Nice to see dingy sailors who respect waters but are not ignorant and fearful. Seamanship matters. Paul in Canada

Woo ! That was some real surfing coming out of the river n got even more adrenaline pumping around n beyond Lion Rock. Those rollers n swells n riding into Mailand ( hope I spelled that right) was chilling n trilling ta boot. Great history lesson about the wrecked steamer Bruce. I know Paul amends some of his trips with juicy historic bits. I for one find those edifying n interesting bringing me back to watch the action sailing n learning more of Australia’s historic passed we got little or none in our school history lessons.. Thsnkz Mate .. Filming n narration were excellent! Cheers 🥂 n fair winds.. Papa J Up here in Puget Sound armchair theater

Thanks, Bruce. These videos are such a pleasure as the winter winds start blowing here in northern Japan... Just saw Josh's Maitland Bay video, and I imagine Paul's is coming soon... Looking forward to all your cruises taking us through the dark season coming upon us.

I like your boat seems very quick and ideal for dinghy cruising. Video, doesn't give wave height as much as it should. Great group of dinghy comradeship.

I enjoy your videos, seeing the Australian coast, and places to camp on your adventures. I also have an O’Day Daysailer 1 and I’m repairing some damage to make it seaworthy this winter. Would love to see a tour of your boat, what cleats you’re using and where you have positioned them. Also the wooden rails on these boats seem to have different shapes and sizes, wondering if you modified your rails. And also what horsepower motor is suitable for your needs. Thanks for the great videos!

Thanks Mark, Glad you enjoy them. My boat had no coamings on it when I bought it so I built mine on top of the side deck. I have a 3.3hp motor which is enough but I wouldn’t go any smaller for the sort of sailing I do.Slightly larger hp would be good but it’s a weight trade off.My boat has been set up slightly different being built here so maybe not the best example for you to follow, I look at US boats for tuning mine.Good luck with your project they are a great boat I love mine. Cheers Bruce

Interesting info on the SS Maitland, I always assumed paddle vessels were for rivers (or at best coastal in very good weather), I didn't know they took them out into ocean conditions especially with a gale blowing.
@brucedyson-smith459
@brucedyson-smith459 2 жыл бұрын
Yes I think before propellers were widely used they had paddle power but different hulls to the river version.It does appear to have been to much to go out in that weather though.

Was formally a "live aboard " for years on many occasions on a Bristol 24 (full keel - I believe weighed the better part of a ton) and was a little intimidated by being a boat owner again

The Potter will be a bit different to sail than the Bristol 24.Trailer boats are a lot less maintenance without the slipping etc.
