    My running commentary:
    1:57 that "square transition" is amazing. Nicely done!
    "Where are we? You've got the F***ing thing in your pocket!" I laughed out loud!
    I was wondering how long it would take for a disparaging comment about cruise ships! Nothing ruins a good time like a bloody cruiseship full of tourists.
    Bermuda is one of the most beautiful places on earth. I sailed there solo when I was 19 for summer break after my first year of college. My parents were SO PISSED at me when they got my credit card bill and realized where i'd been. That's the last time I ever got even a dollar from my parents :)
    I can't wait to follow the journey to the Azores! #lifegoal!

      Elle, that's a frickin' awesome story. You sound like a real hell raising sailor. If you are ever travelling near us, come and stay. We'd love to hear your tales over a few beers :)

    You two are such a gorgeous couple!!!! Living Life To The Fullest!!!!
    Love the video and the way you share your experiences with us!!!
    I ALWAYS look forward to the next video!!!!
    BTW, I wrote my post before I saw James Bennett’s post.
    I always speak my own mind.
    Also,
    I have lived in the U.S. for 62 years and never known anyone with a pet weasel.
    I have lived on the West Coast, East Coast, South, South West and Mid West as well as 3 years in Hawaii. No pet weasels.

    Great entertainment as usual. Thanks. Really looking forward to the Atlantic passage. There are always pedants about as soon as you state a “fact”. Here is my contribution. Origin of the “Whole nine yards” idiom is a moot point with no real evidence of when it was first coined or what it meant originally. It was certainly used to describe the length of ammunition belts, especially for the Vickers machine gun in WWII. Also evidence of use in WWI and before. As mentioned OED states 1885 as first usage. Being this is a sailing environment I like the usage to describe the maximum power of a three master, when all sails are set from each of the the three yards from each mast, thus “All nine yards”. Love your VLOGS and the never ending humour between you and Terysa. Good sailing stories and maintenance instruction easily keep me interested too. Looking forward to all that goes with an Atlantic passage, and beyond. Fair winds

    HI Guys, Thanks sooo much for your great comments about our Island home, it was super to meet all three of you and thank you for inviting me aboard on your first morning on the Island, I like to think it was my out of date Bovril and local Ginger beer that sealed the deal for your wonderful comments, ;-). safe sailing.
    Oh and Ps. Bermuda still remains a British colony , were called BOTC now, not many of them left but were still proud of our heritage and history, whether it British, Portuguese,Caribbean, African or American, were all Bermudian..

Write this post. Step 6. Verify I’ve spelled Terysa’s name correctly. Step 7. Double check spelling. Step 8. Post. Gawd, this is exhausting. 😋

    I don’t think you two are old enough to have seen ‘Abbott and Costello’s “Who’s on first routine “ but you two give it a fair run with this video or Tim Conway’s (better yet) dental anesthesia routine. Priceless for all three! You have joined the ranks in my memory. Naming it is easy “Terysa and Nick’s conversations”. Terysa, are you aware of your influence on this man? Watch his video from Sri Lanka and see if I’ve nailed it. You are the glue that keeps it all together. I humbly thank you both!

    “The whole nine yards” was related to three masted ships with three yards each. When all sails were deployed, it was said that the sails were fully set.

  • @SC-hd4rm
    @SC-hd4rm 6 лет назад +1

    Super video -- but the expression "whole nine yards" actually comes from sailing: meaning all three yard-arms on all three masts were hung with sails; i.e. the maximum sail area was hung. I believe the Mustang reference is apocryphal. Keep up the great work!

    • @sailingrubyrose
      @sailingrubyrose  6 лет назад

      Its contentious, but wiki has this. Although there are other perfectly good theories. Either way if we meet we can discuss this over several beers.....
      There is still no consensus on the origin, though many early published quotations are now available for study. A vast number of explanations for this phrase has been suggested;[29][30] many of these are no longer viable in light of what is now known about the phrase's history.
      Perhaps the most commonly offered explanation is that World War II (1939-1945) aircraft machine gun belts were nine yards long. There are many versions of this explanation with variations regarding type of plane, nationality of gunner and geographic area. An alternative weapon is the ammunition belt for the British Vickers machine gun, invented and adopted by the British Army before World War I (1914-1918). The standard belt for this gun held 250 rounds of ammunition and was approximately twenty feet (under seven yards) in length. [11] However, the Vickers gun as fitted to aircraft during the First World War usually had ammunition containers capable of accommodating linked belts of 350-400 rounds, the average length of such a belt being about nine yards, and it was thought that this may be the origin of the phrase.

    I find it hard to catch your live Q&A, but would love it if you could address my question. I will be able to catch your answer on the replay. Question: How do you keep abreast of current events, news, and happenings. Do you follow news from home, from the country you are visiting, international affairs...or do you just say "screw it, I am on vacation". My husband and I both follow politics, the markets, and news closely...wondering if it will be as important when we are sailing about. Thank you.

    • @sailingrubyrose
      @sailingrubyrose  6 лет назад +1

      Good question kathleen. We follow current affairs, And love reading about the world.
      We normally have a local sim card and pay for data.
      This is a must for youtube, but itnalso gives us access to all the news.
      When we are in an area where data is cheap, we can stream the news on a vpn.

  • @kirsten07734
    @kirsten07734 6 лет назад +1

    The ammunition explanation for the meaning of "whole nine yards" is not consistent with the term's use since it was known to be in use before such ammunition existed. I think most likely it was in reference to a length of cloth but the actual origin will probably remain a riddle.

  • @NortyNige
    @NortyNige 6 лет назад +1

    The whole nine yards referrs to the cpacity of a cement truck (New York expression?) so when they say give me the whole nine yards it means the total load from the truck.
    I think some aviation geek may have been having a lend of you young Zorro. ;-)

    People! In your opening scene at Dockyard you are opposite one of Bermuda's two excellent breweries. Why did you not prioritize a visit? shame you had such a short time on island. Out of necessity you seem to have been largely confined to the 'tourist trap' places (although they are still very nice). Let me know if you ever plan to return. Will be happy to drive you round and give any other logistical support you may like.

    @deanej1 4 года назад

    Not quite true. Tolkien was a philologist based in Oxford. His area was Norse and Finish etymology and folklore - as far as I recall. It is said that Narn I Chîn Húrin (or The Children of Húrin was based on the Kalevala, this was a story in The Lost Tales, later the Silmarilion. This is probably the source of the notion that the Silmarilion itself was based on The Nibelungenlied or, indeed, as some think, Beowulf. However, that was the Silmarilion (the ‘back story’) to the LOTR, not the LOTR itself. A big fan from childhood - used to be a pet subject. :)

    Nick and you were in rare form. Great. Sad about leaving the Bermuda, as it could have been a months stay to be satiated. Whole nine yards is still up for grabs when it comes to etymology.. having been in the military it’s unlikely the description would use yards. Rounds , feet, maybe even weight. The military uses meters and klicks(km), even then( 1940’s). I use to know p-51 pilots, they may all be dead now. I’ll ask the next time I see them.

    • @markturner4219
      @markturner4219 5 лет назад +1

      Whole 9 yards goes way back before then. First recorded use is in a story about tailoring in 1855 - in Kentucky they used to say the whole 6 yards.
