The ocean can get Terrifyingly shitty. The worst I’ve been in is mid 40 knots offshore which in the grand scheme of things is not a very big deal and that was extremely uncomfortable and scary
But to imagine the fury of the ocean Tropical storm or even hurricane force conditions at sea is beyond comprehension. I’ve read accounts of waves that look like mountains, winds that tear apart any amount of sail, and motion so rough that the only thing you can do is strap yourself to your bunk and just pray.
Back in the day Sailors like the Pardeys had no choice but to prepare their boat for these worst possible conditions. But now with modern technology and even Artificial Intelligence, are those days over? Can we now set sail over the horizon confident that we will avoid those worst case scenarios? And, if we are patient enough, can we avoid uncomfortable weather all together?
This week we’re going to investigate these questions as we install systems on the boat that incorporate cutting edge technology in an attempt to make our sailing adventures safer and more comfortable. But before we get to that we’ve got some routine maintenance and improvements we want to tackle.
