- In this episode we continue with our sail across to Sardinia where we lose a few of our key electronics. The weather turns nasty and boy are we happy to arrive in Sardinia. Come along as we sail to some spectacular places along Southern Sardinia and enter into gelato heaven.
Hope you enjoy the video!

Salt water and electronics rarely mix and the ocean is not friendly with our gear. Things are constantly breaking or rusting apart. These are a few of the things we hope to get to keep bringing Sailing Zephyr to you.

🇦🇺 Another great video guys 👍. Good to see that Aussie flag hanging up. Nat the gourmet chef ....tuna looks so, so good. Safe travels.... till next week 😃😃
She is incredible! Knocking up amazing dishes. I'm definitely a spoiled guy. Glad you enjoyed the video. 👍
HI again, a tip for anchoring: Always take out depth times 5 in chain length (it looks much less on the video), and never anchor in less than 3 times the depth of the ships draft (should be some 6 or 7 m for your Benneteau and looks much less as well on the video). There may come waves and already 2 meters wave hight is enough to smash the ground. In the mediterranean there are ferries that go on high speed and the make up to 6 m bow wave and if you are not familiar with their routes, be carefull... we want to watch you sailing and experiencing and not sinking ;-)
Thanks Michael for all the tips! Anchoring is definitely a day to day thing we do....so we def want to make sure we do it right and like you said not lose the boat!
Another great video guys, love the drone shots at 7:26, really good!
Thanks so much!
I get to watch you guys live my dreams. Cancer took it from me. God bless, fair winds and following seas always.
Very sorry to hear. Sending good vibes your way. Cheers for watching Eagle. ❤️ Stay safe.
Looks way better than the snow covered ground outside my window guys. Good luck on the instrument repair. 👍🙂
Thanks 👍 Hopefully should be resolved soon enough.
felicidades aos dois .Bons ventos desde Portugal.
When motoring in rough, lumpy seaway it's better to have your mainsail up ( even reduced size) to use as a stabiliser. It will help with mitigation of the pendulum effect from the keel. Just sheet it on tight on your centre line.
Thanks for the advice Jack. We will definitely give it a go.
If you're catching fish then make sure you gut it straight away, that way you minimise the risk of parasites moving from intestines to flesh. We catch a lot of mackerel here in Scotland and I've seen them crawling with all kinds of parasites 2 hours after having been caught. We always gut straight away now and have never had any issues since.
Thanks for the great advice Davie! 👍😁
G'day mate yeah nice to see you guy's setting sail again, eat your sea food fresh as , furthermore have shave mate , stay safe God bless. AMEN
Ha ha...will do our best. Cheers for watching.
I'm looking for nice Yacht too mate any Direction from you , what to look for in Brisbane , say 35 foot is my ideal size.
Thanks for diving your anchor and filming it. Doesn't seem like many show their anchor with a good set.
No worries mate. cheers 👍
Just wanted to say hi and have a good day
Thanks Roger. Hope you are safe and well.
In Louisiana we'd call that a fish coubian. It's good,
Tuna is totally fine don’t listen to them
Aussie chick's are the best.
Were u guys at cala mondrago few weeks ago? Swear i saw you on the beach
Sorry Zeki. Wasn’t us.
@@SailingZephyr look out for your twin then he’s somewhere in the balearics!
Why don’t you put the main sail up when motorsailing? It prevents the boat from rolling. Just a tip from a German sailor.
We always try when motoring. In some cases if the wind isn't strong enough and the seas are rolling, the main just keeps slamming. So we have to bring it in. Any ideas how we can stop this? cheers 👍
Trim the sail as flat as possible! A bit of slamming shouldn’t hurt a sturdy touring sail.
Or: put in one or two reefs and trim it flat.
Video was pretty boring but nanas pretty excited
Sorry guys I'm little confused why do you need an instrument to tell you where its coming from ?
In my seven years of sailing I never had one
Helps with wind speed and apparent wind for reefing.
:-)
Thanks 👍
A very hot girl.
