    Hi Aannsha & Barry
    Hell's Bells!
    I dont know how I came to find your channel but I was, until today, completely hooked on it and now feel terribly disappointed!
    No it wasn't something you said or did (or even didn't do) I have been enthralled by your adventures.
    So why am I so disappointed? Having blitzed my way through all your Vlogs (Episode 198) over the last couple of weeks I find myself being unable to find Episode 199, 200 etc etc etc. Then I realized you only posted 198 on the 4th December so now have to wait another week for the next one. This is too cruel.
    I really admire what you have achieved and it was for some time my own ambition to be a liveaboard but alas life got in the way. All my sailing was in UK waters and I have sailed throughout my life all around British waters. I did however sail over to the Med in a friends 38' catamaran from Gosport UK. Crossing the Bay of Biscay in 3 days being the crowning glory of my long sailing career.
    Like you Barry I suffer from sleep apnoea but my Resmed cpap unit ran on 12v so I had a separate battery put in just for that purpose and for a month everything worked perfectly. Well worth the effort!
    I look forward to you resuming your vlogs. Take Care & Sail Safe . Best wishes for Xmas & New Year from Brian Mitchell

    I missed you Friday night - (for me) - and the whole weekend. I know it seems odd - but I actually get out once in a while. You're in Sept and I'm in Dec - and I'll be glad when 2021 is over and 2022 is here. 2022 is the year of change - I can't wait for the cavalcade to begin. I'll give you a hint - I'm going to move from Portland to Las Vegas. Maybe the ripples will even reach Turkey.

    Believe it or not, we have to deal with foxes coming aboard in the marina in Gosport, Solent. There's a huge colony (if that's the right word) around the local area and they are bold as brass. Looked up once to see a fox snuffling round in the cockpit or our neighbour's Moody (the owner was away), and we have left food to keep cool in our cockpit in a box overnight... only to find pieces of box and no food in the morning :)

      Sail Ho, the correct name for group of foxes is a "shulk" or a "leash" we have a shulk living in our garden but just refer to them as a family! Easier to say and sounds more descriptive.

      We love the little cuties but the problem is the wee and poo they leave everywhere and on a boat they chew through the electrical cables.

    Had a rat onboard for three days a few years ago, still finding damage, chewed through cables, hoses and my dinghy. A trap and peanut butter got him. I now have electronic units to keep them out and fit rat guards to the stern lines.

    Barry, I hope you don’t think I’m being pedantic, but the French supermarket group Carrefour is pronounced “car-for” not “cary four”. Maybe there in Turkey they have their own way of pronouncing it, it’s a bit like Nestles products, for years we in the U.K. got it wrong saying “ness-alls” rather than the correct pronunciation “ness-ley”. Is all this important, not sure but imagined if everyone called you bar- ree!😆

    • @SailingABSea
      @SailingABSea  2 года назад +1

      (Baz) You are correct we do tend to be a little sloppy in our pronunciations. We'll attempt to raise the bar from here on. 😀

    • @AannshaJones
      @AannshaJones 2 года назад

      Of course! And I think the reason we call it Carrer-four is because the first time we came across it was in Spain, and that's how they pronounced it. I wonder how Turkish people pronounce it? 😃

    In the past, legends circulated among sailors that mice and rats have a sense of danger and leave the ship in port if this is to sink on the next voyage, so a ship without rats was considered doomed and many sailors refused to embark.
    So if your ship has a mouse, it means it's okay, there's no danger in the future.

      It's always interesting looking back at history and how humans considered certain things to be omens, good or bad. 😀
