      interesting feedback from you and Brian..it would be a great idea for a collaboration vid of perhaps 2 different cats...a lagoon 45 and a leopard..SSL and Delos...sailing each one and comparing the pros and cons...
      anyways thanks again Rick

    Thank you Chris and Chrystal, from LTD Sailing, for taking two of my favorite crews, SV Delos and SV Sophisticated Lady, out for a day sailing on your beautiful Cat. Captain Rick I loved the up close insight of the sailors as they captained the Cat and took turns. It was interesting to read the expressions on you faces as you sailed and tried to figure out this new vessel. I wish the guy at the end would've included Sweden, Russia and Canada...three more countries present, but I'm sure there were others there he missed too. Thanks for another great video and for your support of Shasha on her journey. It speaks volumes about you. Fair Winds

    A big thank you to LTD Sailing for taking us along. It was great to hear your feedback about sailing this Cat. Seems like hydraulic steering lacks the connection with whats going on and i think this would be true with a Cat or Monohull.

    I've got a similar cat, a Schionning 48', I've only sailed cats and have hydrolic steering which has no feel. I wish I had cable but instead I listen to the sounds of the boat, mostly the water lifting at the stern and feel the acceleration from adjustments - good or bad.

    Got to be your nicest video yet Rick.
    Maybe it’s because there is a cat in it 😜
    Sailing big cats is doing it by the numbers and gauges. Different at first but once you are used to it it’s great. I have cable steering so there is a little feedback but generally I like to use the autopilot and play with the sails and not worry about the wheel.

  • @donaldchase6163
    @donaldchase6163 Před 6 lety +2

    I'm a little confused. Either this is an older video or Sashcha has finished her journey and has joined your crew again. Which is it? It is a nice video though. That Catamaran looked like it's a very spacious boat. What's the top speed that it can go?

    • @henrikgormsen1020
      @henrikgormsen1020 Před 6 lety +1

      There are a timeline series of videoes, witch is the most of them, but now and then ( Rick usualy tell in the speek when) there is some real time video updates. lately there has been some realtime videoes, and that can be confusing, especialy when the story line is one big party with the Delos tribe ;-) ;-)

    • @chrisrundlett3707
      @chrisrundlett3707 Před 6 lety

      Hi Donard - on the Balance 451 we've had it up to 17.4 knots but cruising 10 - 12 is normal. 3/4 windspeed.

    • @jasonandrews3756
      @jasonandrews3756 Před 6 lety

      Delos just wrapped up their Arctic trip (Svalbard). I think Blue & Brady are actually in Tahoe right now (according to Instagram). This has got to be old. Just not as old as the Brazil episodes on SV Delos

  • @kenhorch5396
    @kenhorch5396 Před 6 lety

    Hi Rick, you didn't talk much about the space, stability, comfort, speed of cats vs monohulls. I suppose its a case of "cats got your tongue". yuk yukyou can guess, we took our lessons on a monohull, and of course, smashed our toes, but now only sail cats. its like our instructor said, there are two types of sailors, those who sail mono hulls and those who sail cats.enjoy the videos. thanks

  • @kennethparker1032
    @kennethparker1032 Před 6 lety

    What I really like, Rick, is your honesty in describing the lack of "feedback" on the "cat", and your honesty in including Brian's similar feedback. Frankly, for all its potential speed, and the excellent company of people aboard, the entire sail seemed rather "meh", even though, with your usual storytelling skill, you did everything you could to make it seem more eventful. When do you get Sascha back, and will the current political kerfuffle cause her any difficulties?

  • @janmitchel3460

    The steering having no feedback is not a function of cats nor hydraulic steering, has to be a feature of this particular steering system.

      How many cabins on that 72ft you where talking about. Couple weeks ago Delos Crew was asking about 100ft yachts. I been telling then for years to get a huge yacht. That way they could take on a dozen or two dozen CZcams Crew out for good times.

  • @billcarson259
    @billcarson259 Před 6 lety +1

    Catamarans are so overrated. I sail a Westsail 42 monohull but deliver these damn floating outhouses for a living for the rich. It takes a gale to move them and they do not point like a monohull. They are travel trailers on training wheels for people who do not know how to sail. Biggest ripoff too at Half a mill for a cheaper one you could have a world blue water monohull cruiser capable of sailing around the world . U could tell Delos and Rick were not impressed.
