Scăderi de preț: https://www.acorntoarabella.com/merchandise Alăturați-vă nouă pentru o aventură maritimă geroasă în timp ce o luăm pe Arabella pentru o navigație de iarnă pentru a vă deplasa spre sud, cu țărmul de sud al Massachusetts ca destinație. În acest videoclip, Steve, Robin și oaspetele special George sfidează frigul și fac o noapte de navigație în timp ce se bucură în continuare de frumusețea navigării de iarnă pe această barcă din lemn lucrată manual. Steve împărtășește, de asemenea, modul în care se suprapune și se pregătește pentru provocările și bucuriile de a naviga în lunile mai reci. Împreună-te în timp ce explorăm peisajele senine de iarnă, asistăm la rezistența bărcii împotriva elementelor și descoperim experiențele unice care vin odată cu croaziera de iarnă. Ajungem din urmă cu o barcă Wicked Tuna numită Kraken, care pleacă din Gloucester, Massachusetts, cam în aceeași oră cu noi, pentru a mai pescui o zi pentru ton, înainte ca acesta să își încheie sezonul de pescuit. Nu uitați să dați like, să comentați și să vă abonați pentru mai multe aventuri navigabile! ––––––––- Înscrieți-vă pentru buletinul nostru informativ prin e-mail: http://eepurl.com/hn3Qyv Acorn to Arabella a început ca o barcă de lemn proiect de construcție în Granby, Massachusetts. Steve a început călătoria ca un constructor amator de bărci din lemn, creând o barcă cu pânze din lemn de 38 de picioare în curtea sa: Ingrid a designerului William Atkin cu o platformă Stormy Petrel. Aceste videoclipuri urmăresc călătoria de la tăierea copacilor, la măcinarea cherestea, la ridicarea, la turnarea chilei de plumb și acum navigarea cu barca – împărtășind detalii despre prelucrarea lemnului, tâmplărie, fierărie metal, construirea de scule și întreținerea uneltelor pe care le comandă bărcile tradiționale din lemn. Acest proiect de bricolaj final continuă dincolo de magazinul de bărci, în timp ce Steve și echipajul călătoresc și învață să navigheze la bordul bărcii din lemn realizată manual pe care au construit-o. Glumesc cu toate astea, acest canal este despre o Laika siberiană pe nume Akiva. ––––––––– Dacă sunteți interesat să susțineți/ajuta, iată câteva modalități: https://www.acorntoarabella.com/ cum să-ajuți Acorn la lista de dorințe a Arabellei: https://www.acorntoarabella.com/wishlistpriority TotalBoat acceptă A2A!

  1. Wow Steve, Mum’s jumper, Granny’s socks and Akiva’s dusting of husky insulating fur. maybe your next nmerch should be thermals with akiva paw prints…
    Its trully great to see you guys sailing and enjoying the journey. I hope all the bits are holding up well. Did you get a chance to repair the bulwark where the springer timbers broke? or is that still to come, I ask because we saw Arabellas photogenic side in shot on the waves.
    I hope the family is together for Christmas and you get a good break.

  2. Great, if chilly looking, passage. Gloves are the big unsolved problem, so still a mystery. Something wrong with your distance calculation. 210 miles is 389 km – the conversion is 1.852. in navigation, miles on the chart are always nautical miles.

  3. I am not a sailor, and maybe a dumb question, but it appears one can't actually see directly in front while sailing. Is that an issue? Do you have to check periodically for other vessels? Or are the odds so small that two vessels would be coming directly at each other that it is not an issue?
    Great to see you all on the water! I am a long-time viewer from almost the beginning. Also, Hi KP and Anne!

  4. I really enjoyed the build process and wondered if I’d lose interest once she hit the water. Well I had nothing to fear, seeing Arabella become a living, breathing entity and watching you, Robin and Akiva adapting to your new life and skills is every bit as fascinating. Friday is still the most important day in my calendar. Thank you all and have a brilliant Christmas.

  5. Loved seeing you at the tiller. Best way to learn a boats tendencies: hand steer. Bravo.

    And Akiva is in heaven. A new dog, a new life. Wonderful to see. Cheers.

  6. Dear Steve enjoyed the video. Hope this is taken as a positive criticism. From what I saw your rudder is too small. Think High aspect ratio. You will never replicate the wing of a an airliner but you can give yourself a lot more control with less effort. Your rudder looks pretty but it is not effective. It needs to be strait up and down (more or less). More surface area and less width reduces weather helm and is far more powerful. Good to see you sailing.

  7. Steve: I am astonished at the speed at which you have acquired the skills of a sailor since launching ARABELLA six months ago.

  8. To all the Arabella's crew and the craftsmen (and women) who built her; it's incredibly stirring to see her under sail in the open waters, handling well and proudly, while Steve is transitioning from builder to a blue water sailor and skipper. Steve, Robin, Anne, (and Akiva), Merry Christmas and a wonderfully Happy New Year,

  9. That moment about 13 mins in, with just arabella sailing quietly into the sunrise was lovely! It reminded me of Steve's kayak videos during covid, and reminded me that I miss that. It would be awesome to get just an unedited 30mins video of darkness thru sunrise to early morning, just looking out from arabella. I vertaintly would watch that! And more that once <3

  10. I say this coming from a supermarket background. You want to wear gloves when it is cold. The amount of freezer workers who get arthritis at young ages tells me that this is important.

  11. Surfing gear might be an option to consider. A pair of 8mm wetsuit booties keeps the feet comfortable even in 1C water (and no doubt below if you're in salt water, but I've only used them surfing the great lakes). No need to worry about getting water inside or taking them off if you fall in. Now you just need to put some surf wax on deck, and you're set! 🙂

    Btw, I like how your idea of learning to sail is doing so in winter, when everyone's got their boat hauled out. Very in keeping with the channel.

  12. Someone should start a service just to take people out on the ocean at night and look at the sky with no light pollution.🤔

  13. Steve, just found your channel. Fascinating is not the right word. Have to ask. The cockpit cover seems temporary and not quite the same build as the rest of the boat. Correct / incorrect? Cool to see pics of RI. Grew up in Warwick, now live in St. Louis.

  14. From about 17:50 to 19:00 Steve is "fighting" the boat with the rudder to counter the bow's natural tendency to describe circles in the air.
    A good helmsman learns to minimize rudder usage. Helm pressure always generates drag which reduces boat speed.
    Instead of fighting the boat's natural movements on the waves, try to keep the rudder more or less fixed while letting the bow "circle" around your desired heading.
    Ideally, the helmsman is always trying to find the helm position that keeps the boat pointing to the right place IN AVERAGE.
    In other words, let the boat move in the water, keep the helm as fixed as possible.

  15. That was an educational lecture and demonstration of how to dress up for actual cold weather. I imagine that the strategy Steve described most likely works on cold weather land activities, and not just at sea.

  16. Boots that float (Even slightly buoyant) should be left on in the event of an MOB. Water in the boot is not heavier than water outside the boot… Even if they fill with water they will help keep you harm and afloat.
