Get Ready to CRUISE
Lin & Larry Pardey
Offshore Sailing - Part One
Join Lin and Larry Pardey at their home base in New
Zealand as they share ideas and hints to make your boat
safer, easier to handle, and more enjoyable to use.
On board Taleisin-the boat that has been their
home for 65,000 miles of voyaging - they demonstrate
galley upgrades, table design ideas, comfortable seating
arrangements, and ways to improve ventilation below
deck. On deck, learn how sail and ground-tackle handling
can be made easier for even the smallest crew member.
Larry discusses sun protection, rain collection, and
line handling. Lin provides advice on buying and storing
provisions and hints for keeping you and your crew dry,
warm, clean, and well rested.
Shot in The Pittwater (north of Sydney, Australia) and
at Fremantle, as well as at their home base in New Zealand
(where they are restoring a 110-year-old racing yacht),
this DVD incorporates the best ideas from their highly
praised videos, including Cruising with Lin and Larry
Pardey and The Care and Feeding of Sailing Crew.
The programs have been re-edited, re-mastered, and supplemented
with new information from these master voyagers, who
now have more than 180,000 miles under their belts -
including a contrary-to-the-wind circumnavigation below
the four great southern capes.
Come along and share in some of the secrets that, even
after forty years afloat, make the Pardeys eager to
keep cruising,"...as long as it's fun."
"More than 50 really useful ideas."
- WoodenBoat magazine
"If more couples worked toward this kind of
equality afloat, boats would break fewer hearts."
- Roger C. Taylor, Sail magazine
"An excellent addition to any sailor's video
library."
