  • I provide a tour of my new boat, an RM 890+ named 'Jenna' after my two daughters. I cast off lines for destinations North, and cross some AIS equipped fishing buoys along the way, before reaching my first intermediate destination of Dingle Ireland.

    A cross-laminated plywood boat. At least here in Finland there have been such boats since 1970. Today they are rare. There is only 1 flaw in the construction material that is worth remembering, never break the frame either by yourself or because of someone else. Repairing cross-laminated plywood is really laborious, or even impossible. Fortunately, you are sailing in deep waters and not here in the Finnish archipelago. it is worth coming here, the archipelago is absolutely wonderful and there are plenty of service ports, but there are also natural ports if you want to be at peace. The sea freezes in winter, so we docked the boats, but from May to September there is great sailing weather

    When the title said "North", I got excited and thought you're coming north, as in Finland. I assume you know Laine is a Finnish surname. If you ever have the chance to experience the Finnish Archipelago between Åland and Turku in the summer, you should. It comprises thousands of islands, small island communities - a world of its own, unlike anything you'll see anywhere else in the world. Completely unique.

    • @patricklaine6958

    What a wonderful surprise! I seriously missed your videos. Thank you for adding another one to the collection. Your journeys definitely helped me to decide that I will buy a sailing boat after retiring. Unfortunately in Germany we work until 67, so for me it is another five years to wait.
    I happily will add another word for the "white caps" encyclopedia: in German language they're called foam crowns (Schaumkronen).
    I wish you a nice trip and happy return.

    Great new boat -- glad you decided to bring your camera on this voyage, and as a result added us as crew. Glad to be aboard. I had not heard of AIS on fishing lines ... sounds like a great idea. I have seen AIS targets on bridges and buoys so it's no surprise that additional uses are being found for them.
    While discussing AIS I thought I'd tell you something I found out a few years ago, and have confirmed that it is still the case. Raymarine MFD's (we have an Axiom Pro) have a limit of 100 targets -- displaying the closest 100 it detects. On San Francisco Bay there are many AIS units and easily more than 100 near me. I listen to VTS (vessel traffic service) while in the central Bay and if I hear of a ship that might be an issue for me I look for it on the AIS. Sometimes they don't show up because there are more than 100 AIS targets nearer to me. But large ships travel fast and .... anyway, on my latest communications with Raymarine a couple weeks ago they did say that they are looking at increasing that limit. Couldn't be soon enough for me. Apparently other systems also have limits, read of one that is 240 targets.
    You very likely know of this limit, but thought I'd mention it in case you hadn't run into it yet. The mention is buried in the middle of the Lighthouse manual.

    • @patricklaine6958
      @patricklaine6958  Год назад +1

      I was not aware of the ais limit. Thanks. An important consideration if you sail in very dense maritime waters. Cheers.
