Sailing from Scotland to Ireland: Part 1 | Drake Paragon Sailing

*VIDEOS ALWAYS COMMERCIAL FREE ON PATREON* The time has come to say goodbye to a good friend and leave Scotland. We're pushing off for a 215 nautical mile sail to Ireland in blustery (!!!) conditions. Time to raise anchor. It's noisy. It's bumpy. But we've got something that makes the whole process much easier.

Wire stripping trick ( especially in tight spots ) just use a bic lighter for a second on end of wire. Insulation will melt / retract just enough to crimp on connector.. no knife, no possible wire deterioration, fast and easy.. my only go-to now in all situations, tight spots or not. Try it you will never go back.

Hi Steve!!!

[@UUBrahman]

Nice to see a skipper who loves his boat.

A great passage indeed. It was rough though, and I can understand how tiring it was. And a 9 hour watch? Nicely done Monique.

keep her lit drake

[@igorprochazka6199]

Great job

[@Cptnbond]

Another great episode ❤

haha, at 20:19 I was thinking the same thing as Mo, but for different reasons. I was looking at the roller furled genoa and thinking how much better it would look if it were a purpose-designed hank-on jib with a longer luff, smaller foot, and high clew.

you seem to have changed the video slightly I think it works beautifully great video

[@gregfawcett5152]

Broad reach is my favorite point of sail...

[@gerrantangye9697]

Beautiful

Drake,
For future reference, those connectors are colour-coded. Red is for smaller wires like the one you were dealing with.

[@MOTORVESSELFREEDOM]

Talk about sometime what you do for jobs……

Drake, when is the next boat maintenance? Bottom scrub perhaps?

[@drakeParagon]

I think we'll make a video about the completion of our Hydrovane wind vane installation. A continuation of this series:
