Episode Emergency Steering in the South Pacific, Red Seas 2

0:00 1:32:30

Iain and Brioni are two Scottish sailors casually circumnavigating on a Leopard 47 Catamaran. As we spoke, they were in the South Pacific.

We talk about dealing with a broken steering cable, using an emergency tiller, repairing the steel cable with dyneema, their route across the South Pacific, hurricanes, staying warm, whales, cameras and drones and the logistics of making a YouTube channel, INav4U, how to know when to reef a catamaran, watch and sleep schedules, sailing to an uncharted atoll, fish and their level of intelligence, sharks, making decisions as a couple without conflict, division of boat chores or not, sailing goals, tacking angles of their catamaran and my monohull, and more.
