How to be more sustainable onboard | Part 2

Sustainable cruising isn’t just about the equipment you install onboard, it’s also about how you travel and live every day. 🌿⛵ In Part 2 of our sustainable boating series, we explore ways to cruise more efficiently and comfortably: ✓ Plan passages carefully and use navigation software to maximise sailing opportunities✓ Avoid motoring into heavy wind and swell where possible✓ Respect the environment by choosing moorings over anchoring when appropriate and following marine park regulations✓ Keep your hull clean and your boat well maintained to improve efficiency and reduce fuel consumption✓ Keep sails and rigging properly tuned to make the most of wind power✓ Embrace slow travel and enjoy the journey, not just the destination✓ Use natural ventilation, fans and wind scoops to reduce reliance on air conditioning✓ Invest in quality bedding and soft furnishings to improve onboard comfort naturally A well maintained, thoughtfully operated boat is not only more sustainable, it’s often a far more enjoyable way to cruise.
