It's good to find another ketch to follow. Bugger about your gearbox. We went through very similar dramas with ours a few years ago. It cost us a lost month in Bundaberg. Cheers!
Stumbled across these videos and love them. well shot with audio picking up the waves and winches etc, feels like you're there yourself. This episode was hard to watch at the end. Sail life can turn on you at anytime, glad you made it through though.
Thanks for that Ollie, the good part about the story was that I stayed on Hamilton for seven months working as a Marine Engineer before we headed off. We are actually in Darwin now and I'm just about to put the episodes together of the last legs of our journey up to Darwin, but the fun times continue, Covid, broken rudder, all sorts of fun so I hope you enjoy these as well when they come out. Cheers
Hi Robbie, we are so sorry to hear what you are facing. Would it be possible to sail/be towed to Airlie maybe staying on anchor waiting for the parts to come in to save a few dollars? There are two places for lift out there so you can be on the hard if need be. Is there anything we who are in Melbourne can do to support you? As an aside great to see the relationship between you and your brother. All the best, Rod and Lillian
Hi Rod, I have to confess, this was shot in August and we are all up and going again now after me working as a Marine Engineer on the island for four months saving some dollars, but that is on another episode my friend. You can’t hold a good pirate down, but you can tell him his slack and edit some more episodes so his you tube Chanel is more up to date. I promise I’ll catch up soon….cheers buddy.
Another great video. We know Hamilton well so brought back great memories. We had our syndicate boat moored at Hamilton, which we had for several years. Looking forward to the next episode. Cheers
@@hthring thanks buddy, just editing the next episode now. We get going again but it was a lesson in having faith in yourself and getting the right mechanics and engineers on your side believe me. You’ll soon see what I mean, thank you so much for following our adventures. It makes the hours of editing all worth while…
Good luck bud hang in there
