Jib battens getting caught on the mast can give you the rage. Here's how to address that.
Fitting a snap shackle to your mainsheet makes it extremely easy to take the top block...
We explore a third island in the enchanted archipelago of the Galapagos and make a few friends. We are soon to learn that nobody uses their real name in this part of the world. They all have nicknames and that’s what sticks.
The issue of the sticky windlass continues to haunt us but again, the beau...

Here we are taking our newly rebuilt Hobie 14 for a shake down sail in the famous Vassiliki cross shore wind.
Testing the new OS3 Evo mainsail which was working very nicely.
Unfortunately after some testing the mast cam down due to a broken forestay. This was the only boat not to have new rigging i...
Here's a short clip from testing the Hobie 14 with the OS3 Evo mainsail.
After around 20 minutes of great sailing the forestay snapped resulting in the unceremonious dumping of the pilot into the sea!
In conclusion - this was the only boat that didn't get new rigging this year - what a mi...
A follow up to the Catamaran Tacking video, the Hobie 14 is notoriously difficult to tack and even more difficult to get going once stalled.
Here we are addressing those small issues.

After an awesome overnight stay in Blue Lagoon, Comino Island/Malta we moved anchorages to avoid the crazy crowds of tourists and meet up with our friends.
Here we go over the technique for improving tacking on any type of catamaran.
It's all about the mainsheet!
You don't need to go into the tack with speed as long as you do the right thing with the mainsheet.
Sheet in hard before the tack

Mind blown. We were warned against this part of the world for the pure reason that they would fleece us for every cent we owned. This may be true, but we were very willing victims to such financial abuse.

Here we're taking a look at the jib system and spinnaker set up on our racing Tornado. There are many ways of doing it but this is what we have settled on - a conbination of what was on the boat when we got it and what we've seen on various boats from various competitions.

We have talked about keels, but we never mentioned bilge keels!
Bilge keels are sailboats with two keels that look like little legs on the sides of the boat. They are popular in extreme tidal regions of the world since they can sit on the tidal plain once the water has all left.

About 10 knots of wind, 85kg of Joyrider onboard. Here I'm taking this 13 foot ripper for a spin around the bay.
The Dragoon here uses a spinnaker with a bag system which uses a different technique to the more common chute/snuffer system.

Here's a bag that is made for the job:
or the cheaper option:
The bag used here is 30 gallons / 115 litres, I’ve found one that looks pretty much identical here:
The weight of the bag when used was around 40 kgs so well under half filled so the same bag will be good for the lighter sailor. ...
