    Tranquility is what I feel watching this video. Geordie looks good and seems in good hands while you tend to Poem you seem good to Peter.

    Relax? Picked it in one. Ok so too obvious to tell you to relax and enjoy yourself, hmm, how about, "the best way for you to relax on your wooden boat is to sit and drink beer with the loving memory of your pup Geordie, all the while preparing for some extensive cruising one day? " Yes I think that works. I'll enjoy looking forward to the upper deck restoration.

    Wow, I've never seen a street full of garages in the water for boats to park in. So cool, we need that in Australia, I'd never go home. A great place to "relax" as you work in a garage. I'd never go home.

    As much as I adore Geordie I am very impressed with Poems manoeuvre ability she looks such fun. Scotty (oops sorry, I know he doesn’t like it) Scott is surely a party animal, I really don’t think you are going to get much RELAXation with him around. What a fantastic boat facility. I’m sure we don’t have anything like that in UK.
    Have fun Peter.

    Watching you walk in to the pilot house of M/V Geordi from the aft cabin really illustrates how palatial she is compared to the cozy POEM. Great episode, excited to see progress on the flybridge of M/V Geordi!

    I was a little too relaxed when I first moored an old wooden fantail trawler I was restoring in a boat house and totally forgot about the mast. I spent a good three days repairing the mast while I apologized to that old beautiful boat. Just making memories!!
    Thanks for helping keep wood boat traditions alive.

    Most of my life I have lived on the piscataqua river. This borders Maine and New Hampshire it is the seventh past is continuous current in the North America it's also the third fastest current for tidal in North America also. I live off the river on a creek called Spruce Creek in Kittery Point Maine during the tides we would get between a 6 to 8 Mi an hour currants both high and low. so when people talk about a 7 to 8 mile a tides this is very normal to me and the people who live there on the piscataqua river there is a spot called The Narrows where the current can raise up to 15 miles an hour on a moon tide .

    Ran my houseboat under a bridge years ago it looked so big and tall surely there is clearance, snap went the antenna. Pay more attention with a mast up for sure.
    If it’s raining not better to do than relax. Beautiful out there.
    I’ll be installing my Beta, been waiting on the oak beds with no parts to connect till now. Pacific beacons.

    Rowena, nice looking sailboat. Rowena is also the name of a scenic road in the east Columbia River Gorge. Built in the early 1900s, it has several horseshoe turns clinging to the cliffface. Fun place to ride a motorcycle. Hope you relax well and recharge this week. Always enjoy your videos.

    Your docking onto the tank barge and especially entering into the boat dock reminds me of when I touch down into a hanger bay or onto a landing pad with any of my ships, especially my C2 Hercules Starlifter (3460 ton). ;-)
    I'm sure you realize that my "ships" are fictional spacecraft and if I do have a tough landing I "relax" by viewing the gas giant Crusader from its orbital station (a lot for one word, eh?). ;-D
