I'm watching this video after a day at the Multihull Boat Show in LGM and a test sail on the O55 with superb sailing conditions, and I can only say: Wow! What a beautiful boat you own! It's even more incredible "in real life" than in your videos. Thank you for taking us along on your travels. You are great brand ambassadors for Outremer.
Seems like a good idea that real life still beats videos 😎. So go sail (her) around the world yourself!! Is she still the indisputable queen of the Multihull Show?
We’ve only seen the 52 as work in progress in January but she looked very similar to the 55. We’ve got a lot of 51’s in the rally and they don’t look bad at all but the 52 still is a major step up.
Het is lastig vooraf in te schatten hoe makkelijk check in en uit zal gaan maar dat viel enorm mee. Het grootste issue hier is om een moment te vinden dat de swell in de anchorage uit te houden is
Will let you know as we’ll just use it until it breaks. In very dynamic circumstances you have to think of securing it too as it might fall off. In the dark we just put the headlight with elastic band on top of it
We had our heart set on a FP Tanna 47 but are now leaning towards a Outremer 52. As a complete novice, do you reckon the 52 is too much of a handful as a first step into the sailing world? Love your channel. Groete van Kaapstad
We’ve sailed quite a bit on a saona 47. It needed a lot of extra controls on top of the standard to make it easy to sail. We haven’t sailed on an O52 of course but after seeing the setup I would expect it’s easier to sail than the Saona/Tanna. In GLYWO we have participants on a 5X without prior sailing experience that are now halfway around the world. Main issue when choosing a bigger and/or faster boat seems to be a conservative way of deploying the sails until you build more experience
In 2017 we were terrified to switch from a lagoon 39 to a 52 but after 2 weeks it already felt like it was easier to sail, also because of the increased motion comfort.
Depending on what you plan to do it might make sense to train on manoeuvring in port before departure but this might be true for all boats you choose. On the positive side the O52 or other performance cruisers will allow you to sail much better in much more circumstances than the FP. The FP isn’t that bad downwind but upwind there is plenty of room for improvement (have a look on our Heineken regatta movie on the Saona in 2020 😎)
Thanks for your detailed reply. Have emailed Outremer regarding delivery times and sail away price estimate. If it’s going to be years we may get something in the interim as my jealousy is eating me up
Not that we’re great tropical storm experts but on a performance cat you should be able to avoid one with the current early warning systems in place. If one would approach here in New Caledonia we would have a choice between sailing out of its path or hiding in the designated mangrove hurricane hole closely. So far the weather here has been a lot better than what I see around NZ. The last @glyworldodyssey boats that are still in NZ are having a difficult time to find a decent weather window for the crossing.
@@CatGreatcircle You are so wrong. There is no technology to predict cyclone path with any reliability. None. Your are being foolish and taking unnecessary risk. It's not safe.
It’s not about moving at the very last moment it’s about moving to the area north of 10 degrees south days before a potential threat at 230-250 miles a day or choose to moor in the mangroves
@@CatGreatcircle you guys are a danger to yourselves and others. How are you going to know about a threat "days before". A cyclone track is extremely uncertain, even 24 hours out. I worry about others looking at your channel and imagining that you know what you are doing and getting themselves into trouble. Deliberately sailing into the cyclone area in cyclone season is very foolish. Deliberately motoring against low light at high speed in an area with known chart innacuracy was also foolish. The least you could do is put some sort of disclaimer in your video. Not to do so is irresponsible.
The idea of the Wingaker is not too bad but on our ARC almost all of them were torn. Much happier now with a strong smaller normal symmetrical one and a bigger A2. We can leave the symmetrical one on in a squall as well.
Glad to have you back at sea
Enjoy living on the seas through you!

Wonderful episode. Thank you for taking us along.
Seeing the sun surrounded by clouds and the bottom half sticking down out of the clouds was a pretty sight.
i love cats, wow such a beautiful crossing . Thank you for sharing .
Ol school beachlands, ak, nz boy here.
Nice shot of the mighty ARCHER!!! :)
2 days to Norfolk Island is fast. Such a fantastic yacht. The Outremer 52 also looks amazing.
We’ve only seen the 52 as work in progress in January but she looked very similar to the 55. We’ve got a lot of 51’s in the rally and they don’t look bad at all but the 52 still is a major step up.
Hooray, the journey continues.
Seen the boat in the marina today very impressive rig in person
Didn’t you come over to say hello?
Smooth sailing, nice shots 👌
Ver a Great CIrcle navegando, a toda vela, produce una sensación muy agradable de libertad y ligereza. Gracias M & M.
De nada
My family and i also saw your beautiful boat in whangerai. Safe travels.
Wow what an adventure you both are having ....
Fabulous. Thank you.
What a lovely boat.
Il me semble avoir vu votre superbe Outremer 55 à Port du Sud à Nouméa. Bienvenue en Nouvelle-Calédonie et passez un bon séjour sur notre " caillou ".
Merci!
een heel mooi schip hebben jullie groetjes Zoltán 🙏🙏
Enjoying life on a beautiful catamaran
Leuk, om op plekken verzeild te raken waar maar weinig andere zeilers naartoe gaan.
Groetz,
Wim

Hi there, whta drone you using for the airview videos? dji? and if yes which one please? all the best from Berlin
When sailing easiest with the DJI p4 but ordered a handle for the mavic as well
Seems like you like the Hollyland intercom. Is it waterproof and suitable for use when it's raining? Don't see any relevant info on their website.

No worries Mate 😅

Great stuff How cool to see Archer again :)
What are your plans for Aussie ?? are you coming to Sydney ??
Vanuatu then Mackay and then north to Thursday island. There will be an Outremer boat show in Mackay second week of June
It's still cyclone season. Why are you sailing into the cyclone area?

It was much scarier to be on the other side of the globe and have a cyclone coming straight over our boat in Whangarei

Can someone tell me what manufacturer makes the instruments that are displayed on the large screen?
It’s just a normal monitor replicating the BandG monitor via a hdmi cable
@@CatGreatcircle Thank you. Safe travels!
Interested in the LG set up. What software do you use.
No software needed, normal monitor with 3 inputs, I switch between the plotter hdmi in and the laptop hdmi in
How much for the boat?
Subscibed.
👏👍🏻
did you get rid of your Wingaker ? or do you still use it ? is it good/bad ? any issues ?
The idea of the Wingaker is not too bad but on our ARC almost all of them were torn. Much happier now with a strong smaller normal symmetrical one and a bigger A2. We can leave the symmetrical one on in a squall as well.
@@CatGreatcircle which brand/model are you using for your symmetrical one ?
We have a thicker polyester one from Incidence Sails. My technical neighbour here says it’s an S4.
You can see very well how it worked for us during our Atlantic crossing from Cabo Verde to Barbados
👍
Amazing place. A Pacific Island with no indigenous or native people.
You did not sail from new. Zealand to Australia in 2days thats bullshit
Wedduh?
terrible audio!
