    The thing that makes your videos so good is that they are authentic, for example the micropause during this video when someone talks over the radio and everyone become silent, listen to the message, answer the person over the radio and then the show continues, this is what makes the show autenthic and real! Awesome! Keep up the good work!

    You have true class in the way you interview your subjects in that you allow them to talk uninterrupted and stay out of their way. Not even talk show hosts have that kind of class and style!

    What a wonderful video showcasing the chef onboard AWOL. It's a dynamic team that makes everything work so seamlessly together. It's also the sign of a wonderful captain to make his team shine with the brilliance they deserve.

    A relaxed Chef makes for good food - and you have a relaxed Chef who clearly knows his profession. Well done James!!
    Plus, as Skipper, you clearly have a good understanding of what makes a team work when they are dealing with demanding customers who, quite rightly, expect value for their money.
    I cannot afford to charter AWOL - but if I could, I would!
    My best wishes to you and your remarkable crew.

    Being married to a man involved in the supply side of food, I totally loved this video! He will be in multiple establishments in a day; a Mom & Pop establishment with simple home-cooking, a beach bar, fried seafood establishments, and fine-dining restaurants. Not all chefs like non-essential people (much less cameras!) in their kitchens, so thank you for letting us have a peek!

    • @TheByard
      @TheByard 3 года назад

      It's all the timings a chef has going on in his mind, one stupid question can throw the thought train and the meal is ruined. I've had that's done to me so often and I'm no chef let alone a cook, if it turns out OK that's a huge bonus if it doesn't the dogs happy.

    Having worked on several Warships both big and small it's interesting to see how many of the aspects of how your galley operates is very similar to how a small patrol boats galley works, the rich and famous being the Captain and his Officers. very interesting video.

    The chef's job may be the most difficult job on the boat. I'm sure some people can be extremely difficult to please, especially when they are paying a very high price for a charter. I like comment Chef James made when he said, "They say they eat everything but they don't." I think we all understood.

Big kudos for turning out such beautiful dishes. Keep up the good work, all of you

    In the week or so (less than that) that it's taken me to watch all your videos since I discovered your channel, I've seen your subscriber count rise from 18k to 23k (myself included). It appears the algorithm has noticed you, and I believe it to be very deserved. You not only provide a fantastic window into a world which is otherwise largely unknown, but you and your crew also display a level of humanity and pride in your work that are frankly a joy to behold. I wish you all the best going forward.
