Brilliant. Often the smaller the boat the more fun or at least less stress. When I was in High school in the Middle East my neighbor and I found an old abandoned laser hull. It had no sails or a mast nor a rudder. We stuck my old windsurfing rig on it and found an oar for the rudder. We spend hours messing around on it. The achievement we got from adding bits a pieces to make it work was fantastic. We actually put the same sail on the back of my dad's 24 ft catamaran to make it a ketch 🙂
Hi Mike, it does seem we have a disproportionate amount of fun with small boats! No doubt your friend and you felt more satisfaction from your tinkering than you would have if you had found a ready-to-go Laser. :-) A ketch catamaran is a very cool idea, I guess it could have acted as a riding sail at anchor too... Very best regards, Chris (Plus Rossella & Emma) 🙂
Hi Garreth! There are lots of gorgeous anchorages around there and the vast majority of them get very quiet at night, even when they are jam-packed during the day. Most people there head back into marinas so you often get lots of peace & quiet an night. Very best regards, Chris, Rossella & Emma 😊
Any plans on building another one of these? I've been excited about building one since I saw your video about it a couple years ago. It's a little down my list of things to build, but hopefully this year or next!
I have a nice little wooden dinghy I like to sail in front of my club. Good on you for giving us this nice video in the middle of our winter! Thank you! Oh yeah who ever disliked this video is just jealous of you. just saying
Hi Mark, thank you for prompting me to learn something new. In Italy people refer to this noise as being made by as "grilli" which translates as "grasshoppers", despite these sound actually being made by an insect called a "cicala" or "cavaletta", which is a cicada and is in fact very different. Every day is a school day! Chris 👍
This is a different video from that same period where we filmed vlogs from the boat (this vid is all about the dinghy). Also, we have a new found appreciation for how much of a privilege it was to live so freely back then... Cheers, Chris 👍
Hi Paul, we'd be happy to have you and your family on board with us as friends! Let's hope travel gets easier again soon... Very best regards, Chris, Rossella & Emma 😊

That anchorage looks so nice and relaxing

Yes I would love to build another boat as soon as I can find the time. It was one of the most satisfying things I've ever done! Cheers, Chris 👍

@Sailing Britaly *_ Are you 'Cheating' us.... being with the channel for so long but remember this episode from way back. Anyway, "Mums the Word" _*

Dropped it into the sea ??
A gift to Poseidon
You will get more wind next time! Lovely sailing dinghy. ⛵
The dinghy has a new life in Sardinia now - I'll have to build another when I find the time! Cheers, Chris 👍
Beautiful site 👍, hope to visit Europe one day. If you're interested I'll pay you for a day trip or few hours.
Hi Paul, we'd be happy to have you and your family on board with us as friends! Let's hope travel gets easier again soon... Very best regards, Chris, Rossella & Emma 😊
