Another great video. The quality of seamanship and excellent pilotage information in your videos is very welcome! I became horribly drunk in Swansea after sailing for a week. I'm scared to go back! 😂
Hi again, great episode as always, wish we had been close enough to get you some footage of that lumpy bumpy part. After Oxwich bay we are in Porthcawl, hiding from the gale 👀 really worth a visit, smaller than Swansea but just as friendly & great value for money - please keep those epi’s coming 👏
It was great of you to say hello, must have good bins seeing me bouncing from that distance. You can see why now as you sailed in the correct correction there’s always some nut (me) going the wrong way 🤣 Please I really do make passage plans, they just don’t always work 😳 Best regards and enjoy your season mike
Had a great trip to Swansea. Took in a commercial vessel thay was probably a bit too big for the non commercial harbour there. We took 10,000 of their 11,000 litres of diesel. They really did get us out of a sticky situation 😂
No but on a flatter sea I may use a bungee to tiller seems to work fine. I should have put the wind vane on it doesn’t mind changing directions much but it was the wave stoppers that kept me helming. Cheers 🍻 mike
Hi Malc, doing our best with this weather. Struggling to get a passage plan together half the time TBH. Making great memories though! All the best mike & Lisa
Brilliant well said Brian, and to add to it only 22 are subscribed?? I think I need to try and get it across to people but don’t want to be pushy. Cheers 🍻 mike
Really enjoy your sailing videos. Well done Swallow. x
Your really welcome and I agree well done Swallow ⛵️
Your videos make my want to go sailing asap.... even the bad days.
Think they are for the bad days so you can sail the good ones 🤪👍
How lovely! Thank you
Always welcome 👍

Really nice of you to say so, thanks!
Drunken memories are by far the worst to get over but achievable, so go sail and conquer them.
Cheers 🍻 mike

🤣 I’ll leave you to tell her if your brave enough 🤣
Cheers 🍻 mike

OMG you drained the place dry! Wouldn’t fancy your fuel bill. We just filled up in Dale Sailing 20ltrs 🤣
Luckily I wasn't paying 😂 got us to Newlyn where we filled up again 😆
😳
Do you ever use sheet to tiller steering?
No but on a flatter sea I may use a bungee to tiller seems to work fine. I should have put the wind vane on it doesn’t mind changing directions much but it was the wave stoppers that kept me helming. Cheers 🍻 mike
@@sailingcosiloveit ah, you have a vane. Have you passed Fishguard yet or still down Milford?
Neyland 😁
Barry the bungee?@@sailingcosiloveit

Happy days or happy days sailing both 😅Malc uk

Ain’t that always the way. You could just keep going in the wrong direction forever 🫡

@@sailingcosiloveit I think a subtle mention in the video maybe or a little flash card thing ?
good to see you're still alive after the flatulence.
Taken onboard 🤣
At least you can do close hauled😩
Bet your beast goes to the wind like a greyhound after a rabbit 🐇 🤣
I wish, if it’s chasing the rabbit in reverse. 🤠🤠. I see your Raymarine is fixed. What was wrong?
No it’s a small spare. The bigger unit has stopped reacting to touch! No other way of working it. Going to send it back and see if they can fix it.
