@stackasaurus Год назад

A man with so many skills I consider you a genius far above average, engineer, vessel captain, stainless steel welder, sand blaster, industrial painter, forklift operator, fitter, inventor among many other qualifications. Your wife also absorbed some skills, she surprised me with the details that were assembled inside the vessel. If you can answer, I would like to know how much you spent on the boat and how much more did you spend on renovating the vessel? What was the total work time for the boat to go into the water? I subscribed to the channel you are amazing!!!

Hello and Welcome. I was always saying this when was young. Never wait for anything as we do not live with an expiration date. We never know if we leave the earth this second or when we are 91 (my Father’s age). I feel young when some of our followers label is as “kids”. So summary is do not wait. Capt w

@coolhand66 Год назад

I like that you have a swim step built in the back that is really smart one of my friends said before you ever buy a boat especially a sailboat see if you can get on it if you get thrown off it and if you can't then it's definitely not a vessel you want to buy

@kevnwarriner8819 Год назад

If the weather is going to be rough it's recommended that you should wear a harness attached to a lifeline so you're less likely to thrown overboard and it's a good idea to leave a rope tied to a cleat if you are swimming and don't have a swim step or leave a rope ladder hanging over the side to help you climb aboard, but if the weather was really bad you're not going to be able to climb back aboard if you went overboard, if you weren't knocked unconscious by hitting the water you might be stunned and by the time you realised where you were and got to the surface you would be quite a distance behind the Yacht or expedition vessel and would be relying on the other crew members to spot you and turn the vessel around and pick you up, there's no way you would be swimming fast enough to catch up with the vessel and if you're going out in a dinghy it's a good idea to wear a life jacket just in case a wave hit it wrong and capsized it, or threw you overboard but the dinghy's throttle is released when you let go so the dinghy isn't going very far away from you, sorry for the length of my reply but I hope this answers your question and why a swim step isn't going to help if you were thrown overboard

@boommikenj Год назад

Or... Break Out A Tool! 😂

@darrylcox8267 Год назад

Very cool, comfortable and obviously safe motor sailboat. I’m not sure I’d call any motor sailing yacht self sufficient, because obviously you’re burning through a lot more fuel that has to be resupplied at port than a fiberglass sailboat. Still, all boats are a trade off depending on how you want to be able to live on them. There is no perfect boat, only the best boat for you.

@DawnHunters Год назад

Darryl You are correct but we have filled up 1.5 years ago. Still have over 1/2 in fuel onboard. When motor sailing the motor is at idle to match water speed over the prop to provide power between wind variations. Summary is we spend 90% time st anchor and the sun provides all the energy. Have spent more money on gas for the dingy in 12 months than anything other than food. Thank you for your comment Caot W and Iana

@darrylcox8267 Год назад

@@DawnHunters That is awesome. I was under the impression that you yachted primarily with engine power and the sails we just a couple of knots assistance?

@artsmith103 Год назад

I was also curious about monthly diesel use. With that fuel report, how many miles have you traveled monthly or annually?

@vanessabryan786 Год назад

Hi Clive s.steel Womble hiding here … love the tank boat .. Typical N Atlantic Dutch built vessel. If you ever need more solar at high latitudes there’s a system called a FLIN sail solar collector . You hoist it and angle the panels to best catch the sun and no shadows to disrupt the output. Will, the window system is pure James Wharram😂 The Dragon girl the sea GoatCapt and the whole muppet show for company.❤ Anya find yourself a Womble character . Combined HPV panels are far more efficient and Last longer in hot weather… They also can produce a lot of hot water that can be stored and used after dark. Will can you run regen from your electric limp home/ side motor under sail?
