    Vince did a great job on the cabin. Sam that could be your northern command! Sam that is about the calmest I have ever seen the ocean off Ireland the sea is so flat. Wind is usually 35kts and the sea is 20ft tall!! My you continue to have good weather, say hi to Vince, God bless and good winds.

    I remember a line from a movie once an American was talking to a Northern Irelander,
    "In America our oldest houses are 250 years old!"......to which the Northern Irelander replied "Our newest houses are that old!"

    Just saying I really like your videos. In a previous video I made a comment that one thing thing I enjoy about them is you get right to it. Other RUclips channels spend/waste a minute of the video with canned music and drone footage. It’s over production. You’re a are raw but a little refined. Thanks for sharing and producing just good video.

    All that gentle, near-calm, wind is one of the reasons the UK is currently having a little energy crisis. The UK gets almost 25% of its electricity from wind turbines. And wind generation has been down by more than 50% over the past month. Many UK energy suppliers have been forced into bankruptcy.
    Slow and comfortable sailing. But bad news for many UK energy consumers.
