Eşim denizden korkmuyordu, ama hiç denize açılmamıştı. İlk deneyim yanlış olsaydı, muhtemelen bir daha tekneye binmezdi. Bu videoda, ilk kez denize açılan birini tekneye nasıl alıştırdığımı, nelere özellikle dikkat ettiğimi ve ilk izlenimin neden bu kadar kritik olduğunu anlatıyorum. Eğer siz de: ⚓ “Eşim / partnerim hiç tekneye binmedi” ⚓ “İlk deniz deneyimi nasıl olmalı?” ⚓ “Tekneye alışması için ne yapmalıyım?” diyorsanız, bu video tam size göre. 🎯 Yelkenli yatçılık eğitimlerimizle ilk deniz deneyimini keyfe dönüştürüyoruz.

Hi and welcome aboard @SailingAstridTheWombat We are Gav and Shezz and two and a half years ago we bought our Beneteau Oceanis 430 sailboat with absolutely no sailing experience and jumped straight into the deep end of liveaboard sailing. Our very first passage was just over 700 nautical miles, launching us headfirst into the world of bluewater cruising, learning to sail, and real life at sea. Since that moment, we’ve been fully immersed in boat life, documenting the journey of turning a production cruising sailboat into a capable, self-sufficient home as we prepare for full-time liveaboard life. From major sailboat upgrades and off-grid power systems to everyday maintenance and skills building, we’re learning what it truly takes to own, sail, and live on a boat while working toward our goal of sailing around the world. If you’re into sailing adventures, beginner sailing, sailboat ownership, cruising lifestyle, and traveling the world by sailboat, our journey is all about real-time learning, ocean freedom, and building the confidence to chase long-term world cruising under sail. In this episode of our liveaboard sailing journey, we explore the incredible coastline of Moreton Island and climb to the top of the famous sandhills for one of the most breathtaking views we’ve ever seen from our cruising sailboat. After sailing across the bay and anchoring off this wild and remote island, we head ashore to experience the natural beauty that makes this destination so special for sailors, cruisers, and lovers of boat life. Living as liveaboard sailors, we’re constantly reminded that some of the most unforgettable experiences come from places you can only truly reach by boat. Moreton Island is a dream stop for anyone interested in coastal cruising, anchoring in remote locations, and combining sailing adventures with land exploration. From the water, the towering sandhills look surreal — but climbing to the top reveals sweeping views of the ocean, coastline, and our tiny floating home anchored below. This episode captures the heart of cruising life and slow travel by sailboat. We leave the boat behind for a few hours, hike through soft sand, and take in the raw, untouched landscape that makes island sailing and world travel by sailboat so unique. It’s moments like this that balance the practical side of sailboat ownership — maintenance, upgrades, and passage planning — with the adventure and freedom that come with life at sea. If you’re interested in liveaboard sailing, beginner sailing, sailboat living, or you’re a sailboat owner dreaming of bigger adventures, this episode shows the lifestyle side of bluewater cruising. It’s not just about miles sailed; it’s about the places your boat can take you — hidden beaches, dramatic landscapes, and views you have to earn. We are preparing our boat and ourselves for sailing around the world, and experiences like this are a huge part of that journey. Exploring islands, anchoring off remote shores, and discovering nature from our floating home is what liveaboard cruising life is all about. Follow along as we share real boat life, sailing adventures, and the path toward full-time world cruising — one anchorage, one island, and one unforgettable view at a time.

Join us now as we settle into liveaboard life and get our boat ready to take off and sail around the world. As new sailors we want to share all of our learnings and keep it real in our videos. We want to show step by step what it takes to choose a boat, buy the boat and learn how to sail. Our sailing learning curve is steep so come along with us as we learn and grow as liveaboard sailors. We promise you will have a laugh!

Sailing through squalls with the family prepping for race day.

Dopo una meravigliosa dormita nelle comode cabine di Zadig, ci siamo svegliati verso le ore 8:00. Fatta colazione, abbiamo deciso di temporeggiare in porto in attesa del previsto miglioramento delle condizioni meteo ed abbiamo approfittato per fare alcuni lavoretti a bordo. Prima di tutto abbiamo regolato l'albero che spennava leggermente a dritta, abbiamo capito meglio il funzionamento delle due pompe di sentina installate e poi sistemato l'impianto audio Bose, che ora suona a meraviglia! Per pranzo Daniele ci ha deliziato anche oggi con un ottimo piatto di pasta e verso le ore 16:00 ci siamo recati al gabbiotto della polizia di Novigrad per dichiarare il nostro ingresso in Croazia. Abbiamo compilato i moduli con le nostre generalità ma non abbiamo ancora potuto pagare la necessaria tassa di ingresso perché l'ufficio era già chiuso. Pertanto ci siamo rimessi in marcia alle ore 17:00 e, dopo aver studiato a fondo il portolano, ci siamo convinti a fare rotta sull'isola di Losinj, distante circa 60 miglia. Fino ad ora abbiamo potuto navigare solamente a motore con vento di circa 10 nodi in faccia. Inoltre, proprio in questo momento stiamo riscontrando mare fastidioso da prua e stiamo optando per ripararci qualche ora nella vicina rada di Portic, poco dopo Pula, visto che il meteo previsto per la giornata di domani sembra ottimale fin dalla mattina presto e ci consentirà una navigazione sicuramente più piacevole.

Nesta viagem, mudamos a rota do dia para noite e seguimos nosso rumo a Fort Lauderdale, Flórida, em busca de baterias de lítio com um preço melhor porque aqui no Caribe os valores estavam muito acima do que queríamos pagar. Durante a travessia, mostramos um pouco da nossa rotina a bordo: como é navegar à noite, lidar com o vento, as ondas e todos os detalhes de quem vive a vida no mar. 🌊⛵ Se você gosta de aventuras náuticas, dicas de barcos e a vida a bordo, acompanhe nossa jornada e veja de perto como é navegar pelo Caribe rumo à Flórida! 🔔 Junte-se à nossa aventura!

Pour ce nouvel épisode, rencontre avec Alex Caizergues. Deux fois Champion du monde de vitesse à la voile, quatre fois Champion du monde de vitesse en kite surf et actuel recordman de vitesse en kite surf avec 107 km/h, notre sportif de haut niveau est aussi un vrai entrepreneur. A la tête de Syroco, une start-up basée à Marseille, il s’attaque à un nouveau défi : atteindre les 150 km/h sur l’eau et pulvériser le record de vitesse à la voile. Un projet fou ?

Reading the Telltales on Your Sails: https://www.practical-sailor.com/sails-rigging-deckgear/reading-the-telltales-on-your-sails You’re trimming your mainsail WRONG. Today we break down the most common mainsail trim mistakes sailors make — and then I’ll show you the exact step-by-step sail trim procedure that will make your boat faster, safer, and way more comfortable. Whether you’re racing, cruising, learning to sail, or living aboard, proper mainsail trim is one of the most important skills you can develop. This video covers mainsail twist, outhaul tension, traveler positioning, backstay and mast bend, luff tension, draft control, leech tension, and how to use the vang correctly. We also talk about heel angle, weather helm, and why your sailboat feels out of balance when the trim is wrong. If your boat heels too much… If your helm feels heavy… If you can’t point high… If your speed is disappointing… This video will FIX all of it. ⚓ MAINSAIL TRIM REFERENCE PACK (All Sources Mentioned) These are the guides, PDFs, and videos I recommend if you want to go deeper: • Quantum Sails – Mainsail Trim Guide (PDF) https://www.quantumsails.com/getattachment/Resources-and-Expertise/Articles/Downloadable-Sail-Trim-Guides/QuantumSails_TrimGuide_Mainsail.pdf.aspx • Speed & Smarts – “Mainsail Trim” https://www.speedandsmarts.com/toolbox/articles2/the-fast-course/mainsail-trim • Sail Magazine – “Mainsail Trim 101” https://www.sailmagazine.com/diy/mainsail-trim-101/ • NauticEd – “How to Trim the Mainsail — Traveler or Mainsheet?” https://sailing-blog.nauticed.org/how-to-trim-the-mainsail-traveler-or-mainsheet/ • Yachting News – “Mainsail Trimming: 4 Steps to Keep It in Shape” https://www.yachtingnews.com/mainsail-trimming/ • All At Sea Caribbean – “Guide to Sail Control: Mainsail Trim” https://www.allatsea.net/guide-to-sail-control-part-ii-mainsail-trim/ • North Sails / RSYS – Mainsail Trim Webinar https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-W9fA7Vgro • Sail Trim Masterclass https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lWRI8MJ67WY • “3 Ways To Sail Faster — Mainsail Trim Techniques” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ClMisGS9WJg Practical Sailor is your trusted resource for reviews of sailboats and sailing gear. https://www.practical-sailor.com Chat with us on Facebook! https://www.facebook.com/PracticalSailor/

DISCLAIMER!! Questo video è particolarmente caotico, volevamo comunque racchiudere in un video mesi di lavoro e di impegno, speriamo riusciate ad apprezzare in qualche modo lo sforzo ♥️ Dopo mesi di latitanza, eccoci di nuovo su PataVenture, il canale YouTube dedicato alla nostra barca a vela Patatraque, una U22 del ‘76, cantiere Massari!⛵️🐋 Per chi non ci conoscesse ancora, siamo Claudio e Mia, una coppia di giovani ed inesperti velisti che hanno realizzato un sogno: restaurare e ridare vita ad una vecchia barca a vela, per vivere fantastiche avventure in giro per il (piccolo) Grande Blu!🌊🐋 Speriamo ci perdonerete per i lunghi mesi di silenzio dall’ultimo video: gli impegni, il meteo e il poco tempo a nostra disposizione ci hanno costretti a concentrarci sui mille lavori che la barca richiedeva prima del varo. A malincuore abbiamo messo da parte la realizzazione dei video per il canale, ma, per quanto abbiamo potuto, abbiamo documentato le nostre giornate. Eccovi quindi un video sui lavori/disastri che abbiamo combinato, un video che racchiude mille e nessun lavoro: insomma, un video un po’ confusionario, un po’ alla bona, proprio come noi!🙃🐋 Siamo riusciti a fare tutti i lavori che volevamo fare⁉️ Certo che no!😂 Siamo riusciti a tornare in acqua in tempo⁉️ Seguiteci per scoprirlo!😉 Music track: Bohemo Island by Moavii Source: https://freetouse.com/music Free Background Music (No Copyright) Music track: Stranded by Moavii Source: https://freetouse.com/music Copyright Free Music (Free Download) #sailing #adventure #travel #diariodibordo #barca #summer #cantiere #lavori#barcaavela#mediterraneo #sailboat #sailinglife #esplora #vela #explore #mare #sea #progetto #vlog #diary #raymarine #yamaha #u22 #massari #lombardini #viaggiare

Stellen Sie sich vor, du bist auf dem Wasser unterwegs, und plötzlich fällt eine Person über Bord. Wie kannst du als Crewmitglied in dieser kritischen Situation effektiv handeln und die Person sicher zurück an Bord bringen? In diesem Video zeigen wir dir, wie du mit Hilfe des MOB Lifesavers eine Person sicher aus dem Wasser retten kannst. In zwei realitätsnahen Szenarien demonstrieren wir, mit und ohne Wellengang während unseres Offshore Sicherheitstrainings, wie einfach es ist, die lebenswichtige Verbindung zu einer über Bord gegangenen Person herzustellen. Die leuchtend gelbe Dyneema-Leine treibt nach dem Auslösen der Rettungsweste auf der Wasseroberfläche und kann mit einem Bootshaken bequem erreicht werden. Wenn du sie am Spinnaker-Fall befestigst, kannst du die Person mit dem MOB Lifesaver aus dem Wasser ziehen. Beeindruckend ist, dass der MOB Lifesaver mit einer Bruchlast von 1,3 Tonnen sogar stärker ist als der sogenannte Liftgurt in einer Rettungsweste. Der MOB Lifsaver ist aus unserer Sicht eine absolut sinnvolle und einfach anzubringende Ergänzung für die Rettungsweste. ► MOB Lifesaver findest Du im Shop: https://shop.sailpartner.de/products/mob-lifesaver ► Der Bericht zum Mob Lifesaver findest Du in unserm Fahrtwind-Blog: https://www.sailpartner.de/mob-lifesaver/ ----------- ÜBER SAILPARTNER ----------- Durch unsere eigene jahrzehntelange Segelerfahrung können wir unseren Kunden Trainings, Dienstleistungen, Ausbildungsunterlagen, Checklisten und erprobte Produkte in allerhöchster Qualität bieten, die genau auf ihre Bedürfnisse zugeschnitten sind.

In this Sailing Helios episode, we kick off with an early dawn departure from the charming historic port of Peñíscola, sailing alongside the fishing fleet toward Valencia, Spain's stunning coastal city and major commercial harbour. The ancient historic centre welcomes us—but we've timed our arrival perfectly (or chaotically!) during the vibrant October festivities for Día de la Comunitat Valenciana and the Moors & Christians (Moros y Cristianos) celebrations! Harbor-area concerts blast through the night, and the next day we're hit with massive parades, people in elaborate period costumes (think medieval knights, Moorish warriors, striped robes, and more), marching bands, and thunderous "gunshots" from replica muskets/arquebuses fired right in the square—smoke everywhere, crowds loving it, no one running because it's all tradition! We explore Valencia's top sights amid the festive energy before setting sail the following morning to our next destination, Dénia. Perfect for fans of sailing adventures, Mediterranean cruising, Spanish history, cultural festivals with gunpowder displays, parades, and unexpected surprises! If you love real sailing journeys and stumbling into epic local events like Moors & Christians in Valencia, hit play!
