Sailing on a Catalina 42, checking out the sails and the islands Ep 6
September 09, 2020 by Sailing Intermission | Language: EN Play Time: 00:11:53 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
We’re sailing. Karen is looking great in her bikini. Went out on Saturday with little wind. Sunday the air picked up. Used our Kobalt drill and Winch Bit to make our winches electric. Call me lame but it’s nice to use when raising the main or even trimming the genoa. Tried sailing to the islands to see what was happening on the Labor Day weekend. Not a lot of wind on that day so motored halfway. There were lots of boats and even a seaplane. Adjusted the Dutchman once again, still may not be tuned well, but does make flaking the mainsail easier.
We eventually saw up to 7 kts close hauled with about 15 deg of lean in 15 kt air. The mainsail is a little tired. The fixed prop slows us down a bit. Perhaps a feathering or folding is in the future.

Sailing Intermission
Featuring the sailboat Isabella, a Super Mikado 56 made by the French shipyard CNSO. Sailing, partying, dancing, cooking, and sometimes pushing the limits. This sailboat had been neglected for some time when she was purchased. Lots of cleaning, sanding, refinishing, new lines, refrigerator, pumps, water heater parts, whole boat water filters, bow thruster, lighting, fuel filters, instruments, air conditioning, etc.... Some of the fun with refitting a sailboat is to be able to do economical but quality improvements. Elbow grease saves a lot of money, watching for sales, knowing when substitutions can be made that will last, and of course enjoying the final product. We sail, fish (haha), dance, fly the drone, sometimes wear bikinis, DIY, ride the motorcycle, listen to great music, and enjoy life. Older sailors don't have a clew when to quit; they just keep lubing their winches.
