Great gift from your daughter

Don’t get ya fob wet on your way out to the boat 😂

_"So far this year the weather has been awful.."_ says Roy on 2nd January 😃

Like your security camera set up what make are they? Found the same problem with GoPro. Only use it underwater for checking engine intake for blockage 😂

Happy Nollaig na mban ( women’s Christmas- men have to take over household duties and cooking so women get a rest from all the Christmas cooking etc.) Bizarre your video didn’t pop up on my view notifications until this morning.

Happy new year to you and your loved ones

So happy with you have the all clear, that is wonderful news xx

Love your channel Roy 🎉

Blessed to still have you with us. ❤ wishing you & your loved ones a wonderful Christmas and a prosperous and healthy 2025. Best wishes from Yvonne and John. God bless you

Fantastic to see you back to your old self and considering the poor weather what a busy year you have had. Fingers crossed for some better weather next year and more exciting adventures ⛵️

Good morning Roy👍 thanks for your feedback on products. Christian our youngest bought us a waterproof bag /backpack last Christmas ❤️ Brilliant & have phone pouch too. It’s a great bit of kit for going ashore in the dinghy

Sounds like us coming out of Usshant in 2011. 3 kids in v cabin flying between mattress and roof😂

Isn’t it great to have friends you can sail with when your boat is in the yard. We enjoyed a delivery sail in September helping our friend move from Dublin to New Ross for winter storage and jobs. Know where we are storing Wave Dancer next winter

👍

WRONG.Dont spray sealant inside of valve

Well done !! Much perseverance and patience x

I never realised you had indoor steering wheel.cool feature

Just found your channel, enjoying your videos which I am watching from the start, Thanks for sharing, Simon, Conwy N Wales x

what date did you sail?

Good having friends who need help with delivery of their yachts to allow us sneak in extra sailing even though we have the boat on the hard

Congratulations John, Bedlam is a lovely vessel of adventure

A keel hauling offence not having tea. 😂 At least he could offer an alternative warm drink

Lovely way to spend time exploring on the water. John and I helped a friend bring his westerly falcon “Leda” from Dun Laoighaire to New Ross Co. Wexford ( cheaper storage) just the weekend gone. 120 miles nonstop. End of season sail was not on Wave Dancer this year ( July ). Get to see her in 2 weeks ❤

Just found this at 00:57 . I will watch again in the proper morning. Can’t believe I’m still awake after a 21 hour yacht delivery with a friend (120 miles approx. ) bus train bus car to get home

Lift your boom up with the topping lift, So the end of the boom is in line with the clue on the sail. Lubricate the ball bearings in the mast with a dry lubricant every time you go sailing. You are right as it’s set up right now you’re pulling it down not out and that’s why it’s easier to pull out by hand. We had issues with ours when we first brought our boat. You have to use your topping lift with in mast furling at least on our boat we do.

Our last sail was in July. Jobs continue on Wave Dancer, 5 thruhulls and new shore power plug completed

Always nice to see dolphies although it looked a bit bouncy early on so I am not surprised you popped in to Llandudno. Last time I anchored there it was smelly mud...

I have had similar issues. The rod inside the mast on whivh the sail furls can be tensioned. The instruction manual explains how to do this and the slackness on yours may be part of the problem.

Great job getting sorted

Fantastic video Roy, i miss sailing.

Ernesto’ tail has a lot to answer for. Fairly blowing here in County Meath yesterday, not a puff this morning just as well as my son and girlfriend are flying to Italy this morning

Forgive my ignorance about in mast systems but I thought there was supposed to be a safety override so it can’t jam & get you in trouble. Have you got any instructions/ installation manual? I agree angle looks wrong putting tension in wrong area

Are you able to try removing the sail from the boom traveller to give a better angle on the outhaul to prove a point. Also have you tried releasing sheet and kicker to allow the boom to lift up to the sail and give a better angle to pull the sail out.

There is a better way, use anchor rode markers, cost about $5 per set, and stitch them to your chain with waxed sailing twine. Lasted a couple of years, was easy to see and didn't foul the windlass.

Dear Roy discovered your channel I put in Rotostay and there you were … I really like your channel very much and I will enjoy looking at other episodes cheers. I do hope you Cancer is in remission. I was diagnosed myself three months ago.

Congratulations Jo hope you enjoyed your time out with Roy

Like the new introduction.

Catching up on episodes now we're home from France and Isles of Scilly, great seeing you again

We're home from France, Wave Dancer still in Arzal getting work done on her, overdue facelift❤. Had amazing time we are shattered,

😂😂 Roy you just gotta keep on keeping on mate all the best

Well done.Stay safe.Hope your flask is full.🎉.

Oops I watched part 2 before 1. Never known Noel to be so well behaved Unless it was your editing 😂

Thanks for another great video. Can’t believe how calm you had it and the sunrise was stunning 😍

Thanks for the nice mention. It’s great to hear our small contribution helped spare you on. It’s brilliant to see you back on the water and enjoying your sailing. Enjoyed your trilogy and well done to you all. Hopefully see you all down in Anglesey this coming week.👍

Interesting concept for saving your dock lines. Must check Penryn out for a choice of dock in future. We’re restricted by 1.8m keel so probably not an option as it looks pretty dry. We anchored at Tryn Du & the pool at Beaumaris

Well done John. We did our first Swellies transit last year

The Welsh landscape is breathtaking. I wish we had time to visit BeddGelert when we were in Caernarfon last year. The legend of Gelert was a favourite of mine as a child and our Welsh pony was called Gelert.

Thanks so much for the honourable mention of being on your watch list.❤ Hopefully have a new one tonight/ tomorrow. John keeps suggesting edits when I think I have it right for release which delays me further 😂😂
