I see plenty of flaws for sure. filming, video editing and sailing for that matter is by no means my strong points, however its been a fun process having a go none the less. I appreciate your kind words, Cheers
I mean its not really a couple of supermodels sailing around the world on a big beautiful orange trimeran is it.. It is nice to know however that some people are getting some entertainment out of it. Cheers!
Every sailor has those “man I wish I was sitting at home in front of a warm fire ” moments. But that’s life I guess, and sailing. But the good times are what makes it all worth while. Thanks for the journey. Nicely done.
these videos you're doing are really great ! I totally got the feel of sleeping in a washing machine, and the amazing view at sunset was really enjoyable. this is Bloody good !
Hey Chris. Great to see some content from you again. That's something I don't have on Arana. A jenniker. Could also do with a stay sail, as Arana is set up for cutter rig. Hoping to get out this summer when the coolstore closes over Christmas/New Year. Your kids are giving me some ideas. Maybe visit some anchorages I visited on Spirit Of New Zealand. Haha "Launch McLaunchface". Love it! Knew guy who used to yell...."Freighter! Get a Ferarri!" in that situation.
@@blokewithaboat there seems to he quite a fee long running sailing channels are giving up, so good on you for keeping going. I have an inner stay but no sail or lines. There is a storm jib that would probably work. I'm pretty sure the halyard is in place. I see you're very nearly at 1000 subscribers. A big milestone!
Hi, a helpful hint. Don't worry about the downhaul. Your genny sheet takes care of that. Also the other ring is for attaching the lift. That way you are supporting the end of the pole and far less likely to bend the pole. When setting up just full the penny, attach the windward sheet and leave the pole all the way forward resting against the forestry. Then when back in in cockpit unfurl and sheet in at the same gradual pace. Easy does it. Removal is the reverse action. When gibing repeat operation on the other side. Perfect control even in very strong wind. Cheers Peter.
@johnbrightman282 Yeah you're right. Had always been told it was a gennaker, however a few people now have pointed out that's its a spinnaker. Nice one. Thanks
