Your such a modest sailer you old sod! Saying people are better sailors than you! Peace from a contessa 26, watching this from my mooring in Chichester. Peace as always brother!
Weather the same like UK and Holland? You and the T shirt and the adventure wauw! Have fun and enjoy your cub of koffie in the morning sun or rain! Schiermonnikoog.
Glad to see you are getting good service from that wind generator Berry. So you traveled half way around the globe to check out the weather and found it was just like England's eh? All is good, carry on.
First time watching. TH-cam recommended the video because I follow a few other sailing channels and I thought, "eh, another sailing channel" but 5 minutes in I was hooked and subscribed!
What a great surprise; did not expect you for another week or two! What a great friend that Mike is, glad he keeps an eye out for you and the anchor! If ever I were in trouble on the sea; I would want the two of you to come a runnin'!
I hope the weather does not hold you up too long, Barry. Thanx for your video clips and your inspiration. Don't forget I will shout you a pint or two or three... when you come visiting New Zealand.
Mother nature must see you coming and go. "Here comes Barry. Must make things more exciting!". Hehe. Hope you get better weather for your passage to New Zealand.
Hi Barry, Good to see you're doing ok. Kind of good and bad with the weather. Hope you can find a good weather window for your next long passage! Good to see Mike with you again :) Happy wind my friend!
To be a follower of ‘Ol’ Seadog’ is such an adventure. To lean back on the couch is one thing. But the music!? Man!! Such an adventure it self. Love the suitable music. Where did you found it? Always spot on. Makes it professional. Roll in! Fair Winds & Hail the Sails. 🙏
Hi barry, I see youve got an empty glass there! 🤣 I just wanted to say thank you so much for stopping by Tonga. I hope you made it to New Zèaland safely. Best wishes!!
As I journey through You Tube I always find myself coming back to watch your latest. I am leaving to sail south in about three weeks to SoCAL the So America. Hope to see you out there in Polynesia some day.
Wow! I just looked at the weather forecast for Fakarava and, temperature aside, it looks very much like the weather here in Vancouver BC! Rain, rain, go away, come again some other day..week/month/year 😂
I’m in Southern Ohio in the states and agree wholeheartedly! Snow in early November really gets me wanting my kids to get older so I can take off on a sailboat.
Sorry, I´m too mingy to become a patreon. But I must say that you are definatly the best youtuber to follow. Not overdramatic or egocentric, and not boringly educational.. Nor are you plagued by the performance anxiety that´s surrounding most people.. You are just humble Barry, documenting life as it is, while you are cruising along. And that is just brilliant! Wish you the very best and hope you´ll get your hands on a dark lager soon - Cheers!
5:40 Mike has a great boat, I think it is a Robert Perry designed Tayanya 37, I believe they are still making them and over 600 have been made. They sail very well,
I have been following your adventure for a short while. First video I watched was when you crossed the equator. I enjoy each video. You are living my dream.
Another good show bud. I have finally bitten hard onto the hook that you guys have dangled in-front of me. Yes I have bought a boat. A small Tomahawk 25 fin keel so I will be on the water in January.
Another very well done piece of good entertainment. Barry i were waiting for every "fresh" video from you and i got one more masterpiece to watch. Thanks mate
I guess it is all relative, I sail with a Macgregor 27 off the coast of Canada in the North Atlantic 30 knot winds are just a "fast sail" day. At 40, that is only for the good guys to go out for a cruise, at 50 everyone decides to stay moored or at dock, but 55 plus is serious enough to secure everything. But then again, boats get lost, usually in open sea late season with guys leaving late for the south.
That is one beautiful sail on Mikes boat, do you know where he bought it ? Its really nice, you were wondering why it goes so fast, I think its because its higher up there where you get more wind..
Barry, I'm enjoying your videos a lot. Just spend 2 weeks and a half from the 1st up to the latest video and I envy you most of the time. It really gives you a realistic view of an old seadog ;-) Keep them videos coming!
I don't know about you Bazza....Troubles & Tribulations seems to be a big part of your adventures...Even Shaddy is looking a tad tired with rust stains and a marine mat on her hull... But, I still volunteer myself as ballast to keep her steady in a squall. Luv it all mate....Cheers
What design is the boat Breakaway? Looks like a nice little boat, the type I'd like to own. Simple, especially the tiller steering, the less through hull fixtures the better
I have been watching for a long time. I am proud of you I sail a 36 ft foot boat I am older 63 done working in 6 months. You are inspiring do you mind telling me your age .... Thanks Randy
At 9:24 looks like there was more that cardboard and paper in that fire! I can see at least one large plastic bottle in the mix. I suppose it mixes with all the other ash and turns in to paper and cardboard if you wait long enough. ;)
Great video as always, Barry. Nice to see your friends, Breakaway. Particularly interested to see how they’re set up for cruising. I sail the same design, a Miura, here in Cape Town. A tough 31 footer. Looking forward to your next installment.
Forgive my presumption but if I tied a boat down I would tie it down with the keel facing upwards. The bow normally makes the boat hull on a plane in tre water- or at least try to, so upside down the air flow will force it onto the deck not to fly!It
I thought that in some areas you were recently, you reported that theft of the dinghy motors from the sailing vessels was a very real problem. I know that in the last few weeks, Holly Martin and her mother have been shopping - in Panama - for necessary items including a Go Pro camera stolen from her boat. I know sailing is supposed to be a better way of life, but not if you have to replace expensive outboard. What is the world coming to? I know in Zululand, they are most likely to steal the dinghy plus the motor from yachts, but that is a Robin (pun intended ) Hood idea - take from the affluent and redistribute to the poor - or greedy!
Great following you on your trip , I have a trailer sailer on lake Rotoiti Rotorua NZ , I ve often thought it would be good to do a long trip , I’ve traveled a lot and been on a few boats in the solomons , good luck
So here's what you do: attach a very large kite tail to one end of Baby Shaddy and attach a line from a seat or someplace in the middle and secure the other end to the sailboat. Big kite.
Things you talk about and the way you are I find interesting. Good channel on youtube. Love it. Hey that boat which was damaged. You went over to see it because it was nice. Said it was brand new. If that’d been me I would have fibreglassed the hole and had that. At worst towed it behind your boat.
No.. you're supposed to have already planned for such a possibility, and have your sails rigged so they're ready for immediate use as a backup. The anchors are Plan C, not Plan B. (And yes, they too are supposed to be set up ready for instant deployment, in case they're needed.)
Ok.. I have a little more info now.. seems Sailing Zatara were there just four days after it happened. th-cam.com/video/rb9iGMmFN0U/w-d-xo.html Their primary mistake was exiting the pass in the dark, which frankly, is bloody stupid of them. To one side of the pass entrance were several diving buoys, which were marked on the chart, so they really ought to have been aware of them. Apparently the line from a buoy got tangled around the prop shaft, at which point they then tried to sail out. In this case, yes, as soon as they realised they had a line wrapped around the shaft, they should have gone straight to Plan C and dropped the anchor before cutting the boat free. Next thing to be damaged (apparently by the line?) was their rudder.. which makes yet another reason I think spade rudders don't belong on cruising boats. It beats me why so few people fit line-cutters to their prop shafts.. it's not like they're hard to come by. And on something like a brand-new Dufour (which this was) it really ought to be standard equipment.
I watch a lot of the sailing channels and they seem to be getting a lot more violent weather systems. I looked up hurricanes in 2000 there were 8 in 2018/2019 there were 31 hurricanes and tropical storms.
Stop changing numbers to try and make a point. 2000 - 8 hurricanes/15 total named storms. 2018 - 8 hurricanes/15 total storms. 2019 - 4 hurricanes/17 total named storms so far. Funny when you look at actual facts and compare apples to apples the numbers are nearly identical.
@@charlieford5523 Thing is tho you switched terms. 2000 you only counted hurricanes. 2018/2019 you included all named storms. That's not an issue of a different source. That's either ignorance or deliberately manipulating data. On a personal note, sorry, I don't put my legal full name out on every tom/dick and harry internet site. That's really not a smart idea...
I would like to change the above post I watch a lot of sailing videos and there seems to be a lot more violent weather systems.OK this is for the not pickers.
@@charlieford5523 lol, still not a fan of facts I see. Ah well, whatever floats your boat I suppose. :) You do know anecdotal data is pure garbage right?
Home from home Barry. Yachts sunk in Plymouth and two on the Devon banks at Cargreen, up the Tamar over the past 3 weeks! Don't think there's much hope for the grounded ones as no real high water until at least March. Enjoy yourself.
Hi Barry, nice add on with the list of music you’ve used, very interested where you get your music from ? I am always on look out for music I can use with my videos I make, We both love yours always watching and enjoying from Neath s Wales UK
Don't worry about how fast Mike is. It was your "old man sailing" that got me hooked. 90% more work for 10 or 15% more speed isn't my idea of fun.
Addicted to your videos, thanks so much Barry 👏👏
Always appreciate your channel Barry, not boastful or trying to show a glamorous adventure. Good luck to you and sail carefully!
Your such a modest sailer you old sod! Saying people are better sailors than you! Peace from a contessa 26, watching this from my mooring in Chichester. Peace as always brother!
Thankyou for sharing your life with us!!!
Weather the same like UK and Holland?

Crazy I have mad respect for an old sea dog like you, your life makes a 21 year old envious
I always put my dinghy upside down over the forehatch in bad weather. That way I can leave the hatch open for ventilation without the rain getting in.
First time watching. TH-cam recommended the video because I follow a few other sailing channels and I thought, "eh, another sailing channel" but 5 minutes in I was hooked and subscribed!
Yeah me too. I miss Zatara.
Hi, we can see you have trust in your boat and your ability. Enjoy your time on worlds oceans. 🍻🍀
i wish i could get a boat like that before anyone messes with it! i would make it my new home!
Thank you Barry! Was about to eat lunch while watching impeachment hearings and up popped your video.Your channel is much better for digestion!😃

Hopefully better weather very soon 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞 thanks for sharing 👍🇦🇺🚜

Man that wrecked boat was beautiful. How sad.
Yes, that was enough to make me sick..
Always enjoy each installment of your journey. Too bad about the weather. Not a bad place to sit-out the rain and wind. Safe sailing.
Cool video Barry
Mother nature must see you coming and go. "Here comes Barry. Must make things more exciting!". Hehe. Hope you get better weather for your passage to New Zealand.

Wow beautiful footage in crystal clear water with the black tip reef sharks. Awesome Barry! Great video Barry - what a blow!
Been there, got the T shirt, but still enjoy your capers. Safe sailing !
Eclipse of the Onion - love it!
Thank you for sharing your adventures with us Barry. I am looking forward to your next video. Best of luck and stay safe.
You'll like this!
Take care be safe out there old man we don't wanna lose you
Hi barry, I see youve got an empty glass there! 🤣 I just wanted to say thank you so much for stopping by Tonga. I hope you made it to New Zèaland safely. Best wishes!!
the tattoo is looking very cool!
6:52 'There's Moggy with the wife following" that made me laugh :-)
yeah, and Barry's Dr Who impersonation: "I'll explain later"...
I love your videos seadog cheers from Texas
Nice one Barry. Sail Safe Ant, Cid & the Pooch crew.
Its not like bloody England, Barry.
You are not freezing your balls off🥺
Fair winds and enjoy the beer ☺️

I’m in Southern Ohio in the states and agree wholeheartedly! Snow in early November really gets me wanting my kids to get older so I can take off on a sailboat.
Indeed I'll take Positive Climate Change over Negative [ Pishing rain / Baltic Freezing Cold Mornings any given day ..
I look forward to your videos and you never disappoint. Safe sailing.
That furler is worth money and all that marine plywood and teak.
Aarrrrrrrrrrrrtttty matey hell of a sailor
Great videos! I sure enjoy watching.
Pure adventure.

You gotta wash the cans on running water, on a bucket you only pass venom around.

Hey! Life is a beach, Aye! Looks like your being as careful as ya can. Saw the episode when ya go the tat looks good.

Do you just have one bucket for everything! 🤣
I was thinking that his water bucket looked remarkably similar to his sh*t bucket.
-you want some hiny-ken?
- no thanks!
What design is the boat Breakaway? Looks like a nice little boat, the type I'd like to own. Simple, especially the tiller steering, the less through hull fixtures the better
My bones make noises in the morning too , I try to take fish oil for lubrication but I guess you have all the fish oil you want living off a boat .
I have been watching for a long time. I am proud of you I sail a 36 ft foot boat I am older 63 done working in 6 months. You are inspiring do you mind telling me your age .... Thanks Randy
Sailing S/V Teak Key Randy Fryling I think he said he was 58 when he started so that was 3 yrs ago so he s gotta be 60 or 61
Also, love your channel, be safe out there!
Great underwater video!
I respect you
Hang in there you old far!
Not far now to nz looking foward to meeting

In remote places, there is no recycling. Bad as it sounds, in such cases, burning plastic is a better option than dumping it.
@@Garryck-1 yah, I know.. :(
Great video as always, Barry. Nice to see your friends, Breakaway. Particularly interested to see how they’re set up for cruising. I sail the same design, a Miura, here in Cape Town. A tough 31 footer. Looking forward to your next installment.
I really enjoy your videos 😎😊
To Barry and viewers see more of the wreck when it happend on Sailing Zatara episode 85. Keep it up barry!
Worth watching...boat was only 6 months old.
th-cam.com/video/rb9iGMmFN0U/w-d-xo.html
I thought the boat looked familiar.
So sad.
I much much prefer the salty old dog. Call me narrow minded but these huge, expensive cats don’t do it for me, kind of defeats the purpose.
Forgive my presumption but if I tied a boat down I would tie it down with the keel facing upwards. The bow normally makes the boat hull on a plane in tre water- or at least try to, so upside down the air flow will force it onto the deck not to fly!It
Generally that is best. But you have to remove engine and fuel tanks. They just went a short hop.
You do you. If you wanna mess with removing the engine and fuel everytime you go right ahead.

Sand hell they r kickin in
Have you had your boat bottom scraped yet?
The next people to visit that shipwrecked yacht after Barry and Easy Mike, "Look someone even took the rigging" ;)
Very sad to see a yacht on the rocks. Especially a new one. Do you know the story behind it? About the owners and where they were from?
It´s like in England, but 10°C warmer!
Things you talk about and the way you are I find interesting. Good channel on youtube. Love it.
Hey that boat which was damaged. You went over to see it because it was nice. Said it was brand new. If that’d been me I would have fibreglassed the hole and had that. At worst towed it behind your boat.
And do what with it? Looks like it needs a couple hundred thousand in work and parts, and there’s no where to tow it lol
I have more change to see the eclips on this onion >>>> hahaha that just made me laugh so hard ...really enjoy your video!
Great video be safe.what’s your bread recipe ??
