Thank you! It was a fast sail 😎 Thanks again for watching.

My son who has, all of a sudden, shown much interest in the the Swedish lifestyle, told me that they have no sense of humour and a social skillset that suits him well, avoiding passersby. Well, I find it to be quite the contrary with you guys. Very humorous and entertaining!!

Congratulations on the longest passage, and thank you for taking the time to publish videos. I am particularly curious to see how high she can point in various wind conditions. Although I agree with your strategy under these circumstances, it doesn't make the best VMG to point high always. I think the flicker is the hz on the camera, though I am not sure. Furthermore, can I humble suggest you add a multimplexer to your NMEA backbone so that you have a laptop backup for navigation, have a look at one of our recent videos why. KR. Crew of Carry on.

Thank you. For the pointing we would guess that 42 apparent is good maybe down to 38 but then probably loose to much speed. But we have to try it more in different winds before we can say. We have been told that tacking is punishment so we try to avoid it 😃 For the computer we have one as back up with a separate GPS and Open CPN and all the worlds charts. Kind of like it that they are not connected. And then all other phones and iPads that you can navigate with. We are also trying to learn celestial but we are not there yet. 😀 We will have a look. Fair winds ⛵️

Nice sail guys, she looks super comfortable in those seas and wind. Was there any slamming of the hull in the waves? She seemed pretty gentle through the waves to me. I would be happy for that doghouse too, super safe and comfortable. Dartmouth is a great place. Andy UK

Thank you. It was almost no slamming, we were surprised how smooth she was. And yes we liked Dartmouth very much.

Great video. Out of interest do you think you would be able to sleep in the master cabin on passage in those conditions, or would you retreat to the aft cabin?

@bushpoint

Thank you. Even though she rides smoothly, she is "heaving" so we would not sleep in the master cabin on passage. You will probably see our sea berth in the next video, crossing the channel again.

Stunning boat, just came across your channel. Screen flicker is probably due to a too fast shutter speed, dry dropping to below 1/50 as this will be below the htz of the screen

Boreal is my definite dream boat. I'm wondering about the upwind angles. You are trucking along fine on 53 AWA, but can you push it past 40 AWA or, say, 45 true?

@bushpoint

We are not the best sail trimmers but would say that we can do 38 AWA but would prefer 42 AWA. Cheers J&F

About the flickering screen, it might the shutter speed of your camera. If it is then it’s too fast. Later when the screen was not flickering the light was lower and so your shutter speed slowed down. I guess your camera is automatic. If you can’t adjust it then you just have to live with it.

@@bushpoint one trick used to lower shutter speed in bright light is to use a neutral density filter. VidCams have them built in and they are easy to employ. SLRs and mirrorless cameras generally don’t have any and so you need to buy a set that screw onto the lens or use a mounting system. That is if you care that much.
