- This video documents the first part - Southampton to Scotland - of a journey made aboard Venture II in 2012. The footage has previously been uploaded in short segments because, at the time it was shot, You Tube restricted the length of videos to under 10 minutes. Hopefully this longer format will provide a better feel for this exciting journey.

I only found this channel a couple of days a go. David attenborough eat your hat. If i'm not mistaken. These videos were created by Tony fleming himself. Sailing on his own yacht. Built in his own boat yard.I bend the knee Sir.
Thank You So Much!! I'm a 79 year old land lubber from Washington State, U.S.A. I would never have dreamed to travel to these exotic places without this Great video. Here in my twilight years, am so blessed to have this opportunity.
I was just saying the same , thought it funny we share the same name lol Paul Smith but from Scotland 😁
I never considered the British Isles 'exotic'.
Same for me, but from Ca,
the british isles just keep giving
Good old Great Britain, we’ve been here independent from 1066 the last time these lands had been successfully invaded, no other country in the World can say that!
Dear Tony, Your expertise in making these videos should be held as a bench mark to travel documentary makers everywhere, I enjoyed every single second, with your wonderful knowledge and passion for everything encountered on your sojourns, just like we had been there with you, bless you for posting this, I shall look forward to seeing more, take care and best wishes for calm seas and prosperous voyages
I agree Whole hearteredly!!
@@davemccorquodale5148 Thanks Dave, there is far too much mediocrity abounding with the so called celebrities and bad presenters....take care and thank you for your support
👍👍👍👍This is better than any of the past BBC's documentaries on the coastlines🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨🇻🇨👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿👊🏿
If I had a wish in my life , it would be to take a trip with you guys. Your movies are all so awesome. What a beautiful ship.
They could fill the QE2... LOL
@@108hindu You are very correct.
Me too 😊, would like to go with🤭👍
Maybe we could get him to do a trip with a few of us fans onboard lol
I would definitely pay for the chance to experience a trip like this. Ive watched all of the videos of Venture and dream of someday being able to do the same.
Cheers mates
Maybe we can get our own boat and do it just like Tony did :)
The Scottish coastline and its stunning islands were superb with a very interesting narration.
What a treat this amazing film has been. Thank you doesn’t seem to convey my gratitude accurately but know it is heart sent.
such a gift for telling a story....a good eye for scenes and beauty, s sense of how to tie all together, great selection of music to set a feeling, and that voice....sage, calm, knowing. God has certainly blessed him w/such gifts, and not to mention the ability to design great boats, and I am glad to have come across these videos.
What a beautiful film. Thank you for taking us with you on your journey. We're looking forward to watching part 2 later on ...
Thank for sharing this beautiful experience. Nature is wonderful, and the woman singing in the cave, ..no words
Spectacular nature very well filmed, and oh, the _abundance_ of spots for diving enroute! . . . .
Looking forward to Part 2, and the Faroe Isles!
Thank you again for a view through your eyes so poetic in nature and word
Thank you for this beautiful film l am a old Fisher man form Holland my first visit was on 64 to Oban so good to see this back thank you
As a Scot I suppose I’m biased, this was absolutely stunning !
If the weather is half decent there is no where I’d rather be than the west coast of Scotland .
It’s utterly beautiful!
What an absolutely fantastic documentary, I’ve visited the outer Hebrides only for a couple of days , what a wild place to live.
Tony has done a fantastic library of films and his dialog is great! We sold our classic 40 foot Matthews 15 years ago. We spent 25 years cruising Washington and British Columbia and thanks to Tony for being able to relive the many places we cruised, as we are now 80 years old.
Oh wow! What an amazing record of a journey. I would so love to be a part of that. Superbly narrated and edited. I shall watch part two tomorrow, until then I shall lay in my bed tonight dreaming of sailing those waters......! Well done for putting this together and thanks for sharing this.
A beautiful film, it would win awards in film competitions, well done and thanks for posting
I've lived next to the Atlantic ocean my whole life, boating, swimming every season, this is a great series of videos I enjoy very much, these boats are well thought-out and stable ocean going vessels, thank you for virtual cruises and great scenery and ports of call. 🙏🌎🇺🇸🇨🇦
Great commentary, with all the hype of today it's refreshing to hear straight forward, intelligent commentary. Much appreciated.
Quite stunning and wonderful. Thank you for making videos to take us along on your journeys.
A very beautiful video which I really enjoyed thank you! It seems that you have inherited your great grandfather's poetic view of things. We have had visits to many of these wonderful places, including Jura, Mull and Iona. The guys piloting the tour boat to Staffa are very skilful in mooring at that jetty, it must take a lot of practice and no room for error! The puffins on Staffa were so lovely. Loved your picture of Poolewe 55:44
Thanks for taking the time to document your travels for the rest of us.
Beautiful beautiful video and narrative! Enjoying watching on TH-cam while at home recovering from a skin infection on a rainy day.
Absolutely lovely shores castles and your knowledge of you voyage loved your video
Love so much the venture II story to Iceland... history culture wild flowers sheeps...so touching journey, thanks so much...
Thank you from
Adelaide, South Australia, Australia
❤ the journey
❤ Robert Louis Stevenson & his father.
Learning every day about my Great Nannie family.
The jagged cliffs with little tufts of grass for the birds to nestle into is wonderful to see.
What a brilliant video! I loved it. Two thumbs up!!
Thanks for sharing. We have only just recently bought a yacht. This has planted some seeds for future adventures.
Stunning places so expertly presented, this is so engaging and appreciated by one with a passion for exploring and photography.
As a stick and rags sailor I have to thank you for a wonderful travelogue. Every aspect, photography, sound, music, narrative, choice of shot and seamanship was unquestionably superb. Thank you for sharing. Capt John
Tony, thank you for such an expert documentary. What a pleasant and relaxing evening you have provided me, form your spot on music,knowledge, photography, your spectacular focus on presentation and your extremely calming voice, all put together in such a natural way as to perfectly match the beautiful natural surroundings you have shared with us. I have learned over time that one must put a lot of time and effort into making these videos and to accomplish such quality, one must love what they are doing. I admire and respect the position that you have accomplished in life to enable you and your family/ friends to do these adventurous trips, you deserve it as I can feel your enjoyment, taking us along and sharing something that we will not get the chance to do. We owe you, CHEERS. Jim Young Halifax Nova Scotia . By the way, it sure would have been nice to visit with you guys when you were in Halifax awhile back.
Very well done video record of a remarkable trip. Unlike too many travel videos, you keep the focus on the scenery, not the traveler. The narration is lean and informative. My only regret is that you lost your primary, higher definition camera relatively early in the trip.
The cinematography, musical scores and narration in your documentaries are stunning and on the level of Nat Geo.
Thanks so much for sharing your journeys!
Your documentaries truly take me away when I watch them. I’ve said it before captain. You sir are very good at this. (And building wonderful boats)
thank you for sharing such an epic journey. Beautiful photography
Amazing opportunity to join such a journey even in screen during our restricted seasons. And what an experience it must be, if the spectator mate is a yachtman!
Thank you very much for the sharing,

Very interesting and so good to listen to . Love the videos of Fleming ventures !! Thankyou
Wow!
Sensational film reminding me of a few stunning places I’ve been too.
What fun you must of had.
Lovely 🛥
My father was stationed in Iceland back in the '60s and I hear it's beautiful Thank you for sharing your venture with us and💞 showing us God's 💞 beauty
I love the blue door on the old stone house. Such a splash of color in all that gray
Thank you for sharing and taking the time to make this. I'm in complete awe of the scenery and history. From Bristol UK
Your narration and film-making skills are a notch above and the naturalistic content is breathless.
Man that was heaven, I felt like I just had the best journey of my life, just something about this documentary, the way its narrated was just relaxing.now I want to be a sailer.
I am stunned and delighted to come across this series. Two years ago My Wife and Daughter Toured Scotland, including many places that you visited. I will return, soon and for a while so as to know the people. Thank you for the memories.
Simply one of the most beautiful documentaries to watch.
Just so wonderful. Thank you for the chance in a life time to join you .
Very enjoyable quite a bit of Scotland I have visited over the last few years Thank You have also been to Iceland many years ago.
Excellent. I love your documentary adventures. Many thanks for sharing them. regards
How lovely to see the beautiful coastline of our wonderful British Isles. Your narative is reminiscent of Sir John Betjeman, a gene you have obviously inherited from your great grandfather. It is one of the best documentaries i have seen for a while.
Thank you for this wonderful video. I lived 8 years on the west coast a truly lovely place but it can be brutal in the winter.
What an amazing vlog and what an awesome trip. Thank you for sharing this footage again with us, but now in this extended version.
Iceland is a truly amazing landscape. Recently I have watched u tube videos of Itchy Boots on her motorbike and Tucker Gott flying his parameter over this volcanic land, both showing different aspects, ItchyBoots being a geologist adding a lot of detail about the frightening volcanos.
Stunning video and narration, you captured a true beauty in full glory
Dear Mr Fleming. Thank you for producing this excellent video.
What a stunning narration of a great journey, and very informative too.
Such a wonderful piece of art, thank you so much for sharing. I have sailed those waters many times in my time with The Royal Fleet Auxiliary. I would love the chance to sail them and take in the stunning beauty of the west of Scotland at a leisurely pace like you have. Interestingly, for all the seas and oceans I have sailed upon, the passage from Rosyth to Glen Mallan in Loch Long was the worst seas I ever encountered. Hurricane force 13 in the
treacherous Pentland Firth with it's 16 knots tide is probably the only time I have ever been in fear of my life at sea.
Beautifully narrated sir.
Mesmerizing! Tony, you are simply the best. What else can be said? Thanks for who you are and what you do.
Most people think British weather stinks but give me this any day; the atmosphere and changing mood is simply stunning in the right locations - no such thing as bad weather in UK, only bad clothing, preparation and equipment. Thanks for a lovely reminder for some of the places I have visited over the years. Gary: North Wales,
This is stunning in its imagery & equally impressive in its narration. 🙂
Wow what a complete gem of a video. Thank you so much. What a trip! Loved the accompanying soundtrack as well . 👍👍👍👍
I was entranced from start to finish. It's just brilliant. I have so much admiration for anyone taking a trip like this. The video is perfectly done. Thank you so much! Greetings from the west coast of Florida😊😊😊😊
People seem so nonchalant about passing in front of the ruins of a castle in a modern day vehicle be it boat or car. Just seeing these magnificent structures gives me goosebumps, I am so impressed. Everything that I have seen in these wonderful videos emphasizes the cohabitation between the ancient and the modern.
Neptune with ' Trishul' Trident ( at 7.09 )......Sir ! you have already exceled in all respect........grateful & lucky to have been experiencing these unimaginable journeys through your excellent coverages ! Conveying my deep respect to you & your companions as well.🙏🙏🙏 Namaste !!
Thoroughly enjoying this! Thanks for all the planning and effort put into this quality piece of work. Great for forgetting Covid woes for a short while!
What are great documentary! Beautiful. Cheers to hard work, and good decisions in life that allowed you to make such an awesome journey and the skills to turn it into a wonderful documentary for us all to enjoy!!
Thank you for this wonderful video. Your entertaining and informative commentary perfectly compliments the breathtaking scenery.
What a stunning journey........ thank you. ❤️❤️👀❤️❤️🇨🇦
I really appreciated your straightforward approach and you sound very much like people I grew up with, and adventures I have had. At 78, soon to be 79 sailing alone for me is no longer an option, and although I held a USCG 100 ton ticket years back, I am no longer qualified. But your documentary certainly brought back many memories and for an old man, DrakesPassage on a cruise ship was spectacular.
Your documentaries bring a smile to my face! Thank you! "I've slipped the surly bonds of earth" (Richard Bach) through a career in aviation...but my desire to learn to sail is in my blood.....how about a tandem kayak with a $17 sail? Reckon that would suffice? The waters are calling! Ocean liners don't really count, although they provide a joy upon the seas....I'll settle for a catamaran with a gib and main........or, a kayak with a $17 sail. Or a seaplane rating.......my bucket list has done spilt! And "1984"....with George Orwell.....and we're sitting here watching this come into fruition....but just a retro thought to a 70 year old in November....Again, thank you! The music is always a plus!!! Mendelssohn! I've played a bunch of his piano works. Guess I should shut up until the end of this presentation? And, Behold! The beauty of His Creation! The shark, I thought, at first may be a whale shark, but clarified in your commentary. Basalt formations abundant in this video.... Shuddup, Sandy! Cash? Eve our convenience stores have been not accepting cash......oh, well....again, shuddup Sandy. Don't rock the boat.
Nice to hear shamrock quay is still about, my dad used to have a boat there a few years ago
An EXCELLENT video!!
Thank you so much for the video! It was sooo relaxing to watch, well, except for the dangerous rocks, rogue waves and powerful currents!
I found these videos just yesterday and I enjoyed two of them very much! Hopefully you are still making those such beautiful journeys to share with us. thanks
Thank you. Easiest place to find more than 100 videos is to go to www.Flemingyachts.com and click the red TH-cam arrow at top right of home page.
Traveling by yacht is a whole other glorious world that many of us dream of. Perfect shows for this dream❤️🌅🍁🍂🌌
Thank you! If the rest of your videos are of this quality I have treats in store for many nights to come.
Thank you for uploading such beautiful films.
Short, long, up or down, even left or right, It matters not. Each and every one of the Fleming videos I have watched is a work of art. They take me to places I have never seen (and I have been to 33 Countries on 4 Continents,) they are delightful and inspirational, sublime, informative and simply relaxing to watch. Many thanks Tony and crew. I love your work, and your Yachts.... I really want one... Have you got a spare I can borrow??? :-)))
I know huh. It's like boaters with out borders. funn stuff.
Thank you for sharing this spectacular adventure.
Stunning, absolutely stunning scenery
What a wonderful trip and film , thank you so much it is just brilliant , off to watch part 2 , cant wait .
Wonderful video with great atmosphere! Interesting commentary & complementary music! Thank you
Excellent video as usual. Thanks for sharing.
I love your documentary series. Looking at your Fleming 55. We are inspired by these films❤️🙌🏼
The life of all the fishermen. So honest and content-able.
What an amazing video.
Beautiful and very well done 👍
Wonderful film.
I enjoy so much your different voyages...thank you!
I thoroughly enjoyed this informative film and the music I wish you well for your future adventures thank you so very much
Not bad. :) In fact it was outstanding! You must have inserted the Jaws Theme music to your classical background music! The rugged beauty of those remote locations is wonderful to be able to enjoy from the warmth of my home!
What an absolute pleasure it has been to discover your videos. Well done!
This video is absolutely amazing and so is part 2, thank you very much.
This is certainly a most enjoyable video. As I wannabe boater I'm living vicariously. I was just brought up short however when I realized that I knew the name Isle of Jura. I once had a bottle of single malt scotch from that distillery. Of the three that came in that gift box, that was the one I like the most.
Great atmospheric video.
What a brilliant and unforgettable adventure you put together and shared. Thank you with all my heart.
Thank you Mr Fleming, wonderful, safe voyaging ⛵ Liverpool, UK
Venture handled those choppy sea without a care in the world....I bet the stabilizer fins were working overtime! She's a beautiful boat Tony. It was interesting to see the Scilly Isles...I've never seen them before. This is an amazing series of films...imagine the CEO of a multi-million £ company taking the time to make films of this quality...your films are a significant body of work in themselves Tony. They are an absolute joy to watch.
