    Enjoyed, thanks for posting. Seems like modern day sailing is turned into high tech and lots of money. You all show that with hard work and good steamship can still traditionally sail and cruise on a budget.

    What made you choose a hard side tender instead of an Avon type? Is it longevity of the hard sided ? Would you consider teaching knots and use or how to use a compass? I absolutely love your channel. Thanks for all the information you share

    • @SailingEmeraldSteel
      @SailingEmeraldSteel  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Glad you're enjoying it. We carry both types of dinghies. One is a 10' Achilles inflatable with outboard and one is the hard dinghy you mentioned. They both have their purpose. Here is a link to our vid about our dinghies. th-cam.com/video/PTrzvjdKYvE/w-d-xo.html

  • @edhowe6443
    @edhowe6443 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +14

    I wonder how many sailors actually understand how to use a compass and papers charts anymore, let alone a sextant. Electronic navigation is the accepted method used by most boaters today. This is obviously a dangerous trend, offshore. But then so many are out cruising offshore in boats never intended for offshore use. It is good to see that the art of navigation is not yet completely lost.

    • @danknox9986
      @danknox9986 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Electronic navigation has allowed many more people to sail offshore. I will never understand why people criticize it. It’s about the most reliable thing there is. The US Government and most governments around the round have given up on funding lighthouses and every person I know that knows how to navigate with a sextant uses a calculator to do the long division. Heck a gps probably costs less than a calculator and much less than volumes of site tables. In addition have you tried to buy a new full size paper chart? No one even sells them anymore. When someone asks me what they could use as a backup for gps I tell them another gps. As for people sailing boats off shore that are not intended for offshore use, I don’t even know what that means. People have successfully sailed across the Atlantic Ocean in boats I would not step foot on.

    • @dhouse-d5l
      @dhouse-d5l 11 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Yep. I crewed on a real old Barracuda, stuffed with electronics. Guy had money but he was constantly down below with a pencil, dividers and eraser plotting the back course on the paper chart....it was good to see.

    • @SailingEmeraldSteel
      @SailingEmeraldSteel  11 หลายเดือนก่อน +6

      Hi Dan, All true but only half the story told, yes gps does make life much easier for the sailor but we met a sailor in Tonga who lost all his electronics after getting hit by lightning. Personally we've experienced not being able to obtain a fix for over 24 hrs around Fiji etc.etc. So when voyaging across oceans you should at least have a general chart and a cheap plastic sextant so you can find out where you are...yes, many people cross oceans in less then safe vessels but do you know how many boats never reach harbor, how many sailors get rescued by the coast guard or spend days in a life boat? So it's like saying alot of people use drugs and nothing happens to them while forgetting how many overdosed and never see another day. Thanks for commenting! Always good to hear from you. J and S

I remember in one of your previous clips something about moving the anchor chain to a more midships location before leaving on a passage, as we're refitting with an all-chain rode, any other thoughts on how else this can be done.

    Perhaps you could put some kind of a winch to help raise the sails, since you guys aren't youngsters anymore.
