Both of you are brilliant. Love your narration the filming and music. I have frequently sailed all the areas you sail in and I am ashamed to say you put me to shame with your knowledge. Thank you. Look forward to watching all your recordings.
Thanks for watching! Hope you enjoy the rest of them. For us, sailing is the means to explore and to learn about history and culture. Great that you like it!
This is perhaps the most informative of the sailing channels (and very humorous!). I love the passage planning and travel insight. I have greatly enjoyed watching your sail around Scotland and beyond. Would love you to explain your passage making technique on graph paper. A method I have not used before.
Thanks for watching and for your uplifting comment! We have arrived in our winter berth and are settling in. Video editing is in a short pause but will resume shortly. We‘ve had quite a few comments about the passage planning tool and we plan to produce a special episode about this. Stay tuned…
Thank you guys! After a short pause of the editor, we are working on the next one. It is so much harder without proper sound… Hope this will be the last one…
Hello Polaris crew ! We (Pollen, a French 38 feet sailing boat) were planning to visit Orkneys, Shetlands and Norway. We gonna start our trip soon and hope to see you during this summertime. Thant you for the SENA intercom idea, it's just great and facilitates communication in double handed sailing.
Hello Pierre, that would be wonderful! Our plan is to cross to Norway in early May and then go north in a good pace. Our MMSI is 269119610 and we generally, we have our AIS on when we sail. So you can see where we are. Best regards and safe travels! Daniel
@@sailingpolaris Thanks a lot Daniel, our AIS n# 227692380 is running when we are sailing. There were two deep Low in Britany and we are waiting for better forecasts to cross the channel (unfortunately a High pressure is aspected now in the Irish sea with no wind at all ... but as you know forecasts are what they are!). I think you gonna be in Norway sooner than us but we'll try our best to join you somewhere. Are your planning to go to Svalbard this year?
@@sailingpolaris Hello Daniel, we also plan to cross to Norway asap but not before June we had to come from France and we juste arrived in Scotland at that time! Lucky you to be already in Norway. take pleasure! Pierre
@pierremoissonnier7659 we are just passing the oil rigs in the North Sea on our way to Bergen. Well done on your passage from France and enjoy Bonnie Scotland 🏴
@@sailingpolaris I'm following you bu marinetraffic. Nice trip! and, depending you own plan, seeing you when you'll come back from north? We also have a "youtube channel" : www.youtube.com/@pollenlamerestronde711
Brilliant as normal thank you !
You nailed it again ❤ 🙏🏼
What a journey. I love it. The weather looks incredible.
It was just perfect then. One of our best days sailing in the season…
Thanks you for showcasing Yesnaby which I think of as the most beautiful part of Orkney mainland. If you visit again, Shapinsay is worth a look at.

Another great vlog! you managed to rescue the sound nicely. Looking forward to the next one where we have also visited although that was only on land😃
Thanks for watching. We‘ll compare notes when it‘s out… 😎
Lovely episode and well done for dealing with the unfortunate microphone meltdown so well. Lovely narration 😊❤

Thank you for taking us along to the beautiful landscapes and some interesting insights of the Orkney Islands
