Fascinating and scary at the same time! Many thanks to Dr Luke for the very detailed and informative presentation and to Charlie for the video. We're hoping that the pod that plays with rudders doesn't migrate to the south Brittany coast since we have our boat there and we have a spade rudder!
@ardent-training 26 күн бұрын
It is enough to make us think twice about heading that way! I thought for a moment your comment said spare rudder, haha. Hope we don't have to start carrying a spare anytime soon :P
@bridevalley 26 күн бұрын
I've often thought about carrying a long oar for sculling. I guess that could be used as an emergency rudder...

You mentioned "approved methods" of deterrence. What are those methods that can be used when avoidance is unsuccessful. Also has anyone tried creating noise that would interfere with the pod being able to communicate?

@ardent-training 16 күн бұрын
Thanks for the great question! This response is from Dr Luke himself! The phrase 'approved methods' was deliberately general, as what is and is not permitted depends on the wildlife protection laws in force in the specific waters, which could mean French, Portuguese, or Spanish laws apply - typically they apply to EEZs not just to territorial waters. Therefore skippers have a responsibility to ensure that any deterrence method they might plan to use is compliant with relevant laws - these vary between countries and over time, so you need to be informed otherwise you could find yourself breaking the law. In terms of acoustic deterrence yes this is being actively explored - see e.g. www.pbo.co.uk/news/sea-trials-of-new-acoustic-deterrent-device-to-keep-orcas-at-bay-80583. However, these devices are likely to be pretty expensive, potentially more expensive than changing sail plans.

Correct! But not on it's own. You would also need an RYA Day Skipper Shorebased certificate.
@trojanske_hesten 3 ай бұрын
that's interesting. Is it because Helmsman certificate doesn't cover Coastal and Inland waters but only Power? And what if a person has, for instance, only Helmsman and CEVNI test passing?
@ardent-training 3 ай бұрын
@@trojanske_hesten There is a good document which shows what combinations of course completion provide eligibility to get an ICC. If you take a look at this document, you basically need a tick in both list A and list B. And the column within those lists the tick is for details if the ICC is for Sail/Power/Coastal/Inland etc. assets.rya.org.uk/assetbank-rya-assets/action/directLinkImage?assetId=51728

Hi There, I have colour blindness but I would like to complete some practical exams, is it ok to have assistance with colour identification for bouyage and lights? Do the RYA have any specific guidance or policy you could refer me to about this matter ? Thank you.
@ardent-training 4 ай бұрын
Hi, you should be able to complete these courses without too much difficulty as buoyage and lights use a combination of colours and sequences. So even if you can't see the colour, if you can see the sequence (e.g. flashes once every 5 seconds), you will still be able to identify it. You shouldn't have a problem. You can actually even get a commercial skippers licence whilst colour blind, though you have to go take a special test with the MCA to prove you can still identify buoys.

Tom Cunliffe and Bill Aylward are working on a plotter that you can draw DR, EP, CTS, position lines etc in exactly the same way as on paper. But it's based on UKHO raster charts.... which you've just announced are disappearing. AngelNav only works on IPads and no android so far or browser based versions are currently available. I've asked them to let me help with alpha and beta testing of the android version. Can't wait to get my hands on it. I suspect they really need an injection of serious funding for more coder/testors in order to accelerate a way forward for the RYA and it's course content. But obviously Tom has had close ties with Imray (stamped on his channel guide) who could step in to supply the rasters. I think it's imperative that rasters remain available even if paper dies. It would be such a shame to lose the skills that have built our sailing acumen and levels of insightful seamanship. @TomCunliffeYachtsandYarns

I'd have liked prop misalignment with multi rudders covered, a bit more about forefoot, maybe hull shape variations (round v wine) and stern shapes and sizes. But it was a nice amble around bottoms in your boatyard. 👍

As a vessel with more bells and whistles has a higher likelihood of something not working, so a more detailed weather forecast is more likely to be wrong. Anything more detailed than tonight is going to be dark, tomorrow will be light is less likely to be as true.

21:30 Using cable ties to mouse shackles: I've encountered several white cable ties over the years which had become brittle due to UV exposure. Some of them had actually broken, but this wasn't immediately obvious because the plastic had permanently deformed to the shape it had been bent into. Given that the shackle joining anchor to chain is constantly exposed, it seems to me that using a cable tie there would be unwise. My understanding is that black cable ties are _supposedly_ more UV resistant, but...
@AlanDenham-rx9vs 4 ай бұрын
Couldn't agree more! Though I use cable ties extensively on all my other shackles, I ALWAYS use proper seizing wire on my anchor shackle. It's not just the UV, but chafe from sharp rock and sand on the seabed. 🙂

Hi, I've enjoyed watching this series. One question though, the prop at 2 minutes in is described as a folding prop. I thought this was a feathering rather than folding propeller as the blades change angle to reduce drag, rather than folding together?
@AlanDenham-rx9vs 6 ай бұрын
Good point, you are correct. I use the 2 phases together, but to be precise, a folding propeller closes its blades to reduce the drag. A feathering prop, simply turns the blades into the water flow to reduce drag. They both do the same thing, and I'm not sure there is any practical difference in choosing one over the other. Thanks for watching :)

I don't think there is one particular place to find one. It is worth checking notice boards in Marinas/Yacht clubs, posting in sailing buy/sell groups, on sailing forums, and of course the easiest option is probably checking on eBay. Make a note that they are heavy items, so often you will need to go and pick them up yourself.

@ardent-training 7 ай бұрын
It is a relatively warm pocket of air compared to the rest of the air in the system. The rest of the system might contain 'warm' air, but this is only relative to a high pressure system. And the warm pocket of air in the low, is just a bit warmer than the rest.

It all electronic now. But if the electronic goes off you are lost so l .d say do a day skipper couse this way if your electronic goes off you know how to navigate back to land by using the charts Its not hard it just 15 weeks one day a week its good fun learning you meet people like your self. It will open your eyes on what you learn about navigate. And if you like sailing you can go any where you like . Safe sailing
@stephenstead7270 8 ай бұрын
Anyone can lean how to sail a boat. It all electronic now know need for charts. Only if your electronic goes off you are lost but train how to navigate one of the best things you can learn so goto training schools to get a RYA Day skipper theory course this way you know how to get back to land if your electronic goes off.
