SUCCESS STORIES
5 YEARS, 6 CONTINENTS, AND 27 COUNTRIES LATER
"Saving yourself the time and effort, in addition to ensuring you get the most out of your propellers, makes Propspeed well worth it."
Amy Alton Sailor, Starry Horizons
SUMMARY
Amy and David Alton spent 5 years sailing the world, visiting 6 continents and 27 countries and territories. One comfort that has accompanied them on their travels since 2017 is Propspeed.
ABOUT
In late 2014, David and Amy Alton, otherwise known as the Star Chasers, packed up their entire life and moved aboard their new yacht, Starry Horizons, a Fountaine Pajot Helia 44. This was the beginning of their adventure around the world.
Circumnavigating took the couple 5 years and brought them to 6 continents and 27 continents and territories. One comfort that has accompanied Starry Horizons on their travels since 2017 is Propspeed.
“We were tired of cleaning our props so often. We searched online for a solution, and since we were in New Zealand, it was convenient to give it a try. And Propspeed has a great reputation.”
Whilst sailing the coast of Australia, Amy and David experienced first-hand the difference of Propspeed versus no Propspeed. “We had one folding propeller with Propspeed and one without. We departed to make our way up the coast and discovered the propeller without Propspeed had so much growth on it that it couldn’t close…we had to detour to anchor off an island and clean our propeller.
So would Amy and David recommend Propspeed?
“Absolutely. It’s one less thing to worry about, and with the investment of folding propellers, you certainly want to keep your propellers clean as easily possible…Saving yourself the time and effort, in addition to ensuring you get the most out of your propellers, makes Propspeed well worth it.”

INFORMAZIONI
Alla fine del 2014, David e Amy Alton, conosciuti anche come i Cacciatori di Stelle, hanno impacchettato tutta la loro vita e si sono trasferiti a bordo del loro nuovo yacht, Starry Horizons, un Fountaine Pajot Helia 44. Questo è stato l'inizio della loro avventura intorno al mondo.
La circumnavigazione ha richiesto alla coppia 5 anni e li ha portati in 6 continenti e 27 paesi e territori. Un comfort che ha accompagnato Starry Horizons nei loro viaggi dal 2017 è Propspeed.
"Eravamo stanchi di pulire le nostre eliche così spesso. Abbiamo cercato una soluzione online e, poiché eravamo in Nuova Zelanda, era conveniente provarlo. E Propspeed ha un'ottima reputazione."
"Navigando lungo la costa australiana, Amy e David hanno sperimentato in prima persona la differenza tra Propspeed e senza Propspeed. 'Avevamo un'elica pieghevole con Propspeed e una senza. Siamo partiti per risalire la costa e abbiamo scoperto che l'elica senza Propspeed aveva così tante incrostazioni che non riusciva a chiudersi... abbiamo dovuto fare una deviazione per ancorare vicino a un'isola e pulire l'elica.'"
Quindi, Amy e David consiglierebbero Propspeed?
"Assolutamente. È una cosa in meno di cui preoccuparsi, e con l'investimento in eliche pieghevoli, vuoi certamente mantenere le tue eliche pulite nel modo più semplice possibile... Risparmiarsi tempo e fatica, oltre a garantire il massimo rendimento dalle eliche, rende Propspeed un investimento che vale davvero la pena."

À PROPOS
À la fin de 2014, David et Amy Alton, autrement connus sous le nom de Chasseurs d'Étoiles, ont emballé toute leur vie et ont emménagé à bord de leur nouveau yacht, Starry Horizons, un Fountaine Pajot Helia 44. Ce fut le début de leur aventure autour du monde.
La circumnavigation a pris 5 ans au couple et les a menés sur 6 continents et dans 27 pays et territoires. Un confort qui a accompagné Starry Horizons dans leurs voyages depuis 2017 est Propspeed.
"Nous en avions assez de nettoyer nos hélices si souvent. Nous avons cherché une solution en ligne et, comme nous étions en Nouvelle-Zélande, c'était pratique d'essayer. Et Propspeed a une excellente réputation."
"En naviguant le long de la côte australienne, Amy et David ont constaté de première main la différence entre Propspeed et sans Propspeed. 'Nous avions une hélice pliante avec Propspeed et une sans. Nous sommes partis pour remonter la côte et avons découvert que l'hélice sans Propspeed avait tellement de croissances qu'elle ne pouvait pas se refermer... nous avons dû faire un détour pour jeter l'ancre près d'une île et nettoyer notre hélice."
Alors, Amy et David recommanderaient-ils Propspeed?
"Absolument. C'est une chose de moins à laquelle penser, et avec l'investissement dans des hélices pliantes, vous voulez certainement garder vos hélices propres aussi facilement que possible... Vous épargner du temps et des efforts, tout en vous assurant de tirer le meilleur parti de vos hélices, fait que Propspeed en vaut vraiment la peine."

ACERCA DE / SOBRE
A finales de 2014, David y Amy Alton, también conocidos como los Cazadores de Estrellas, empacaron toda su vida y se mudaron a bordo de su nuevo yate, Starry Horizons, un Fountaine Pajot Helia 44. Este fue el comienzo de su aventura alrededor del mundo.

"Navegando por la costa de Australia, Amy y David experimentaron de primera mano la diferencia entre Propspeed y sin Propspeed. 'Teníamos una hélice plegable con Propspeed y otra sin. Partimos para subir por la costa y descubrimos que la hélice sin Propspeed tenía tantas incrustaciones que no podía cerrarse... tuvimos que desviar nuestro rumbo para anclar cerca de una isla y limpiar nuestra hélice."
Entonces, ¿Amy y David recomendarían Propspeed?
"Absolutamente. Es una cosa menos de la que preocuparse, y con la inversión en hélices plegables, ciertamente quieres mantener tus hélices lo más limpias posible...
