    Thank you so much Barry, you dear Ole man of the sea. You and white shadow make a neat pair. Have watched you from the beginning with no regrets and you are the best! Am I wrong or did you trim your hair off, if so you look a lot better. Love to hear your theme song at the end as it brings back sweet memories of your beginnings at sea. Take care my good friend and God bless you and also keep an eye out for those UFOs in the skies or Waters, over and out.❤❤❤

    One thing I like about this channel is that you make it quite clear that this voyaging life is not all harps and flowers. There is a lot of gritty, hard work involved, along with a lot of discomfort.
    And it comes with its share of risk and anxiety, just like shore life does.

      Barry's fine...he made it to Bundaberg, Australia, spent some months there, (personally I'm of the opinion he flew home for a visit) then last AIS contact had him sailing out of Cairns, Aus. about 46 days ago.
      Since then, he's turned off the AIS 🛶.

      Completely agree with this statement! I watched the next epiode first then came back to this one.... Vanuatu is such a lovely friendly place, we loved it when we were there. What a terrible waste to have all those vehicles tossed into the sea. Not able to be used by the locals, not to mention the environmental damage it would pose as well. Thanks so much for the honest but positive posts.... I have really enjoyed watching your posts.

    Put a small fresh silica gel sachet from its air tight container inside the housing, if you can fit one in. This is what we used to do with the larger camera housings--put it in about half an hour before you take it under the waves. They are cheap and one buys about twenty of them for about twenty dollars,

    Great vid this week. I was in Vanuatu in 1975/6 on the SS Arcadia. We dived on the Coolidge and took all the fuel out of her onto the the Ark which had the same engines. This was because of the fear of an earthquake which could damage the Coolidge and pollute the sea. P&O bought the fuel at a bargain price.
    Good to see that they now have an exhibition of the Coolidge. Good luck Barry

    So I always keep abreast of TOSD’s vlogs. Just keep up your travels and keep us all informed.

    You truly are an Old Sea Dog! ( I mean that in the kindest way) Watching you sail White Shadow around the seas is inspiring as well as worrying sometimes, as you need an upgrade on some of the equipment you are using if not another vessel. Perhaps a crowd fund is inevitable?
    Watching you from the comfort of home in London and having just visited the Southampton Boat Show yesterday it amazes me you do so much with limited resources. Some of the big boat manufacturers should sponsor you as you do so much for the yachting community by bringing in new people to the delights and sometimes reality of sea life.
    Obviously you left us hanging with this episode and I wish you well and safe passage to Australia.
