"Don't forget who you are" - Tom Cunliffe
The sound of the clock ticking at the end really drove that home.
Amen. 👍🏼
Tom, your ripping yarns are keeping me sane in these times.
I must have re-watched every one of your videos during Covid.
I am a Japanese marine biologist working in Scotland as whale and dolphin researcher.
I am usually out on 52ft gaff ketch built in the early 1980s in Seattle.
So I know what you mean regards the chart tables.
Sadly due to current restrictions, research sailings haven't happened this year.
Thank you so much for keeping my spirits up with your fantastic and informative videos and ripping yarns.

Welcome to Scotland, I hope your studies bear fruit.
HalleluYAH! Indeed it is a wonderful thing to be alive under the heaven and on a decent boat...
"We need a bit of soul in our lives..." Hear, hear... Just love your reflections...
What a gent you are TC.. love it. What a thing it is to be alive under the heavens - on a decent boat... marvelous
Bloody love Tom Cunliffe......what a fella!
Cheers Steven. Thanks for watching. Tom
Thanks Tom, always appreciate your "fireside" chats!
Yes, I agree. Thank you so much Tom. I always look forward to listening to you.
I think this might be the best sailing video ever. Go where your soul takes you.
The inspiring Lord Hamilton quotation quickens the engaging tone, Tom, as does the Fathers' Day Card! May fair winds and safe voyages accompany you both.
Tom Cunliffe, the Jack Hargreaves of the sea.
You know that is exactly what I thought when I got to the end of the video. There was a great programme. I think Tom is rather more jolly than Kack was but still the same love for his pastime and surroundings. Andy UK
I enjoy these videos as much as the Out of Town shows with JH
The Fred Dibnah of the waves.
This video always cheers me up. Thanks Tom.
Thanks Tom, An interesting and essential juxtaposition of the chart and the plotter. When I take newbies out I take the fuse out of the plotter. All to often these young 'uns treat yachting like a video game. I've had them staring at the plotter rather than use the mark one eyeball. Only the chart gives the "Big Picture". I gradually allow them to use the GPS to plot positions. After a while they go and sail with someone else ...... Tight Lines, Birmingham Navy, Solihull-on-Sea.
I just love your knowledge around sailing and wonderful story telling.
I just cleaned mine off after watching your vid. Omy.....I actually have a NAV table!!! I knew it was here somewhere!
Right on Tom! 👏👏👏
An informative ... yet very touching video.
As someone who sails a M44, it's always a treat when I see how you set up and maintain Constance. She truly sets the standard as the finest example of the boat.
Thank you.
Thanks Bud for your kind words about Constance. The Masons are exceptional boats and the owners in a class of themselves. I'm always delighted by their expert opinions. Tom
Tom, I think you may be the nicest human ever to have existed, keep em coming ... love it !!!!
Tom: Your videos are just fantastic! As an American, I find them a highly therapeutic way to deal with worsening "Trump stress". (Cognac helps also, just so you'll know...)
Thanks Raymond for your kind words. I'm really pleased that Monsieur Cognac and myself can help out in these times. Tom
Thanks Tom, you’ll never know how much you’ve helped so many with your tales and humour 👏🏻
I decided to start my morning with this video, so happy I did. Thank you Tom. You are like an old friend I have yet to meet.
Thanks for watching Todd. Maybe we'll cross tacks one of these days. Tom
Lovely. Thank you very much for showing your chart table. It is an almost intimate place.
Slocum bought his chronometer for a dollar from a junk shop and had to boil it in oil to get it working and then sailed all the way around the world all alone... even after chased by pirates offa Gibraltar and even after a goat ate his straw hat.
Oh how I marvel how stories are told by those who've been upon the seas... and none better than our friend Tom... so fortunate are we
what lovely bloke
You are one very decent and fine man Tom. There is nobody better on the internet at telling a story or educating listeners. I could listen to you for hours. I would have loved an uncle like you.
... left with the sound of the clock ticking... Beautiful.
I enjoyed everything, and the chart table.
Tom, you are the pope of the sailing cathedral!
“It isn’t always the man who is good in the judgement of this world who excites the loyalties of his fellows.” Wise words indeed and words that should be engraved in all our hearts. Those that don’t will suffer bitterness in life and probably a lifetime subscription to the Daily Mail, too.
Thanks Tom!
Thanks Nick. Liked your sentiment. Tom
Thanks for another inspiring episode
Thanks very much for watching. Tom
What a great piece, and I'm totally w you on the charts, as a pilot all my adult life, I've always carried paper charts w me in the cockpit, for the exact same reasons you mentioned. And I too think that modern electronics, smart as they may be, have no soul. They don't listen when you talk to them, they have a mind of their own that messes with you just when you don't need it, and you can't hold them lovingly in your hands and think of all the wonderful places they've taken you to & through. So I think you're spot on w all you said here Mr Cunliffe, cheers 👍🏼😄
Many thanks mate. I love proper charts and my study is actually papered with them. They are old fathoms ones. I even have one of the White Sea with the WW2 minefields noted. Tom
Tom's yarns, a North Star for sanity and navigation in an uncertain world. 🗺 ⭐ 💗
Thank you Tom. 👍🏼 🇬🇧 😊
My pleasure Skipster. Thanks for watching. Tom
I spritz IV saline solution in my face with a strong fan when I listen to you.
"second star to the right, and straight on till morning." Sail on to NeverLand.
Good stuff shippers
Always enjoy your videos and advise, many thanks
Thanks John. Glad you enjoy them. Tom
Wonderful Tom. Your videos are such a tonic.
Love your work Sir.
Thanks for letting me know Paul. Much appreciated. Tom
Brilliant Tom !
Thanks Steven. Glad you enjoyed it. Tom
Love it. Good thoughts, good navigation, good outcome!
Thanks Tim. Good to know you enjoyed it. Tom
Brilliant, so human and thoughtful. Well done sir.
Many thanks for watching. So pleased you liked it. Tom
You could happily listen to this even if you had no interest in sailing.
I suspect you don’t know you have an interest in sailing until you see a few of these, then you discover hundreds of them!. Wonderful stuff.
Well that was just fantastic!
Thanks Matt. That means a lot to me. Tom
Lord Nelson was an exemplary leader. I love that he wouldn't ask his crew to do anything he wouldn't do himself. Thanks for the tour!
My pleasure Eric. I'm giving a speech next week on Trafalgar Night. Looking forward to my tot! Tom
+1. Just lovely. Keep going !
Thank you! Will do! More vids coming up soon. Tom
love the closing quote
Thanks Andrew. Tom
Thanks Tom, love your stories. I like your Tapestry beside the chart table too.
Yes a good barometer is essential on a small boat in a large ocean
I’m with “Tristram Sidey” I like the sound of Sir Tom Cunliffe...
To be alive and able to listen to you, Tom. Thanks.
Thanks for watching. Tom
Tom..Another Great Videoclip of Your Sea Adventure..Life ! ( Would Pay some Hard Cash, Gold Dust, or Sausage Gravy & Biscuits..to Hear you Read from Edgar Allen Poe, Dickens, Or ‘Ryme of the Ancient Mariner..Cole wasn’t it ? ) ..BTW..Sailed from Maui/ HI. to Tonga to many other Remote Destinations,on a 48’ft. Colin Archer ,Double Hull Gaff rigged Tan Bark in the mid 80’s ..5 years ..Best Voyage of my Earlier Years Did it with a Best Friend..Memories...( Seen ‘ Green Flash’ 4 x ) about to Order a Solid Fuel Stove from your mates at Frakes ..Great Advice..Thanks ! Michael < 🇺🇸
Hi Michael. You won't need any sausages or the like. If you search diligently you'll find several poems that I read, right down at the bottom of my RUclips vids. They were what I started with, but didn't seem very popular. Not the Ancient Mariner, but some grand sea poems nonetheless. Tom
Well done me old fruit ,you do breathe life😁🇬🇧👍
Thank you kindly Richard. Tom
Weaving your magic Tom
Cheers
Good advice about back checking to paper of obstructions, had quite a few claims where clients have hit items that they hadn't spotted on The screen.
Yes Ben. I've been expert witness in a few court cases about that too. Tom
Thanks Tom. There's a certain warmth and sincerity that comes across in your vids. I enjoyed this one
Lovely.
Very enjoyable video as usual Tom. I have had a portrait of Nelson for years too, but below mine it has my favourite Nelson quote "Always mistrust anyone who speaks ill of your King and hate a Frenchman as you hate the devil' Regards, Buster.
Thanks for sharing Tom. Always a real inspiration.
My pleasure! Glad you enjoyed it. Tom
The best thing I've seen on RUclips for ages.
Thank you.
Thanks Tony. You're too kind. Tom
Good evening everyone from wellington Somerset in the UK
Good evening from an ex-Frome, Somerset. Now Charente, France
David Bone Good morning from Carlsbad, California.😀
Ah love this. Great to hear from you Tom. Lovely to introduce us to all the sailing *and* personal items at your "office" and how you go about planning.
Hi Tom many thanks for this video, I really like your videos and totally agree, with the paper card works, I always use them for planning the route and also plot a corse line, it gives much better overview especially regarding the dangers on the way...Please allow me the compliment, you are not only a very sympatic man, but most of all extremely experienced, there are so many things I could learn from you, have a good time and look after yourself best regards from Austria, Alex
Thanks Alex. I'm pleased to have reached you. All the best
Tom
So good
Many thanks Tom. Tom
US Navy vessels are austere and devoid of most personal touches except in the bunks of the sailors. Out of sheer habit, I have kept my own boat that way, without really thinking about it. This video has encouraged me to personalize my cabin a bit.
Hi Ajax. I'm really pleased the video gave you some food for thought. Thanks for letting me know. Tom
A good adventure begins, with a good CHART on paper... Always.
Well said Andre. Tom
I enjoyed this.
Thanks for watching. Tom
Wonderful 😁
Lovely!
Perfect Tom, your videos and commentary are always uplifting and inspiring, long may they continue. Andy UK
Thank you, I enjoyed the company for lunch and am returning to my work a bit wiser and thankful for day.
I love your videos.
Thanks William for watching. Tom
Wise words as ever. Thanks tom.
You sir are a wonderful thing. Thank you
Thanks Mark for watching. Tom
Three thumbs up! Always love his salty vlogs on cruising and navigation, from his yacht Constance. Well Done as always!
Many thanks. Very pleased you're enjoying them. More to come! Tom
That was very uplifting, thank you Tom.
One more great broadcast!!
Also thanks for the tip for reading. Great book The Shadow In The Sands.😀
Great minds think alike!
I love my paper too and use the plotter to verify.
I also like a getaway kit...
Water proof tube for local chart, waterproof container for log and navigation hand instruments.
Another Brilliant Video 🤠
Great stuff. When I was a kid learning to sail in San Francisco bay, my chart table was my parent's kitchen table. Spent hours studying all the lovely detail on the chart, as there was barely room in the small day sailers used for training for 2 or 3 crew, much less a chart table! These days I sail a 1968 vintage O'Day DS1 on Fern Ridge lake and wish I could find a chart for study ashore.
It's always absorbing looking at a paper chart. I love them and have papered my study with old ones. Tom
Nice one, you put a smile back on my face, thanks.
Glad to hear it Luke. Tom
Fun video.....your log and mine are similar....i often turn to the aft 10 or so pages to look at and reminisce over those that have signed, written goofy verses...attached images. Awesome! Baro, yes....but I am now on the hunt for a hanging of sorts to cover my old, funky distribution panel. Great idea! Thanks Mr Tom, Andrew
Love your videos Tom. Hubby and I are hoping to start the next chapter of our lives when we find our dream. Boat.I love how informative your videos are and u say it how it is and easy to listen too. Definitely have learnt a lot watching you
Charming
Thanks! Tom
You sir are a legend.
Going to get one of those star planners!
You won't regret it Dan. Tom
Great video Tom, must personalise my chart table a bit... Saw your old boat Westernman in Ardfern last week, nice bunch of people sailing her !
Thanks Richard. Good to have news of Westernman. Tom
What a legend. I’ve watched that, now I’ll pack my lunch and head out for a sail.
Good idea Jack! Tom
Brilliant Sir.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks Alves! Tom
Thank You Tom.
You are very welcome Marty. Thanks for watching. Tom
Hi Tom! Graham Cox here. I share your passion for proper chart tables and paper charts. Is it a generational thing? Maybe, but as you explain so lucidly here, it is also eminently practical, even in the age of electronic navigation. Well done! However, I was waiting with interest to hear where you store your charts, but you didn't mention. Fess up! I like a hinged lid, or drawers beneath the table, like Eric Hiscock had on Wanderer III, where I can store 50-100 charts, but couldn't see that on Constance. You should have room for 400 charts!
Excellent as ever, Tom! I really enjoy your outlook and philosophy on life! Looking at paper charts is great for planning and recording information, and like the barometer, clock and compass, doesn't need batteries or depend on that power panel! I would add a handheld GPS to the VHF just in case... Thank you!
Thanks George for your input. Glad you enjoyed it. Tom
Love your work Tom!
The modern quartz movements "tic" but they don't "talk". One of my passions, both on the hard and aboard, are mechanical clocks. Thank you, Tom, for making being an old fart such an art form. Oh yes, I have my favorite oil anchor lamp.
My house is full of clocks David. From the Grandfather passed to Ros by her grandfather to a small carriage clock on the mantelpiece. Love them all and enjoying winding them up. Tom
Nice one Tom, always an interesting take on all things sailing. A great end-frame!
Many thanks Mike. Tom
Wise words indeed.
Loved the ticking clock at the very end!
So pleased Jerry. Thanks for letting me know. Tom
Another great video so interesting keep them coming take care.
Thanks David. More in the pipeline soon. Tom
Of *course* you have a picture of Lord Nelson by your chart table... 😀
I'm with you on your thinking and attitude Tom. 😉
Thanks Colin - glad we're on the same shanty sheet. Tom
I like the way Nelson was 'keeping an eye on things' ... poor bugger didn't have much choice!
Well said Tim! Tom
Ticking clocks go overboard on my boat!
Ha ha! That reminds me of the early days getting together with my wife Ros. She couldn't stand my 'Big Ben' wind-up alarm clock sounding off and dealt with it in your approved manner. She threw it at the wall one morning after a bit of night out. Luckily she survived to tell the tale. The clock did not. Tom
I like the switch board. True it is white.
Brilliant!
