Brilllllliant voyage - Mark has an exciting new career as a passage Cinematographer/Captian! More subtitles would help as it's difficult to understand/decipher important information. Thank you for sharing and congratulations on completing your Great Circle ⛵️
Hello Mark and Marika, we regularly follow all your videos, so well done, interesting and inspiring! Your experience and calm, also in complex situation, is an example for all us sailors. I have a question for you: I have seen in many video of yours that you have been very happy with your 140 sqm S3 heavy weather symmetric SPI.. Inspired by your experience, we would like to purchase the same kind of sail to help us on our first Atlantic crossing. Which material is your S3 done with: Maxilite 150 or Stormlite 210? Your feedback would be highly valuable for us. Thank you very much in advance and my wife and myself hope to cross path with you in a nice anchorage one day
The documentation I found says 160//185m2 stormlite polyester 2.2 oz If you contact us on insta or facebook (catgreatcircle) I can send you a picture of the specs
Really nice sailing to watch when the boat is covered for coming winter. I would be interesting to hear about changes you are seeking when switching from a great boat to a new one?
We didn’t experience a lot of difference between the standard antifouling Outremer uses and the seajet 039 or the jutil? Stuff they put on in mackay. All ok.
Very nice. I love to see the motions of the boat, very gentle. I wonder though what is your experience with pitching as the bows are as sleek as my Tornado’s.
@@hansh8071 hey Hans you mean downwind or upwind. Upwind might have been just lazy downwind we are used to stick them just a little bit in to catch floating stuff first as there are no skegs.
@@CatGreatcircle i am just curious about what i can see in your vid, i get the downwind part and protecting props and rudders. but how much do you need to use them for instance on a broad reach, grtz
Is that the standard set up for winches, foresails and wheel on the 52 or just new boat and not tuned? Seems a bit short for such a boat and outremers experience? Or just watched too many of Marc’s rapid sail changes on GC 😂
I expect that the position of the winches themselves can’t be changed but that the deck layout in terms of routing of the lines can be changed. I’ve seen different setups on different 52’s
Nice job with the sailing and the video Mark! I’m curious how you would compare the 52 with your 55 and how that might inform your decisions on your next boat?
@@BoxdHound Mark, music can be great, but less can be more. There is nothing wrong with the sound of just the wind, waves, and sails. The voiceover then takes on its own importance. I talk with the experience of making the same mistake.
@rodsimmons3101 Marijke doesn’t like the camel driver either but I kind of like it and it fits nice with Morocco 🇲🇦. And don’t underestimate how difficult it is to get decent audio footage in plenty of wind and waves. I know all bad excuses, I just like the music under the images and we don’t earn a single euro with the channel so I kind of like to make the videos the way I like 😇
Terrific video. And I thought I was going to have to wait until the new boat was finished. The 52 looks great.
That vessel can move ! Looks like a great layout as wll

@@erkkif9a for sure
Thanks for ALL your Videos over the year's.
Question:
What was the last / the BEST Antifouling for you ?
Thanks in advanced.
Klaus

Nice music 😁
I just though "I wouldn't sit there". Then you said it. The furler line not reaching a winch seems like a very bad idea.
Very nice. I love to see the motions of the boat, very gentle. I wonder though what is your experience with pitching as the bows are as sleek as my Tornado’s.
Of course the bigger the boat the more motion comfort but the 52 felt really comfortable even in annoying cross waves
Is there a function for the lines wrapped around the shrouds? I noticed this on GreatCircle too. Curious to know.
Breaks the resonance
@ I was hoping you’d say that because we have lots of it on our excess 11. Going to try this right now! Thanks!
Great vid. Whaaaaaaaaaat you are building a 64????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It certainly looks like they’re gonna start building her in September 😎
Next Cat?
😀😀👍👍❤❤
Looks amazing, question: is it necessary to sail with both daggerboards down in these conditions? Grtz

On a broad reach you don’t need them at all for sailing
Ok, thanks

Mooi fillempie Marc! Wie is die derde stem toch die er steeds tussen komt?
Less annoying music would give way to the natural sounds of sailing.
There's so much awesome royalty-free music out there now to match with the vibe. Hope you have the chance to look into it sometime, Mark.
