Dolphins everywhere - Last day to GIBRALTAR - Awanui NZ Ep 92 Nordhavn’s 1st N51

[@ClausSchneiderVitting]

Dear Mark and your entire family. What an amazing journey👏. I saw your channel by a coincidence 1,5 week ago and have now seen all episodes already. Couldn’t hardly sleep, work or being social - got serious addicted 😮. And to be honest I had my own little crises when you braked the news, that your lovely wife Fiona would not be full time with you. My wife actually noticed, that I got a kind of a “small depression” - bad mood for some days on your behalf. I’m happy to see, that you get along and live goes on 🙏. I will go to Spain on January 1st, but unfortunately you have moved on at this time - I would have loved to drop by to see Awanui NZ in real life. I wish you all the the best at your journey ahead of you - stay safe and healthy. I have mad a goal to get the chance to say hallo to you and Awanui NZ before you reach NZ - dreams are important in life, right? All the best from Denmark 🇩🇰

What an epic journey so far. I’ve truly enjoyed every moment you have shared; the sunrises, the sunsets, the beautiful and historic scenery all along the way, the coffee’s and the pastries, the various marinas and villages and so much more but especially your absolutely stunning drone footage that have shown us places we never would have seen otherwise! Thank you and so looking forward to what’s next! Stay safe!

One chapter closing, and another begins. The rock of Gibraltar looks amazing. Touring the old tunnels around there is supposed to be spectacular. Supposedly almost more tunnels below ground than streets above.

What a nice surprise... another video from Mark.... You have now sailed from Turkey to Gibraltar!! Crossed the Med, and ready to enter the Atlantic - not a small achievement!! Really well done!! And the small issues on the way is a testament to Nordhavn - especially the way they have supported you an the 1st' N51... Really really looking forward to your first atlantic videos - not to mention the Bay of Biscay .... Thanks for your continuous willingness to share...!!

Momentous! Major accomplishment, ending a long, enjoyable cruise through the Mediterranean. Well done Mark.

[@davidlangford3841]

After watching the video I have an extreme case of envy Mark.

[@AwanuiNZ]

Just an aeroplane ride away! Left Gibraltar this morning.

[@Vinnie101a]

I’m going to enjoy this episode over a nice cold beer

[@AwanuiNZ]

It’s England so the beer does not have to be cold!!

[@The71Percent]

We hope to pass that rock one day. Thanks for sharing

[@AwanuiNZ]

No worries it was quite a milestone

[@easybigun7825]

I can't thank you enough for taking us along on your amazing adventure. I hope you're managing to see some of the cricket (we had to allow Tim Southee a win in his final test 😉). Wishing you calm seas.

[@GingerNinja68]

Wow. What a journey. Congrats Mark. Gib runway is the only airport where I’ve had abortive landings due to cross winds

[@paulnabbs9112]

Cracking update Mark, are you spending Christmas on Awanui NZ

[@Maxdukemax]

Well done. What part of your Mediterranean adventure is most memorable, people / scenery, etc. Take care

[@opsadventures2290]

What a trip across the Med! I am trying to catch up from the start, but your playlist is in reverse order. You can sort on your end from oldest to newest for people that want to binge from the start. Cheers!

Lekker man lekker 🇿🇦

Happy Holidays and Merry Christmas Mark. Greetings from Oklahoma !! Love this episode

[@jamesmackay4652]

Safe journy over or through the bay .

[@AwanuiNZ]

Thanks so much…all nighter tonight

[@jamesmackay4652]

The dolphins are a sight you never forget,espesially in the calm waters of the Med.Hope you don`t bump into the Gibealter Orca.

[@AwanuiNZ]

Currently waiting for them to arrive as we head out of Gibraltar

[@Bob-bo8ik]

The bottlenose dolphins in Scotland are the biggest in the world. Hopefully, you will see some.

[@AwanuiNZ]

I hope so too we love them…got our eyes open for Killer Whales at the moment.

[@colinanderson3834]

@@AwanuiNZ I had forgotten about that in that area. Fingers crossed.

[@colinanderson3834]

@@AwanuiNZ You will pass through the edge of the high activity area in a few hours on your current heading.

[@jamesmackay4652]

Hi Mark,maybe a silly question,is there any differance of seaward navigation to aircraft navigation exept for the obvious bouys ect? thankyou,Jimi Mackay.

[@AwanuiNZ]

Basic principles the same but implementation quite different. Makes sense though.

[@brianbarbarich1401]

Mark please do not take any chances when travelling in Atlantic during winter. I have been tossed around like a cork in the sea in a 400 meter plus container ship near Bay of Biscay on route to Europe. Sea gets very bad in this area during winter.

[@AwanuiNZ]

Absolutely Brian. I do not want a fright. I will tread carefully….promise

[@donaldbelton5078]

I lived in Gibraltar when in the armed forces for two years

[@billrosmus6734]

Are you the only two guys on board? Standing on the foredeck tooling with a drone, leaning over the rails, and no life vests. Would be cool to watch the boat driving away wouldn't it. Yeah, a perfect stranger giving you shit. What more can you ask? Risk = likelihood x consequence
