I love your witty ways and good humour, your wife seems a bit more serious so I think it must be good for her to live with your zany ways . Lovely boat , you are living the dream .
"Only dead fish follow the stream." That's excellent. English is known for stealing from other languages and we should steal this one too. The insulation in aluminium boats is good for reducing the wind noise. Thanks for this video. Regards, Rick.
Thanks Rick! It's a great expression isn't it, we actually thought it was English as we would not say it like that in Swedish. We heard it from in a song by a Swedish woman, singing in English th-cam.com/video/fWBhSPC50cY/w-d-xo.html
This American finally found her French boat with a lifting keel and aluminum hull. I used to think you guys were a little weird because you never left your boat really but now that I own my dreamboat, I’m not so keen on the desire to leave it either.
"Well its now bloody wild I'm telling ya". If I didnt know better I would swear that was an Irish girl talking as its such an Irish way to say it. I hope you checked out the real Aran jumpers which are made from unwashed wool and so have the natural oils to make them water proof. Dún Aonghasa is 3,000 years old but Brú na Bóinne or Newgrange is 5,000 years old. Legend says that hole at 25.26 comes out in Australia. Go raibh an ghaoth go brách ag do chúl. An old Irish blessing, may the wind be always at you back. Works for sailing too provided the rollers arent to big and your a bit off the wind.
WoW, thank you for sharing and for the compliment! Has anyone checked, maybe the hole according to the legend (same spelling in Swedish btw) comes out in Australia 😇 We looked at the Aran jumpers, but then Jeanette decided she wanted to knit her own and bought Donegal yarn and pattern, it turned out be a very nice Aran jumper.
Thank you for sharing your videos, your boat looks super comfy. Frenchman living in New Zealand here, I am hoping to sail to the Subantartic Islands one day. A Boreal would be a great companion for this. Out of curiosity, did you rent your bicycle on the spot or do you store them onboard somehow? Bon vent.
Could you at some point tell us a bit about the efficiency on the solar panels? Comparing the integrated ones with the ones on the stern? I understand that you might not have the material for a video on it atm. But hopefully a new season is coming. Happy sailing.
Thank you for commenting and asking, so to give you something to start with. It is our feeling that due to shading etc. the 700W we have on the doghouse and coach roof, give the same as the 400W we have on the davits.
@@bushpoint Sounds reasonable to me. The integrated ones are not supper efficient then, but they seem really well protected from wind and sea. I have enjoyed your trip through Crinan Canal (Ep 62/63) and Hike up Goatfell (Ep 64) today. Irland looks like a worthy summer destination.
I grew up sailing this coastline - Beautiful on a good day, horrible on a bad one. Can rain and blow for a week but then the sun comes out. So the Swedish crew don't drink Guinness?
I love these two..... They have chilled out so much from their early days ❤
Oh! thank you for your kind words 🥰

This is the Wife 😎 You’re so right 😍 And I think it’s a wonderful combination with me a bit more serious ❤️
Thank you guys. Your videos are really great. Like your humor and your storytelling with your camera
Thank you for your nice comment and happy to hear you like our humour 😊
Thank you for this nice video
Thank you, and thanks for watching.
Good anchor holding power
Yes, and we "stayed put", it's a good feeling when you can trust you anchor 🙏🏻
Fantastic, thanks for sharing.
Thank you!

Great to hear you found your boat 😀 Sorry to disappoint you, but we do leave the boat and live in our home in Sweden from time to time 😉
@@bushpoint yeah y’all are weird. But we like you 🫶🏽⛵️
@@michelefrost4338 so what boat did you get..... My own is a 57' Garcia..... Beautiful in so many ways.... And I live on it full time with my dogs

We have our own bikes which we store in the lazaret. Thank you for watching 😊
Do you do something special with the center board ? Up ? Down ?
Thank you very much for sharing your adventure ! ⛵
A French watcher !
If the depths allow it we normally keep it down when on anchor. Thank you so much for watching 😀

Nice vídeo, what anchor did you have?
Thank you! It's a Spade S160, 35 kg anchor.
I grew up sailing this coastline - Beautiful on a good day, horrible on a bad one. Can rain and blow for a week but then the sun comes out. So the Swedish crew don't drink Guinness?
We can only agree, horrible and great 😉 We have learnt to drink Guinness, but when hot and thirsty we prefer a lager 😀
I am sure you will have told us in a previous video so, I apologise but, could you please tell me what type and size of anchor you are using?
If we have mentioned it before it probably was a long time ago 😀 It's a Spade S160, 35 kg
Red bull set up their platform over the wormhole. Good holding in kilronan , yere cruising gods country.
Thanks for clarifying much appreciated! So he was right about something with red bull and wormhole 😃 We loved sailing here!
It is called biathlon ⛷
Thank you! And it's on tv today 😃
