How’s the new career and course going?

yeah that poses a very good question even if on lowest setting and too warm with hatches closed because raining and very cold outside how to get rid of the excess heat?

Any excuse to break the diet, looked fab, just need the Sailing Brothers to watch this and up their game too.

You made some really interesting comments on your Paramedic Science degree. My Daughter has just qualified this year and can relate to the access course being challenging compared to the degree. The last year will go quick enough. Good luck on the rest of it.

I can't get the sound of fork being scraped on that cast iron out of my head! Pancakes and dropped scones next week? Good to see your busy at the cooker again. Sandy

Yummy!! Thanks for the pineapple advice!

Nice video, as always

Best thing in cast iron skillet is what gets stuck on it and then scraped off for the sauce. Fingerlicking delicious.

Can we expect a bikini shod babe in the next one? 😂

Not french cuisine, but hearty and tasty. A good sailors dinner on a rainy evening. But if you want to open a bottle of white wine anyway, a bit of this wine would improve your gravy for sure. Kind regards from a Jester

looked lovley

Nice skillet.. Treat it well and you will have it for ever...

Hi! Does the inox skin fitting holds well along time? Is it an ebay one? Thanks much

Good call on cancelling that trip. I'm on the SW Irish coast and I've never seen a Summer where the weather has been so continuously unpredictable. Not only can you not trust it to be stable for as little as 24 hours, but the wind can vary from nothing to F7 AND box the compass over a few hours. You'd have taken a real kicking on that trip any time in the last few months and for the foreseeable. On Pollock, best I've heard is crush and layer on a packet of cheese and onion crisps and grill or bake.

What adhesive did you use?

This is, to me, horrible viewing. I want to be there.

Bad luck with the weather, anyway you probably couldn't have afforded a coffee and a croissant here in Ireland ...we barely can!

To my absolute shame. Am running the same impeller 16 years! Always worried to fit new chinesium as won't last more than couple of years. !!

You are better being over-stocked with fuel and try to keep one spare can in reserve in case the main tank gets contaminitaed. Fair Winds.

Used to catch a lot of pollock, and an old fisherman friend suggested sprinkling the raw fillets with lemon and air drying overnight uncovered in the fridge to firm it up and concentrate the flavour.

Thanks for filming not just the perfect days!

If you have cracked it, does that mean time for a new boat?

That was very enjoyable. Thanks for the beer batter demo. I have the same 2 burner gas stove in my galley, which means as long as I do every step the same, it will come out as good!

Yummy fish 🐟. I sometimes mix a little bit of smokey paprika or red pepper in my batter. It gives the fish a bit of flavor. 💖⛵🐕

About failing gear... all too often when the gear finally stops failing b'cause everything had been upgraded, refurbished or fixed - well, then you sell the boat 😆

The elderly issue is prevalent in the US as well. Sad.There's always bingo.

Oh dang. I want to see you make that wind vane!!! Please document it. I have been toying with the idea myself.

They turned out to be an impressive pair of pollocks in the end.

Looks like the type of fish that chips are next to. How's the bottom?

I feel your frustration! This season has been a write off for me with little chance of getting many miles in for the rest of the year. Ive still managed to spend a fortune on the boat! I'm beginning to question my sanity.

Great to see you back👍

Now that some time has passed what is your verdict? Would you buy another cheap heater? I see that a water/air heater version is now being offered, I’m thinking of buying as calorifier is very old.

dont know what the hell to do on mine - getting C28 code but it wont even crank either - dont even know if its a multi-issue at this point.

Good to see you back. When are you starting your cooking channel?

I am also on a similar journey, age 54 and just passed my 1st year of a maths degree and now will enjoy the break and get some sailing done.

Shit I’m 51 and over weight, I’m fooked I need to change my lifestyle, I don’t want my kids to have to take that phone call

Your comments on the situation with old folks hit home with me. As you know I am rebuilding my Twister, I also have a 86 year old mother who basically needs 24 hr care but we are not putting her into a home - she wouldn't have it and we don't want to trust her to people we do not know anyway. I have chosen to live at the family home with both parents, and I share the care duties with Dad who himself is 85 but still mobile. I have to work 5 days per week to make ends meet, then in evenings I relieve Dad to help with Mum. I have a half day off on Saturday when I drive a couple hours to see the progress on my boat (I had to employ a boat building buddy because I have no time) and then on Sunday Dad has a day off to go play bowls or similar to give the poor fella a break. I'm mid 50's and frankly I don't know how I do it or where I get the energy from, but I just carry on and do what needs to be done. Unfortunately I have three siblings who do practically zero to help, two of them have adult children so little excuse, and the one who gets the pass is the third sibling with two kids under 10. This all sounds like a bit of a whinge, and I am somewhat pondering what I am doing writing this on a public forum like this - but what I am highlighting here is that they way modern kids seem to abandon their elderly parents is pretty disappointing, and I am not going to be a part of that club.

Great video…very much agree with you about families in the UK

Hey, great to see you again

great to have you back

Nice video. Is that a belge keel? If so, how would you copare it vs your previous boat?

Good to see you again skipper. Dont be old and fat he says, as he squirts some more mayo on his burger!! Looked delicious!

Long awaited video! Regarding your experience in uni, I know exactly what you are going through! Hang on tight, you'll excell! And after all that, you are sailing again. When you think about it, you are the richest man on earth 😊. Edit: your experiences in your new career certainly puts life's priorities in the proper order...

Welcome back mate!

Very impressive sailing. It's way beyond me, but great to see a smallish boat out in the ocean, and to get a realistic view of what goes on. Half the time cold, wet, knackered, uncomfortable and kind of hating it, but also loving it, it seems! I recognise that mix of feelings anyway. Great video, thanks.

Whats the latest Justin?

Thank you mate, very helpful vid as i will be drying my long keel out tomorrow

AIS transponder YES! I’ve a corribee 21 that I take out ‘beyond swimming range’ and I swear by it. It’s made by digital yachts and works though my iPad. Enjoyed your 2021 Azores jester films.. wise man to know when things don’t feel right…

Remarkable stuff, I’m thinking I will do my merlin in it

Great video ⛵️👏
