    Perfect size boat for you and the dog's going on little adventures 👍👍🇺🇸

    What a great adventure! Lara and Tupac seemed to enjoy it. 'It's pissing it down with rain' cracked me up.

      "wetter than an otters pocket" on the return leg hence not much footage.

    ❤ Drascombe! Your doggies clearly the star of the show!! ❤ the folding wood grille. Who makes this? Thx.

      Hi there, the grill is made buy Volcann, I went for it because it's marine grade stainless steel.

    Cool video. A boat tour would be awesome 👌

      Thanks for the feedback and the suggestion. I will get around to doing a boat tour soon, stay tuned!

    Nice outing. Thank you! One concern, though-- I wonder if the dogs disturb the resident or migratory wildlife there-- especially birds. Cheers!

      Wouldn’t it be fair to assume that John keeps his dogs in check…. and that birds (being part of nature…) know how to recognise predators (no more than being another part of nature….) hence know how to deal with that knowledge… without total panicking….
      Surely if the ongoings were not like so John would not venture in these sort of places….

      @henktulp4400 Good sentiment, and I would hope so. I have seen so many incidents over the years by less thoughtful trekking dog-owners that I am concerned. Thanks.

    How do you deal with toileting the dogs? I have a small boat and a tiny dog, and I keep thinking about it

    • @johnleonardandpack
      @johnleonardandpack  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      At the risk of stating the obvious, a good walk before setting off is a good start, and try and plan a route that allows for some beach stops though out the day.
      My younger dog, who is still a puppy does go on the back of the boat, which sounds grim but it's actually really easy to wash it all away with a bucket of water. My elder dog has a very strong bladder. Happy sailing!

    No mention of midges, John! Looks like you had a lovely peaceful time. (Correct me if I'm wrong, but by 'cosy' cabin do you actually mean cramped?😄)

    • @johnleonardandpack
      @johnleonardandpack  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Midges genuinely not that bad! At least they can be escaped on the water. The cabin is perhaps a little cramped but in wet or windy weather its still great to get in the warmth and relative dry!

      If you approach a Coaster thinking "cabin" then it's cramped. If your frame of reference is bivvy bag or tent then it's cosy luxury.😂⚓

      Thanks John. We got out on mine for the first time on Tuesday. Think my first overnighter will be over to the Holy Isle off Arran.
