    I absolutely LOVE your channel! Entertaining, Inspiring, and Instructional! With your videos, I planned my sailing techniques, chartered a bareboat, and sailed Exumas with my wife and daughters 2 years ago!
    Now, we're planning to sail Abacos! Thanks Captain!

    Every remote Caribbean island video i see i have to comment the same each time. It's beatiful to see (once or twice, especially leaving a dark wintery wonderland) but 7days of blazing sun and salt blown air, zero amenities. Zero restaurants. Zero shopping. Zero entertainment. No friends. You're quickly going to have to be comfortable alone doing nothing. Absolutely nothing.i know, I've been there for two weeks. And I'd had enough.

    Just LOVE your Videos. My plan, is to buy a specific sailing catamaran, then owner operate it and charter it out through out the whole year, maybe exception of 2-3 months sailing across the atlantic, charter it in bahamas and then crossing atlantic and charter it there, doing this for about three years. still working out the logistics of it. seasons, weather and so on. But i think it could work well. BAHAMAS from NOV to APRIL and CROATIA from JUNE to SEPT

    This sucking out oil....don't you worry about some dirt left on the bottom? Usually when you change oil in engines drain is located in the lowest part of engine ....just wondering if it's something like Yanmaar did not think through

    • @IgorStropnik
      @IgorStropnik  Рік тому +2

      There should be drain also and agree would be better. I have seen many pro mechanics always use our method probably because it’s easier but this Yanmar engines run forever anyway.

  • @RGF56
    @RGF56 Рік тому +1

    I take it you are changing the oil and filter at 52 hrs but the next is scheduled for 250 hrs ? I would have thought 100hrs would be the interval so 150 .

    • @IgorStropnik
      @IgorStropnik  Рік тому +2

      First change is in 50h and than every 250h. Thats what manual says.

      Leopard 50. If you want performance look for other boat as this two are cruising boats.

    I enjoyed the video and the insight on the Leopard 50. Would like to know how the Code Zero performs. Just FYI. Bahamian’s pronounce Cay as “Key”. Also Conch is pronounced “Konk”. Otherwise the Bahamians will look at you funny.

      @IgorStropnik  Рік тому

      You clip your harness in storm so if you fall of boat you stay attached to it.
