KrakenBy Kraken SailingSeptember 20, 2023

Last year, we reviewed the new Hallberg-Rassy 400 and deemed it one of SAIL’s Top 10 Best Boats for 2023. Interestingly, it came to the U.S. ahead of its immediate predecessor, the center-cockpit 40C, which this year is making its U.S. debut though it was launched ahead of the 400. It’s the same …

The new Italia Yachts 12.98 fits neatly between its big sister, the 14.98, and smaller sibling, the 11.98, in size, design, and purpose. While the bigger 14.98 is geared toward the speed-oriented sailor with luxurious long-term cruising in mind, and the 11.98 is focused more on the racing end of …

KrakenBy Kraken SailingSeptember 13, 2023

There are times when you need to ease sheets smartly, but on most self-tailing winches that means removing a winch handle, taking the line from the self-tailer, and then easing the line on the drum—often not as quickly as you’d like to make the move. With its QuickTrim feature, Ronstan is removing …

KrakenBy Kraken SailingSeptember 12, 2023

While vacationing in West Cork, Ireland, in August, one of my goals was to spend some time sailing with Don Street. It says a lot that this is even a possibility. The last time I sailed with Don, when he was a sprightly sure-footed 75-year-old, was way back in 2005, aboard his famous 100-year-old …
