Our first SAILING ADVENTURE in 6 months | Sailing MAKANI Ep39
Join us as we go on a little sailing adventure after six months of preparing our #tinyhome for a cruising season in the Med. Before we go out to check if we are still able to sail away with our beautiful #sailboat 😅, we fix one more tiny thing up on the mast.
Thanks for watching and welcome on board.

*** ABOUT US ***
Ahoy there. We are Kathi & Max from Austria. In July 2019 we started our #sailing adventure in northern Germany, when we moved aboard a classic sailboat named MAKANI. With little experience in sailing and boat maintenance, we slowly learn all about this lifestyle and refit the boat to make it our own. Here we share our big MAKANI-Adventure with all of you.

    Don't know if you looked it up the the "triangle shaped ruler" but in American English it is called a set square or protractor triangle. Auf Deutsch heißt es glaube ich TZ-Dreiek oder Geomatrie-Drejeck. In the 1980's I was a yoga instructor with the Sivananda Yoga Centers. I ran the center in Madrid, Spain and sometimes taught at the center in Munich, Germany and Vienna, Austria. Now I am a retired pharmacist and I just bought my first sailboat: an O'Day 222 which I need to paint the hull in the springtime before launching it. So I appreciate you video on painting the hull. Vielen Dank. Robert in New Mexico, USA.

      @SailingMAKANI 3 роки тому

      Hi there, we don't have AIS but we plan to get it with the next bigger refit. We think that the configuration should not be too difficult. As far as we know, you can even display AIS on the small B&G multifunction display and you apparently don't need to have a chart plotter. If we decide to install AIS, we will make sure it matches the NMEA 2000 data-bus configuration and then it'll be just plugged into the backbone.
