How Much Does Sailing in Japan Cost? AND Is My New Dyneema Rigging A Disaster?
Vložit

- Today I answer viewer's questions as to the Costs of Cruising in Japan.
And a question on dyneema rigging creep issue.
Regards cost of cruising in Japan:
These are my own personal take on the costs, based on actually living, cruising and doing work on other peoples sailboats, here in Japan.
Like the majority of cruisers coming in to Japan, I don't have the advantage of being fluent in speaking or reading Japanese.
Dyneema Creep:
The Dyneema creep issue is fairly complex, and involves temperature and working loads etc. What I have answered is just the basic common sense part of the question.
I could go on in great length and detail about, heat treatment in fibre versus braided versus type of dyneema, end usage and the type of boat you have, actual rope size versus practical sizes, costs etc.
I feel it would be like talking about anchors and anchoring (synthetic versus s/s) . In short nothing but divisive, a bit of a windup and pointless.
So kept it very simple, with three points to keep in mind.
1/ Use the correct Dyneema
2/ The diamater of your Dyneema
3/ How good/tight your splice is
But most importantly, I had the help and advice from Peter Greig a professional Synthetic Rigger.

Welcome aboard our sailing catamaran "Tiare", a Wharram Islander 55.
Currently living and sailing around the islands of Japan.
Join with us, as we explore what must be one of the most diverse, fascinating and challenging cruising destinations on the planet.
I look forward to sharing the adventure with you.
Daniel
------ Wharram Catamarans --------
Tiare is not your usual production catamaran, she is a Wharram Islander 55 and has been our home for ten years.
Wharram designed catamarans offer an affordable alternative for everyday people to cast off and cruise the world's oceans. Where keeping it simple, means the freedom to stay out for longer.
We hope these videos will inspire others to look at what it means, and takes, to live aboard while sailing the world.
Thanks Dan. Great to see another video and also learn something. Interesting Re prices
It’s always a learning curve ⛵️
No matter how much we learn there is recognized even more to learn.
Hi Daniel, Simon here from the Netherlands! Love your video's and love to see more... would even consider flying over and crew with you for a while if that is in the stars. Hope to build my own Wharram some day, probably a size smaller but that Islander is a beauty!!! Best wishes from a cold and windy flat land :D
Hi Simon, thanks for the watching. Would be great to see you over here. Great country to visit. Building a Wharram is a great project, my son Sam has built two Wharram Amatasi shimatabiyachts.com
@@SeaJapan Wow, that's amazing! I'll look into it and shoot you a message through your website
👍
Excellent explanations and informative, as usual. 🙏
Thanks MiQ.
Kia ora Dan. Enjoying these Q&A sessions. Would love to hear about and see Tiare's rudder/helming set up and also the main sail sheeting/traveller arrangement. Cheers, Grant. (always hunting down good ideas for our T38 build)
Kip Ora. Great suggestion for a video, just added it to my list :) you started on the Build yet?
Ps. I’m up for a sail as well.
Ok👍
❤ I'll be there!
:)
Hey Dan, off topic, but I keep hearing about free houses in Japan ‘Akiya’ . Is this a thing in your area?
Hi Dave, Akiya just means empty or vacant house. Yes lots around here, not many are free, although free ones do exist. Prices can range from free or one yen, up to many millions of yen, and from move in and livable tomorrow, to demolish and build new. But they all do needs some money for title transfer, local taxes etc.
Akiya are everywhere in Japan, some in really amazing locations. The value in my mind is the land they sit on, the location and communities they are in. Generally when you buy a house in Japan and you live there, you are also committing to the local community. So for example a small yearly fee for temple or Shrine maintenance along with other “community” services, time given to maintain and take part in festivals etc.
Hope this is helpful. Cheers
@@SeaJapan thanks Dan , that is very helpful. Best I get myself over there and find a friendly little community I get involved with. Cheers
Sounds like an excellent plan!
What does it cost to checkin in Japan?
Hi, don’t think there is any cost to check into Japan. There is a requirement to fill out an online pre-arrival procedure form. This makes check in a bit easier, otherwise you have to anchor out for 24hrs which might not be great.
