so funny finding your channel. i bought a used outboard that came with a free boat here in BC last year, been trying to figure out what the hell it was ever since. stumbled upon your channel and boom! a vivacity 21 it is. we love it, got her out of the water to work on this winter and will be back in the brine in may or june. if the two small boys like coming out on the water i might put some more effort into tidying her up a bit. i'm interested in how you work the vang with the rolling furl boom. anyway, cheers and keep it up! (Suffolk expat farming in Canada here 😃)
Nice one Alex, thanks for sharing your adventures. I was expecting the kettle to be on for a cuppa T. All the best from across the pond where sadly my sailboat is now in storage for the coming winter. ⛵️☀️
@@AlexGoesSailing We loved ours, we cooked a Sunday dinner in ours once! That was a challenge! 😂Great for part baked baguettes and things like that too. 😀
Do you leave a VHF radio on while sailing? I find listening in on some conversations can be quite funny, but you also get important safety and emergency announcements.
Just found your channel and am really enjoying it. Thanks sharing your adventures! BTW, how is your faux teak holding up? I'm considering using it myself.
Thanks for watching and I’m glad you enjoy! The EVA teak foam has held up really well after 2 full seasons. Definitely a good cheap solution that looks good!
@@AlexGoesSailing thanks mate my trailer sailer is 20 foot with a semi fixed keel... hood 20 just wondering if I could get away with a 4hp to save on rego here in Australia (very tight budget) what are your thoughts?
@@AlexGoesSailing I watched a TH-cam video, the guy claimed to have been the chef for the royal family. I've been waiting to show off my new knowledge of English cuisine. 😆

Great episode Alex! Meraki is looking very smart.
What a great sailboat you have I think it is perfect size and looks very comfortable ⛵️❤️
It is a great little boat!

That’s awesome! You should join the owners group on Facebook. Has over 100 members and is great for solving problems and getting ideas!
Woohoo awesome video! You're drone game is AWESOME we need some lessons from you one day 😅
Thank you!!! I owe you one when we cross paths!
Fake! Because it’s never sunny on a bank holiday 😂
Good work with the drone Alex 👍🏻👍🏻
I know I was shocked myself! Thanks 😊
Really enjoyed this video and very jealous. Daniel does a great job as crew and also loved the drone shots Thanks Alex
Glad you enjoyed it! Perfect day for it😀
That was an awesome video...loved every minute of it....
Thanks chris!
Great video Alex and fabulous weather. Boy you have some guts sending your drone that far away. Not sure I am ready to do that with mine. Andy UK
Haha yeah it is a little sketchy!
the shower scene was pure pornography haha.
😂

Thanks for watching! It’s almost time to pack mine up for the winter but I might tough it out for a little longer!
Nice footage Alex. Well done, looks like you had a great time🙂👍🏼
Thanks Jim! It was perfect weather for a relaxed sail!
Great drone shots 👍 Keyhaven is one of my favourite anchorages.
It’s an awesome spot!
You make it look so easy. Great video. Enjoyed the drone footage. I need to get my drone out and fly it some.
Cheers! You should definitely get the drone up it’s great fun!
Have you heard of the Omnia stove top oven? It would be perfect for your longer sailing trips. We had one on Pandemonium, it was great!
Yeah that’s a good idea. I have seen them about and have wondered if I should!

@@GavinAndJames_LifeAfloat looks like I will be getting one to try out then!!!

I have it but typically it’s not on unless I’m near harbour or lots of traffic.

Great video, I need to try some of these spots! What drone do you use?
You should! I use a mavic 2 zoom.
Hey Alex what size outbound motor are you using?
6hp tohatsu saildrive
@@AlexGoesSailing thanks mate my trailer sailer is 20 foot with a semi fixed keel... hood 20 just wondering if I could get away with a 4hp to save on rego here in Australia (very tight budget) what are your thoughts?
@@davepalmer1521 4hp saildrive should be plenty! My 6hp is a little over powered for my 21ft.
What no bangers, no black pudding? What kind of breakfast was that?
😂 a quick one! Will need a bigger pan for next time haha
