    What a lovely day you had there. Lake sailing is so awesome, new to me next year (2024). I have dealt with barnacles for a for 70 some years now. I should have my Atkin Sharpshooter restored "Take Me Away" back in the water in a high mountain lake close by, Baker Lake in Washington State. San Juan Islands too. Thanks so much for your wonderful demeanor and boat to match. Fair winds, Chris

    I live in BC Canada.. built a goat island skiff last year and learned to sail it over the summer. This year I look forward to more sailing and to start cruising/camping it. It's such a treat to watch your channel especially with the seasonal differences between the two places. Right now all the lakes here are frozen solid enough for a car to drive on and people are fishing through holes in the ice and skating. The temp rarely gets above 0 C. It provides a real lift to see you having fun and enjoying that park while we are locked into some short cold days. Soon our seasons will change and it'll be our turn to catch some wind in the cloth, until then you help to keep the flame alive! Really enjoy your channel, thanks for posting.

      My pleasure thanks for watching. I have seen many cabin building and outdoor videos on Canada, it's a beautiful country. My wife doesn't like the high humidity we get in Sydney in summer and the cold appeals to her but maybe not that cold!!! Do you get bears??? and Mozzies in summer. I have always loved the lakes surrounded by pine forests. Please post some videos of your camping adventures in the skiff, cheers Paul

    • @RC-bl2pm
      @RC-bl2pm 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@SailingKateLouise Everyone outside Canada asks about bears but they never worry about the real dangers...hypothermia! I love all the great dinghy channels like Roger Barnes and the Video Rambler...and yourself. I think I might make a few videos more than any other reason to contribute to the community of builders and sailors of small boats. This sort of inspiration is what propelled me to actually pull the trigger. The project was never in danger of failing from not being able to finish the project or figure out how to sail...the greatest danger was at the inception when I wasn't sure it was doable. The videos and posts I came across made me confident to try. The video that really threw me over the edge was this one:

    Hi Paul, Good to catch up with you again, and to meet Steve. You didn`t miss much by heading home on Wednesday, Thursday started out with rain and wind shift into the beach at Johnsons, so began bumping on the bottom at 5.30 - 6.00 am. Up and had breakfast at 6.30 and packed up and motored back to Violet hill in the rain, then pulled out boat and packed everything up, also in the rain. So home early to dry out selves and gear. Still a fun few days though !

    Paul thanks as usual - hope to recipricate for your winter months. Do you have winter months? if so what are your temps during your coldest months? Ours here in Delaware USA (Mid Atlantic states) are average highs in 40's and Lows in the upper 20's or 30's. for about 80 days. Rob

      Hi Rob, yes our winter's are normally fairly mild and drier about 17 highs and 9 lows thats centigrade of course, and it feels cold to us....not quite as cold as you guys. In the Blue mountains about 2hrs inland they do get snow in winter but only for a few days. Thanks for watching again, Cheers Paul

    What kind of trolling motor do you have? Love watching your videos.

      Thanks Savra, it's a Torqueedo 801, about 10 years old so this model has been superseded. I have 2x 12 volt wheelchair batteries under the bunks. Top speed about 4 knots (runs 1 hr) slowest speed 1knot (runs 10 hrs). They are pricey though, cheers Paul

    Thank you very much for your nice vidéos. A question : I suppose that you sail on a lake (you never talk about some tide), but is it a natural or artificial lake ? (forgive my english : I'm calling from France, Brittany to be precise).

      Hi Les lacs Myall sont vraiment sans marée (et d'eau douce), il y a une rivière qui va à la mer Mais elle fait 14 km de long donc très peu d'effet de marée sur les lacs peut-être 20 cm. Le lac Macqaurie a une amplitude de marée d'environ un demi-mètre... rien de tel que les marées que vous avez en France. Merci d'avoir regardé, Bravo Paul

    Love your videos. Thanks so much for the effort you put into them. I am a competent sale new to the Newcastle area. Do you know of anyone hiring dingys on lake Macquarie or Port Stephens? I have rang several sailing clubs without any luck so far. Thanks in advance

    Hi Paul.
    I've been watching your sailing trip with the raidsydney group, and I have just finished building my clc pocketship.
    Just a question: How do I get to sail with you guys. I live in Wollongong and am retired and busting to get out and sail on some of those great trips.
    Thanks.
    Terry B

      Hi Terry email me at sailingkatelouise@gmail.com. Did you go to Myall lakes a month ago...I think I saw a pocket ship there?.....maybe there are 2 in the area? If you are reading we are going to Lake Macquarie this weekend 15 boats coming...the biggest yet.Go to Raid Sydney on facebook and look for the events tab. Or if you are not on facebook email me, cheers Paul

      Hi Paul.
      Thanks for getting back to me.
      Yes, I was up at Myall Lakes, but at the beginning of March, when it was very hot. I would love to do Lake Macquarie, I've never been there in a boat before. I'll keep an eye on their website. Thanks

    Sorry if this has been asked mate, but for those not “in the know” talking to other sailers and builders out in the water. Where would you go to buy a kit in NSW?
    I’m hoping to find something on the simplistic end as I’ll need to build while working full time. Safe enough for open ocean day trips, camping up river ect
    Any advice for the kit shopping journey?

    • @SailingKateLouise
      @SailingKateLouise  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Well Scruffie marine sell my boat Stornaway 18 ,Scruffie 16 and Shimmys as kits and the company hopefully will go back into production soon. Otherwise you can get plans but not kits from Iain Oughtred, John Welsford, or keep looking on gumtree for boats that need some loving and repairs. Kits are easier though as parts can come pre-epoxied and primed in some cases. Let me know if you can one and you can join us, Cheers Paul
