- Featuring some rather nice drone footage (the only drone footage of the series) this episode is a lovely sight seeing tour of Sunderland's beauty (yes, Sunderland!) as well as Berwick on tweed's too.
Plans change once again while we're on the water, we run aground (a little) and block our engine water intake with weed (sigh)
Forgot to mention those strangers on the pier at Roker were us :)
The right way to mark pots to have a chance of seeing them. We see that design off the Waterford coast. Its great
Fantastic place Berwick upon Tweed. I went to school there for a while when I was 6 years old & I had a holiday home just 200 yds from where you berthed for 14 years. Spent many holidays there. Great to see that you walked over the old bridge. My mother was a child when the new bridge was opened & had to wave as it was opened.I used to watch the Flying Scotchman leave the station on its way to Edinburgh -steam everywhere, wheel sometimes spinning on the track
I visited Sunderland a few times when I was crew of HMS OCEAN. I have some good memories.
Ahh, of course. That would make sense.
Loved the ending cuzz..cracked me up..yr a handy chap now aren't you🤣🤣
Greetings from Ireland. One westerly to another.
Thank you very much. We get to Northern Ireland soon, but sadly the covid thing stopped us going to the southern side of the border.
You seemed a little low before Grimsby but after a few days in Hartlepool, you seemed to really get into your stride 👍 Thanks for sharing your adventures with us.
Thanks for letting us know you're enjoying the adventure. There were certainly times of exhaustion on the journey. But Hartlepool was definitely a well needed break.
Congratulations on entering Berwick in the dark. It’s a winding nightmare at the best of time.
It was a nightmare! Two of the lateral nav lights were unlit!
We hit ground at one point.
Great stuff cuzz...that arial shot coming into the harbour at Sunderland..awesome 😍
You need to get a drone to follow your RC cars mate. Double awesome
A Mackem eh ? I’m a Geordie from sunny South Shields 😊💪🏻. Lovely to see some very familiar landmarks .
Nah, I'm not a Mackem by birth, just as an interloper for 12 years. But South shields is lovely! I thought about calling in there just to enjoy more beach time (and the Sand Dancer)
Your editing is getting much better guys. Are you going to head south after the UK and cross the Atlantic?
Thanks. That comment made me smile.
Will we do the Atlantic.... hmmmmmm, I'd love too.
The Rain song not quite a number 1 but keep trying. You were lucky just to get in with the weed issue,great stuff keep smiling. 😃
awww shame - I was going to record it and make a RunDMC v Berwick version.
Hi SFS. Nice videos. May I ask you some piece of advice?
I will be sailing an Island Packet 40 from Holland to the Med this summer. And I plan to go around Britain from Lowestoft to Inverness, then Caledonian Canal and South thru Scotland Ireland and Biscayne.
Could you tell me which ports you stopped on your way up the East Coast?
My boat has a draft of 1.4 meter.
Thank you very much
Hi SFS, love your videos . What camera are you using ? Thanks Chris
Hi Chris, thanks so much. We are using a pair of "Dragon touch vision lite 4" which cost £36 each!
