    Where did you relocate your head black tank? In that location on my 393 I have the black water tank there. Love seeing how you have refitted your 393. I love mine.

    • @WhenSailing
      @WhenSailing  3 года назад

      Hi Todd, we dont have one in this head, its more a toothbrushing and washing room😜 also the shower got deactivated and we lowered the pump pipe so we have an additional bildge, sometimes water from the anchorlocker gets in there and it does not flow off…awesome boat🥰🤩

    • @toddf9350
      @toddf9350 3 года назад

      Ahh. That’s interesting my 393 has 2 black water tanks one in each head. So the front head isn’t hooked up? Or does it go to a different location for your black water tank? I hate that tank location. So wonder how yours is set up. I had a bow thruster installed under that location and under my anchor locker. It is a 2 day projector get to the bow thruster

    Wow, now I've seen everything. No wonder you are massively increasing power capacity over there. Whatever happened to putting things into a net bag and towing behind the boat? Anyway, fun video - and interesting to see you in the Sydney Morning Herald.

    • @WhenSailing
      @WhenSailing  3 года назад

      ahaha it all makes sense now right?😅 you should see the boat vibrating when the washing cycle comes to an end😅 aaaa yeaa that was quite a surprise for us too😋🕺🏻💃🏻 awesome you found us there🏝⛵️🙏

      @@WhenSailing Oh that's so funny. Imagine seeing you both coming into port, about to dock and then have to stop because you were about to go onto spin dry! Something I'v often wondered about was the hull thickness of these French built, Med cruisers (I think For Tuna is one of these) because I've heard people comment that, on some of them, you can actually see the hull flexing. If that is happening here then watch out - you need to stop that!

    Hey hey! Awesome video! I just saw that it s almost 2 years old. Did you upgrade your inverter already? Or do you still using it only in marinas?

    @Supasarge Год назад

    Thanks so much for the video - super helpful 😍. Brilliant idea to supply it with heated water to save batteries. When running like this - you mentioned the load was around 400W (instead of 1400W) - do you happen to know what the peak load is (and how long it's at peak)? We have an 800W Victon inverter which will cope with peak power (of up to 1500W .. but not for long!). We also intend to supply a Daewoo Mini with pre-heated water but I'm keen to know whether the peak load goes above around 400W (and if so for how long)?

    • @WhenSailing
      @WhenSailing  Год назад +1

      hey :) glad we could help. we are not completely sure about the peak, but there are definitely some peaks at the end when it spins. but that’s probably 20-30secs for each spin

    Hello guys. Great video, thanks for share. Can you tell me about how is the water consumption? Thankssss

    • @WhenSailing
      @WhenSailing  3 года назад

      Hi there⛵️ thanks! water consumption varies between the cycles you set up but mostly around 30 liters per short washing cycle at 40 degrees:)

    A few things I noticed in this video:
    You are totally spoilt by having so many lines running back to the cockpit, that's not fair.
    When you part-furl that genoa, do you also adjust the position of the sheet car - I'm sure I saw that leach flapping with more furling.
    I think it's more that the wind tends to speed up as it passes through gaps between the islands, rather than younbeing sheltered at all. Not a major issue but thinking that way also helps with planning.
    Lastly, I saw 0.0 on an instrument and on the chart plotter. What has broken? Have you maybe lost your water speed indicator?

    • @WhenSailing
      @WhenSailing  3 года назад

      You are so right, we basically only need to go forward for the pole, gennaker and the sheet cars;) they are still manual😅 yea we learned that the hard way, now we know too😛 was quite a rough sail at 4 am darkness with clouds, rain and 40 knots, washed over a few times with waves😆 our speed through water needs to be cleaned more regularly😆 we rarely use it though😅

    • @ianb4801
      @ianb4801 3 года назад

      @@WhenSailing Without water speed, you can't know true wind, just apparent wind. It helps knowing both. In practice, I have apparent on the wind instrument and true on the plotter - then I get a clearer picture of tides, currents and windage.

    • @WhenSailing
      @WhenSailing  3 года назад

      yes totally agree with you☺️ if we have longer sails we clean it & depending on the weather we expect:) but mostly on our short ones we simply enjoy the sailing and we can choose the conditions we are sailing in mostly so apparent is good enough😅😛
