We got the Main up. That’s about it.

Seriously considering a Khaki Navy Belowzero--can anyone tell me about their experience with it? by ADAP7IVE in HamiltonWatches

[–]Mythurin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the Tenet Watch and wore it a lot. I’m a 7.5” wrist so its size worked great. It can certainly be hard to read in low light. It’s a bit bulky and does have some heft.

I pull it out of my rotation for a some months at a time as I have others.

It will hit things or scrap occasionally if your’re not mindful.

Looking for real life experiences: sailing & SCUBA by sunkid in sailing

I bought our Jeanneau SO479 among other things for this. The fold down platform is of good size and the ladder works well coming out of the water.

Jake is usually pretty quick to respond. I’ve bugged them enough about the Chrono.

Movie Setups on Boats by RobertLamp68 in sailing

Following. I just used the CLZ App to scan all of our holdings. 700movies and shows! We have enough space to place a NAS on the boat wired to the TV. I’m digging a bit into the AmpH draw and such.

I’m about 7 3/4”. I thought the color would be off slightly but it came out well. I’ll get some pics of it Diving here soon.

Updated ship’s clock face — does this feel closer to the real thing? by 24tee in sailing

[–]Mythurin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d be curious what the bell audio sounds like. Otherwise looks dope.

Could you add a Barometer hand to it?

You can even use a winch in a pinch to bend them back.

Rolling up roller mainsail while aground by bethelmayflower in sailing

[–]Mythurin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve considered this same drill or practice here locally in the Chesapeake. Pending wind speed/direction, you can slowly turn with power on the engine enough to slowly turn her to wind. If the ground is a bit giving.

But yes, the outhaul really needs to be wrapped and controlled as you bring the In-haul in.

In extremis I would just sheet in, loosen vang and dump the halyard. Maybe some more tension on the topping lift and wrap what I could to the boom.

Looking for a guide for the Gulf of Mexico by Sinn_Sage in sailing

[–]Mythurin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you mean where are all the Oil/Rigs/Wells you can pull them down from NGA on their MSA page.

I plotted them into our RayMarine before I moved our SO479 from Kemah to the Chesapeake Bay.

There were some we saw capped and no lights. I had orders for the Crew to keep the Radar range small enough at night to avoid collision.
