In winter sail South

I wonder if the annual cost for maintenance/repairs is at the same level of 55kEUR every year or if it has come down over time?

how far and how fast does the boat go?

Watch the guys eyes at 10:29-10:31. Something is not right with this guy.

so what is the final price? 70k USD ?

I'm not sure if you considered or did this, but is your battery to battery charger capable of reverse charging? If so what brand did you go with? I saw another battery overhaul video that used a Sterling BB1240 but that puppy is $450! The idea being, and what I want to do, is charge the starter battery off of the alternator, which in turn can go through the B2B charger to charge the house Lithiums, but also have reverse charging automatically kick in when I am parked on shore power and keep the starter battery topped off - especially over longer periods of non-use. Does your system handle this and could you (or anyone) recommend cheaper options for the B2B that aren't in the Sterling price range? Great video! Thank you!

she is clearly a 'Sandy' one.

Well done thankyou

Great and informative video! Question, I currently have all lead acid with 2 banks (start & house). How would my ACR system integrate with a LifePO (house) / lead acid start system?

Le "Redoutable" the one to be feared .

Awesome !! Serious adventure . Wow

The battle between blow boats and smudge pots never ends. Anchorage’s during the airshow is always a cluster fuck.

regarding the head?? doesnt it still stink?

Why didnt you get the Laveo dry flush?

An inspiring video! Thank you for sharing your experience.

hey what is the yellow Antiguan and American flag for when you arrived?

How does the engine get air in such a tightly sealed compartment?

So is soo French 😂

Thank you very much, my brother, for this distinguished work that you did and introduced me to. I benefited a lot from you. You are a good man.❤❤❤

What a douchey executive effort. “Sail” boat has two helms and a flipping microwave.

“The strawberries are just a vehicle for the cream” 😂. Not sure how I missed this one. Now I want to get back on the water!

Regarding sanitation hoses once they start to clog/stink just replace them - I never ever clean them, …. I always completely remove and replace them with new sanitation hose, generally every two-three years. Accept this truth, and your life improves immediately 😁👍🏻

As much as I prefer a monohull, did they not think about getting a catamaran?

Awesome video, thank you!

Actually having finally Caught up with your videos, I think it is time for me to move on, and unsubscribe as you appear to have totally lost the plot with a ridiculous wooden boat with an electric drive for ffs, and likely a polar seal II being an even more bloody ridiculous bloody Catamaran, the Vast Majority of which totally Suck at doing what Sailboats are supposed to do, and that is Sail Well. It is a rare Catamaran that Can Sail into the Wind, and most suck so badly at Downwind Sailing, that even Igor Stropnik has appealed for Catamaran Builders to provide instructions on how to Sail the damned things properly Downwind. So Wishing you the Best of Luck with your Advertising Channel that used to be about Sailing, and as the Dolphins Sang in The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy - Goodbye, and thanks for all the fish. Unsubscribed. ⛵️

So sailing is like covid for your partnership. Well then i am ready , my wife and I had zero arguments during covid, was a very peaceful time 😊😊😊

That's exactly what they say about climbing K2, most deaths are on the descent. That is not an old boat so how come so many things break?

Beautiful boat, we get that you had to sand, and this vid was really wordy…

Update. Delighted to Confirm that Unsibscribing from the Cannel, having a cup of tea time gap, then Subscribing to the Channel again, has restored everything to working as intended again, and including on the Telivision KZbin App. Phew ! t has also worked for the Two Brothers Sailing Channel - two Welsh lads doing a Circumnavigation in a Rival - I really lusted after a Rival in the 1970's but could never afford one - and it is nice to see they have Made it into the Pacific, but do Worry about attempting Circumnavigations these days, as I have ditchedcthe idea of Doing a Circumnavigation, after Dad dragged me into his ambition, as to me, you must never be forced into having to leave Safety because of Scedules, and too many seem to be forced to move on due to Bureaucratic heavy consequences of Heavy Fines, and even Boat Confiscations, because an irresponsible Bureau rat forces you to leave in an Appalling looming Weather Window due to you being out of isa Days. Sailing with Thomas Channel for example, has had his Sails Shredded and other issues resulting from precisely this problem. So for me ? Bye Bye Circumnavigation Ambition, and Replaced with Specific Destination Targets if Circumstances allow, such as Visiting Saudi Arabia at some point, to look at their amazing achievement of Successfully Farming the Desert thanks to Water Desalination and DripAgriculture, such that they now export very high quality Fruit and vegetables, which is such a great example for other Desert areas close to Coastlines to Copy. The Sahara alone, believe it or not, could probably feed the World Nine Times over, due to Six Harvests a Year, and the Waste Biomass could produce via Plasma Gasification with Syngas Production, all of the Ultra Clean Liquid and Gas Fuels the Region would need, at extremely low Cost, which they could recover by selling the Surplus Fuels into the World Market, or fuel Gas Turbine Generators to have Local Energy and CO2 Soutcescto help overcome the Serious Shortage of CO2 Content in the Atmosphere, and right where Plants can make best use of it. By the way, while on the topic of the Environment, The Micro Plastics Fraud is based on Fake Science Lies. Plastics Break Down in UV Light in about 12 months in the .Ocean, resulting in Esters and Water - Confirmed in the Stinky Water Blisters called Osmosis in Boat Hulls, which is the Resin in the laminates breaking Down. Protected from UV, such as External and internal Barrier Coating, or Burying Plastics underground, the maximum time before becoming Esters and Water, is 80 years. All of this was intensely Researched back when we still had Real Scientists, startingbin the 1960's, when we were warned that every Beach on the Planet would be 30 feet Deep in Plastic Within Ten Years, So when the beaches were not say 6 feet deep in Plastic after two years, Studiescattemptedvto find out just where all ofvthe Plastics were going to ? The results came in, and were included in the Civil and Xtructural Engineering Course I was on in College in the 1970's and franklybthere is absolutely no excuse For Fake Scientists today, to be Spouting Unscientific Crap like microplastics to create Fictional Problems. Islands of Plastic Waste Floating Forever in the Pacific ? ffs Grow Up People, and start using your Brain Cells. Speaking with my Amateur Svientist hat on, though mostly a multi disciplined Engineer. I turned to Sciencecto Write a .paper for the UK Parliament Science and Technology Committee, which at the time, was under attack with an attempted Ocean Acidification Fraud to extract as much Public Money as possible from them. I was so Outraged by their Absolute Bollox for arguments, I set out, with Computer, Internet Connection, and the use of the Scientific Method of Empiricism, to Systematically Debunk ever single so called Fact they presented with accurate Sources, and Video evidence, Which confirmed that if the Fraudsters were right, oral Reefs would already be a BarrennLifeless Wilderness of Dead Corals, and instead the Gyperlinked Videoscshowed that all ofvthem were Teening with Marine Life and Healthy Corals. That Study took me about 10 evenings of my own time to create, and it impressed the Committee enough for the Chairman to Ask For and Get , my permission to Publish it, and I don't think Ocean Acidification has been even mentioned in Parliament Since. However information I came across while creating that Study, is pointing to us actually having a pretty Serious, and unexpected problem, which the Environment Minister Ed Milliband, or his Department, is attempting to Conceal, as a friend who grasps the Scale of the Shortage of CO2 Content problem, Posted a Graph confirming the Deckining CO2 Content since the Time of the Dinosaurs for Ed to see on X and that Accurate Graph got Deleted ! Sorry, but I don't know how to make this comfortable to Swallow, but it is whatbit is. The already Serious Shortage of CO2 Content in the Atmosphere, caused by far too much CO2 being locked away out of the Reach of Life and Biodiversity, and amounting to about 140 times more than is in the Atmosphere, IF We Continue pursuing this Net Zero insanity, is very likely to Turn What isca Serious Shortage, into a Critical One, and the existing Shortage has most Plants, other than Desert Varieties attempting to Compensate by increasing their use of water, this is leaving the Plants weakened and vulnerable to insect attacks and Plant Diseases. All of this is very easy to onfirm by RealmScientists with accurate Data. This is as long as it needs to be, but in addition, very interesting indications are coming from Mars Atmosphere Research Conclusions, which point to having a Healthy Surplus of CO2 Content, combined with plenty of Plant Photosynthesis seems to actively work preventing a Runaway Greenhouse Effect? This has a very strange Confirmation that itbis True. Where and when did exactly those Circumstances exist ? On Our Planet at the Time of the Dinosaurs, and there certainly wasn't any Runaway Greenhouse Effect THEN Was There ? Talk about us somehow Barking up an entire Forest of Wrong Trees concerning the Environment, Climate, and CO2, and that's putting it mildly ! 😡 Angry ? You Bet I am Angry, and all ofvyou should be Angry Too. 🤔🌟🌟🌟⛵️❤️

And this cost 4000$😂

PS. I will Unsubscribe, then Subscribe again to see if that fixes your posted videos totally Disappearing. Something needs to be done about Google their damnedvadvertising breaks are hitting epic lengths of Crap Adverts, which is badly impcting your Channel Sponsors promotions. I think that isn't helping the pretty Dramatic Collapse in Sailing Channel Viewers numbers. Advertising Revenue must have fallen off a Clif, as even Sail Life Channel has been Demonetised, just as they bought a Train Wreck ofva Hurricane Damaged Catamaran to do up. I Tried to warn them to Back Out of the Purchase, but I hope I'm wrong, but I don't see that Catamaran ever leaving the Boatyard, as things are already at least Seven Times Worsecthan 2008. 🤔 Thank God I bought a load of Silver Bullion Back when it was really really Cheap. Best bit of insurance I ever bought. Phew! ❤

Hi Guys. Sort of trying to catch up, as your Channel,posts had totally disappeared while I was in Hospital, pretty much doing that Dying Stuff due to a really Vicious Respiratory Bacteria causing Respiratory Failure, Kidney Failure, Pneumonia, all of which led to a Heart Attack, which thankfully due to me doing Very Deep Breathing Meditation Technique, when it arrived was a Mild Heart Attack. But Home now, and improving in Leaps and Bounds, so things look up. 👍 Hard to tell how you are both doing really, I think you were Contemplating building a Catamaran ? Hopefully you have given that a miss ? as the Global Economy is rapidly Cratering, and frankly, due to the annual costs with Multihulls I think they may end up being a very rare sight in the Cruising areas very soon now, and even keeping a Monohull going could be pretty hard going for a few yearscas well, as De Dollarisation Kicks in. Oddly the Coming Crash, should mean that I may even be able to afford a Brand New Sailboat - my first New One - Only hitch is it isn't available with a Shallow enough Draft for what I need, so it looks like I will have to have a Custom Lead Wing Keel built, and replace what the 44 foot Sailboat Comes with later. Being Lead, it may manage to have close to a 4 foot Draft - the Catalina 445 is available with an iron Keel 5 foot Draft, so the chances look pretty good, and everything else I need, Saloon Layout Changes, etc should be OK, and it looks like even an 80 hp Yanmar Diesel can replace the standard 57 hp, as the 80 hp can have the much better ZF Saildrive. I have a great Broker Agent working his Butt Off trying to get my spec everything, at a massive Discount from the Factory, as the builder is switching to prioritise Cruising for its product line, and my Cruising Oriented Needs are being Taken very Seriously by the Buildervas well, They can also get my Custom Test Sails done for me, and fitvthem at the Factory, so years of my Specifications falling on Deaf Ears look to finally be over, So Fingers Crossed, I don't Die before Ordering and Paying for the Boat. 🤞🏻😀 So Best Wishes to you Both, and uddles for Barnacle. Fair Winds. Bob in Wales. 🤔🌟🌟🌟⛵️

This episode convinced me that I HAD to go to the Swizzle Inn! We love it and the rum swizzles!!! Thanks Sophie!

Tip: Make a list of all the products on board and put them in numbered boxes, this way it will be easy to find what you need.😊

Very helpful, thanks.

Sad we haven't seen anything from you guys. Hope everything is ok. I have really enjoyed all of your videos.

Love the kit build, but how fun is the boat? Does the Elco get the boat on plane? What's the top speed?

You are amazing 😍 Big Respect from Algeria 🇩🇿 thank you for this informations 🎉

Enjoy the video Hint: Treat all nation flags respectfully and fold away Some folks are sensitive about it

Still like the machine?

I Love Your Story!!! Sorry I missed your Craft in Annapolis!! Beautiful boat! The Blue is Perfect! ✝️🙏❤️🇺🇲⛵️👣☘️🍍🤗

Beautiful! ✝️🙏❤️🇺🇲

Electra, if not too late!

What’s the name of the high pressure pump that you used in the video? I don’t want to pay 3500 for the kit. Thanks

I think Ryan and Sophie split

What's happen to the chanel no video for 4 months

Seeing Sophie and Ryan as a committed life couple when things are extreme has been as wonderful as all their boat work, sailing, and travel.

Are Y’all going to quit sailing? Hope all is well with you. Be safe.

Good grief, that's an expensive lifestyle!
