If you’re looking for a boat that feels utterly indestructible, the Botnia Targa 32 has a reputation that's hard to ignore. Often referred to as the “4x4 of the sea”, this is a boat designed and built in Finland, where harsh weather and choppy waters demand serious engineering. The result? Something that feels incredibly solid, confidence-inspiring, and ready to take on just about anything you throw at it. This particular 2019 example comes with some standout features, including the sleek black pack, a hardtop configuration (far more usable than the small flybridge alternatives), and an external helm that’s ideal for fishing 🎣 or manoeuvring in tighter spaces. Step inside and you’re met with a refreshingly honest interior—no unnecessary frills, just high-quality materials, clever storage, and a layout that prioritises practicality over show. It’s the kind of boat where everything feels built to last. Accommodation is compact but very well thought through, with a forward cabin, an aft cabin offering multiple berths, and a functional heads compartment. Up at the helm, visibility is excellent and the controls are reassuringly simple. Paired with twin 400hp Volvo engines, this Targa doesn’t just feel tough - it delivers serious performance too, cruising comfortably while still capable of pushing up to impressive speeds. We also take a detailed look at what it actually costs to own one, from purchase price and finance, through to fuel burn, servicing, and annual running costs. If you want a boat that you can use year-round, in real conditions, without compromise, the Targa 32 makes a very strong case for itself. ⏱️ Timestamps: 00:46 – Introducing the 2019 Botnia Targa 32 01:56 – Unique cockpit features 02:50 – Tour of the interior 06:33 – Helm position & visibility 07:37 – Forward cabin 08:40 – Aft cabin & bathroom layout 10:12 – Engine bay & twin 400hp Volvos 11:04 – A look at the Bow 12:23 – Ownership costs breakdown 14:16 – JB’s Measure of Pleasure & final verdict 🔔 Like & Subscribe for more exclusive factory tours and boat reviews!

This morning it looked like Sam Goodchild was leading a small group on a breakout into stronger winds, but as we've seen so far in the Vendée Globe, things can be short lived. The wind is tantilizingly close, but the chasers are closing up to him quickly in breeze of their own. Meanwhile, to the east, Jean Le Cam is travelling at close to 15 knots, and his route could yet pay dividends. #vg2024 #imoca #vendeeglobe

But this wasn’t always our life. In 2020, we found Yabá abandoned, sinking, and on the verge of being lost forever. We had no experience in boatbuilding, only a wild dream and the determination to make it happen. We worked relentlessly, learning from the best local shipwrights and pouring everything we had into this rebuild. It took four years of sweat, setbacks, and unwavering commitment, but today, Yabá is more than just a boat, she’s our home, our biggest adventure, and the proof that crazy dreams *can* come true. Now, we’re sailing into the unknown, exploring remote islands, embracing the unpredictable and sharing the highs, the lows, and everything in between.

Und tatsächlich werden wir fündig und lösen unser Problem. 🔧✨ Doch dieser Ort schenkt uns noch viel mehr. Spaziergänge entlang des Meeres, der Duft von Salz in der Luft, ein unerwartet schöner Strand 🏖️ und ein Mittagessen, welches wir mit Blick auf die weite Bucht von Cádiz genießen. 🍽️🌅 Ein Zwischenstopp, der sich wie ein kleines Geschenk anfühlt. Komm mit und erlebe diesen besonderen Moment mit uns. 🎥💙 Fair Winds von der SY-Bruty Crew Jörg & Gitti. Wir, Gitti und Jörg, freuen uns riesig über euer Abo, eure Kommentare und einen Daumen hoch.

Maiden Voyage again! In this adventure-packed video, we take you along as we travel and sail from Cairns to Airlie Beach, heading south down the coast to get out of the cyclone belt with a detour or two along the way to explore the beautiful Fitzroy Island, Dunk Island and Zoe Bay. The best part? After a recent refit of our aluminum catamaran, our fuel consumption has dropped dramatically. Come along for the ride as we share the excitement of these stunning destinations and reveal how the refit is changing the way we sail. Rig Tuning Video: https://youtu.be/OIupfWvCHag ________________ Ahoy! We’re the James Family, a trio sailing around the globe and sharing our family-friendly adventures every week!

et toi tu préfères quoi ?

Navegar a vela alrededor de las ISLAS CÍES es como un sueño. Su parte oriental, con pacíficas playas como la playa de Rodas, considerada por THE GUARDIAN la mejor playa del mundo, La de NOSA SEÑORA o la Playa de SAN MARTIÑO que está en la isla sur, es como un sueño idílico que se hace realidad. Esta sensación de paz contrasta con la visita de la cara occidental de las ISLAS CÍES. Es una zona acantilada, con rocas cortantes, rota de las embestidas de las olas desde tiempos inmemoriales. Esto no las desmerece. En absoluto. Este paisaje transmite toda la fuerza de la costa gallega en una sola imagen. Es el atractivo de la dureza. Como un choque de realidad. En este vídeo podrás ver cómo damos una vuelta a vela alrededor de la isla norte o ISLA DE MONTEAGUDO. Además de este paisaje natural, salvaje, verás como nuestro barco, un Jeanneau Sun Odissey 57.1 se pega unos bordos espectaculares. Ceñida, través, navegar a un largo y hasta una buena empopada muy bien trimada por esta brava tripulación. Si quieres, tú también puedes disfrutar de esta navegación asistiendo a la MASTERCLASS SAILING TXEMACAPITAN, que tendrá lugar los días 2, 3 y 4 de junio de 2023.

Il **joystick Honda** è una soluzione innovativa e rivoluzionaria che consente un controllo preciso e sicuro dell’imbarcazione durante le manovre di ormeggio, anche con un solo motore. Grazie a questa tecnologia avanzata, Honda ridefinisce gli standard di manovrabilità, rendendo ogni operazione più semplice e intuitiva, perfetta anche per i diportisti meno esperti. ### **Caratteristiche principali del joystick Honda:** 1. **Manovrabilità a 360 gradi:** Il joystick consente di spostare l’imbarcazione in tutte le direzioni, anche lateralmente, offrendo una precisione assoluta durante l'ormeggio in spazi stretti o condizioni difficili. 2. **Integrazione perfetta con i motori fuoribordo Honda:** Ideale per i motori Honda, garantisce una connessione fluida e una reattività immediata, sfruttando appieno la potenza e l’efficienza dei motori per movimenti delicati ma potenti. 3. **Sicurezza e controllo:** Il joystick permette manovre più sicure, riducendo il rischio di collisioni o errori di calcolo. È particolarmente utile in condizioni di vento o corrente, dove il controllo preciso è essenziale. 4. **Facilità d’uso:** Il sistema è progettato per essere intuitivo, con comandi ergonomici e una curva di apprendimento veloce. Anche chi ha poca esperienza può gestire l’imbarcazione con sicurezza. 5. **Tecnologia all'avanguardia:** Basato su sensori avanzati e algoritmi di controllo, il sistema ottimizza la spinta del motore per garantire manovre fluide e senza strappi. ### **Perché scegliere il joystick Honda per un singolo motore?** La particolarità del joystick Honda è che funziona efficacemente anche con un solo motore fuoribordo. Questo è un vantaggio competitivo, poiché molti sistemi simili richiedono due o più motori per offrire una manovrabilità comparabile. Honda rende possibile manovrare agilmente senza dover investire in configurazioni multi-motore, garantendo al tempo stesso prestazioni elevate. ### **Ideale per:** - Diportisti che cercano una soluzione pratica e sicura per l’ormeggio. - Proprietari di barche di medie dimensioni, come cabinati o open, che utilizzano un singolo motore. - Chi desidera migliorare la propria esperienza di navigazione senza dover passare a sistemi complessi o costosi. Con il joystick Honda, ormeggiare diventa un’operazione semplice e rilassante, trasformando ogni uscita in mare in un’esperienza priva di stress.
