Walking around Calais, which boat caught my wife's eyes? There was Reach Out. What a coincidence, I only subscribed to the channel a couple of weeks ago. Have a great time.
😆 what are the chances?! If you're around tomorrow and fancy un verre du vin, give us a shout!
@@sailinghjem I wish we could, but our ferry back to the UK means we're at the dock at 1020. Many thanks for the invitation but that wasn't the intention. Actually, what we really wanted was to meet the scruffy one on 4 legs - lol - She's ace, such a character.
Maybe we'll bump into each other again sometime when we bring our 32 footer overseas.
Have a great time whatever you do, I'm trying to catch up with episodes.
@@StevenCopeland-co2xt that’s all that anyone wants 😂 I can understand it though, she’s a little belter 😃
Well done, both! Council cant be bothered to do its job, but still wants lots of money. Who would have thought it ?!?!
Thanks very much!
Hi both really enjoyed your vlog.. we've never been to Whitby always looks busy, but after watching this we'll definitely have to go even if it's just for the fish & chips. We've stalked you today we bet your a little moist!!! 😱🌧️ Enjoy your arrival drink 🍷
Oooooh soggy to the core! It was a very grey, featureless day at sea. Made up for last night with some EPIC fish and chips from my new friend the Greek Cypriot dessert chef now fryer and his Bulgarian wife 😂 I filmed it, don’t worry 😉
If you go to Whitby and try the Magpie Cafe, let us know how it is! It has BIG potential, I’m sure it would have been a winner but for the,long weekend!
I know that day well as was sailing from Fishguard to Pwllheli harbour over cardigan bay. Was choppy as hell with wind on the nose. 😂
Good to see yo oot n aboot enjoying fish n chips😊
Thanks Paul, if we don’t do it, someone else will 😂
Aye, the Magpie.
Me and the lasses took a 5hour round trip from County Durham, just cos I wanted... neeeeeded fish n chips. Aye, go when the boats are just back in
Bugger... now I have to go to Scarborough... more chippies calling to me 😊
❤ from Northeast England ❤️
😂 I understand the calling of the fish n chips!
Wasn’t it hot bank holiday Monday and you with a big jumper on 🥵 🤣
First! ❤
I'm on my way home to eat pasta, I am not amused watching you two slate a meal that literally has my mouth watering! 😉
Haha, we have to keep up the standards! Enjoy that pasta, one of my favourite things to cook. I sense a pasta dish coming up actually 😅
It's a bit counter intuitive, but in my experience, more RPM equals more water. At stop, you shouldn't really have much water ingress, when prop shaft turning there should be some, therfore more RPM equals more water, or so it seems!
That does make…. Sense! Thank you Peter!
I have been admiring your Bimini and as I am in royal quays this year can you tell me who made it please. Also, and this may sound stupid- what is a packing gland, do you mean the stern gland and if so how are you measuring how hot it is? Great channel guys!!
Hello Chris, it was made by Steve Douthwaite, he’s local to the area and does great work. A quick Google will get you his details. He also makes sails. We’ve managed to install three 130w solar panels onto it as well, they weigh only 2kg each and have been putting out nearly 2kw a day and it’s not even summer!
A packing gland is part of the stern gland, it has a stuffing box where you out some pieces of waxed flax to prevent water ingress when thee prop shaft turns. Some people now have the drip less version.
Thanks very much for the feedback!
Looking forward to what you’ll eat when you’ve left the uk. No more fish and chips 😂😂
I have thought about this… in a mild state of panic. But surely they must have some kind of equivalent. If they do, we’ll find it!
Wow! did that fish still have the skin on??? mmmmmmmm
You tend to have to ask for it to be removed in the north of England mate, 99/100 it’s skin on 😀
sad to say but the council sold the dredger just before it changed from Scarborough borough council to northalerton, and the dredger is sat in Whitby without a crew, both Scarborough and Whitby are silting up, and Whitby is actually getting dangerous on the bar between the pier extensions. you could touch bottom at low tide, and if there is even a slight Northerly in the wind it is now breaking between the piers, new visitors to Whitby without local knowledge should not enter even in a 10 kn Northerly until 3hrs after and 3hrs before low water. Perhaps someone should get this in notice to mariners.
Wow, then that makes absolute sense Robert. What a shocker! It’s been the story of our east coast passage so far, silt! Everywhere seems to be waiting for a dredger. It’s only in the large ports we’ve seen dredgers in operation, namely Grimsby and Harwich.
Really good advice there, thank you for sharing.
Wasn’t it hot bank holiday Monday and you with a big jumper on 🥵 🤣
At sea, it was freezing! And it still is! 😂
It will warm up just keep going south 😂👍
I think we followed you out of Whitby on the first bridge that day, we were heading to Hartlepool we had about 1 hour of wind then nothing!! We could have done with the wind you had.😀😀 At Scarborough, we have also been in the mud there, seems to be the norm especially at springs. Good luck with your trip, fair winds!!
