Description
Professional Offshore Yacht Readiness and Safety Inspection by Warrior Yachting Warrior Yachting has over 200,000 nautical miles in their wake. They’ve sailed to some of the most remote areas on Earth (Easter Island, Antarctica) and some of the most popular cruising grounds too. They’ve survived hurricanes, and rode out storms on every continent. From day sail drifters on the Chesapeake Bay to 70+ knots in the Straits of Magellan, they’ve been there. Now they want to help you. Are you interested in taking your first steps offshore? Want to cross the North Atlantic or maybe head south for a season in the Caribbean? They can help. Warrior Yachting is offering a “One Day Offshore Yacht Consultations” onboard your vessel for preparation and guidance for offshore sailing. We will cover safety at sea from necessary safety equipment to proven strategies for surviving rough weather while underway. We’ll walk you through a detailed checklist of preventative maintenance to ready yourself for the confidence needed in making long distance passages. We will also demonstrate proper rigging techniques and sail selection for a variety of offshore conditions. Engine maintenance and readiness for potential repairs is so very important - Warrior Yachting will review your yacht’s systems, make recommendations for potential upgrades, and provide you with a customized ‘Spares List’ based on your yacht, your goals, and your future cruising itinerary. Having a safe, clean interior is one of our concerns at sea. We will offer detailed advice on storage techniques for offshore sailing, thereby reducing breakage and accidents while reducing the overall danger associated with rough weather sailing. Provisioning for offshore sailing can be a tough exercise if you don’t know where to start. We have the experience in this area and will share first-hand knowledge of what works, and what doesn’t. Having provisioned yachts for 8 people on month long expeditions to Antarctica, we’ve developed techniques that keep the crew fed and happy with minimum effort. Let’s face it, eating at sea can be so important to crew morale. Two members of the Warrior Yachting Team will spend a complete day on your yacht, reviewing operating systems, mechanical systems, safety systems and rigging and offer you practical guidance on effective ways to maintain, upgrade and completely utilize your yacht. Let us help take the guesswork out of your next passage. With Warrior Yachting you can have the confidence to take your yachting to the next level.
