About Me

                                                                                                          Who am I? Hi, I’m Viivi Moisio from Finland. I graduated from a sports high school in 2022, and since then, I’ve been more or less sailing and doing various jobs alongside it, including customer service, coaching/training. Currently, I work as a sailmaker at WB-Sails, a Finnish sail loft. My sailing background: I started sailing at the age of 8 in an Optimist dinghy with my older brother. My brother was immediately excited about sailing, while I wasn’t so keen. However, watching him made me want to give sailing a chance. I began attending afternoon training sessions, but still, sailing didn’t feel like my thing. It wasn’t ...

Class Globe 5.80 Hull #195

Finally, I can announce that the construction of my boat has begun. Initially, my idea was to build the entire hull myself in Finland. However, I realized that I wouldn't have enough time for that, so I decided to order the boat from the Kolibri Jachtbouw company in the Netherlands. The company builds Mini 6.50 and Globe 5.80 boats. A blog about the construction of boat number #78 is written on the company's website. They have just started building the hull, and I immediately requested some pictures so I can share them here :) The boat will arrive in Finland at the end of 2024, and it will be completed here. A big thank you in advance to Kolibri Jachtbouw! The building jig with frame D installed, seen from aft 

A short visit to the Globe 580 boats

I was in Lanzarote preparing for the RORC Transatlantic Race when, by chance, I ended up in the same marina as the Globe 580 Transat skippers. I decided to make the most of the opportunity and took a walk along the docks, even though my schedule was tight. I managed to visit a few boats, and those visits turned out to be incredibly inspiring. Each boat had something unique, and the skippers' solutions gave me plenty of new ideas and insights for finishing and equipping my own boat. It was particularly interesting to see the different approaches the skippers had taken in building and outfitting their boats  there was something valuable to learn from each one.  Beyond the technical observations, what stood out the most was the camaraderie among the skippers. The atmosphere in the marina was almost family-like, with everyone genuinely helping each other out. The more experienced ones shared tips, someone lent tools, and together they solved problems like old friends. This positiv...
