I know Im asking randomly but does anyone know of a way to log back into an instagram account..? I somehow lost the password. I appreciate any assistance you can offer me!
@Bodie Sylas I really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and I'm trying it out atm. Takes quite some time so I will get back to you later with my results.
Im glad you got to take your dad on a cruise in the harbor... This Yank can't get enough of your back yard, here's hoping the engine problems are relatively straight forward and cheap!
@Jim Alley Yeah I know where Detroit is, it's where Henry Ford took over the manufacturing world. and where their drinking water is poisonous from illegal manufacturing waste...
I visited Sydney 1968 they were still working on the opera house. Took a ferry ride to the zoo on the island, went under the iconic bridge. Was a great trip was r&r from Vietnam.
When I used to use the radio I was in a habit of always logging off at a particular spot on the way home but when I changed to the app I would sometimes forget. One time I had my phone on silent and Marine Rescue and the cops were calling up my next of kin to check that I was back safely. I happened to bump into the boys at the ramp a couple of days later and rather sheepishly approached them an apologised. They laughed it off and said that it happens all the time. They do a great job keeping us safe on the water. Thanks for another excellent video.
@@DangarMarine Probably wouldn't be bad to do a video (perhaps collaborating with Marine Rescue) to reveal how the current state of tech arose and practical stuff boaties can do and avoid, so as to build habits that help people find their feet & manage risks appropriately. Could their app feature a warning that the expected end time is about to be exceeded, and pre-empt with "do you want to (auto-)extend?" prompt (perhaps using avg speed & distance to calculate a new, sensible ETA). Seems the tech does much more than leaving a note on the kitchen table about intentions for spontaneous activities on the water, as was the case a few decades ago.
Chickens are relaxing, but roosters are annoying as f*ck! I know from experience, I have both roaming free through my neighborhood... Best of all is spring and summertime, though, when the mommy chooks come to my backyard with their chicks. So I guess those annoying loudmouthes are good for something, after all.
Sydney Opera house is now an older building but she is still absolutely beautiful. I remember the first time I saw the structure decades ago. It is now 2020 and she still has the "wow" factor. The architect(s) did a masterful job. Stu, thank you for these videos-you are an inspiration. I am now 60+ years old, still working full time, and I just enrolled in the local technical college's marine technology program (part time) to get some formal training. I'm positive that watching you do your magic and enjoying your journey from the other side of the Pacific, was the main underlying motivation for me to take the step and get some formal training for myself. Supporting your channel on Paetron is some of the BEST money I get to spend every month. Thank you for the encouragement, diversion, education and FUN you provide to your WORLDWIDE audience, which is especially helpful during this COVID-19 forced shutdown. Thank you! - Northbeach
Hi Stu, been watching you from the UK for a couple of years now, glad you got out for a trip, and to have your dad meet up, must have been the icing on the cake.
I do believe Daffy missed you - anyway, thank you for the lovely trip and spectacular sights. It must be great to go cruising after all your hard work on the boat
Stu, my wife and I visited Sydney and walked the Circular Quay in December 2019. Hit the same spot you pictured in this video. We saw the fireworks and visited the Opera House. Great town, great people and great food. I always enjoy visiting Sydney...one of my favorite places in the world.
Saaweeet. Good to see you have a usable vessel to enjoy after all the hard work. Now you can enjoy the boat while finishing off, which from memory was the plan.👏👍
"Look astern before you turn." For real, I was on a trip in Sydney last October and was impressed and surprised at the volume and hustle of traffic along the port. Happened to see Radiance of the Seas and the James Craig tall ship making their way through as well! Great to see the sights again with Renko's help, keep up the good work Stu!
So sweet Dangar Stu to ride along on Renzo’s first official cruise! 👍👏🏻 What a great feeling for you. Ya even honored her with the new haircut! LOL 😂 Dangar Stu and Renko looking ship shape and in Bristol fashion! 👏🏻👍😀
What a great spot. Im in the north east of the UK and yesterday spotted a pod of dolphins swimming past the house. I have lived here well over 15 years and they are the first dolphins I have seen. 👍👍
Nice to see you underway, waiting for the same video from Tally Ho. It's the ultimate reward after all the tough work you went through. Most folks have no idea how much work goes into projects like this.
wow after all the work on the boat and first trip the motor sounds sweet and looking out the wheel house window takes me back to my days on the sea, well done and may Renko give you days and years of pleasure on the water
Loved the video Stu, My wife Helen and I spent a few days in Sydney a couple of years back and we just loved the place. The opera house and Darling harbour bought it all back. We have decided to visit again, hopefully soon. It's good to see you enjoying Renko after sharing some of your less joyous moments as the rebuild took it toll. You deserve some good time in it mate, you worked so hard, well done. Love the channel and good to see you seem to have recovered from your injuries. Looking forward to your next adventure.
We were just a little excited to see Renko when we took the ferry to Dangar Island for lunch at the Bowling Club on Father's Day. Hoping to come and live there in a few months time.
It is truly great, after all the effort, time and money you have ploughed into this project to see you reaping the rewards of an easy shakedown cruise around Sydney harbour. What a great reward, thanks for sharing. May you have many hours and miles of safe happy cruising ahead of you, best regards Paul UK
Haven’t seen your videos for awhile. Great to see the trawler nearing completion. She a fine cruiser and workboat by the looks of it. Very nice. I miss Australia. Used to spend time in Queensland along the long, long beaches of the coastline. Somewhere near a place called The Chocolate Hills, I believe. I could never figure out how everyone knew I was American just by looking at me. That was some beautiful country and amazing food.
I've been watching this channel since about the day you bought Renko, and it is a long awaited pleasure to see you take your first cruise. Well done, looking forward to the next phase, ongoing repairs and upgrades, diving adventures, & whatever else you share.
Glad your trip went well. Enjoy and share this time as much as you can with your Dad, Dads don't get to stay around forever. Please make cleaning up all the wiring one of the major items on the list. Having neat wiring is not just cosmetic. Chafing and flex breakage are two gremlins that will plague you if wires are not well secured in anything that moves. Labeling the ends of the wires will make troubleshooting and upgrades infinitely easier and time spent now will pay dividends in a year when you are NOT chasing electrical problems in the dark.
@@DangarMarine I was thinking about your exposed wiring in the wheelhouse. There is a commercial product named Wiremold which is a surface mount conduit. It will hold the wires in place and give a more "finished" look. Myself, I'm a cheapskate, so instead of buying Wiremold I go to the second-hand store and get used curtain rods (c. 3/4" x 3/8")...they work quite well.
Loved seeing Renko on the harbour. I managed to get my old runabout on the harbour once which was an awesome feeling cruising past and under those landmarks
It’s great to see you enjoying the fruits of your labour. It brought back memories of our week in Sydney last year where we were lucky enough to be given a boat tour of the harbour by our friend’s neighbour in his Chris Craft launch.
Watching your videos makes me realize how much I miss working on ships as an engineer and seeing the world by water. Calm seas, and smooth sailing to you mate!
Back when I was a stupid kid in the 80's I used to launch my Zodiac at Manly Cove and head in to Darling Harbour for some hot chips. Now living on the other side of the planet I bloody miss that place. Was wonderful seeing you enjoying Renko and seeing that magnificent harbour again.
great to see Renko out and about, especially when I was previously only getting glimpses of her from the train when she was on the hard stand ... and know what you mean about being a tourist in you own backyard, have worked in the city (around Hyde park) for last 30 years and always feel like a tourist when i go down to see the coat hanger and OH as I never go down that end of town, cheers, Garry from the central coast
Nice new over due summer quaff, you were getting a bit shaggy. A future project could be some flopper stoppers, they would make rough seas a bit more enjoyable on that tin can. Congrats on your first pleasure trip, after so much HARD work. Thanks for sharing.
Great video. Sidney harbor is one of the most beautiful places I have ever visited. looks like you had a great time and a good visit with your Dad. Thanks for memories. I wish I could visit again and have some Bugs.
Great video! Takes me back from when I was going in and out of Sydney to Balmain/White Bay container berths. One of the most beautiful harbours in the world IMO.
Glad to see you out and about on Renko! Those initial trips give you an idea of what works, doesn't work, and things you may not worry about ever completing. Congrats to a succesful first cruise.
Thumbs up for taking Dad out.
Enjoyed that very much, thanks - at the end of the day trips like that are the reward for all the sweat and skinned knuckles.
Glad to hear you enjoyed it. :)
I know Im asking randomly but does anyone know of a way to log back into an instagram account..?

@Bodie Sylas it worked and I now got access to my account again. I'm so happy!
Thank you so much you saved my account!
There is something about this guy. Down to earth, Sweet crippled black chicken, I really enjoy his videos,
Im glad you got to take your dad on a cruise in the harbor... This Yank can't get enough of your back yard, here's hoping the engine problems are relatively straight forward and cheap!
@Jim Alley A rubber gasket for my engine was 100USD. It can get pricey for old engines.
@Jim Alley Yeah I know where Detroit is, it's where Henry Ford took over the manufacturing world. and where their drinking water is poisonous from illegal manufacturing waste...
@@cmmartti haha, I did use poetic license!
Loved the home welcome wagon of chickens .... Daffey knows a soft touch like Papa Stu.
It made me feel good to see that boat being used finally.
That HM bark Endeavour is a brilliant visit in the maritime museum.
I visited Sydney 1968 they were still working on the opera house. Took a ferry ride to the zoo on the island, went under the iconic bridge. Was a great trip was r&r from Vietnam.
thank you for serving in Vietnam, I just mist it. I was born in 1953.
got on Ranger, but they wouldn't let us down there, got off the Ranger in 76 and they let it go down. what an opportunity
Wow love the sound of those big diesel engines
So good to see you finally took her out
The moon over my Renko, How beautiful is this and a full moon.....Like a tourist in your own town... at least you can thumb the sites.
During this period of restricted travel I really appreciate you taking us on your trip. I feel much better now.
You're welcome Tom, glad you feel better. :)
Congratulations on a fun trip down with Sydney and thank you for the “tourist” shots of The Sydney Opera House.

Ah Skipper Stu well done!!!!!! Great series, and great to see some smiles which you've truly earnt the hard way! More please!
Thanks mate, will do!
Awesome to see Renko underway, going for something other than maintenance! Congrats on the successful shake-down cruise.
Thanks Ted. :)
Some people laugh, but chickens are relaxing just to sit down and watch em.
All pets are awesome! Good for you.
Chickens are relaxing, but roosters are annoying as f*ck! I know from experience, I have both roaming free through my neighborhood...
Best of all is spring and summertime, though, when the mommy chooks come to my backyard with their chicks. So I guess those annoying loudmouthes are good for something, after all.
They are fun to watch. :)
@@remcovanvliet3018 Indeed, but the hens can be sweethearts if you raise them from chicks.
I prefer the sweet and sour variety !! MMMM
New engine, don't forget to keep an eye on the oil... especially with that stuck ring.
Thanks for taking us along, nice trip. Cheers.
Been waiting 2 years for this video. I hope to see a bunch more adventure vlogs with the boat!!
That Detroit is humming! Sounds good.
Love the sound of the diesel cruising and the waves against the hull. Great trip, thanks for taking us.

Congrats Stu!!! Thanks for the great pics along the way. 👍🏻
Hi Stu, been watching you from the UK for a couple of years now, glad you got out for a trip, and to have your dad meet up, must have been the icing on the cake.
You must be as proud as punch that you got made all this happen after so much hard work, good on you fella!
I do believe Daffy missed you - anyway, thank you for the lovely trip and spectacular sights. It must be great to go cruising after all your hard work on the boat
Thanks Alison, it was great to get out there. :)
Unlikely that you would have spotted a bloke at noakes giving you a wave, but if you did, that was me!
Missed that, but hi! :)
Congrats on what must have been a proud little journey. Thanks for taking us along.
4:39 'The Zoo' that's another way of describing Sydney...
I couldn't have resisted chucking a lure through that bust up, could've scored a few tuna or something else worthy of eating. Nice little cruise
Thanks for the ride Stu. Looking forward to more "ADVENTURES WITH STU!" 😎

,,great to be out cruising with you, thanks for the ride,,,good one, stay safe..
Stu: Glad you got to take her out and had an uneventful trip! Glad you got to see your dad too! Thank you for the vicarious thrill you gave all of us.
Great to see you out at sea after so much work. Must feel really good.
Saaweeet. Good to see you have a usable vessel to enjoy after all the hard work. Now you can enjoy the boat while finishing off, which from memory was the plan.👏👍
What a nice trip, and a nice view of Sydney. Good to see that Renko performed so well. That is the crown to al your hard work. Keep it up Stu.

It sure can be a busy harbour some times. Was very quite while we were there due to Covid though.
Renco is a beast! Sounds like a muni bus. Cant get away from Detriot. Great show
CONGRATS on your true first voyage
It’s great to hear that Detroit purring along. Renko is such a nice boat for coastal cruising.
So sweet Dangar Stu to ride along on Renzo’s first official cruise! 👍👏🏻 What a great feeling for you. Ya even honored her with the new haircut! LOL 😂 Dangar Stu and Renko looking ship shape and in Bristol fashion! 👏🏻👍😀
Thanks so much!!
What a great thing to watch on Fathers Day👍🏻Excellent‼️👌🏻
Glad you enjoyed it. :)

Thanks Paul. :)
Awesome, thanks for taking us along! Cheers.
Good to see the joy on your face..
You look genuinely well rested and happy! Nice to see, you've worked so hard to get to this point, enjoy it with all your heart now!
Thanks mate. :)
So good to see you getting out to actually enjoy your boat, Stu! 🤓👍🍻

Greatly enjoyed the trip that you took us all on. And it was a good shakedown trip for Renko.
Congrats with Renko's "maiden voyage" Stu,and what a nice one it was.,Cheers..!!
I was actually really hoping for this video! Thanks for taking us along. =)
You Badass! You did it! Pops must be very proud of you. We are.
Thanks Sam!
Thanks for diving us a tour of Sydney harbour. Happy memories of working on the refineries there. Kept hearing Reckless in me head 👍
Good song. :)
Dangar Marine so many years of wondering what a “circular key” was. Through you fellas must have weird door locks.
We were just a little excited to see Renko when we took the ferry to Dangar Island for lunch at the Bowling Club on Father's Day. Hoping to come and live there in a few months time.
I love cruising videos, especially coastal cruises. I believe the best way to see a harbor is from the water. So thanks for this one!
I enjoyed riding along. I just moved to the East coast of Virginia here in the States from Alabama, so

I was only in Sydney for a couple weeks, but watching this made me miss it.
Enjoyed the cruise Renko did well,thanks for the trip.
Spring in Australia, here in the US this is the last week of summer, aka labor day weekend holiday.
Great to see you get Renko out on the water after all your hard work - well done Stu.
woohoo, today is the day, great to see Renko on the water making a passage.
Loved seeing Renko on the harbour. I managed to get my old runabout on the harbour once which was an awesome feeling cruising past and under those landmarks
For sure, plenty on runabouts cruising around the harbour on the weekends.
It’s great to see you enjoying the fruits of your labour. It brought back memories of our week in Sydney last year where we were lucky enough to be given a boat tour of the harbour by our friend’s neighbour in his Chris Craft launch.
Really enjoyed your trip, thanks. Looking forward to some exploring with you.
So nice to see Renko traveling under her own power.
Awesome to see all your work finally come together and you taking the boat on a trip!
Thanks Jeremy.

Congrats on the first offshore outing!
Ahhh the sea! Congrats Renko is in passage! Great video. Loved it!
Great to see you go somewhere for a change, nice accomplishment.
This is such a feel good video. It's heart warming to see her on an adventure after all the work you've done!

And de Weeener is Sydaney!
Unreal, Port Jackson.
Great stuff Renko ruling the waves.
Thanks mate. :)
Awesome!! Just the video I’ve been waiting to see.. a Renko voyage! Big hugs to Vicki.
Thanks Dayne, will do. Big smooch to Tam!
That was a magic shot of the OH and bridge with Renco in the foreground.
Love your videos. You are a great teacher,you helped me repair my tilt and trim on my outboard motor. Mathis ,Texas
Thanks Danny.
Great video! Takes me back from when I was going in and out of Sydney to Balmain/White Bay container berths. One of the most beautiful harbours in the world IMO.
Thanks John, it is a beautiful harbour for sure.
Thanks for taking us along what a beautiful area.
Glad to see you out and about on Renko! Those initial trips give you an idea of what works, doesn't work, and things you may not worry about ever completing. Congrats to a succesful first cruise.
Love your videos. Watched this one with a big smile on my face, almost as satisfying as being on my own project boat for her first proper voyage.
Thanks Darren. :)
Good to see your dad. I have not seen him since the SV Seeker Meetup. He was a nice bloke to have a conversation with. :)
Thanks mate, glad to hear you guys had a nice chat. :)
Really good to see Renko's first real trip. What a long way you have come. Well done, Stu.
Great video, nice to see Renco out at sea.
Well thanks for bringin' us all along to Sydney on the Renko...still amazed at how far you've brought that boat in such a short (to us anyway) time...
Good Renko, got you there and back safe with no drama. A+ 🎉🎉🎉
I could watch the cruising videos my hearts content buddy , so glad she's getting to the point of of making the rounds
Thanks Gabe. :)
