S3#29. 6mm from SINKING!!! BAD versus GOOD Welding – Portofino 52 New Build.
Join our Patreon : patreon.com/BarefootDoctorsSailing – from $3/episode
Join Barefoot Doctors Sailing FOR VERY RECENT UPDATE as we answer some of the important questions our subscribers have asked us about the process of welding Aluminium, is it stronger or weaker where it is welded, what about different thicknesses welded together and certification for official approval internationally… We are in Dubai to discuss these issues with Raffaele, the founder of Portofino Marine Service and builder of the new Portofino 52, the shallow draft, beachable, aluminium catamaran that we are having built to our specs! Very exciting stuff….
We also give the results of the hair debate – to cut or not to cut, that is the question!
The first Patreon sailing event is in the week of 17th Sept in Guck, Turkey so those lucky to be patrons on our channel can join us for this great week of sailing the Turquoise Coast of Turkey with us on our Leopard 45!!! Join up if you want to have those opportunities…
Our Patreon option starts from only $3 per week, and will allow our supporters to enjoy live updates, join us for sailing events in Gocek, Turkey (Sept 2023), Aegean Greece, May 2024. Then in Dubai Jan 2025 (aboard the new Portofino 52) join us for the launching party and test sails!!! We are also offering boat build tours with sailing off Dubai to share the progress of the P52 build and provide whatever sailing or life discussions that YOU want us to provide during all of these events….. It is a very exciting prospect and we have been requested repeatedly to give advice, take folk sailing, teach sailing techniques etc etc…. So here it is!!!
Any Patreons will have the choice to join us for these events which are usually about 5 days to be up close and personal with Eli and John and learn from their expertise… There will be sailing trips, excursions and chats during the events and the subjects will be designed to suit the participants that will be there. Patreons will receive all the sailing and talks with the Barefoot Doctors without any cost but will only have to cover their own travel, food and accomodation costs.
All Patreon proceeds go to Exqisit Life Foundation to support TUFMINDS Mental Resilience and Suicide Prevention Program worldwide.
Some come Barefoot with us on this exciting journey – now physically and in person with Patreon if you wish!!!
Binge watch and come barefoot with us as we travel and explore the planet, mostly from the water but sometimes through the minds of others as we provide aid and support where needed through the amazing TUFMINDS solutions!
