Be careful of the ice, it can be wind driven also.
In your opinion would a catamaran, around 10 meters (32 ft.) be better for beaching?

I like designs that enable lower cost of ownership. Every design has pluses and minuses for different sailing conditions, but helping to keep your wallet in the plus status is always a good thing.

Great job beaching the boat. Textbook!
I didn’t know you had a rear daggerboard but it makes sense. And to be able to pull the centerboard up sailing downwind really does help while surfing down the waves downwind!
Good job working the tides. They can vary up to 25’ here in Juneau during the spring king tides. Before you said how you were going to do it, I was saying it out loud to you while watching the video! I had a 20’ sailboat with a retractable keel and beached it often in places I knew were mostly sand. A friend has a remote cabin and there’s a great beach close by and I’d beach this boat on an incoming tide, run up and check his cabin, then get back onboard and back out of the bay! Not only did the keel retract but the rudder would flip up (mounted on the stern) and still be in the water but above the bottom of the boat. Plus the outboard motor mount allowed me to pull the engine mostly up but still have the prop and water intakes below the water line. I once ran aground up the Taku River but just jumped overboard and pushed the boat off the sandbar! With the keel and other things up, it would go in about a foot of water!
Cool idea about the bottom being somewhat flat on your boat. She was made to beach, which is a good idea of you have issues below the waterline and are in an emergency.
I didn’t know about aluminum anodes. We only have zinc ones in town but I might try finding them online this winter. I haul my Catalina 27 out this coming springs to replace the flax in the stuffing box and replace the cutlass bearing, and will do bottom paint and zincs, so I might switch to aluminum if I can find them.
Good episode guys! Enjoyed it very much. If you come back thru SE Alaska, come visit Juneau and I’ll play host!
