  • After all these years of resisting the urge, in the blink of an eye we decided to get Flexiteek installed on Let's Dance. This is a short movie of the installation process.

    greetings: i first saw an installation of flexiteek on the Zatara sailing channel.It seems to be catching on and congratulations on your new install. It was nice of you to prepare a traditional snack for the crew. That goes a long way in cementing social acceptance between cultures. Hats off to the both of you

    I love flexiteek and would definitely have it on my boat. Looks great. Congratulations! I just sailed 350 miles from La Rochelle to Falmouth on a friends Catana 42. My first sailing passage and I loved it! Not much wind so had to motor sail quite a bit but still it was a great trip. Cats are the best! Both a Sailing and a motor boat and they sit so flat on the water. Yes they hobby horse a bit in waves but you have to take the small rough with a lot of smooth!! I am hooked on cat sailing!! Love to you both. Xx

    You picked the best color combination. Love the way it looks on Tom C.'s Saba (shout-out to my friend on SV Ghost). It is very hot underfoot when exposed to the sun for a few hours, so be careful when stepping on the sugar scoops to reel in a fish and when jumping on- and off-board. Also, keep an eye on the glue; from what I have observed on other boats even the best installations have problems with sections shifting and bubbling. Other than that, the only problem is the hair and dirt that accumulates around the edges. Did they bevel the caulk around the edges or just run a bead around each section?

    • @LetsDanceSailing
      @LetsDanceSailing  2 года назад

      Thanks Doug, yes we love the colour, look and feel. One of the reasons we haven’t gone down this path before is because of the heat, we have experienced it underfoot in the sun and it certainly gets hot but we decided the trade off was worth it for this boat. They did a bead around each section and already understand the collection of dirt but happy to keep that clean on a regular basis, cheers.

    How much weight does it add?

    • @LetsDanceSailing
      @LetsDanceSailing  2 года назад

      That’s one of flexiteek’s advantages over similar products. It weighs 4.5kg per square metre. For our cockpit they started with about 18sqm of product, finished with net approx 15sqm installed.
