All passages are planned, plotted and logged on paper charts and log books. Then the routes and waypoints are entered into the Navigational equipment and as the skipper and navigator, this is regularly checked and cross referenced by marking the position on the paper chart so if the vessel ever lost power, the course and position can be verified and followed. I have 2 hand held battery powered VHF radios as backups. The 2 & 3 year old sails have just been valeted, serviced and treated. I am also replacing all the running rigging that is in constant use under sail. Brand new 4/5 man Tender with fully reconditioned 6HP outboard engine. Large refrigerator, microwave, stereo, 12 volt TV. 300ah LifePO4 Smart Battery for all boat systems and lighting. Engine starter battery. Windlass battery. Solar Panels and AC Inverter. All Victron equipment for handling mains charging & Solar power management. The yacht is now in Tunisia after 3000 Nm of sailing from Southampton UK via Galicia, Portugal, to Gibraltar and then up the Eastern coast of Spain, through the Balierics and across to Sardinia. Finally, after cruising around the island for 2 weeks, I headed South to Tunisia and worked my way down to the Mid East Coast. The yacht is in a marina close to Enfida airport where the majority of Budget airlines fly to from all over Europe, N Africa and the Middle East.
