  • My departure on a Transatlantic passage is delayed due to the virus. I explain the major improvements to the boat I have made in preparation for this passage: new bottom, new mainsail, new standing rigging, Iridium GO, temporary solar panels…..

    As usual Patrick provides an unusual amount of great information in one short RUclips video! Quality time spent watching.👍🏼👍🏼

    I'd choose a deck stepped mast over a keel stepped mast for the following reasons:
    The bilge remains dry.
    Noise from banging halyards is not transmitted into the saloon.
    Condensation forming on the mast is not an issue.
    It doesn't act as a heatsink and conduct warmth away from the saloon.
    A keel stepped mast is obtrusive.
    Deck stepped mast avoids the possibility of a flailing spar inside the saloon should the rigging fail in an extreme event.
    I'm enjoying your videos Patrick. I think they're wonderful. Best of luck with your next venture.

    Well I’m sure Isabelle is very happy with her new outfits!! Hope you are well Patrick and that you (we!) can all get back underway soon. I have to say thank you for your sailing series, it’s been very refreshing and certainly been very enjoyable (kept me sane) while recovering from this damn “bat flu”....

    • @patricklaine6958
      @patricklaine6958  4 года назад

      I went out today for a short local sail for the first time in about two months. Unfortunately, we are not allowed to depart our local areas for the time being, and many neighboring countries are introducing 14 day quarantine periods for foreign arrivals. Hopefully, things will improve in June.......

    • @patricklaine6958
      @patricklaine6958  3 года назад

      Yes, I'm lucky. Some of my neighbors' boats sound like dragsters revving their engines when they come alongside. Mine is a modest Volvo Penta 40 HP -- in a fairly well-insulated engine compartment.

    @Safari148 3 года назад +2

    Regarding the mast sitting on the keel or as yours, This young gentleman gives a good information as to the advantages of both. Maybe you know him, but his insight of sailing is good. Hope to see more of your sailing soon ;-)

  • @crismoore6811
    @crismoore6811 4 года назад

    Dear Patrick, hope you are isolating and finding enjoyable things to do. I am fine with being alone. not much change there. Am in FL and we have no tests here which is somewhat upsetting. Floridians party and infect each other. 4 million seniors stay inside. Anyway, I enjoy my garden, reading, cooking, doing house stuff I usually dont do, writing some 'positive' short stories, talking to friends on phone. I sure hope you and your family are faring well. cheers and good health. cris

    • @patricklaine6958
      @patricklaine6958  4 года назад

      Many thanks. Am sitting quietly at home (going crazy). The marina is a 2 minute drive from my home, but access is forbidden. I'm not complaining; just hoping this passes quickly. Stay safe!

    Hi Patrick, in the case of our Freedom sailboat, all the way through the keel, the carbon fiber mast needs no stays…thus no standing rigging. Our deck and bow is much cleaner. Think of a telephone pole or a radio station tower which need support or guide wires.

    • @patricklaine6958
