    Hi Yeloya
    Thanks very much. Great advice. The helia looks great. I've read that the FP range does suffer from osmosis. Do you think they've sorted it for the helia? Regards. Richard

    Hi Yeloya
    Hope you don't mind me asking for some advice. I'm looking at buying a FP. It will be our first cat. Our last boat was a Tayana. We need to move to a cat for the improved stability because my wife has a back condition and struggles with the motion and heeling of a monohull. Have you any experience on the Salina 48 vs the Orana or Helia. A big priority will be the most comfortable/stable platform under sail and at anchor. Do you think the Salina has a big advantage over Orana? According to the specs, it is only 1 foot wider and although 3 feet longer, I don't have a sense of what this adds in either true size or stability. Any advice and guidance would be much appreciated. Regards Richard

    Hi Atila,

    You may recall we had some conversations about which marina in Marmaris and you provided some very good input. I think you will be back in Marmaris now after your Carribean cruise.

    I have (hopefully) a small problem with a drip on my stern seal. I have a PYI dripless seal but I don't think that is the problem, the drip appears to be further aft than the seal. Knowing you know the yacht business in Marmaris, I wonder if you can recommend a company to look at it? I should be in Marmaris on the 23rd June.

    My boat is a trawler design power boat, a Selene 59.

    Thanks in advance

    Yeloya, thanks for the info. Yes, I too thought that maybe I might bring port sheet all the way to the helm station via a couple of blocks coming across the stern of the boat. Your picture would be great... I am leaving for Tortola on Tuesday and it appears you are working your way towards me, so I will wait until you have the place and time to send me your rigging photo. Thank you so much and good luck with the crossing. Sea u later, Steve

    Hello Yeloya, I've been reading your input for some time now due to my owning hull #30 Orana 44. I really enjoy my boat and sailed it from La Rochelle to Annapolis in Aug 2008. I too, wanted to be with the delivery crew and did make that choice with no regrets.
    Anyway, now I have just purchased an Asymetrical Spinnaker and need some good advice as to how to rig the running blocks. I want to have an adjustable tack line, but I am confused as to how I get the Port sheet/or guy back to the helms station....ANY IDEAS ON THIS??? Thank you for your time. Steve Barber, on Mari's Leonardo

    I would like to know your company too, I prefer people that understand working with communities -- we tend to share mind set.
