Hi Bernhard, I wanted to let you know I have just finished installing the Provane on my Aloha 34 and this video was VERY helpful in getting it properly set up and I was able to have my first successful experience using it this afternoon for a couple of hours, thanks to your video. The manual from Imre is helpful, but seeing your video and the actual functioning of the windvane through the different stages of setting it up make it much easier to understand. Thanks!

Hi Bernhard, schöner Film. 👍 Aber sag mal, das Steuerrad der Carmen, war das normal leichtgängig oder schwergängig? Bin 2022 mit ihr unterwegs gewesen und als ich das erste mal daran drehen wollte, dachte ich, dass es irgendwie fixiert ist oder so. MYD Sailing zeigte sich sehr uneinsichtig - seither mache ich einen Bogen um sie.

Ich muss gestehen, dass ich mich jetzt nicht mehr erinnern kann, wie das war. Entweder es ist gut gegangen, oder ich habe es damals einfach ignoriert, weil man auf Charterbooten immer ein paar Mängel tolerieren muss ;)

Great video Bernhard, can you please tell few words about your boat and sails you beeen using.
@bhsailor3 ай бұрын
Thank you! The boat is a Belliure Endurance 35 built in 1983, traditional long keel boat. There is a video (kzfaq.info/get/bejne/mcyibNRlsMC2kWg.html) where I talk about the boat. The sails are from a hybrid material called Hydranet which is said to be bullt-proof. It is tri-radial cut and I'm very happy with them. All sails are new. I bought them specifically for this project since the original sails which came with the boat where pretty worn-out.

Es zeigt, wie schwer es ist so etwas umzusetzen, die Gelegenheiten auch in schlechteren Zeiten zu nutzen und es letztlich dann eben doch zu tun. Da kann man sehr viel lernen. Der Rest ist super interessant und ich freue mich schon auf die kommenden Episoden! Schöne Grüße aus Vorarlberg und Danke für deine Zeit, die du da reinsteckst.

Very educative explanation and demonstration of the vind vane. Thanks! IMHO: What causes the boat to head up by itself, especially in gusts, is the heel. The heel causes the forces acting on the sails and those acting on the hull/keel to be moved apart from each other in the horizontal plane. This causes a moment turning the boat towards the wind. An imbalanced sail plan also may lead to weather helm, but the strong tendency to head up comes from the heel. This is why you want to keep a boat as upright as possible. @5:05 you say that the vind vane should not try to permanently counter balance... Well, of course the boat should be balanced, the sails be well trimmed, no heavy bias on the main rudder, but then the job of the vind vane is exactly this: Counterbalancing any forces which take the boat off course, it has to counterbalance its tendency constantly wanting to head up. A note on stalling sails: When pointing too high, the sails get depowered, but they do not stall. The wind just rushes along the canvas without generating lift. The sails are stalled when pointing too low or when oversheeted. Then the laminar flow breaks down, becomes turbulent, you get very little lift and excessive stress on the rigg and a lot of heel.
@bhsailor8 ай бұрын
Yes, you are absolutely right with everything you say here. Heel is a major issue. That's why reefing is important and you may be even faster with properly reefed sails than without.
@bhsailor8 ай бұрын
And "to stall" means IMO that the aerodynamic flow collapses. And this can very well happen if it points to high to (or almost into) the wind. But probably this is just a matter of you using the right vocabulary.
@quantenschaum8 ай бұрын
@@bhsailor Maybe it's a question of how "to stall" is defined. But in this case stalling means that the angle of attack is too big AFAIK. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stall_%28fluid_dynamics%29

@dreamtimesv8 ай бұрын
Thanks Bernhard for the nice clear demonstration. Everything you covered I have experienced in my use of this PV. I have the add on device to the shaft which allows me to make directional adjusts using a cord. As my yacht is a centre cockpit, and I also am predominantly a solo sailor, this item is very useful. I hard anti-foul the rudder each season and remove during winter months when not doing passages. Only issue I have is the drag on manoeuvring in tight spaces such as marinas. So as I do a-lot of day sails I remove the rudder until a passage is planned. How do you find it with close quarters manoeuvres? Mine is off centred like yours.
@bhsailor8 ай бұрын
I will cover mine with antifouling as well but this is the 1st season. I didn't think about that before. And yes, I can feel it while maneuvering as well. But this is a full keel boat which is by default not so easy to handle and I have a bow thruster. So I'm used to it ;)

I have had this PV for almost 2 years now and have worked a lot with Imre on early feedback and suggestions. I also worked with him to write the user manual. It’s good to see a user video, i have many videos of my own usage but never made them public. I sail the southern coast of NSW Australia which is the Tasman sea. Its a great product, i have it installed like on your boat, our boats are the same age. Imre was amazing at designing its mounting using measurements and photos I sent. We got it fitted perfectly. Im looking forward to seeing your in action videos. Happy to share mine if you are interested. But your experience over such extended miles and conditions interests me greatly. Best, Mark, SV Dreamtime

Es ist so friedlich und so still. Nur das Meer, das Boot und du. Und du musst dich um niemanden kümmern, niemand bei Laune halten, niemand fragen ob er/sie auch einen Kaffee will. Du musst auf niemand aufpassen, dass er sich verletzt, oder sonst irgend etwas passt. Niemand macht "lustige" Witze, niemand sudert, niemand ist seekrank, den du bemitleiden musst, niemand lässt sein Geschirr und Zeug herumliegen. Das "normale" Leben ist so übervoll mit unnötigem Zeug. Hier draußen ist es so schön still. Einer der letzten Orte auf dieser Welt, wo noch Frieden herrscht.
