It is an aft cockpit variant of the Westerly 33. Aboard *Sea Dream of Clyde*, the crew installed two additional 100-watt Renogy solar panels on the cockpit lifelines, bringing the total system to 400 watts, routing wiring through the aft cockpit combing to support increased power demands including Starlink and a freezer.6:50 The crew frequently uses a Hydrovane self-steering system for long passages, including a 2,000-mile journey from the Pacific Northwest to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, and during a transit in the Gulf of California.1:44 They have sailed the boat in diverse conditions, from navigating variable winds and squalls in Icy Strait, Alaska, to managing thick fog and light winds in the Pacific Northwest, and encountering strong northerly winds in the Gulf of California.4:14 The crew practices sailing onto and off anchor without engine assistance, a maneuver they find essential for remote cruising.0:31 They have experienced severe motion sickness during offshore legs, emphasizing the need for preventative medication.9:33
