    Kate great job in the galley - working on the way making excellent food is not easy. Proposal for a new cooking show - Gourmet cooking with Kate in 40 knots of wind in Sweet Ruca, first episode "Kates view on the French Classics Bouillabaisse and Tarte Tatin.

    for bread making or pizza crust making....I've found it best if you water to mix with the yeast is around 110 degrees F. dough always doubles in 1 hour, I use a thermometer to arrive at a good temp

    I like your method of sailing on a mono hull but a catamaran has a very different sail plan and no spinnaker poles. I think sometime in 2025 I'll be starting to build a Cyber 48 and if we ever end up seeing each other in an anchorage, we can discuss the difference and take you for a sail so that you can experience that difference if your interested in doing something like that.

    Please this comment is provided purely at your request for feedback on running square with two headsails> Guys - just a thing - when you are flying sails off a pole ( particularly, really good sails as you have) the most destructive thing you can do is not properly suspend the pole - with a topper and a kicker. leech curl ultimately destroys a sail, headsails specifically that is. by allowing the pole to bounce as the sail loads and unloads - will only increase the rate with which the sail wears and stretches the leech. (essentially the difference in static load vs dynamic shock loading)

      Homemade Breads a very great way to save money and avoid all the garbage that goes into processed bread. Every sailor knows how to make bread lol the ingredients in bulk are way cheaper and sometimes it’s all you have to eat on long sails lol

    The boat looked like it handled being pulled along by the bow just fine , a bit like sailing a catboat the only issue is the keel never locks in and lifts so it a bit of a rocking horse side to side.

    I just wanted to let you know that it is sometimes a good idea to cook with more clothes on especially when cooking with fluids on boats. Ask me how I know....Anyway bread is pretty safe, but soups, coffee, stews...I suggest you folks put on more clothes even if it is a million degrees in the boat. Anything that might come out of the container and stick to you is bad news.

    • @adrena45

    Nice sailing , downwind fix the boom with uphauler and line to front and back so the end of the boom stays fixed. Use the end of the boom of the main to fix the other sail the same way, Foresee easy way to loosen quickly if needed. Always enjoining your trips ❤ Grts from Belgium

    Hey guys was just watching this after running across it and wanted to tell you an observation at 12:35-39 minutes/seconds into video the shot of your life raft as you’re filming to stern, it appears to not be secured completely into its holders please double check it! You wouldn’t want to loose it if n rough seas then need it or have the expense of replacing it! It looks like it’s slipping down and out of the binder. Otherwise nice you’re experimenting with different sails etc! French Polynesia is a beautiful place to sail but you need a year to see it all lol! Your dog is beautiful but very very uncomfortable without full length deep cushion under it on the bench in cockpit ! Get some 4-6 inch foam and a nice sheepskin cover for it that zips on and off for washing it’ll keep her/him cool and cushion his/her elbows!! And tip on the bread not rising, wheats that way but wrap it in a dish cloth on the counter instead of leaving it in the pot with a lid !! Great job on the sail out of the pass! DDW sailing is the best lol but yes can be total chop!!

    I left marina Taina on June 4th this year. That was my fourth visit. The marina and Papeete in general is looking very scruffy & run down. The attitude toward cruisers from some of the locals is hostile. I wont be returning. So much of the South Pacific is great to visit...no more Tahiti for me.
