- Do you have any strategies for attracting dolphins or whales to come and swim along side your sailing boat?, we do!
Sailing across the Irish Sea is the next instalment of our boat life adventure, as we head back over to England on our blue water cruising sailing boat.
On this leg of the trip we're lucky enough to be joined by several large pods of Dolphins on our sail, for which Carly is certain that her methods for attracting them are the reason why.
Do you have ant strategy for encouraging dolphins or whales to join you on your adventure??, If so, do let us know in the comments and we'll swap ideas :)

Beautiful memories being made right here❤
Thanks matey, they are indeed 😬😍
Guys any boat that gets to your destination safely and a motor that needs to give you an excuse to stop and get a pint deserves a BIG YES from me. She's a fun give Hank a kiss n cuddle from me. I'm currently binge watching the show fair winds cheers n beers Marty
Another nice video guys. one tip - get a cheap cigar lighter - they're great for sealing the end of lines and completely portable, no more taking the line to the cooker :)
That's a great idea, Amazon here we come 😁!
Another great episode, who can ever get tired of seeing dolphins... Some lovely footage and love the music choices very apt. Andy UK
Thanks, Andy, glad you enjoyed the journey with us. 👌
Just started watching your videos after hearing the mention on Sail Life. This upload in particular has great crisp clear shots up close and also in the water. Enjoyed it a lot. Thank you!!
Hey Chris, that’s an oldie but a goodie. Brings back so many memories of some of our first dolphin encounters 😁😁
Welcome to the gang, mate ⛵️🙏😁😁
I just subbed, I just retired and am getting ready to live aboard again. This time I am going for comfort, instead of a floating bed and toilet with a steering wheel that has no need for flood insurance. I checked out your channel for the boat, never heard of one before, I like it! Oh yeah, the dolphins came for the tunes, they just LOVE music and can hear it through the hull. I found out years ago that usually worked. Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young or Jimmy Buffet seemed to bring around the best for my taste in music. Fair wind and a following sea!
Another awesome video! You guys look like you are having a blast! Dom you have a great captain, Carly is always smiling and laughing which is awesome nothing seems to bother her. The opening Carly is telling us about all the problems, but smiling the whole time. Raising a pint to you guys! Have fun and be safe!
Thanks, appreciate it. Yes, she's almost bullet proof, and when things start to wear on me slightly, she's just happy and smiling, with a simple shrug and something like "first world problems" coming out of her mouth, it goes a long way to putting things into perspective in those moments. :)
Love the music selections! Great videos...I'm following. :) The boat has a good mind on the pub. :)
Thank you very much! and yes, it's the boat which keeps luring us to the pub 😬
Great sailing info. We are a family of 5, just buying our first sailboat. We are new TH-cam friends and just found the Facebook TH-cam sailing channels. I think we are in for a great new community
Cornwall was back in sight, England is next door. Lovely videos guys.
Cheers, glad you liked it 😁
Niall O'Toole the harbour master in Arklow is a real gentleman who we always pop into visit when heading down/up the Irish sea
I think Carly and Eddie may have seen him but I’m pretty sure that’s where I was feeling unwell and so those two ventured out without me.
Just started watching your videos. Really enjoying them so far. I love that the first thing you want to do when you get ashore is go to the pub!
Your videos are fantastic! The soundtracks are such a fresh approach and make it feel like a cinematic epic, please make a Spotify playlist. Keep the videos coming guys, absolutely brilliant!
Oh Yes now we are sailing . You just made this armchair sailor V Happy. just wot i needed after a s@*t day at work. Great Ep guys. Looking forward to see wot miss Carly will do to get Whales ...... Much hugs safe sail guys .....
Probably an commercial kitchen, industrial sized tin of sardines?! 🙈 Glad you enjoyed it too, it’s awesome to be able to share the journey in this way 😊
@@CadohaAdventures Sweet...Would be nice to see a time line.... Date filmed .... Hugs ....
rossipop noted 👌
There's no arguing with that.
Tuna chunks and Elton John.
Proven method. Good work.
A really fun video. Enjoyed it. Thanks for posting. Nice looking boat too!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it, and we’re pretty smitten with the boat too 😁😍
oggi oggi oggi .... welcome to Cornwall xxx
My favourite place in England 👌🏻
Hi guys,like you said,a lovely gentle sail home,not without a few difficulties,but home safe and sound👍☺️
Well Carly,I don't know if it was sardines,the music,or just your charm,but there were dolphins 🐬 to keep you company for most of your passage😊
There were indeed, and that alone made any boat difficulties seem to fade away 😬
Lovely drone footage and music!
Great watching your adventures unfold, great seeing you stay calm when shit happens!! thank you for your videos
It’s amazing how calm one can look with careful editing 😬
Glad you’re enjoying this little adventure so far 😁
I love sailing. its winter, so try to get a fix from watching others. This really is one of the best sites - the other one I watch is Finding Avalon. Your drone footage is really excellent - very moving when accompanied by your choice of music. Keep them coming please.
Glad you enjoyed it, Robert, I have to put my hands up, I love playing with the drone, it brings out the nearly 40yr old child in me 😬😂
Carly the Dolphin Whisperer!!!🤣🌬⛵😎
Sardines, a dolphin escort and the proper recon back to your native soil ... nice vlog again Cadoha crew
Yes we’re really loving how this journey as well as this little online diary is unfolding. Life has never felt so colourful as it does right now. 😁⛵️
Carly hanging over the edge with the tuna gave me a flashback to chief Brody in Jaws 😂😂
I'm still not convinced the tinned fish made a difference, but Carly is. We'll never know 😂
Love the epic music in your vids!
Cheers, Tom, I have an eclectic taste in music to say the least 😂
Absolutely amazing footage! Love watching ‘Team Cadoha’ x
Glad you enjoyed it 😬
fine video
Brilliant video yet again Dom and Carly, really enjoying your journey with you!! Maybe see you at Darren and Andy’s birthday 👍🏼
Yes we’ll be back for that. Wouldn’t miss the inaugural rounders match for all the tea in China. 👌
I agree! Us nautical types are sticklers for using the correct terms. Good voyage though.
Right, so toilet, kitchen, bedroom, front, back, left, right and ropes........ are all no no’s 😬
Nice video
What a great journey! Loving the vlog. Probably my favourite sailing vloggers out there! Keep it up.
You what, you mean to say you watch other people’s blogs?! 😳
Really great images.
Thanks, we were really spoiled with the weather and all the dolphins 😬
They looked like short-beaked common dolphin (Delphinus delphis), a wonderful sight, dolphins swimming in bio luminescence is the most ethereal sight.
I know this was all a little tongue and cheek, but just a few of my pointers for bow riding.
Maintain steady course and speed, your Warrior 38 should be just perfect the social interactive species enjoy surfing bow wake (but many species do not interact...don't push it), if a few people can safely move forward to help the bows push a little more water all the better. 4-6 kts is a great speed.
Remain calm, they are curious wild animals (some people call out, play interesting music, which is fine.....just no drums, tympany or triangles).
Running engines is fine (consensus is that it's reassuring for dolphins to help locate position of the boat) however I do like to turn my echo sounder off if safe to do so, as they produces a loud continuous clicks which I'm sure is unwanted noise polution (so no need to make it uncomfortable for them)
Don't chase them down or intercept their course especially whales, try and maintain a respectful distance (let them come to you), many places have guidelines for whale watching.
Tinned fish hmmmmmm.....no, feeding wild animals no!.....that being said from my time on commercial fishing boats dolphins can be very selective, know what they like and can easilly become habitualised to/take advantage of an easy, tasty fresh live meal. I have observed them selectively choosing aparitives like prawns, whiting, wolf herring, hairtail, mackrel, tuna and squid from commercial catches.
Happy days
They really are incredibly curious and very playful animals. When I was alone with them, I did wonder, given how smart they are, do you think they realise that I’m a separate entity to the boat? You know how an orca can differentiate between a seal and floating ice, as in they are aware that a seal is ‘hiding’ on top of a block of ice, do you think a dolphin knows we are living creatures, on a floating object?
Ah hadn't realised you had visited my homeland.
That’s correct!
They left because you ran out of Sardines! :) What a fun trip.
Your first night shifts??? I think you two mean night watch ya landlubbers!!! You have to use the correct jargon now guys. Best wishes to both and keep up the good work.
Ha ha, it's that obvious huh? :)
@@CadohaAdventures In truth I'm now the landlubber not you, so my post was merely a gentle tease, having come ashore finally after sailing round the world two and a half times over a period of 12 years. But I genuinely look forward to reliving some of my past experiences as I watch you two travelling and developing your already excellent channel. Fair winds and following seas to you both.
Time Bandit wow, 12 years?! That’s epic! How has it been adjusting back to life on land??
Absolutely top stuff! I really enjoy this amazing adventures of yours..the music really sets it all off. Also just love the footage of Cadoha under sail!
Keep safe and well and the episodes coming....!!!
ps re the whales etc...I live in the whale capital of Australia, Hervey Bay, Queensland...the Humpbacks migrate north from the Antarctic to breed from July to November every year and there ARE thousands of them. Even an albino (very famous, Migaloo) Humpback. The pros that do the whale watching tours simply glide up to about 300m from a pod and the whales just come to you and have a look. They are very inquisitive. Check out some footage on TH-cam. Well woth the trip to Oz...!! (lol)
Glad you are enjoying coming along on this little adventure. The drone footage under sail is awesome, but, and there is a very huge but, landing the drone back on the boat is beyond scary when you’re sailing 🙈🙈🙈
Australia is a suburb of London!!!
for some reason, YT decided to show me your channel. don't know why, as i've been following sailing channels for 3 yrs. all i usually get is crappy music/news and movies. none of which i care for. anyway, good vid, thanks. now i will go back and watch your other 12 eps and see if i like you :-)) don't worry, your're off to a good start. :-)
A bugger, you've started with the best video, I apologise in advance for the portrait filming in the early videos, ha ha. Glad you enjoyed our humble little adventure and happy to have you 'aboard' :)
@@CadohaAdventures we'll see :-))
So was it the sardines or the music?
Guys what are your favourite sailing TH-cam channels?
Mega dolphin footage how freaking awesome is that !!!
I actually made a video of my favourite channels here: th-cam.com/video/xNHblu3vMU8/w-d-xo.html
I feel it only right and proper, to gloat a little. Thanks to my old pal Dom and his beautiful better half Carly, for a wonderful weekend aboard Cadoha. You really are living the dream!
Dom, I hope you have not stubbed your toe anymore!)
Ha ha, mate it was a great weekend, great sail, and awesome to just anchor up and go for a swim in such blistering heat!!!. Sharing the journey either through the videos or mates coming aboard, makes it all the more worthwhile 😬⛵️😎🍸
OMG,,, Dom,, i nearly had to turn that off at the end !!!
Ha ha, I can see how that may upset your Scottish sensibilities 😳
Funnily enough we were just talking about you the other day. We met a couple who’ve just bought an Elan yacht down in Hamble, who are essentially doing the trip we’ve just done but in reverse, and they’re intending to have their boat moored up in Peterhead, so told them they should look you up 👌😬
@@CadohaAdventures huh !! i just put my fingers in my ears instead !!,, seriously th , good to see you both getting on so well and having fun,,, yes, i i will keep an eye out for the Elan ,,, bugger, i think you must have taken the good weather with you as it has been pretty dreach here since you left ,, still hoping for some sunny days,,, cheers Rod
roderick mchardy they’re from your neck of the woods, don’t panic 😉⛵️
If you do not have to make an unplanned stop or a detour your not sailing. Dolphin are smart, and very curious. My way of calling dolphin is to do a slow rhythmic pounding on the hull. From a nice seat on deck aft, simply slap the hull once every 5-7 seconds. Not a loud knock out punch. Just as simple boom.........boom.......boom....boom. Within 5 min. you will have dolphin if any are in the area. I have had those love creatures get within 2 feet of me, roll a bit on their side to get a good look at who is making that boom sound. They will hang around for a good look time. The seem genuinely happy, at least they are all smiling at me.
They really are amazing animals, the look in their eyes is so human like that I can't help but wonder just what they're thinking when they see us on the boat, do they understand that we're living things on a floating object or if they think the boat itself is a large living thing?
Great choice of music!
Glad you liked it. Figuring out what music goes with which scenes has actually been tricked than we imagined, so always good to hear the hours of trawling through music sites was worth while 😬😬😬
🐬
i have to say you are the top of my list for favorite channel love watching you all onboard sailing but you really don't have to try and chum up the dolphins they will just come on there on you can just eat the sardines and crackers they will help any seasickness, I ate them the first time I went to sea and never ever got seasick and was in rough sea that made an aircraft carrier looks like a submarine don't worry about the jargon just remember the bow is up front the stern is the rear port is left and starboard is right most important you don't have to take a pee or poop that's all just got to do with using the head . oh and how is hank coming along
Any and all sea sickness strategy is very welcome!! 😬😬😬
Hank loves being on the boat, the issue we still haven’t cracked is getting him to go to the toilet, he’s too well house trained (Carlys doing), so we can’t go too far afield right now 😕
@@CadohaAdventures until you just break down and bring him onboard he never will he can and will hold up to it be harder on you both than him but he will give in you may have to put him in the dingy take him to land to run but all sailors have to do that, i think the seasickness is more mind over matter than anything they made fun of us all when we first came onboard ship but I just was determined to show them and it worked for me
As the late Frank Carson would have said " it's a cracker "
😁
Have I missed something? Why have you appeared to have lost a crew member?? No explanation so far...............
Yes, Mike jumped off in Ireland as we ended up there for a few weeks and he had to get home.
They keep begging for more Sardines!
Ha ha, Carly is more convinced than I am that they were indeed after more sardines. :)
😂🤣🤣🤣
Don't use the word "BREXIT", dolphins are EU minded..............
That’s easy, just keep Eddie off the devils wee 😈😬
12 minutes of my life spent into trying to fish the title of your video in your video, only to realize that there is nothing useful there. If you wonder why you dont have views on your channel, this is exactly why. Maybe start from making RELEVANT titles.
Having had many millions of views on this channel, I have to admit I never found myself asking that question, especially as we just made the videos for friends and family to follow along? 🤷🏼♂️
@@CadohaAdventures well, title relevancy is expected at the very least. And without subscribers, views are just random algorhitmic luck.
