A visit to LinoCat

A nice view over the swiss alps when flying from Stuttgart to Portimao.

LinoCat is still on the hard in Portimao. The Spectra Watermaker has been installed. It is a Ventura 200, which can produce roughly 30Litre of water per hour while drawing 10A. It is designed for a slightly higher output but only suitable for warm water.

The under water through hull fitting was already installed from the factory years ago and so there just had to be an above waterline through hole for the brine discharge water.

There a several filters installed from charcoal to a 5 micron and 20 micron filter, a feedpump and the Clarke high pressure pump.
All this was fitted under the forward port bunk.

Sailing for Jesus Christ

Image
Today the ELIDA V was in the marina. She is 40m long and the mast is 45m high!!! She is built from composite and weighs only 95 tons. With a sail area of more than 800squaremeters she can do 20knots. COOL STUFF The boat is holding groups of young people who believe in Jesus Christ but it does not matter to which church they belong. Typically up to 40 young people are guests and the crew is around 12 to 16 people. The boat is very spartanic inside but built very safe and fast. The big Harken winches are operated by grinders and even the anchor is pulled up with them. This is the meeting room below. It can also be used for company sails. Maybe one day we will have our management meeting there. Here you can see Colin from Californa. He showed us around on the boat. Under http://www2.elida.se/default.asp?id=53 you can read more about this fabolous boat. Roger at the steering wheel. Almost as tall as he is :-) Check my big shoe size 47 against the winches and the traveler :-)
