I am very sad about this decision from manufacturers. I like being able to single hand my phone and don’t want a large screen at that expense.

Got a bit gusty and we took both reefs just before this photo ahead getting into the storm.

Probably gusted up to 20 kts or so. Sustained about 15 from memory.

My best advice would be to get adept at the maintenance side of things. Sailboats live in harsh environments and will almost always have something breaking on you. Learn basic electrical systems, engine maintenance and line/sail maintenance.

You can do all of this before having a boat just watching YouTube and working on electrical in your house, your car/transport engine and buying some cheap off cuts of canvas and rope.

The better you are at fixing things, the better off you’ll be at living in your off grid paradise.
