Hi, I have watched this video 8 or 9 times and have a question. Do you think she is too small for a liveaboard couple to go cruising, this will be our first boat my wife is 5ft and also will be new to sailing, I am trying to follow Lin and Larry pardy's advice of "go small, go cheap, go now" but in your valued opinion is she too small? Thanks in advance.

I owned No Rival a few years back and lived on her in London and sailed her and East Coast and to Holland, France then the Med via Spain and Portugal and then back via the french canals and can vouch for her sea keeping in a big blow and big seas. Intention was to sail her to the caribbean but couldn't afford a sat phone in those days to do the ARC. Nice to see she is still being looked after as have many happy memories of the voyages we took.

i know you got a lot of flame in the comments, but sometimes you have to work with what you got. im in a similar situation with my sabre 30. i have no other choice but to do this type of install. i will back it up with a piece of starboard , but probably use the additional hardware like you did. weighing and setting should always be done with boat engine assist anyhow. i have never backed on a hook to set while using only the windlass to hold the strain. same with popping it from the bottom. it is always proper to make off to a cleat and use the boat to pop the anchor. the windlass should be there for one thing only- to pull up the rode . and for this , your install should be plenty

Think about it. The SWL of anchor chain is in excess of 1,000 lbs (depending on size), with the actual breaking strain multiples of that. The maximum pull of most windlass's is in the high hundreds to the thousands of lbs.......and yet you have that system secured by a couple of cabinet hinges? No professional would have ever signed off on such a design. OK, i understood that in the text books, the big loads supposedly occur only when at anchor (when tied off to a cleat), but real boating life is never that straightforward, such as in attempting to free a snagged anchor or managing both motoring and raising the anchor, single handed, in a blow. I had my windlass secured to a fully glassed 1/2" thick foredeck (no balsa), as per the manufacturers recommendations and am now in the proess of adding a 1" thick aluminium backing plate, as it proved insufficiently strong (ie was beginning to pull the bolt heads through the fibreglass, dedpite oversized washers). In summry, all the worst advice I have ever received, in boating, has come from so-called professionals who and all the best advice from seasoned sailors, whose only motive is to share what has probably happened to them, or a friend, in the past.

There are so many better options than the typical giant racing dinghy with Bermudan sloop combination. I'm a fan of the modern cambered junk, which jibes very gently, as well, reefs in ten seconds and also single-hands with no trouble. The Nonsuch hull with a junk rig is probably an ideal combination!

this looks like not enough mechanical advantage to me. the block attaches to the mast forward of the midpoint, and then moves forward still more. It doesn't look very thick either, 8mm? and it's just a 2:1 purchase (ignoring the other block that goes up again even closer to the mast, just to clear that hatch. I think this will put a massive strain on the cabin top, once it gets windy. Although, it's been two years since this video was made so I guess you know now. I came here because I have been installing "german mainsheet" on my boat, but my understanding was that "german" referred to having two mainsheets (and no traveller) you sheet in on the windward sheet and then use the leeward one to control twist (something like that)

Hi Chris hope you are well! Sorry for the lack of videos, we had a baby at the start of the year and that’s rather slowed production at home but thankfully not sailing! Funnily enough we set off at lunchtime today as my mission this week is to get to the solent to spend a week or so there. Tonight we will be in Ramsgate and hopefully tomorrow Brighton or maybe Eastbourne. I will have to let you know how we get on! Your trip sounds fantastic and I wish you well, please keep me posted - I’d probably say stop Ramsgate, Eastbourne/Brighton, Haslar & Portland depending on how long you want to spend for each passage. The Shell Channel Pilot book is a great addition to any library if you don’t have it already.

The spreaders look very swept-back, which must have an impact on squaring off the mainsail downwind, esp.with full width battens. Is that a 2:1 spinnaker halyard?
@sailingsummerbreeze3 жыл бұрын
Yes you are correct on both counts! You can’t let out the main too far before it touches the spreaders, so more frequent gybing is probably needed but at least she goes fast! Yep spinny halyard is 2:1 purchase which makes hoisting the code zero etc a breeze 😌
