Рет қаралды 23,214
4 жыл бұрынSailing from Majuro Atoll in the Marshall Islands to Kosrae in Micronesia. 25 knots of wind and confused seas between the atolls of the RMI doesn't stop me from chopping a coconut with a machete.

Hi, I’m Markus Pukonen and this is my Adventure Travel Vlog Series. I am travelling around the planet without ever using motorized transport. I started this journey in Toronto, Canada in July of 2015 and intend to circumnavigate back to where I started.
In this weekly youtube series (Every Sunday at 4PM EST) I will share my day to day experiences of what it’s like to travel around the earth under my own power (with help from some wind and currents too!). Loads of epic adventure videos I’m happy to share with you.

SPOILER ALERT:!!
I started the journey in a canoe and have since trimaraned, hand cycled, pogosticked, tricycled, skiied, rafted, kayaked, SUPed, rowed, bicycled, sailed, walked, and danced half way around the planet.

I think she's a great boat and would be perfect for a smaller sailor. If I was doing any longer term living on board I would want more head room and longer bunks. Cheers!

@@Routesofchange Another great video. What is the headroom in the cabin and the bunks? I'm 5'11 and considering an A30. Would you say that that's pushing it?
@Routesofchange 4 жыл бұрын
You'll be fine with the bunks and headroom might be just perfect. Either way, you should climb in one ASAP to see how she feels.

Sadly I wont be able to sail her but reading online i heard they're originally tender but stiffens up once heeled 15 degrees or so. Just love the boat so its great to see you crossing oceans with it.

I have an A30, and have probably surfed at 8, so 10 might be possible - but could be dangerous, too. The rudder is too far forward. Better is reduce sail, and "surge" safely and comfortably at 7+. I don't like downwind or upwind in a blow on the boat. Reaching is a joy, and with a clean bottom you will amaze some much bigger and faster boats with the speed. One of sweetest sailing boats built.
