We're back after a 4 month hiatus and we splash Symphony back in the water for our second catamaran sailing season. We go through a massive list of things to do to get her ready for sailing to the Caribbean, and discover we may not have enough time to get it all done.

Hey there!

@96chevydually6.5L Год назад

Great tips on organizing and getting things ready

@SailingSymphony Год назад

Thank you!

Wow! Lots of work to do. I should apply that logic to make lists for myself too. Mandy is disabled so I'm the man and woman of the house and I let chores pile up before I tackle them. Glad y'all are posting videos again. Roll Tide! Carlos and Mandy in Bama.

My problem is getting fired up enough to get started on a list :)

Congrats on getting back to the boat! I just started using the task management platform ClickUp (I'm usually an Excel person) and after seeing your list I think it could be very useful for boat projects and making a pre-launch check list because you can group and define lists by project, have items with subitems, and set custom statuses (to do, waiting for parts, etc) AND THEN you can save it as a template to start all over again next season 😅. It's free (with a pay for more features option) and while watching I thought it might be useful to you too. Happy Sailing! ⛵

I'll check it out!

That seems a lot simpler than what I go through for winter haul out and splash in the great lakes. Plus we go through everything after winter. Usually a week of work before splash. Water, food, shelter, first aid/medications, means of defense and a plan. I get the basics done first water, food, shelter. I consider the boat shelter. Not a fan of steel rigging because catamaran flex and rigging makes hammer truss shape or A shape and only bridge tie between hulls. Nothing to stop hull spread. The saloon roof needs to be a truss tied into inner bulk heads. To stop the spreading and pinching of hulls. That way there is main bridge tie and one above it. The stiff steel rigging transfers most force to outer hulls making spreading force. I watched a few bulk head separation videos and realized its the shape and rigging. Some hammer trusses need the metal tie rod for a reason. I like the dyneema rigging because there is flex. Boats do flex.

Hey, Good to see you back. Got a question: Can you use the Starlink while sailing? Or you should stand still to use it?

We took it off the stand and it fits perfectly into a fishing rod holder mounted to a handle up on the roof. And amazingly it works very well in most sea conditions. We were getting banged around a lot last night and only had a few short outages. Pretty amazing stuff.
