Vendredi 27 mars 2015. La saison des Langoustes tire à sa fin, plus que kek jours.

Snowpetrel Sailing: Snow Petrel..The boring details
http://snowpetrelsailing.blogspot.com/p/snow-petrelthe-boring-details.html
Snow Petrel.The boring details. Snow Petrel.The boring details. I bought Snow Petrel (then named Obsession) with the plan in mind to sail to Norway and Spitsbergen via cape horn, and maybe then to Antarctica. She was always envisioned as an intermediate boat and not the perfect boat. A proud new owner with alot of work to do. Reiger in Tasmania. Photo Greg Hockey. Cape horn, southern ocean and ice, 26 foot fiberglass boats aren't recommended, its possible (Jarle in his little Berserk. An interior that's ...

Snowpetrel Sailing: That dreaded POX
http://snowpetrelsailing.blogspot.com/2012/09/that-dreaded-pox.html
Snow Petrel.The boring details. Monday, September 24, 2012. I think I have contracted that dreaded scourge of boat owners. I have all the symptoms, excessive time on the computer, eagerly awaiting emails and attachments. Carefully scrutinizing picture after picture of boats, a dreamy look on my face, with screwed up sketches of possible modifications strewn around. Anyway look on the bright side, it could be worse, it could be 10 foot-itis or even 20 foot-itis. Fast and easy to handle. See how the top ba...

Snowpetrel Sailing: A dinghy to row. Galifreya
http://snowpetrelsailing.blogspot.com/2015/01/a-dinghy-to-row-galifreya.html
Snow Petrel.The boring details. Monday, January 26, 2015. A dinghy to row. Galifreya. Most dinghies today aren't designed to row, Even ones that you might think are. I was lucky to grow up with two nice rowing dinghies and no outboard motors. Part of the decision to go for a bigger boat was to be able to get a bigger dinghy on deck that will row much better than the 8 footer on Snow petrel. I can fit a 12 footer onto Snow Petrel II. I chose to pull the quarters up to reduce wetter surface and transom dra...

Snowpetrel Sailing: Books
http://snowpetrelsailing.blogspot.com/p/books.html
Snow Petrel.The boring details. My father has been busy writing a few books. One of them about our trip to Antarctica. And another kids book similar Arthur Ransome's "Swallows and Amazons" and set down here in Tasmania. There is also lots of stuff on his website. About us as kids. On New Zealand Maid, all slightly embarrassing. But that's what parents are for aren't they. Snow Petrel" is available as a hard cover, and "Those Snake Island kids" in paperback. As are both books.

Snowpetrel Sailing: A new boat!
http://snowpetrelsailing.blogspot.com/2012/11/a-new-boat.html
Snow Petrel.The boring details. Tuesday, November 27, 2012. Like a hermit crab for a while now I have been feeling like I have outgrown my shell, she feels too small and not exciting enough. Well I have just bought a new boat, or at least I will have in a few days when the bank processes my money transfer! In my last post I had a list of a bunch of desired features of a new boat, most of which did not make for a cheap boat. Looking back over the list. Slightly red faced). Yes so I am told. Well that's th...

Snowpetrel Sailing: Slab reefing...Scratching the Surface.
http://snowpetrelsailing.blogspot.com/2011/02/slab-reefingscratching-surface.html
Snow Petrel.The boring details. Wednesday, February 23, 2011. Slab reefing.Scratching the Surface. See how the top batten can get caught. I reef and unreef alot, too much some people say, often a couple of times an hour. but I hate the boat slopping around and I hate pushing too hard, Snow Petrel carries abit to much weather helm at times (I have ideas to fix this.) so getting the mains'l area right is important. I have dealt with a lot of mains, from the 1500 square foot gaff main on Soren Larsen. Make ...
