Web series / Sailing Kalispera : We're going after the decorating


In this new episode of Sailing Kalispera, Arnaud and Mélanie continue their (long) renovation work on their Jeanneau Sun Odyssey 45.1. Even if there's still some mechanical and electronic work to do, Kalispera is mostly getting a makeover! With a big can of paint!

We're still working on Kalispera, Arnaud and Melanie's Sun Odyssey 45.1! And this time, it's more about"decorating". Sanding the deck (yes the whole deck!) teak to give it back its youth, white paint inside - from the saloon to the kitchen via the chart table and even the steps down

Arnaud continues to optimize and install all electronic and mechanical equipment (navigation equipment, radars, solar panels), diesel filter cleaning, engine repairs...

But preparing your boat is not enough to leave serenely on a big cruise! Now it's time to learn the offshore permit! Find out everything you need to know about it (why take it, is it mandatory?)...

Once the painting is finished, the new sails installed, it's time to move to Kalispera! And go to Corsica! Well almost... More in episode 6..

After all, as Arnaud says so well,"Sailing around the world is not just shorts and shorts, but also a little blood and sweat"!
