On Sunday we were joined by Timon from "Virtual Vulcan to the Skies" and XH558 to conduct a series of flypasts and to pay our respects to Air Commodore Simon Baldwin who passed away last week. As Wing Commander and Officer Commanding 44 (Rhodesia) Squadron at RAF Waddington in 1982, Simon played a key role in the planning and preparation of the Vulcan operations during the Falklands conflict, known as Operation Black Buck. He oversaw the training requirements for the crews, including a number of those who would later be closely associated with XH558. Following his retirement, Simon and his wife Sheila remained huge supporters of the remaining Live Vulcans, as well as Falklands and 44 (Rhodesia) Squadron reunions. We send our sincere condolences to Simon's family and friends. He will be greatly missed by all who knew him. Blue skies, sir. Rest in peace.

This week aboard aboard our family sailing vlog, we tackle a big catamaran repair: fixing our broken main halyard at the masthead. Using what was left of the broken halyard, we went up the mast and replace it. It was nerve-wracking but it worked — and we’re back sailing! I was a satisfying DIY catamaran repair win! Between repairs, we explored a tiny shack on a remote Chesapeake beach and were greeted by dolphins on our way into Norfolk, VA. First dolphins we've seen on the boat!!! I also share an issue I’ve been tackling with our boom crane, and the fix I’m trying to make it work reliably. ⚓ Join our family aboard our 50-foot Royal Cape catamaran as we take on repairs, adventures, and everyday life while cruising. 🔧 Boat Work: Replacing the main halyard on a Royal Cape 500 catamaran, boom crane troubleshooting on a Royal Cape 500 catamaran. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👧 Crew: Liveaboard family of 4, emotional support dolphins Patreon: patreon.com/SVChasingSerenity

Faire du neuf avec du vieux ? Il y a de cela dans le reconditionnement d'un Lagoon 620 âgé de 10 ans sur le site italien du Groupe Bénéteau à Monfalcone (Italie). Il y a surtout une démarche qui permet de prolonger la vie des bateaux en les mettant au goût du jour et en permettant à leur propriétaire de profiter d'une nouvelle garantie constructeur.

Gerne wäre wir länger in Marea del Portillo geblieben, jenem kleinen Fischerdorf, in dem wir so viele nette Kubaner kennengelernt haben. Doch wir haben einen Schatten, einen uniformierten Schatten, der uns auf Schritt und Tritt beäugt. Wahrscheinlich aus Angst, wir könnten Schleuser sein. Aufgrund der Wirtschaftskrise und des politischen Regimes, versuchen viele Kubaner das Land zu verlassen. Am nächsten Tag offenbart uns der Grenzschutz, dass wir die Bucht verlassen müssen. Wir sollen im benachbarten Pilón ankern, wo der Grenzschutz eine Station hat. Der kleine Abstecher erweist sich als Glücksgriff, Pilón ist eine hübsche Stadt und der Ankerplatz, auch bei starkem Ostwind, wider Erwarten gut geschützt. Als es weitergeht, müssen wir erneut am späten Nachmittag unseren Plan ändern. Statt Cabo Cruz anzulaufen, segeln wir weiter - durch die Nacht.

#sailingfamily #familyvlog #sailingaroundtheworld #familytravelvlog #boatlife #bucketlist #lifestyle #travel #sailboat The Surprising Truth About Sailing in Indonesia Nobody Tells You We make it to KUPANG Indonesia after 5 days and experience the MOST invasive check in with customs and immigration in our entire 20 months of sailing around the world. We are a suburban blended family that has raised our 3 older children and now want to travel the world. After planning and saving for the past 6 years, we are now embracing our dream of sailing around the world on our Leopard 45 sailing catamaran. Follow our journey as we Circumnavigate the Globe in 3-4 years on a budget of $4,800/month (food, communication, fuel, insurance, transportation, mooring/marina & fun). We left the USA in October 2023 and plan to visit 26 countries on 5 different continents all while worldschooling a budding teen in our off grid tiny house. 🏆 Looking for boating spreadsheets, inside info or wanna help keep the dream alive?

Microbial Infestation at Luperón, Dominican Republic. Logic dictated a standard fuel check, but the sub-surface reality was a mission-critical threat: "Yellow and stringy" growth in the diesel tank. On SV Agua Azul, we don't have the luxury of a tow. If the fuel system fails, the logic flow stops. This is the forensic truth of Microbial Fuel Contamination. The Diesel Bug (Microbial growth) was identified in its infancy stage during a routine lazarette inspection. Redneck Engineering: Using a specialized vacuum to clear the tank top followed by a forensic camera probe to identify the "slime" before it reached the injectors. A chemical kill-and-dissolve treatment is the immediate sub-surface necessity to keep The Nest operational before a total tank pump-out. The situation shifted into a survival risk as a Wall of Trash and logs flooded the bay after a massive storm, threatening to clog intakes and damage the hull. Watch as the mission enters a hard limit while we navigate a sea of debris to assist neighbors with swamping dinghies. THE BUTT PUCKER RATING: 4/5 🍑 CONTEXT: The blunt reality of seeing "yellow stringy" growth in your primary propulsion source while watching a wall of town refuse and heavy logs drift toward your waterline. ​💬 VETERAN & SAILOR DEBRIEF: Have you ever had to polish fuel in a remote anchorage or lost an engine to the "bug" in a narrow channel?

Die meisten modernen Segelboote bestehen aus GFK (glasfaserverstärkter Kunststoff). Der Werkstoff ist leicht, stabil, langlebig und korrosionsfrei – ideale Eigenschaften für den Einsatz auf See. Deshalb hat GFK den klassischen Holz- und Stahlbootbau bei vielen Freizeitbooten weitgehend ersetzt. Mehr nautisches Wissen und Onlinekurse für Bootsführerscheine findest du hier: segelnag.com

Willkommen zu einer neuen Episode des OLP Ocean Life Podcasts!  Clemens Stecher und Claus Aktoprak tauchen heute tief in ein zentrales Thema des Segelns ein: das Reffen.  Das Reffen, also die Reduktion der Segelfläche, wird oft unterschätzt. Doch es ist weit mehr als ein Notmanöver – es ist ein essenzieller Bestandteil der Segeltechnik, um Sicherheit, Komfort und Effizienz zu gewährleisten. In dieser Folge lernet ihr: • Warum das Reffen mit der Gangschaltung eines Autos vergleichbar ist. • Welche Rolle Krängung spielt und warum „weniger oft mehr“ ist. • Die Unterschiede zwischen In-Mast-Furling- und Lattengroß-Systemen. • Wichtige praktische Tipps, wie man das Boot balanciert und effektiv refft. • Persönliche Anekdoten, wie das Reffen auch in Stresssituationen zum Erfolg führt.--- Egal, ob Ihr einhand segelt, mit einer Crew unterwegs seid oder gerade erst mit dem Segeln beginnt – dieser Podcast liefert Euch fundiertes Wissen und praktische Einsichten, die auf dem Wasser Gold wert sind. Ihr wollt noch mehr? Der OLP Podcast ist auch als kostenpflichtiger Videopodcast verfügbar, inklusive nützlicher Checklisten und Zusammenfassungen zum Download. Die ersten 30 Tage sind kostenlos – ganz ohne Risioko testen :-) Hier könnt ihr den Videopodcast abonnieren: • https://copecart.com/products/2c139b8f/checkout--- Der Podcast wird produziert von der Podcastagentur zweihochzwei (https://www.zweihochzwei.at) --- Keypoints: • Reffen als Schlüsseltechnik: Warum es vergleichbar mit der Gangschaltung eines Autos ist. • Optimale Segelstellung: Sicherheit, Materialschonung und Geschwindigkeit durch richtige Segelfläche. • Systemvergleich: In-Mast-Furling vs. Lattengroß – Vor- und Nachteile. • Praktische Tipps: Balance auf dem Boot, effizientes Reffen und was bei verschiedenen Systemen zu beachten ist. • Exklusive Insights: Persönliche Segelabenteuer und praxisnahe Lösungen für stressige Situationen.Falls euch diese Episode gefällt, hinterlasst gerne eine Bewertung auf Spotify, Apple Podcasts oder eurer bevorzugten Plattform.
