Sailing Samil Beach 2011

On Saturday 30th July, REMADOIRA crafts made ​​a trip to Samil beach in Vigo. The idea was to get to the buoy at the mouth of the river Lagares and return to dock Bouzas. The journey began with the departure of the lateen-sail boats out later relinga-sail ships. The wind was moderate from the south, but irregular because it failed the middle of the bay, which caused the delay of the boats that got into the dead calm. However, the ships sailed close to shore safely arrived to the buoy. These boats endeavored to sail close to de wind to Samil and after the buoy turn, were able to sail parallel to the beaches towards Bouzas.

Beautiful navigation we hope to repeat next year.

Through the Verdugo (Green) River

Hi friends

As in other years, some companions sailed up the river Verdugo. Three of our boats, Taiña, Ria de Vigo and Libertad passed under the bridges of Arcade and Pontesampaio and sailed upstream. Aided by a very high tide and dodging a lot of rocks, manage to naviegate to where it was impossible to sail above. A beautiful journey to this river so green and lush.

Sailing the Belida

Here you have you some videos that we did one afternoon we went out to surf the Belida, our toped dorn. It was the last summer, a typical sunny day but with strong wind from the north. We sailed with one reef in the sail and mast half aft inclined. We leave Bouzas (Vigo) to Limens Beach(Morrrazo), sailing forward very fast, very pretty, supporting very well the strong wind. We also came back course through very beautiful

I hope you enjoy the videos as we do in the journey.!

New deck

Hello everybody:

Last December we started to work again in the Imediato, our dragon. Now it needed to make it a beautiful deck in Iroko wood and more appropriate for a ship of its class.

By the time the work is being very nice but we are a little slower than we expected. This type of decks are complicated and have a lot of work.

The most important thing is that next summer our dragon boast about its new deck.
