    I admire your enthusiasm. I am 64 and would dearly love to fly to Los Angeles, buy a clean 30 to 35 foot boat that I can sail back to Richards Bay where it can be moored as I live in Mtunzini from where you can watch coal tankers coming from Durban, ready to enter the Harbour. As a 15 year old with a 13 and 12 year old brothers, ɓought an open dinghy like an optimist. We learned the basics of sailing and I look forward to flying to LA, buying a 30 - 35 foot GRP boat and sailing that back home to Richards Bay
    I have seen 25 foot boats that my brother could use, in my name so that his creditors cannot attach a ɓoat in someone else's name. Once my brother is not likely to get the boat attached to sell to cover debts, it can be used as a deposit for a boat in his name

    You have a lot on your plate and you are doing pretty well coping with it all. I remember A Levels, a load of hard and intense work. Don't forget your studies but make sure you have some fun also. James.

    When I was studying for my A levels, I and my 2 brothers owned a Stanley Dinghy. It was a day sailor that we sailed on a dam outside of Harare in Zimbabwe. I retired on ill-health pension about 2 decades ago, but live just south of Richards Bay. I wish to fly to Los Angeles and buy a 30 to 35 foot boat and sail it back to Richards Bay, possibly via London to see family. I don't want a huge boat that cannot be single handedly sailed.

      Yes, while in some ways 40ft is safer, if you are short handed then at least on a smaller boat you can manage anything that goes wrong!

    I just stumbled upon your boat on eBay? Are you planning an upgrade?

    • @nestorandhisboat
      @nestorandhisboat  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yes, unfortunately I’m having to sell her, because I have moved to Dorset and we have upgraded to a Sadler 26 and it doesn’t make sense to have two boats. I’d like to buy her back once I’m done with school and go on a proper adventure. I’m slightly hoping she doesn’t sell in which case she will come on to the hard for the next year and a half and then I can go cruising on my gap year 😀😀

    • @nestorandhisboat
      @nestorandhisboat  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      I will be upgrading eventually but not yet!

    Being Latter-day Saint, I don't drink coffee myself. I wonder what the outcry would be if I paid for coffee for you.

    2 asks in 1 video?? Bit much don't you think?

    • @nestorandhisboat
      @nestorandhisboat  ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I don’t think there are ads on my videos so I would figure asks are better than ads 😃😃 in fairness I had forgotten that I had asked people to subscribe at the end so maybe I wouldn’t have put in the buymeacoffee part if I had known that… thanks for advice

      You showed the same thing 2 times, once in the middle and again at the end! I did subscribe and even did a thumbs up. It is the norm to see if you get enough here to even stay on you tube before asking for money! @@nestorandhisboat

      I enjoy your videos and quite frank conversation about "the numbers" required to get paid by tube-U. Glad you randomly appeared in my feeds. 😅😂😂😊❤
