Well done guys, it’s been great watching your journey, be warned it can become very addictive!! We have been lucky enough to have sailed around three times to date (once through the Caledonian and twice round the top), and have visited many of the wonderful places as you have. Fair winds on your future travels.
Thank you Terry. Where was your favourite spot around the UK? I think if we had to choose, Faye would pick Salcome, and Rob would pick anywhere in Cornwall. Did you circumnavigate clockwise or anti-clockwise and which do you think is best?
Hi Rob & Faye, Favourite place Falmouth area. First trip 2018 clockwise through the caladonian, second trip 2019 anticlockwise around the top visiting the orkneys Third time 2022 clockwise around top visiting the outer hebridies. In our experience no one way is harder than the other. Sounds obvious, but to fully enjoy its good to have the luxury of time, so you can be choosy with the weather!!
your biggest saving with gas is to invest in gas safe fill bottles, i use safe fill bottles and save roughly £30 a refil, easily to refill all over the uk and europe, buy a set of valve adapters and its a huge gas cost savings.
@@hedgerowpete do you have any more info to share on this please, sounds great! Have also found that an electric induction hob is saving a lot of gas, but would still be great to have a more cost effective gas setup!
Thank you! We are just about there with our planning my friend. For now I can say it’ll be somewhere warmer than the ice box that is currently North Shields! 🥶🥶🥶
Gas could be saved with induction but generating the power requires the alternator. Our 650w of solar can cover fridge, nav and auto pilot but induction only at a pinch. I would strongly recommend a folding trailer / sack truck. We use ours for everything and it packs away to nowt. Good tip on the Circumnavigators guide. A new one is out in Feb we have it on order now. What charts did you take?
@@ooweesaler we only took Navionics as we didn’t want to fork out over a grand for the charts! And honestly Navionics was absolutely fine. We don’t tend to use induction unless we’re plugged in, for reasons you outline. Or I cook things that can be done quickly and use induction. What’s a sack truck?!
interesting, thanks. It s true, the sailing brothers diet is depressing 😁, first video of yours I saw was you mentioning chips cooked in beef dripping, man after my own heart :).Bon voyage .
Captain Yewy is the star as always! About 5 minutes after filming that Rob had Yewy on the field playing fetch like a young pup. Hope you and Stu are well. We were thinking of you guys today while talking about Padstow. Xxx F
The Sailing Brothers don't just eat hotdogs and cheese you know. You'll give people the wrong idea because you didn't mention fish n chips, hash, and... er...something else.
Have you watched any of Sailing Sweet Ruca’s videos? They are sailing round the world with their little dog. 🐶 Btw I live five miles from Buckie and our fish n chips up here is pretty good! 😉
We haven’t seen that channel, but thank you for the recommendation, we’ll surely check it out! Haha! If you see our Buckie episode, you’ll see that we agree with you! The fish n chips in Buckie were outstanding and sensibly priced. Just what the doctor ordered 😀
@@sailinghjem Just found you so I’ll watch my way through them. 🙂 Sweet Ruca is one of my favourite channels. They’re a down to earth couple and are one of the very few sailing channels going a different route. They’re currently in Patagonia.

We are caravaners and that's much the same cost for per night
Interesting, thanks for sharing!
Most well behaved sailing dog on RUclips!!!!
@@Kevin-zz9nc she’s the best! 🐾🐾
great summary of costs, what are the plans for 2024 season

Thank you! It simply HAS to be beef dripping!
I think that you should have split Fish 'n Chips out from Gannin oot - your public need to know how many times you had Fish 'n Chips!! 😉
😂😂😂 NOT ENOUGH is the answer!!
Good to still have your videos . Although Captain Yewy was looking a little bored on this one . Was she due a walk ? She is fabulous x🦴

Thank you I’m so glad you popped up in my ‘feed’ this was really helpful info!
@@earthwalker9109 no problem, let us know if there’s anything else we can help with!
Love your videos. I have to agree with you about the Sailing Brothers diet. I get an urge to go visit them and give them a few cooking lessons!
delicious !!
The Sailing Brothers are fantastic and they absolutely inspired us to do this trip. But yes, I get an urge to give them vegetables.

They eat what they like and that’s the most important thing 😂
