Runs ashore as a Bootneck (Royal Marine) in the '80's and '90's were legendary!! Could've given Ollie Reid a run for his money!! Beer, Big eats, Bag off and Back on board!! 😎

Its all a learning curve . Every days a school day when sailing.

I had the original plastic fuel pipe drop off inside a similar plastic tank off the west coast of Skye. Having checked the entire fuel system I reckoned the only issue had to be inside the tank. Now have a proper fuel pipe secured with a Jubilee. Thankfully we had a school of dolphins entertaining us while we sorted the issue.

I've just bought a 6 man seago life raft out of date to use as a Duck pond watching your vedio ill open it up my self manually inflate it to dave the Co2 cylinder as I need to inflate it with my Ducks near thank you great video have a good 2025 Mark

Been on the end of that bit of rope twice, that lifeboat certainly got some grunt. Thanks guys.

the real world of boating

Lovely video - with fascinating information, especially about the Wishing Tree - thank you. I'm so glad my husband found your channel because we are now enjoying catching up with them all, and have subscribed of course.

You guys are out of your depth. Your boat has too many compmicated systems amd when they fail you are knakered. The woman on the boat is panicking when RNLI arrive ?? Really

Distressed at the sight of the rescue boat. Gotta be a rare response. Sorry Sark was too busy for you. Perhaps try somewhere else next time 😐 Hope you made a large donation to the RNLI.

Great glad all safe but please don't sing 😂😂😂

You have an anchor?

Well, I'll be checking our jubilee clips before splash after watching this! You may never know how many call outs you've prevented with this video, so thanks for sharing.

Oof

Does the lifeboat charge for call-outs?

I'm glad it turned out OK for you and you arrived safely.

Glad you are both safe. It could have happened to anyone with electronic Nav equipment. It suggests to me i need a separate back-up / compare options on an Tablet? Thank you for sharing, and well done for dealing with it cleanly and promptly. Remember, if you get back safe and sound and the boat isnt damaged = RESULT !

Out of fuel???

You had wind? You’re a sail boat? Tides would take you around Les Hanois and along the south coast? Long and slow but doable?

Thanks for sharing. As an aviator as well as a sailor I know how easy it is to get things wrong, and how soul destroying it is when you do. However I also know that we all make mistakes and the best thing we can do is own up and learn from them. Well done!!

Thanks for posting this, my engine checks will be more thorough as a result. Best wishes Ruth and Henry Falmouth.

thanks for have the courage to share. You're helping other with you honesty. Keep sailing - you've ticked this one off now!

Why didn't you just turn around and run with the wind and get to safety instead of getting a lifeboat out !

Glad all ended well - I’m sure we’ll all learn something from this one 👍

Even when you think you have covered all the bases, there are still so many things that can go wrong at sea. You did the right thing call it in at an early stage, it’s still a bit embarrassing especially for a practical chap. But you really had done your best to have a reliable ship. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for sharing this guys, really insightful and certainly food for thought! Good call on the pan pan, glad to see you smiling again and back safe! ⛵️

Alls well that ends well. I feel for you, and useful lessons we can all learn from. Very best wishes, James and Gemma. Dartmouth.

Never seen a Moody moving so fast

I say. What a handsome fellow that was at the helm of the Southerly 110!

So very beautiful. Maxine has the most beautiful soothing voice and of course Hiro steals the show as usual. Filming is superb and always makes me feel that Im actually a passenger on Sea Pigeon. Stunning and watching these videos is a much needed escape from the chaos of our world .

Well done guys - great narration

What a lovely calming vidio...I live 3 minutes from the Med just south of Barcelona having moved here 20 years ago and as beautiful as it is I always tell people who ask me about the UK is I do miss the the rivers and the streams ...many thanks regards from Catalunya..

A bit pedantic I suppose but the folks living on the Isles Of Scilly appreciate it if you wouldn't use the term "Scilly Isles" Thank you your videos bring back many happy memories of the decades I spent sailing in Cornish waters I have sailed to the Islands a few times, once, and only once, in a Norfolk Gypsy, that wasn't much fun!!!

Do you get much water in your bilges? That seems a larger than normal helm

You can walk on the ferry with a dog from Holland without a vehicle

Did you get into Newlyn with dog on board? We were refused entry a few years back as no dogs allowed in, even though it was blowing hard from SE and few other options for shelter. Interested to know, thanks.

Fabulous video an area we know well. The dolphins were an absolute delight and Hero obviously loves them ❤️. Looking forward to seeing a video of Scilly 😊

The weed was cleared by a really helpfull local. It is just tge local sailing community pulling together. I have a feeling the payment was in booze and kind.😊

can I ask how much the diver cost to clear the weed from the engine intake ?

Beautiful video! Looks like a fun trip! 😊💖🌈

My playground in the 50s and 60s when it was a cargo dock. We played in the coal hoppers and later the large sand piles. Later it was used for fertilizer and the docks fish all died. It was good for catching 3lb silver eels. The wood stacks were an adventure to climb and we often had a lift from the steam train to the station.

Delighted to see you back on TH-cam. Had the pleasure to sail in company with you from Guernsey. So delighted with the photographs you took of my boat Estella. Look forward to meeting up with you in the future. Fabulous episode again.

Fantastic! Sorry we didn't bump into you again this season, but hopefully next year. Best wishes. James and Gemma. Emelin

The fascinating contrasts of sailing in the UK and once again you bring me memories of harbours dearly loved (when the weather suits) Hero is looking like quite the sea dog!

Lovely, thanks!

milf galore, geddon neil

Hiro can hear the clicks before we see the Dolphin.

I'm suspicious that it's gained weight! It looks like you weighed the CO2 cylinder with the valve still attached. I removed the valve (which was very hard to unscrew) and weighed it (also at a friendly PO!) and it came out 2g lighter than the original, ie about. 0.05%.

mine has bilge keels so much less stress lol

Have fun! Love the bit of film/music at the beginning sailing at sunrise. Utter bliss. 😉

Will it dry in time for high tide😂
