Well done Paul. You folks have a great sense of humor.
Thanks Matthew , yes they are a great bunch, check out my other videos when you have time for more fun, cheers Paul
Really, this was one of the very best raids! Thanks so much, Paul, for your generosity in "taking us along."
My pleasure Mike, as a long time viewer I'm grateful for your support and comments, cheers Paul
Misty Blue, beautiful!
A CLC Pocket ship, we have only 2 in the group , many more in the states, thanks for watching, cheers Paul
18:16 Just beautiful!
Thanks and thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Well done Paul another inspiring video ...7 boats my god my wife needs a good talking to ..gulpppp
My wife says to your wife enjoy the solitude😂😜😜😜😜😜
I just watched a couple of episodes from your channel. Absolutely fantastic. Thankyou ⛵️
Thanks you for watching, share with your friends, cheers Paul
Good tip on wheel bearings and grease seals. Grand winters day out, nice you have a great group of friends.
Thanks, Is it Olive I'm not sure? Yes Terry teaches automotive at TAFE and it's a great tip , thanks for watching, cheers Paul👍
@@SailingKateLouise Yup, Olive (moniker) or Fred . Either
Paul, I always like you videos but this one was great even though you had to wait out some weather. I really love how you talk to everyone and they share about their boats and projects. It is equally entertaining on and off the water. Looking forward to your next one.
Thanks, yes I'm lucky no one seems to mind being filmed , they are a great bunch of people, thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Very well Done! Looks like a good time. Cheers, Dolf
Hi Dolf, yes we had a good time. Thanks for watching and check out my other videos when you have a chance, cheers Paul
Another great video. Thanks Paul and all of the participants.
Very welcome, cheers Paul
Paul in this video you have outdone yourself excellent cinematography the natural beauty of your country is breathtaking and the camaraderie is priceless. Congratulations.
Many thanks again Roland and thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Wonderful sailing once the wind dropped!! I take my kayak sailing on days like that!!
Yes it 's a great place to kayak and sail, thanks for watching, cheers Paul
7 boats, that's impressive! And still married, that's even more impressive!
Yes, I was stunned....I can't wait to meet her, cheers Paul
Paul, I just want to thank you for I have no doubt that your beautifully filmed, edited and narrated videos add years to my life. I always feel so calm after watching your videos as if I had been sailing and camping myself. Thanks for another masterpiece and cheers mate!.......⛵⛵⛵
Wow, thank you! James such kind words and thank you for taking the time to comment, much appreciated, cheers Paul
Excellent Paul, I wish I could have stayed longer.Sunday Monday looked excellent.
Thanks Bruce, yes Sunday and Monday were fantastic. We could have gone all the way to mungo but it was going to change into a Northerly on Tuesday, which would have been more tacking all the way back. I hope you've got pants on now! cheers Paul
Thanks Paul! You’ve inspired me to go back to small boats….might just do a pocket ship myself. Tim
Go on Tim, if you do go a pocket ship, let me know and I can put you in touch with Terry , I'm sure he's got some good tips, cheers Paul
The pocketship looks pretty cool
Yes there are more in the states than here and a few in the U.K. Fast an easy to handle single handed, cheers Paul
That was thoroughly enjoyable as always. I thought your dinner look delicious.
Hi, yes the jack fruit was really good, the same texture as meat , I'm sure more of it will hit the supermarkets, it's grown in Queensland....a very large tree hanging fruit, cheers Paul
hilarious... great vid, keep them coming.
Thanks again for watching and leaving a comment, we had a lot of fun, cheers Paul
Wonderful, from every point of view.
Thanks you so much, check out Sailing Duyfken , slightly larger dinghies... more fun sailing Tallships, cheers Paul
Brilliant - again!
Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Very nice… great spot. Some lovely boats there. Will get to another raid one day.
Great, thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Always, such beautiful videos. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for watching and leaving a comment, cheers Paul
@SailingKateLouise what are you using for ground tackle?
A Danforth 6kg with 8 metres of 6mm chain and 30 metres of rode@@kimmccullough6802
I have a Mirror dinghy and I'm doing the final set up for doing some over nighting in the Pacific NW. Anchor is an 8lb Danforth with 10ft 5/16" chain and 120ft of 3/8" nylon 3 strand. Have played with it for days and finally found a 'logical?' position for the anchor. I will see in 2 weeks when I do my first overnighter. Gathering up my gear over the next few days to find 'logical?' positions for it. Reefs set up in the main and with 110 and 80% jibs ready to go. Sold my 24ft Bristol Corsair 4 years ago and am very excited for my first short cruise on my Mirror.
Please Kim send me a photo of your mirror sailing, I would love to share it. Send it to sailingkatelouise@gmail.com thanks Paul@@kimmccullough6802
Those magnificent men and their sailing machines 😀
Good I envy your sailing community. You really know how to have fun with your boats.
Mostly I sail solo on the local inlet and spend my time alone at harbour and anchorage.
Love your vlogs!!!
Love from Denmark
Thanks, I also like like sailing solo sometimes, gives you time to reflect and great for the soul. But you are very lucky to have some great waterways in Denmark, cheers Paul
Brilliant.
Thanks Mate
Thanks Paul, Very enjoyable video. Good to finish with beautiful days rather than blowing a gale. I think you should find out where Terry lives and drop your boat around. He will fix the outboard well in no time.
Thanks, yes it was worth the wait to get some good weather.Terry skills are incredible and I don't know where he finds the time. Anyway I'm in the process of shortening the outboard shaft so it doesn't sit so high in the well and can raise further hopefully without hitting the mizzen boom, Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
I reckon that pocket ship for under 10K was a comment made for her indoors....... great job regardless.
Hi, Terry's finish was incredible, but he has had a lot of experience and did a shipwrights course....beautiful boat and the 2nd pocket ship in the group....more in the U.S., cheers Paul
The quality of your videos is next level. Great job and keep up the excellent work. Appreciated 👍
Thanks mate. They take a while to put together, but I love it and sailing to....happy days. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment, cheers Paul
Haha Bruce is a legend! I'll be heading down there mid September.
Yes he is....I'm not sure yet whether I can make September, cheers Paul
Excellent video Paul! Terry is a hoot too! I picked up a couple of really smart ideas he used in his boat which will of course go in my new boat. I did find it humorous however that 30knot winds kept ya'll on land, we here in Texas especially on our Texas 200 raid have to "suck it up" and just go with it. Keep up the good work! Buddy.
Thanks Buddy....I reckon I would go over in 30 knots and don't really want to bail that much ( no self draining cockpit on Kate Louise). But I would love to do the Texas 200 one day, thanks for watching, cheers Paul
We'd love to have you Paul - Come On Up! @@SailingKateLouise
hey Terry,met you down berkeley harbour when i was putting my trailer sailer in,a Gem 550 ,and you put me onto this you tube site,so thank you,its very interesting,and it was good to see ya boat ya built,done a awsome job,well done,i didnt get out for sail that day tho,motor stoped right at the entrance to the harbour,thats a story an a half what happened then,but thats boating always an adventure a,cheers mate,nice talking with ya,
Thanks for watching Paul, cheers.
Your videos always make me happy, very much so.
Thanks for watching.....my wife thinks my laugh is like a cartoon dog, cheers Paul
Crikey Paul you just get better and better. In fact so good that I'd be too ashamed to use the new vid camera I bought about a couple of years ago. Have not even learnt how to switch it on after seeing your excellent work. I've just come back from 26 days sailing the Turkey Beach to the top of Curtis Island area first and then towed down to Urangan/sandy straits/Frazer Island area for the last half. Was out in some heavy stuff and nearly got around to take a bit of video from the phone, but too busy with the boat rounding up every now and then in the big chop. Tiller Pilot not a chance of steering. Keep up your excellent work please-------
Hi Peter sounds like a busy trip , I'll have to get up there one day. Turning on the camera is the easy part, holding it steady while sailing is another matter....as you found out. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Think I have found my calling! Back to sailing.
Great send me a photo of your boat, sailingkatelouise@gmail.com cheers Paul
Once again, a great inspiration to get out on the water! Really enjoy your videos.
Thanks Karl and thanks for commenting, cheers Paul
Muito bom seus vídeos.
Sou apaixonado por pequenos veleiros.
Sou do sul do Brasil.
Cidade de Porto Alegre.
Tenho um veleiro Delta 17 pés.
Sucesso e abração.
Ótimo, obrigado por assistir e por favor me envie uma foto do seu barco e eu colocarei em um vídeo, felicidades Paul
More magic from Paul and Kate Louise.
Just DEB!!!!
Thank you. gary
Hi Gary , yes I've gone back to the dark side Deb Potato with onion....which is often hard to find (plain is easy). Thanks again for watching, cheers Paul
Good friends, nice boats,, great living. Relaxing video. Thank you. Makes me want to get back out on the water.
Do it Thomas life is short, cheers Paul
Thanks Paul, another inspirational video! I hope to get up to the Lakes one day ... hey, maybe next April. From Melbourne it is a fair old
hike but your video reminds me it would be well worth it.
It will be worth the trip, great sailing and company especially in April, cheers Paul
Thanks for the ride. What a spectacular sail. I especially love the two-masters. They have a peculiar character to them that just draws the eye.
Couldn't agree more! and thanks for watching and commenting, cheers Paul
Good one Paul. Looks like you had Melbourne weather
aah! the rain...but it wasn't too cold, thanks again for watching, cheers Paul
"it's actually very good....I'm surprised...." cast him overboard! Your meals are always looking good Paul.
Thanks Jason....so kind, always trying to find meals that don't need a fridge....and Gary is still speaking to me, cheers Paul
I really enjoy your videos 👍One of your mates said you should do a top 10 of your dinghy sailing meals.
Great idea 👍
Great idea but I only make about 6 different ones😂 so I'll have to work on a few more...I think the camping cook book is a long way off. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
I really needed a sail on Kate Louise tonight. Perfect way to end my day Paul.
Your videography is simply outstanding.
Just beautiful!!!
Thanks!
Michael
Never Never Lake, Alaska
Thanks you Michael, Never Never Lake .....what a great name ,what's the story behind that? cheers Paul
Paul you are a lucky man to have such beautiful sailing waters nearby and a great group of friends to share it with! Thanks for the time and effort you put into your videos. You're an inspiration for me to get my dusty boat out of the garage and into the water. Looking forward to your next adventure from here in South Florida.
Thanks Jim and thanks for taking the time to leave a comment, much appreciated. South Florida ....how do you go in Hurricane season? that would scare me a lot? Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
What a lovely little film! Beautifully edited, and you obviously worked hard to show how windy it was - an incredibly difficult thing to do, but you've succeeded admirably! And now I've got all your other videos to enjoy - thank you!
Thank you very much! There are a lot....enjoy and share around, cheers Paul
Love your videos and the group of sailors you have with you. Cheers.
Thanks Jimmy.....we have a lot of laughs and some sailing, cheers Paul
Wonderful cruise - very beautiful shots! Even with that kind of food, it must have been great! Thanks for sharing!
Trust me the Jack fruit was great and a good meat substitute( I'm vego). Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Great episode thank you! Beautiful boats and lots of laughs 😂 👍👍
Thanks Cate ...yes we did have a lot of laughs....my wife thinks I sound the cartoon dog! Muttley, thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Great to see the raid was such a success even with the strong blow. I was on a bicycle tour getting blown around and wondering how the raid was going. Well done!
Thanks Rob, I hope we will catch up at Lake Macquarie soon, cheers Paul
Fantastic, a good bunch of friends.
Thanks Joe, yes we have a lot of laughs, thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Superb video, thanks for making it. I love the humour. And all the naked boats....
A vegetarian and a vegan decide to jump off a 50 storey building together to see who hits the ground first.
Who wins?
I'm told it's society, but I think that's a bit harsh, Ha Ha, cheers Paul
@@SailingKateLouise it is harsh, yes. Each to his own, I say. I really enjoyed the humour in this one. If you are ever stuck for a subject for a video, an in-depth and detailed look at that disappearing trailer from a few months ago would be interesting to me. I still think that is genius....and if the builder had drawings and plans I would be interested....
They are made by Mangrove Jack Marine, Port Kennedy, Western Australia. phone 08 9500 1709 or mangrovejack.com @@geoffreylotz3661
I really find it hard to believe that you only have 6+ thousand followers, love the channel!
Thanks mate, it's growing slowly....thanks for watching and tell your friends, cheers Paul
Professionally made well done Paul and you kept it interesting.
Thanks Ross and thanks for leaving a comment, cheers Paul
Just love all your videos! Thank you so much for sharing them!
Thanks Robert.....it's good to see the effort is appreciated, thanks again for watching and leaving a comment, cheers Paul
A lot of chuckles in this one Paul, one being Deb Potatos! Gary reminded me of a 6 year old playing with his food hoping it will go away on it's own. Hoping Bruce filmed his capsize, I'm sure he handled it well. Congrats on the "no motor" speed test and looking forward to what you come up with - stay well all
Thanks Rob, Gary did eat all of it, so It couldn't have been that bad....I don't think Bruce filmed the capsize but I will ask..he is fearless but very experienced. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Thanks once again Paul for another great meet and greet sail.
I'm always excited when i see you've posted.
Cheers from the orher side of the marble
Thanks Dave and thanks for taking the time to leave a comment, cheers Paul
must say that i am thoroughly enjoying your channel and that the content is brilliant and imformative.
Thanks Simon, just sharing the love, without bikinis and Patreon spruiking, cheers Paul
Best one so far Paul!
Thanks Mal, glad you liked it and thanks for leaving a comment, cheers Paul
very entertaining, great to see a multi day outing. Who woud have thought the outboard would cause so much drag.
Thanks, yes I reckon it's at least 2 knots, the difference was incredible....I feel like I have a New boat! thanks for watching , cheers Paul
I like your videos and your sailing friends seem like nice people.
Hi Derrick, yes they are a nice bunch of people and on each Raid I meet more, thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Yes the Sunday and Monday sails definitely made the trip. As you said, this is why we sail !
Thanks Phil and Brenda for coming and making it so much fun, cheers Paul
Always enjoyable. Looking forward to your builders working out how to do overland portage from one Myall lake system to another without a trailer or car.
Yes well...that one will be a while. ...but thanks for watching and suggesting😂 , cheers Paul
Great video Paul… good friends good sailing
Thanks for watching and leaving a comment, cheers Paul
Very fun video. Glad you shared the outboard drag. I was considering building a boat with that well design and now I'm sure to avoid it. The electric outboard looks more convenient. Might add a Jackery inverter and folding solar panels for backup. $$$ Like the idea of a cooking competition or just sharing more ideas on cooking on the boats. What are others cooking?
Hi Chuck, yes I want to get solar as well, that's the next project. What do the others eat ? I don't know...I'll ask in the next one. Thanks for watching again, cheers Paul
It really looks like you all have a good time during your group sail outings👍
Hi Anders yes the social side of sitting around a fire with a glass and a lot of laughs, is great for the soul, cheers Paul
Shame the weather didn’t fully cooperate, but it seems the comradeship of the RAID group mostly made up for the lost days. It must be great to be a part of.
Yes it was a lot of fun and the group seems to be growing, thanks again Rob, cheers Paul
A nice community of sailors and self builders there Paul. I like how you share ideas, recipies and info, as well as good times round the fire. Kate is still just ahead of Misty Blue in the beauty stakes, lol.
Oh thank you....but shhh don't tell Terry, thanks again, cheers paul
mmm, maybe next time Garry would love a steak and mushroom meal, with onion gravy and deb potatoes lol
Well I'm sure he would😂 but I'm not sure I could do justice to a steak on a little camping burner, thanks again for watching, cheers Paul
Enjoyed your video again Paul, as usual. Sorry i couldn't make it, family commitments intruded. Won't be able to have my maiden voyage for six weeks or so, but after that look out. Aimee is rearin' to go! Cheers.
Great Bill look forward to it and sailing with another Stornaway, cheers Paul
Provisioning for an upcoming 2 week cruise (part of that will be attending the Port Townsend Wooden Boat Festival here in Washington) and made sure to grab a bag of potato flakes "Red Mill" as we don't have "Deb" here but I think they'll work.
Great I wish I was going to the festival. Can you do me a favour and take a photo of the Red Mill packet so I can share it with my Australian viewers for a laugh. Ie " this is the American version of Deb" and send it to sailingkatelouise@gmail.com thanks Paul
Didn’t see anyone other ask … I believe you were at Johnson’s beach (last morning) Gary camping with his tent ⛺️ in the beach. There were some strange whistles (bird calls) n you panned up n there was a strange (to me) white headed bird n then a scene with a pair. I’m curious 🤨??? What are they..?? I know what the Bell Birds are but what were these ?? I’m eagerly trying to learn your Aussie bird Paul.
It was an amazing Raid n filming. Also liked the interviews with boat owners about their vessels. Very interesting bro.
Looking forward to the next. Our summer n gardening season about done n your running near the end of your flip/flap winter.
Cheers 🥂 Nick.
Hi Nick I'm not sure what the bird sounds were but the birds I panned up to were Kookaburras. They have a very distinctive laugh normally at dawn , google to hear. Thanks for watching again, cheers Paul
Hey mate. This looks like a stack of fun! When you are back in the Hawkesbury ill be keen to join a raid. I need an excuse to get out sailing.
Ill make sure to bring the dinghy so i can get ashore and actually socialise this time haha.
No worries, I think there are a couple of others guys that are keen to do the Hawkesbury again, cheers Paul
Nice to see you've found some speed, who'd have thought the motor would slow you down that much
Yes the difference was incredible about 3 knots I reckon. I'm now shortening the Torqueedo shaft, so I can raise it while sailing and hopefully not hit the mizzen boom. Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment, cheers Paul
Great to see an RL24 in the raid team
Yep, more and more boats are joining us on each Raid, thanks for watching, cheers Paul
8 months for a scratch build for a PocketShip, that's stunning. And great finition too. Does the man not sleep?
Hi Terry later said it was actually 6 months, but he didn't want to share that. Carpenter I would understand ,but TAFE auto teacher....incredible.Thanks for watching,
cheers Paul
Perhaps the ePropulsion outboard it’s 20kg so maybe lighter weight and easier to position.
Hi I'm shortening the shaft and I think I will have just enough room to raise it dagger style without hitting the mizzen boom , next few days will tell if I'm right. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Sold my boat because I didn’t like the humidity in the cabin when we woke up. Does it bother you as well? Is there a secret how to avoid it? Love your adventures. Cheers from Belgium. 😊
Hi, well being a timber boat and the Australian climate, I don't really get too much humidity in the cabin. There is always a through breeze which is nice especially in summer. However I do get condensation on the inside of the boom tent if there is no wind overnight...but that soon evaporates when the sun comes up. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Again another fine video. I'm wandering what the security is like at violet hill regarding your vehicle and trailer.
Hi Roger, well I have stayed there probably 20 times over the years and never had any trouble. I often lock the trailer. Rangers come every day and it's 20 mins from the main road but there are often campers there to keep an eye on things. Cheers Paul
Thankyou for your reply, I gather from your reply this is a state park. What are the costs for leaving your vehicle at this park. Cheers Rodger.@@SailingKateLouise
30knts? bah! lol done 30 in our Hartley TS16 crossing Queenscliffe to Sorento on Port Philip bay. Easier in deep water. How deep are the lakes? Edit we sailed 3 up. The other TS16 was 2 up crew.
Well 30 knots is too much for me and a lot of the others, so I take my hat off to you, thanks again for watching, cheers Paul
Brilliant videos Paul at the moment my sailing experience is limited to your productions and a few others. This may sound a little crazy as I have recently bought a Lune whammel! After many hours in the garden the rigging is almost second nature to me, almost. My query to you with a lifetime knowledge and based on Kate Louise being a similar sail configuration (with the exeption of my whammel has a second jib) which is easier to control a mainsail on a boom or without like Kate Louise? Mine càme with two mainsails The larger one requires the removal of the mizzen and quite frankly is so big I think it not for a begginer and as mizzens seem a low maintanance sail I get the feeling that is my starting point the cutter rig I think requires experience! Any advice would be welcome ?
Hi Andrew, Kate Louise is the first boat I've owned with a lugsail (no boom) and it's incredibly simple to sail and rig. A lugsail won't point as well as a main with a boom, but I have a main, whisker pole which in essence is a temporary boom, increasing the sail area presented to the wind when running downwind. Otherwise the main tends to collapse a bit( as there is no boom). I find the mizzen is easy to use, pretty much self tacking. I have a couple of times in light winds rigged my storm sail as a second headsail (like your cutter rig) and it works well. I would stick with the smaller main and cutter rig as it would be easy for you to furl one of the headsails if it gets a bit breezy. Thanks for watching and send me a photo of you on the water (sailingkatelouise@gmail.com), cheers Paul
Hi Paul I’m new to dinghy cruising and was wondering if you have done a video on mooring / anchoring up to the beach or bank. Cheers
No I haven't but I will in the next one. I don't know where you are in the world but here in the lake systems we sail in there is very little tidal range unlike the U.K. or France....so anchoring is relatively strait forward as long as you don't drag, thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Are there WWP 19s where you are? Great trailer sailer boats .
Hi I haven't come across one yet but I know there are quite a few in the states, please send me a photo of yours, cheers Paul
When are you and the team going to the Whitsundays? Great videos btw.
Hi Paul, well one day hopefully, but it is quite a long way north. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
Hi Paul, I'm up at Port and sail my little Challenger 20 ts. Is you Myal Lakes raids a regular occurrence?
Hi well not regular but 3 or 4 times a year. Go on facebook: Raid Sydney, sailing, rowing and camping, look under the events tab for upcoming get togethers, cheers Paul
@SailingKateLouise I don't have fb but I'll sort it out. Thanks for getting back to me. It looks like you have great getaways. I was showing my wife the videos, and she said it looks fun.
Is this a tidal area.what is the rise and fall.😊
Hi, yes Myall lakes is just tidal, about 10 cms. The water has to travel about 14kms to get to the lake so very little tidal effect. Thanks for watching, cheers Paul
how many hundreds of thousands of dollars have you caused husbands to argue with wives over - the world over :P
inspirational content - thank you paul !
Well I often stay awake at night thinking about that....but then fall asleep and dream of the next sailing day!!! After all you are only young once....live for today. Thanks for watching and leaving a comment, cheers Paul
p.s dinghies are relatively cheap...get one.
As my wife points out if you name the boat after her it's all good....but mine is named after my daughters. Much to my wife amusement😂
If you fellas are putting up with wives who are inclined to spoil your fun, and who for that reason are deceived into not knowing your plans? You really should get divorced and get on with your lives. Or are you afraid of the financial cost of such a venture? Don’t let them spoil it for you mate, they won’t have benevolent considerations for you , when they meet some trendy fella with more money than sense. I didn’t see any women with their own boats there? Such a shame, inclusivity is often more fun. Isn’t it? Thanks for the vid.
Hi Jim, yes there are a couple of wives who come just not on this Raid, cheers Paul
