Has technology made sailing safer or are we becoming too reliant on it? In this episode of Cruising Croatia, Dee takes a closer look at the incredible technology transforming modern sailing yachts.
From advanced navigation systems and digital charts to onboard instruments and cloud-based passage planning, today’s yachts are smarter than ever. But with all this technology at our fingertips, are we losing the traditional skills that every sailor should still master? Together with our skipper Mirna, we explore where technology really adds value, when it might let you down and why good seamanship will always matter.
The first, second, third and fourth episodes available to watch now on the RYA website and YouTube channel, with new episodes released weekly.
