STORM MARTINHO hit our new boat! Big [Ep. 87]

March 28, 2025 by Sailing Supernova | Language: EN Play Time: 00:33:05 | SAILING YOUTUBERS

A WARNING was issued for holidaymakers.
Storm Martinho hit Portugal hard causing huge damage.

We had been on our new to us boat for just over a week when the storm hit.
We didn't understand how big it was going to be but we did everything we could to save our new boat from heavy damage.


If you are interested in buying our previous boat, Supernova, a beautiful fully kitted out Prout Quasar 50, please send us an email at:
sailingsupernova@gmail.com

Supernova has tons of upgrades. 4kw solar, 2600 AH of lifpo4 lithium batteries. Full electric galley, watermaker, 2 years new electronics including auto pilot, radar and 16 inch chartplotter. Custom dinghy lift where you can leave the engine on (comes with 10.5 rib with almost new 20hp motor), new mainsail and jib, 14 foot by 7 foot custom hard top, dive compressor, two electric toilets with 2x 100 litre blackwater tank, put in 3 new fridge/freezer units, new prop shafts, 8 new underwater lights.

We took the bottom down to gel-coat and put 6 layers of barrier coat on before new bottom paint (that was 3 years ago) and we replaced every through hull. We installed two new prop shafts and aquadrives.

It has 4 staterooms, one oversized queen bed, one queen bed and to double beds with 4 heads but we are using 2 heads as just storage.

You can live remote on this boat for months and months without needing to resupply (3 fridge/freezers, crazy amount of solar and giant lithium batteries etc).

It still needs some cosmetic work inside and a couple of things here and there, but could cross oceans right now as is.

We love this boat but we are aware we aren't going to get back anywhere near the money we put into her. If you're interested, let us know... we are very open to discuss any reasonable offers.

Sailing Supernova

Hey, we are Yvette and Darcy. Join us on our trip around the world. We go to some of the most remote places in our newly refit 1986 50ft Prout Quasar catamaran. We release weekly up to date real-time videos every Friday, about all the adventures of the previous week - including free diving, fishing, scuba, spear fishing, travel, daily life, exploring and of course sailing! If we are in an area near you then let us know, we would love to say hi. It would be awesome if you could subscribe, comment and like any videos you enjoy. We both work hard and put a bunch of effort in to making the weekly videos, but at the end of the day we feel lucky to be doing what we love and what we have always dreamed of. Hope to see you out on the water one day or on a beach near you!
