you are building an offshore program from scratch or looking to get more out of the one you have, this episode is full of practical takeaways from two sailors who have achieved a lot in the last few years. 00:00 Introduction 01:01 How They Returned to Sailing 03:33 Building a Crew Family 05:48 Western Australia Sailing Scene 08:01 Obsession Racing Results 10:53 Keys to Consistent Success 12:04 What Makes the MAT 1245 Special 13:03 Trucking East and Big Regattas 16:05 Sea Survival Training 18:21 Sail Development with Geoff Bishop 22:16 What's Next for Obsession 23:03 Conclusion Like and subscribe to the UK Sailmakers YouTube channel to be notified when more great content from our channel is uploaded.

After sailing across Indonesia’s Makassar Strait from Sulawesi, we anchored of a wildly welcoming village in the Kalimantan region of Borneo keen to explore the region around the river city of Banjarmasin. We really enjoyed experiencing a number of “must sees” on our list including Indonesia’s last remaining floating markets and the textile district with its unique Sasirangan traditional resistance-dyed fabrics. But what we discovered on the alluvial plains outside the city truly shocked us. Men chest deep in muddy water at the bottom of deep pits hand dredging gravel searching of diamonds in much the same, extremely dangerous, manner as their forebears had done for for over a thousand years despite a truly horrifying and still climbing death toll. Sail along with us to experience the liveaboard lifestyle, remote island exploration, offshore sailing, tropical anchorages, and the freedom and challenges of long-term boat life. If you love sailing adventures, cruising life, travel documentaries, and exploring hidden gems off the beaten path, you will enjoy watching through to the end.

For the first time, Gineico Marine was invited to present at the Australian Commercial Marine Conference 2026. Held aboard M/V Starship Sydney, the conference brought together Australia’s commercial marine industry to discuss innovation, technology and the future of commercial vessel operations. During the event, we showcased commercial marine systems from two internationally respected manufacturers represented by Gineico Marine: • Gianneschi – specialists in purpose-built MED Certified marine pumps and ventilation systems designed for demanding commercial applications. • VECO – specialists in customised HVAC and refrigeration solutions for marine applications. These manufacturers offer equipment designed for demanding marine applications, including systems that can be configured and supplied to meet ATEX RATING and registry requirements. Thank you to the organisers and everyone who visited our display throughout the day. It was a privilege to be part of the conference and to discuss the importance of specification, compliance, reliability and long-term technical support across Australia’s commercial marine sector. We look forward to continuing those conversations and supporting future commercial marine projects. #GineicoMarine #CommercialMarine #MarineEngineering #AustralianCommercialMarineConference #MadeInItaly
An unforgettable day aboard the all-new Horizon ES88 Sport Yacht on the waters of Australia’s Gold Coast. 🎣🛥️ Lines tight, reels screaming and plenty of action — with fresh cobia and kingfish hitting the deck, this was one of those days on the water we won’t be forgetting anytime soon. And aboard this particular Horizon ES88, fishing isn’t an afterthought. This highly customised yacht has been specifically set up to make the most of the Australian boating lifestyle — whether that means heading offshore in search of big fish, spending the afternoon anchored with friends, or entertaining well into the evening. For serious days on the water, the ES88 features two dedicated live bait tanks, giving anglers plenty of capacity to keep bait healthy and ready when the action starts. The expansive aft entertaining area has also been designed to transition effortlessly from fishing mode to entertaining mode, with a dual teppanyaki grill, fully equipped bar and an electric aft awning providing additional shade and protection when needed. Catch your own dinner, fire up the teppanyaki grills pour a drink at the bar and enjoy it all from the aft deck — this is exactly what Australian yachting should be about. The Horizon ES88 - The Horizon ES88 represents a new expression of luxury performance yachting, combining a sleek, sporty profile with the craftsmanship, engineering and customisation Horizon Yachts is renowned for. Designed by Cor D. Rover, this highly customised ES88 features a single-level profile, four-stateroom accommodation, custom pilothouse helm, tender garage and an expansive main-deck galley — all designed around the way her Australian owner wants to use the yacht. With a 12,000-litre fuel capacity providing extended cruising capability, the ES88 has been created with Australian waters and long-range adventures firmly in mind. From offshore fishing trips and chasing pelagic species to extended coastal cruising, entertaining family and friends or simply dropping anchor somewhere spectacular, the ES88 brings together serious capability and luxury in one incredible package. And because the Horizon experience doesn’t finish when the engines turn off, we brought the day’s catch home to Horizon Yacht Australia HQ at Sanctuary Cove on the Gold Coast. From ocean to plate, it doesn’t get much fresher than cobia and kingfish prepared as sashimi after an incredible day offshore. This is what Horizon is all about. More than yacht ownership — it’s a lifestyle. Good yachts. Great fishing. Even better company. About Horizon Yacht Australia - Horizon Yacht Australia is the exclusive factory-appointed Australian dealer for new and brokerage for Horizon Yachts, supporting owners throughout the purchase, custom build and ownership journey.

Hoje é dia de buscar o piso e adiantar a capota! 🚤 Neste vídeo respondo sobre a capa da mestra — vai ser azul marinho, da mesma cor da capota, tudo harmônico.

⚓ UNA SEMANA DE MANTENIMIENTO… HASTA QUE EL VIENTO CAMBIÓ TODO 🌪️ Esta semana a bordo del Kira-Kira comenzó como tantas otras: trabajando, manteniendo y preparando el barco para lo que viene. ⛵🔧 Aprovechamos los días tranquilos para limpiar el fondo del barco, revisar distintos puntos y tratar con ácido fosfatizante algunas zonas donde la corrosión empezaba a aparecer. Porque vivir a bordo también significa esto: muchas horas de trabajo que no siempre se ven en las fotos, pero que son fundamentales para poder seguir navegando. 🧽⚓ Pero sobre el final de la semana, todo cambió. 🌪️ Un fuerte vendaval comenzó a azotar la costa, con vientos que llegaron a alcanzar los 60 nudos. Con las averías que ya veníamos arrastrando y el barco con algunas limitaciones, llegó el momento de dejar de trabajar en el mantenimiento y concentrarnos en algo mucho más importante: prepararnos para pasar el temporal de la mejor manera posible. Buscamos un fondeo seguro, revisamos todo lo que podía comprometerse y esperamos. Las horas de viento fueron intensas, pero finalmente el Kira-Kira atravesó el vendaval sin novedades. 💙⚓ Una vez más, el mar nos recuerda que navegar no es solamente disfrutar de los días tranquilos. También es saber leer las condiciones, anticiparse, preparar el barco y mantener la calma cuando las cosas se ponen difíciles. 🌊 Gracias por acompañarnos en cada capítulo de esta aventura. ⛵🌎 ❤️ Si querés ayudarnos a seguir navegando y produciendo estos contenidos, podés colaborar con el proyecto: ☕ Cafecito: https://cafecito.app/velerokira-kira ❤️ Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/familiameder?utm_campaign=creatorshare_creator 📲 También podés seguir nuestro día a día en Instagram: 👉 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/familiameder?igsh=eTg1aXB4em90cTBo 🔔 Suscribite al canal y acompañanos en los próximos capítulos.

Jason recounts the day’s journey.
▶ Assista ao episódio #63 completo: https://youtu.be/4-Mq0C-JCHg ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Navegar é acumular histórias, e poucas pessoas têm um repertório como o do Tony, também conhecido como Cachorro. Tive a sorte de reencontrá-lo junto ao veleiro Madrugada e gravar uma conversa sobre a transição da navegação que ele viveu: um tempo em que a tecnologia era escassa e o melhor instrumento a bordo era o instinto do marinheiro. Antes dos aplicativos de previsão do tempo, o que valia era olhar para as nuvens, sentir a temperatura, acompanhar o barômetro e triangular informações com uma sabedoria que parece se perder. "O troço era meio instintivo", conta ele, lembrando dos gurus da previsão que se criaram na navegação comercial a vela em São Lourenço e Pelotas. Além de relembrar sua primeira travessia para Montevidéu aos 16 anos, com um rádio gônio como único auxílio eletrônico, Tony também revela a divertida origem do seu apelido, nascido em 1977 numa saída com amigos. Em paralelo, compartilho um perrengue a bordo do Sal: a troca do atuador do piloto automático, que se mostrou uma tarefa bem mais complexa do que o esperado. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📲 Siga o Hashtag Sal: Instagram: @hashtagsal_oficial 🔔 Inscreva-se no canal e ative o sininho pra acompanhar os próximos episódios. #HistoriasDoMar #NavegaçãoRaiz #Skipper #HashtagSal #Cortes #Vela #Veleiro
THIS is how the cake gets baked. 👀🎂⛵️ I’ve never seen anything like this. The chainplates are going in, with unidirectional strands saturated in green epoxy that bonds the chainplates to the hull, then everything is sealed with black 3M 4000 UV. 🛠️💪 Once the cabinetry is reinstalled, you’ll never know they’re there. 👀 Chainplates on an Island Packet have a shelf life. These should last the rest of MY shelf life. 😂⚓️ #IslandPacket320 #IslandPacket #Chainplates #SailboatRefit #SailboatRepair #BoatRepair #SailboatMaintenance #BoatRestoration #SailingLife #SaltyAbandon

Of all the traditions we’ve built over the years, this will always be one of our favorites.

When an emergency strikes at sea, the decision of when to abandon ship is critical. While rapid sinking or an uncontrollable fire are clear indicators to leave, managing a slower emergency requires careful judgment. The golden rule is to never step down into a life raft; you want to stay with your vessel as long as possible. Before making the final call, ensure you have issued a Mayday, activated your EPIRB, and fully prepared your abandonment procedures. #sailing #boating #sailingschool #yacht
Fechou com chave de ouro. O último dia da 53ª Semana Internacional de Vela de Ilhabela Daycoval trouxe vento forte e condições ideais para decidir tudo o que ainda estava em aberto, e as raias responderam à altura, com disputas intensas até a última virada. Com as classes ORC, BRA-RGS, RGS Cruiser, Clássicos, C30, HPE25 e Super 40 na água, as tripulações deram tudo o que tinham para fechar a semana da melhor forma possível.

⚓ Perché l’ancora della barca si incaglia e come evitare che rimanga bloccata sul fondale? In questa puntata di Nautica in Pillole vediamo gli errori più comuni durante l’ancoraggio e alcuni accorgimenti utili per calare e recuperare correttamente l’ancora. Se la tua ancora si incaglia spesso, il problema potrebbe non dipendere dall’ancora stessa, ma da come viene utilizzata. Uno degli errori più comuni è lasciare troppa poca catena o cima rispetto alla profondità del fondale. L’ancora deve riuscire ad appoggiarsi correttamente e lavorare con la giusta inclinazione. Se la linea di ancoraggio è troppo corta, l’ancora può assumere una posizione sfavorevole e avere maggiori probabilità di bloccarsi tra rocce e altri ostacoli. ⚓ Quanta catena lasciare quando si ancora? Come riferimento viene spesso insegnato un rapporto di circa 1:3 tra profondità e lunghezza della linea di ancoraggio, da adattare però alle condizioni reali. Fondale, vento, corrente, spazio disponibile e caratteristiche dell’imbarcazione possono richiedere valutazioni differenti. Un altro elemento fondamentale è scegliere l’ancora adatta al tipo di fondale. Sabbia, fango, ghiaia e roccia hanno caratteristiche molto diverse e non tutte le ancore lavorano allo stesso modo su ogni superficie. Prima di ancorare è quindi utile conoscere il tipo di fondale e verificare se l’ancora installata sulla propria barca è adatta alle condizioni che si incontreranno. 🔧 Attenzione anche a musone, giunto e girella dell’ancora. Una girella ben funzionante può consentire all’ancora di ruotare e posizionarsi correttamente, mentre un musone adeguato permette alla catena e all’ancora di lavorare e scorrere nel modo previsto. Anche questi componenti possono fare la differenza durante le operazioni di ancoraggio e recupero. ⚓ Come recuperare un’ancora senza incagliarla ancora di più? Evita, quando possibile, di iniziare il recupero mentre la barca è ancora molto distante dal punto in cui si trova l’ancora. Tirando la catena con una forte componente orizzontale potresti aumentare la presa dell’ancora sul fondale. È preferibile portare la barca in prossimità della verticale dell’ancora e procedere quindi al recupero. In determinate situazioni, superare leggermente il punto dell’ancora può aiutare a modificare la direzione della forza e facilitarne il disincaglio. In questa puntata di Nautica in Pillole scopri quindi: • perché l’ancora si incaglia sul fondale; • quanta catena o cima lasciare; • come scegliere l’ancora in base al fondale; • perché girella e musone sono importanti; • quali errori evitare durante l’ancoraggio; • come recuperare correttamente l’ancora della barca.

In this episode, I leave the Isles of Scilly behind and set sail across the Celtic Sea for the south coast of Ireland. ⛵️🇮🇪 What should have been a straightforward passage quickly turned into a race against another sailing boat making the same crossing — although I’m not entirely sure they knew they were racing! But either way, I was very pleased to see Safar make light work of a modern yacht After making landfall in Baltimore, I spend a few days exploring this beautiful corner of West Cork before continuing west around some of Ireland’s most spectacular coastline, eventually making my way towards Dingle. ⛵ If you'd like to support the channel and help keep Safar sailing, you can do so here: Safar's PayPal: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=APS445AXPAAXW Sharing the episode with friends, on facebook or in your sailing groups really helps the channel grow. 📸 Follow Sailing Safar on Instagram: / sailingsafar Thanks for watching, and fair winds.

This 60 year old Sparkman & Stephens yacht has an incredible pedigree, a valuable mast, and a recently reduced asking price. The aluminum hull could still be viable or require a $200,000 replating job, making a complete hull-thickness survey essential before buying it.

After our boat was badly damaged by the boatyard, we now have to trust them to lift Escapade again — and this time, everything has to go right. After everything that happened to Escapade, the time finally comes to start putting her back together. But before we can get anywhere near putting this nightmare behind us, there is one thing we have been absolutely dreading… we have to trust the boatyard to lift our boat again. After watching our boat sustain serious damage during the previous lift, seeing her go back onto the same equipment was nerve-wracking to say the least. This time, every lifting point, every support and every movement matters. In this episode, we begin the repairs and start dismantling parts of the cabin to access the areas that need to be rebuilt. We show you exactly what is involved in repairing the structural damage, what we discover along the way, and how the repair process comes together. At the same time, things with the boatyard continue to be difficult, with more challenges and frustrations appearing as we try to get Escapade repaired and ready for the next stage. After months of being stuck, dealing with the damage, insurance battles, unexpected costs and one setback after another, we're desperate to finally get our home back to where she needs to be.

This is the story so far. At 65, the life I thought I would have was gone. My marriage of 35 years had ended. My dream of returning to life aboard a sailboat seemed farther away than ever. And instead of beginning a new life, I found myself moving in with my 95-year-old father and becoming his caregiver. For more than two years, I kept hoping my marriage could somehow be restored. I prayed. I waited. I begged. These first nine episodes of **Sailing Nervous: Starting Over** follow that journey—from losing the life I knew, through caring for Dad, to the moment when something inside me finally changed. I said: **“I’m not begging her anymore. I’m moving on.”** And that's where this chapter ends. Not because the story is over. Because the next chapter is about to begin. **Starting Over at 65 — The Hardest Chapter** brings Episodes 1–9 together as one continuous story. #SailingNervous #StartingOver #StartingOverAt65 #LifeAfterDivorce #Over60 #SailingLife #NewBeginnings

Part 2 continues the same radar plotting scenario from Part 1, where the target bearing does not change, indicating a collision course. In this tutorial, we determine the target’s true course and speed, then use radar plotting techniques to determine own ship’s new course and new speed to achieve a safe passing distance and avoid collision. #radarplotting #radar #colreg #collisionregulation #navigation #passageplanning #seamanship #maritime #seafarer #seaman #bsmt #maritimestudents https://youtu.be/L48N-KzSiSk https://youtu.be/F9PS_SHRNBQ https://youtu.be/xEcA5rV32kY
How does a Garcia Exploration 45 perform on an Arctic sailing expedition? During the AKOR 2024 Expedition, L’Anorak, a Garcia Exploration 45 aluminium sailing yacht, carried the team from Baker Lake across Hudson Bay and Hudson Strait to Pangnirtung, on Baffin Island. This two-week sailing leg through remote northern waters put the yacht’s capability to the test. Strong winds, residual ice and demanding conditions required a boat able to provide stability, robustness, autonomy and a reliable base for the crew. In this episode of Garcia Bluewater Feedback, the AKOR team shares its real sailing experience aboard L’Anorak and explains why the Garcia Exploration 45 was particularly well suited to their expedition program. From aluminium construction to life on board, this is first-hand feedback on what matters when a bluewater sailing yacht becomes a working part of an expedition. 00:00 AKOR Expedition | Garcia Exploration 45 00:15 A Sailing Program in the Canadian Arctic 00:33 Manoeuvring from the Sheltered Cockpit 00:48 Navigating from Inside in Ice Conditions 01:01 Life On Board, Ergonomics & Performance ➤ Discover the Garcia Exploration 45: https://www.garciayachts.com/en/sailsboats/exploration-45 #GarciaYachts #BluewaterSailing #ExpeditionSailing
