Solo boating to Sweden. P6/35. Cold-blooded or Stressful? s4/e29

- Опубликовано: 2 окт 2024
- Since I arrived in Germany via the Eider river, I enter the Nord-Ostsee Canal, or Kieler Canal half way at Gieselau. People complain about the boringness of this canal, but because this is the first time for me, there is enough to see. The journey seems to go smooth overall until I found out that the remote of both bow- and stern thruster does not work, the wind is astern AND I am already in the Kiel-Holtenau locks and must dock within a couple of seconds. Oops. But before that occurs, we have a wonderfull journey.

Cams aboard Lady Liselot. Check them out on Amazon: amzn.to/3P5jFxP (but the silly thing is: these amzn.to/3T1AYB2 almost are alike).
The 4 camera's I use to produce my outdoor footage, are so called PTZ - P(an) T(ilt) Z(oom). Zoom, I only use on the rear camera, when I am underway. As you have seen I use the pan and tilt a lot. And in the dark they produce a great (short view) infrared image. I even can navigate in a marina at night on my cams.
Since they all are so called "IP camera's", each have an unique (hardwired) IP address (no DNS) in my network.

Bound for Sweden. P6. Cold-blooded vs Stressful. Thrusters Do Not Work In The Holtenau Locks; s4/e29
This channel follows a format: "Join Henk-Jan, whilst he cruises on motorvessel Lady Liselot through The Netherlands and a little further". That's it. This automatically means: no boat tour and no boat jobs. These subjects do not fit the format. So, I aim to give you a feel for what life's like aboard for me and hope you enjoy it, perhaps relate to it or maybe even learn something. But it's simply my story and the way I do things. Nothing more, nothing less.

Nederlands.
Waarom ik alles in het Engels doe?
Omdat ik video's kijk van Fransen, Denen, Noren, Spanjaarden, Portugezen, Duitsers én heel veel Engelstaligen die allemaal Engels lullen en ook bootjesmensen / liveaboards zijn. Want alleen dan kan je je ervaring wereldwijd delen. En wat blijkt? Mijn video's worden in 127 landen bekeken (zie S03/E01 voor de lijst). Veel van mijn kijkers en abonnees zijn Engelstaligen die mijn video's helemaal top vinden, omdat ze óf familie hebben uit Nederland, of hier jaren geleden zijn geboren en door omstandigheden nu elders op de wereld wonen. En, dat ik dan Engels spreek met een accentje (net als de Fransen, Denen, Noren, Spanjaarden, Portugezen, Duitsers overigens) dan interesseert hen dat helemaal niets.
Oh en dan nog wat. Ik schrijf dit in het Nederlands, omdat vrijwel uitsluitend Nederlanders hier last van hebben, dus als je dit ken lesuh, lees het dan goed door: Deze video is bedoeld als entertainment. Vermaak. Geen "Zo moet het", geen "Ik weet het beter dus je moet deze video kijken," neen, puur vermaak. Dus, als jij tijdens het kijken er iets van vind, en je denkt dat je het beter weet, ga dan niet op een Facebook manier zitten zeiken, maar schrijf een compliment. Ik heb niet uren met dat bootje gevaren, en uren al het filmmateriaal zitten selecteren en zitten plakken, om vervolgens door een zeikstraal de les te worden gelezen. Doe je het wel, dan heb ik als eigenaar van dat kanaal een wonderknopje van RUclips gekregen: "remove user from channel." Die gebruik ik regelmatig. Donder alsjeblieft op en ga op Facebook je onnoemelijke wijsheid delen of begin een bijbelgroepje en ga daar zitten preken.
Weet je dat Nederlandse ondertiteling aan kan zetten? Doorgaans zo'n 4 uur nadat de video is gepubliceerd. Klik op de video, en kies uit de iconen die rechtsonder verschijnen dan voor [ondertiteling] en kies daar voor Nederlands. Dan wordt zelfs mijn steenkolen Engels (knap he van die jongens en meisjes RUclips) vertaald naar Nederlandsch.
Henk-Jan, I took your advice and am enjoying a Saturday afternoon sitting on the banks of the St. Croix River, Minnesota with the dogs, sipping a pint of Guinness, watching the boat traffic on the river, and of course, watching your weekly video! Cheers. Dan😎
Hey Dan. Cheers to you. There is a Dutch singer who has a song: "Look at me, whilst I watch the grass grow. And man, I am way to busy for other things." I know that feeling. Being in the moment. All you can do.
@@MVLadyLiselot Life is very good and there’s nothing like being on the water to calmly reflect on the good life these last 82 years!😉
Nice little cruise on the canal. nice to see the Stattin still able to sail along the canal. Thank you for a great stream
Many thanks for your entertaining (as always) video. 23 minutes well spent watching it. Good to see you going further afield.
Another excellent video. I always like videos of the Kiel Canal since there is usually a good amount of traffic sailing along and you get a good view of the ships. From time to time I like to watch at the webcam at the lock!
Thank you. Yea the webcam has something of a ‘rail away’ TV series.
Nice passage through Kiel Canal. The locks at Holtenau and Brunsbüttel are stressful for the first time, but one gets used to it as long as there is no big ship where one has to share the lock with. If you have to share a lock with one of these big guys, beware of the propeller stream when passing.
Thanks for sharing the Püschowhafen anchor spot... while sailing this area for 20 years, I was not at that spot yet :) Heikendorfer Reede is quite nice, too, but yes, can be uncomfortable at strong westerly winds. So you made a good choice!
BTW when travelling back, I recommend going through Brunsbüttel and stay a night at the Brunsbüttel marine in the canal (not the one outside). It's a very interesting spot where you can watch all the big ships entering the huge lock.
Hey Julian, I really do not understand the rings. Denmark, Sweden, no one has cleats, all have these rings, which are bad for singlehanded because one has to get of the boat or help from a neighbor but I think that mooring option is very dangerous. Very unsafe. Oh, and my tanks are almost empty so I will make a pitstop at Helgoland again to pickup 2000 ltr. The Eider is the best starting point for that jump.
@@MVLadyLiselot I agree, rings are a pain when traveling solo. I have no clue why rings are used at all, I can't see any advantage of this mooring option either.
Have a nice stay on Helgoland, when you get there it should be much less crowded than last time :)
If you're there and you didn't already walk around the island on the Oberland: I can highly recommend it. And note all the explanations along the way, they tell a lot about the interesting history of Helgoland.
I’m a new subscriber and look forward to more informative boating! From Guelph, Ontario,Canada!
Well ‘Hello and welcome’, then to you. If you like… I have made some playlists so you can binchwatch some of the previous videos.
3:50 I would post a meme about traffic tickets but I'm afraid someone from UN would arrest me and extradite me to Europe.
Where do you live? Perhaps Europe is a better place to stay. Check that and then decide what to do.
I don't know much about boating, so I have a question or two.
Is it perfectly fine to use only one engine at a time if you have two? I thought both had to be running at the same speed.
I dream about my own boat one day, and I have a lot to learn then.
Two engines is just handy for maneuvering. So I have two running when I maneuver, but other than that, you can run one engine. You have to be aware of the drives (between engine and prop) you have.
There are drives which heat up during 'freewheeling'.
But... I have "Velvet" drives and the manual states:
On the Velvet transmissions, passive turing of the prop shaft also turns the oil pump and no damage to the transmission can ensue.
Freewheeling: "It has been determent bij tests and practical experience that all Velvet Drive Marine Transmissions can be freewheeled without risking damage in sailing or trolling applications."
Caution should be taken to be sure that proper oil level is maintained during freewheeling as well as normal running.
Freewheeling one propellor on a two engine boat at trolling speed will not cause damage to the transmission connected to the freewheeling propellor."
Bedankt Henk, Was weer een mooie tocht op de Lady Liselot van net voor bij de sluis naar net voor bij de volgende sluis met een veranderende landschap naar meer stedelijk gebied bedoel ik, het was weer erg gezellig en kijk weer uit naar jou volgende show volgende week zaterdag?
Tot nu toe lukt het tijdens de reis bijna altijd om in het weekend de video te uploaden. Er is te veel te zien en te beleven hier. ;-)
Pleasure crafts are not allowed to be on Kiel canal after sunset, that’s why it got busy
Howdy from a waterfront proprty in Arizona USA ;-)
Cheers!
Thanks for sharing!
Come to Finland. Hangö is nice, and the Kvarken Archipelago is absolutely worth it. On the UNESCO list.
Sorry man, I have other plans, and Finland is not one of them. ;-)
Hello GOOD!!!!!!
What is that brick you had with your coffee?, I find it looking delicious.
In the Netherlands we call them "Mergpijpjes". Her sisters in Denmark are called "Trastammer" and in Sweden the call them "Punsch Rular".
👍
Why not mention "through Denmark" on the way
Please explain.
Sanity- a few minutes of sanity after watching World News!
Perhaps you already know, that I stopped watching the news. First, it’s old news and most of the time they share only the (very) negative info.
To me it feels as poison for my mind and since I do not drink poison, why should I listen and watch poison? My opinion and (as always one agrees with himself…) since I stopped absorbing negativity, things do look more positive. Duhuh. I know.
Mother Theresa once said:”If you invite me for a protest against war, I will not attend. When you invite me for a protest for peace, I am the first to be there.”
But that’s the same! Nope it’s not. The first makes you shout and relive negativity for as long as the protest goes on, the second concentrates on positivity.
Little change in words, enormous impact.
@@MVLadyLiselot It is a shame that people have not learned to get along
You mean like a snail! A snake is fast.
Yep. That is the benefit of making mistakes, it give others the opportunity to help you and feel good about it.
@@MVLadyLiselot I have seen you docking in Helgoland. I was on the opposite side with my 16 m boat.
Wow, so you where on the crowded side?
@@MVLadyLiselot Yes, when we came in July 30., we were lucky it was not that crowded only 3 boats in a row. You came in a few hours later. You docked just behind the big old sailing boat.
The max speed in the Nord Ostsee Kanal is 15 km/h (8 knots).
Page 4 of the "Guidance for operators of recreational craft Kiel Canal" states:
Maximum speed
The maximum speed of 12 km/h over the ground must not be exceeded.
Then I was always sailing too fast.
