A little off topic: How do you solo sail without running into floating containers, etc, when you're asleep?

I regards to the 4 crew members that lost their lives, my condolences to the families. Why wouldn’t they have been saved by life jackets if they were wearing them?

Bavaria boats are "Australianised " when brought here. The keels are just bolted on with washers. Here they are fixed by glassing in a half inch stainless plate with decent bolts attached.

Ive been sailing for 15 years and I have never unintentionally run aground. However, I have never been ocean sailing and all the lakes I've been on have been well charted and i have always known my approximate depth. The times I have intentionally run aground are mostly on a 13ft Styrofoam boat that is easier to beach then to anchor, and on a 23ft precision. That time I sailed into shallow water and let down the center board so it would dig into the mud. The reason was because the top halyard pulley broke, and we thought it would be easier to hoist someone up the mast in a harness then drop the mast. We wanted to reduce as much rocking as possible since a 23ft boat isn't really heavy enough to have a person swinging around the top of the mast

Hi Tim, worth visiting this subject again- Leverage, imho, much more important than most people think is Deep Draft Bolt on Keels on Cruising Boats. My biggest issue with Bavaria, because there is so much to like otherwise, is Shoal Draft in the entire size range I'm interested in, is nowhere near Shallow enough for the places I want to go- ideally 1.5 mtrs, or 4ft 11 inches. or cut the number of places available to go to, to a level I can live with less happily, a Draft of 1.6 mtrs, 5ft 3 inches. I've seen boats grounded heavily with such shallow Drafts, and the damage has been light enough for people to only spot it on their next boat haulout, and not too bad a job to sort out, and I think it comes down to that lack of leverage. that you get with deep Fin Keels. So for a Cruiser, less strain on the Keel Mounting, and another related benefit, Hugely reduced Keel Bolt Stretching, with stretched Bolts, needing retorquing, which encourages more stretching, with external leverage stretching, needing more torquing, and you are in a Bolt strength destroying Cycle, and needing replacement Keel Bolts. Bavaria, simply don't make a Sailboat with a shallow enough bolt on Keel for me to even being considered by me tobuy one. Dealer is even worse, their 46 which I like below deck ? ShoalDraft is 7ft 1 inches ! Are they Nuts ? I can't even run into small sheltered Bays locally to hide from Storms at low Tide with a Draft like That ! Yes there are parts of the World a boat owner can get away with a Draft like that, but the places to go are dramatically reduced, and tbh, I'm not interested in anchoring as much as a mile offshore to have water deep enough to Anchor, and all those safe really well sheltered Bays to hide out in? They are ruled right out aren't they. A Bavaria C45 was pretty close to the top of the list of the boats I was considering, for a lot of good reasons, but that 5ft 8/9 inch Draft is way too far over my red line sad to say. It's not just Bavaria though, other builders are building not shallow enough Draft too. I Like Dufour too, and they miss the mark with Shoal Draft Depth as well. Still, some less recent boats may be available with 1.6mtr Draft, so something will turn up, as new builds do seem to have ruled themselves out. Best Wishes and Fair Winds. Bob.

Unless a boat has an integrated keel, (No bolt ons, ) has a protected rudder, either by full keel or by a skeg, and is robustly built, It is not a blue water boat suitable for passage making. It should also have a keel mounted mast, heavy duty rig, and oversize furlers and winches, either manual or dual electric manual. In other words it should be tough and resilient. (The current criteria of force 8 and 4 metre waves is nothing close to being resilient).

I would love to see my boat lol probably wouldn't find much on a 70s bayliner buccaneer. Love watching your channel though. It's nice to have a Canadian sailing channel. If you're ever in New Brunswick hit me up for a free tattoo
