- We're sailing later in the season from Northern Ireland to the South coast of England embarking on a two day voyage. Weather windows are small and the seas have a different plan for us. From sailing wing on wing to nasty waves and current, we navigate through unexpected changes in weather before arriving in Cornwall.

Another action filled video. I can feel the waves, the chop as you sail along. 👍⛵ 👍
If you need a break on dry land, my wife and kids are about to head to HongKong for the Winter but I’m staying to work. So have plenty of extra rooms in Woolacombe, Devon. They aren’t back until mid Feb, you’re welcome to stay until then.
Thanks for the kind offer!
@@SailingJibsea I look out on the sea every day and it reminds me that we should be kind to each other, especially in the Winter!
Bristol Channel is where I learned to sail as a boy in the 1960s. Cold and wet any time of year. And it has the second highest tidal range on the planet. Second only to Bay of Fundy in... Canada! Your avian visitor was probably a Barn Swallow (Hirundo rustica). He or she was en-route to southern Africa. April 2008 I had one cadge a lift ten miles off Exmouth, Devon, England on the return leg of its annual migration. Love 'em.
Does that make her an African or European swallow?
@@secondprize Good question. Those that hatch near Plymouth are Janner swallows.
You guys get better & better in terms of both sailing & video presentation, you deserve a far bigger subscription base. Changing from turquoise seas & white sands to colder climates has enabled you to show how ‘real’ you are which is an absolute credit to you. Well Done indeed and thanks for sharing your story, enjoy a cold winter in the UK but no one will criticise you for hightailing it back to warmer climbs 🥶
Thanks so much. We appreciate that! We’re seeing some pretty neat places that’s for sure! Lots of learning and new experiences come with that and we thrive on that! Thanks for watching 😊
So proud of you two making it this far as first time cruisers.
You've come a long way since the days of Toronto just say'n.
I knew going north this late in the season- you would have trouble with
seas and weather windows. But then again there was the Faroe Islands.
After the England visit- the Bay of Biscay awaits. That will be fun- sorta.
You could have gone directly to the MED- with Italy, Greece, maybe Turkey as
ports of calls- you control the helm in your adventure.
Yes the Carbbiean is a favorable spot, more predictable, clear waters,
warmer for cruising but it is just a tiny portion of this world when
traveling by sea. Did I mention warmer?
Hang tough Jibsea- you are from Canada, you know what toughness is- eh.
Hell yeah!!! I say the same!! From cold arse Tugboat Bearing Sea .. ✌🏼💗😊⛵
Thanks a bunch! It’s crazy when we look back on leaving two years ago! Still winging it! But just factoring in season and schengen now on this side of the globe but those places are on the list!😆
@@SailingJibsea Kool. I enjoy you & Travis adventures so much. Keep winging it. I am watching two other U-Tubers in the Med right now. Cool calm and set the Jib on Jibsea. Edited note: Be very careful near Portugal when nearing the Med. 2 separate pods of Orca's down that way
that like to eat rudders on sailboats.
There are You-Tube vids out there on this. See Teulu Tribe channel for the latest news. Stay safe out there Steph & Travis.
Wow! You guys stay so cool and calm with the rough sea. Troopers. Really felt that one.
Remember this is your ride you don't need to fight against the sea ! Work with her you will be rewarded.....!!! Cross to the Med luv's.. You don't have to prove yourself to anyone... But the Sea... Your both brilliantly wonderful people.. Thanks for sharing your lives with us! ✌🏼💗😊⛵
wind against current is never a fun time! Looks like you made the right choice
It can get pretty hairy & scary out there, many land-lubbers don't have a clue how terrifying it can get.
yous guys are still an inspiration. I am so stoked that y'all are still sailing and exploring life.
Thanks dude!! So amazing to see your name pop up here!! Best of luck on all your travels and adventures of your own!
Guys you will really love Cornwall it's the most beautiful place to be 🇬🇧🍺🍹👍🏄♂️🏄♂️
Wow Sailor 👍
Pleased that you got here safely. Well done!
Wild conditions! Great video guys.
The little bird would have returned to your boat if still needed time to rest. Amazing they fly and navigate from South Africa to Britain.
Bacon & egg roll is Australia's national dish ... every cafe serves them. This means you MUST visit Australia someday !!!
On the list!
Don't know if someone has already commented, but that little bird is a swallow. They fly 3,500 miles from South Africa to Britain in the spring and back again in the autumn. They will rest on a ship / boat for a short time
Yeah! We learned that afterwards 😄
Another great episode guys and good decision making ‼️ Never good to bash the boat around. It's when things tend to break and chafe. You both are having quite the North Lattitudes season. 🎉🎉🎉 See you next week. ✨ 🌊 💨 💨 ⛵️ 🏝 👙 🌞 ✨
Comfortable is what we prefer! Thanks Richard, see you next week 😊
Great decision!
Thanks for a balanced account of your journey.
Thank you for watching!
Really some rough seas there at the 8-minute mark. Stay safe.
What a wild ride guys!!!! Man oh man those were some serious waves for sure. Glad you made it ok, smart to stop and rest for a bit lol. Some great speed though too 10.5Kts is blasting along wow. Seeing dolphins like that has been a bucket list thing for a very long time! great video guys
Wildly uncomfortable but the ability to stop for a couple nights and dolphins made up for it! Thanks as always Marko!
Nicely done.
You have this route planning down! Good job getting there.
Another excellent video! Enjoy your exploring new places but also enjoy your sailing time. Jibsea has a good motion and makes miles readily. New adventures await in Cornwall!
Thanks Robert! Yep she’s got quite a number of miles under her belt now! ⛵️ thanks for watching, as always!
Closer to any coast can bring nasty waves due to the shallowing of the bottom.
Congrats. Enjoy England.
Welcome to Cornwall😎
I use to have a little 26ft Laguna in southern California and always liked hunter sailboats. I enjoyed your video.
Great boats 😄 and we’re glad to hear you enjoyed it, thank you
good vid guys, fyi the pull release on your lifelines should always be pointing into the cockpit so you can let them go in a hurry
Makes sense!
I really enjoy your channel both you and Travis are relatable for me
That’s really nice to hear😊
Ive sailed in no wind to beaufort scale 10+ in the Irish Sea. It aint pleasant and your going to take on a lot of waves/water when it happens. A bit of seawater squeezing in under the dodger is a small flesh wound. But as they say why go to windward when you have some outs.
Yep! There’s no rush so we’d rather be comfortable
What a fantastic name. I haven't watched any videos yet but I surely will subscribe
Thank you! Hope you enjoy the vids!!
And thank you for making great video's! I've been with you from the start.
Thank you so much! We appreciate that!
Was that Donaghadee Lighthouse at the start of this video? Fantastic i hope your stay in Bangor was okay , its full of headbangers that Town
Good eye! Loved the colours of the houses in Bangor
Those are some serious sea states! Great video. Thanks!
Thanks for watching!😆
Cargo, whether it be of goods or cruise lines, or military, unfortunately see the public use as a non priority concern. That's just a reality to stay vigilant. Have radar & AES alarms set for yourselves. Love watching you two. Stay safe and make your own amazing adventures. Hugsss
You no what? You trust the boat. So no reason for concern. But you made a good decision.
TH-cam is full of postcard and IG life sailing channels, they're great, but it's a big world and while getting stuck in the emerald gravity well that is the Caribbean or South Pacific is a wonderful time, the other oceans offer much for the sailor. It's all good.
Press on!
Full agree!
That castle is cool, I was the a few years ago. Love your vids and your attitude in life. When do you get to nz.
We appreciate that! We’d love to make it there one day!
The seas you were in around the 9min mark looked as if you were outside Skomer and Stockholm which would have put you in the ‘wild goose race’ a notoriously rough piece of water. Your journey around the north and west of Britain has been really interesting to watch…
Skokolm
You totally killed the bird, just leave it alone, it'll leave when it wants to leave
Excellent decision guys. Don't push it if you don't have to. Did you bump into any Pirates in Penzance Perchance?
Great film. Take care if you're heading down the Bay of Biscay. It's rough even on the ferry sometimes!
That was some hellish seas! It looked like you were getting very close to that breakwall. I think I would stay in the Caribbean! lol. Stay safe!
🤣 a little more predictable over there!
Found you guys through Instagram and now I'm here. Thoroughly enjoying your videos, keep 'em coming and greetings from a fellow sailor from Norway!
That’s awesome! Glad you found us and welcome😁
She's a nice little POA
Did you get over to see Carrickfergus Castle when you were in Bangor, NI?
No unfortunately didn’t make it to that one
Remember safety doesn't take a holiday
Didn't you just love the tides in Wales?
Another groovy video.
Awesome work you two … cheers from PCYC!
Home turf! Cheers! 🇨🇦
Doubt if the barge was going to south africa cause thats where the swallow was headed although he flew towards Ireland.
Ohh that looks so so lumpy.. i felt really sorry for you..
Why aren’t you guys heading towards the med where it warmer over the winter months. Not sure how far we are to your real time.
I'm kind of glad you went to Dale. I used to windsurf in Dale. After that I went to crewing on a smallish boat at Nayland, a village a few miles up the haven that Dale is in. The boat I was crewing on was a Canadian design or build. A nonsuch (spelling) a single unsupported mast at front with a wish bone like a windsurfer.
Hopefully we helped bring back some fond memories of your time there! Thank you for tuning in 😁
Dang! Rough seas!! How big and what kind of boat is that? Love it!
A 42’ Hunter passage
Awesome. The interior design is really nice. Looks spacious. Your videos are so inspiring. Hope Travis' shoulder is healing up!
I have lived here my whole life and cannot see why, with all of the destinations open to you that you chose the UK when there are so many better places to visit. Most years we have to decide which sunny day to call summer.
We’ve thoroughly enjoyed the UK so far! Some parts of the UK have definitely been cloudier than others but scenic nonetheless!
It's one of the most dangerous seas to sell for novice sailors they are easier roots to plan and funner places to go to see just as much scenic views and fun times you're novices yeah it's not easy living this life you're nomad you're at the will of the weather you're at the will of the sea you don't get to force mother nature to your will it just will not a huge sale that way you'll never be a good sailor it's not about reaching goals of clock in time and stuff I mean you can say like that but you're going to miss a lot of enjoyment in the actual sailing but you guys will get it you made it this far this is not an easy place to sell so I give you credit much much credit don't give up 5 minutes before the miracle happens that's what I was always told.... Sitting in bearing Sea on a TugBoat taking supplies to the oil rigs!!! Try to plan your trips where the tide pushed you forward... A sailor dream🤣😂🤣😂... Ok great episode guy's. I usually don't comment... I watch tho!! Go to France an get to some clear warm water... You both deserve it... So does JibSea.. dolphin riding the bow wake.... Fish on !! Yeah I see you guy's chillin. 8 got a spot in Aruba... Let me know if you wanna go!!! ✌🏼💗😊⛵
@@donnakawanai wanna Aruba
@@GoWTFAdventures lol yes... When?
@@donnakawana it's good you dont comment being that SPELLING isn't your strong suit! It's spelled "SAILING"!
try to stop at Mudeford
No hardtop will get wet
Cant believe you didn’t call in to the Isle of Man, northern England or North Wales🙄☹️
Not yet… lots of time and lots to see!
Who's idea was it to sail to the UK for winter ? You got it back to front
So you're saying that UK actually does have a summer? 🤣 Cape Town South Africa
@@grantpedder7719 😁
17:43 A 30 knot wind, really? The sea seems to be pretty flat for that in the background, nor is there any sound of the wind or white caps. U sure 30 knots? .
We have a full enclosure and a muff on our mic. But yes, we’re sure
on video, seas never show the actual roughness.
Having watched endless videos , the narrators repeatedly remind us viewers that it's much rougher than it looks
Just let the birds stay where the birds at give it some fresh water and some bread crumbs or whatever to eat that's a blessing when a bird picture boat to rest on don't shoot him off to die cuz that's all that's going to happen he's tired that's why he's sitting on your boat. It's bad luck to shoot a bird off your boat when you're at sea....
Interesting, I know it was a tough call for them
Just subscribed :)
Whoo hoo! Welcome😆
Hay. Is that a different outboard.? What happened to the other outboard.?
No same one
Where are you going for winter?
So, you've had a fair amount of time with those folding winch handles now, Are they worth the price?
They work very well on our main working winches for our set up. They’ve earned a permanent home on those winches since we got them
Shipping always has a destination and or an agenda. Ships throughout history have never been considered a permanent home. I don't blame you but you will miss it should you decide to come home. Love your videos and wish you all the best.
they just turned on the engine
You guys desperately need a dehumidifier. It kept my wife and I from selling our sailboat.
You think this is rough?
Imagine no gps or electronics, crappy maps, low on food and cloudy for two weeks so you can’t get a good sextant fix.
Is that what people call the good old days? Doesn’t sound good. lol
We didn’t find it comfortable and we’re on the water 24/7 so if we can stop, we will lol.
First let me start off by saying I really enjoy your channel. You do a great job of explaining the local areas along with what it takes to sell their and to enjoy this lifestyle. However and I can't stress this enough it really disappoints me when I Channel that I really love uses deceptive thumbnails to gain viewership. Now I understand that it's important to get views, subscriptions, likes and comments but at what price. As a viewer I do not like having my emotions played with in a tool to make money. I'm sure you were well aware of how you were phrasing the title and the thumbnail of this video and how people would perceive it. I'm hoping in the future that you are above that and decide to take a higher path. Thanks again for all the videos.
Agreed. I’m out.
No thank you
I've never watched this channel but I'll bet my bank account they are not "calling it quits." I'm also not watching.
The title’s fitting for the storyline but you’d have to watch to find out to understand😜. Give us a chance, we might surprise you, if not, thanks for taking the time to leave a comment anyhow!😆
@@SailingJibsea great. now you guilted me into watching. Fine.
klik bait?
God directs his path, leave him be. don't be selfish and cruel
I think they and all of us learned something.
I know it was a tough call for them.
I watched a lot of sailing channels... This one was the most boring ever???
Clickbait title. Downvoted.
click bait
Take that good looking lady and go HOME, open a cool gym w/cool smoothies and health snacks and keep posting. Sailing sux at times! Why suffer!😡
ha! Traveling by sail is awesome! some discomfort is always part of the deal.
Another click bait sailing channel
Disagree-I don't mind the occasional dramatic title if it helps them. This is permitted given their outstanding guts and achievements. Not to mention they are brave, intelligent, nice, unconstipated, humble people.
Forgot to add talented and hardworking. Cheers
Good thumbnails and titles should entice one to click, thank you 😄 We felt it was fitting for the storyline of this episode
Thanks for the kind words, Charles. Happy to hear you’re enjoying our journey!😄
@@charlesdesaint-leon4279 get off his sack bruh
You definitely killed the bird
It doesn't make sence making sailing videos when there are so much better. I'd give it up
How’s there another video coming if you’re giving up? Misleading title.
Depending how you interpreted it. It’s fitting for the storyline of the episode
The quality of your videos is constantly improving. Well done. Thanks for sharing your experiences. 🤩🌤️⚓🛟⛵ Btw, it's -14C here in BC today!
That’s super cold for BC! Travis only recalls it being that cold once or twice while growing up there! Thank you! And keep warm over there! 🇨🇦
