Boat geek alert, let's take apart an autopilot - Ep3 - TSF Tip & tech

Alright, this one is for the boat geeks, let's talk about how an autopilot is wired, how it interacts with all its various elements and most importantly how to service it. The pushrodd we talk about is the Raymarine Type 2S, there are many others, but this one is one of the best in my opinion.

    4:55 no. no way. i would freak out. basically no horizon, water for hundreds of of kilometers in every direction, 5 kilometers of water under me, complete silence, no movement, only a few square meters of boat surface to exist on, complete isolation, limited water and food, no. forget it. i would do an ocean crossing. but a dead calm like this would make me very, very irritated. if i had some pot to smoke , maybe. but still. this is intense.

    • @TheSailingFrenchman
      @TheSailingFrenchman 18 дней назад

      It really depends on the country, each country has its own customs and immigration procedures. Can be a 5min free form to fill on a computer (French islands in the Caribbean ) or a 1 hours + painful process ending up costing 100$+ in other island (Antigua or BVI for example)

      The IMOCAs are restricted by their box rule; that's why their scow bow isn't as extreme as the mini, but if you compare the Imoca bow from the past 6/8 years and the ones before, you'll see a clear evolution
