Nice one guys! I'm fully expecting you to smash that med mooring. In a little while, you'll be motoring up to the pontoon, one of you, on the bow, will drop the anchor then check the anchor chain when there's enough chain paid out. The boat will swing 180, the person on the stern will shout for more chain then, just at the right moment, shout for the chain to be checked. The boat will gently drift up to the pontoon, the person on the stern will step ashore with 2 mooring lines, graciously declining offers of help. Everyone will be very impressed with these young people and their boat handling skills! I look forward to seeing that video. Wishing you all the best for 2022. Much love from the Forest of Dean.

[@ChasingCurrents]

Aw thanks Andy! We would be looking forward to the day that happens too haha. We have now (somewhat successfully) done our first Med mooring, and though it wasn't quite as bad as we thought - it also wasn't exactly smooth 😅 Comes with time like everything I suppose! Thanks so much, all the best for 2022 to you as well. Sending our love and hope you are all well x

[@MikeSantis]

Great guys. Mediteranean is full of challenges when it comes to weather. Like watching others sailing a 28 foot. I sail a Great Dane 28.

[@ChasingCurrents]

Thanks Mike 😊 Yes definitely, gonna enjoy learning all about it haha. Oh that's awesome, looks like a nice spacious layout inside too!

[@itsTheDave-q3f]

I'll never let you go brynn ........ "YEET"

[@ChasingCurrents]

Hahaha. Aww hope your well mate 😁🤙 say hi to the guys for me

[@ShipHappensUK]

Congratulations guys xx

[@ChasingCurrents]

Thanks guys! We were just talking about you haha, is there a weekend that works well for us to come give you a hand? 👀 Xx

[@ShipHappensUK]

@@ChasingCurrents you are welcome over any time! We are there every Saturday x

[@jamesmcmahon7837]

Congratulations, What an achievement! Don’t stop inspiring others to follow their dreams! Fair winds 👍🏼👍🏼

[@ChasingCurrents]

Aw thanks so much 😊 👍⛵

[@dougintothesunset]

You make me wish I was young again . . . . Living on a sailboat on the Mediterranean, what a dream. :-)

[@ChasingCurrents]

We definitely feel so blessed, grateful we get to share it with you all too 😊

[@ianriley5817]

Guys if your sailing up the Med in 22 give me a shout. We live on the coast in Calpe in between Valencia amd Alicante. Your welcome to relax here and have a dip in the pool

[@ChasingCurrents]

Aw thanks Ian, that would be awesome! We will hit you up if we sail that way, which is the plan at the minute! Cheers

[@brianmcintyre6407]

I love the sarcasm and your makeshift video! I was an instant like and subscribe.

[@ChasingCurrents]

Aww cheers for that Brian! Glad you enjoyed 😁

[@niklaslindgren4690]

Love the music video bit 😂🥳 No need to apologize fir that. You live a luxurious life. There are bigger boats and more money. But you travel the same waters and you are under the same sun. Enjoying the same view. I would choose your way any day.

[@ChasingCurrents]

Aww thank you haha. Yes that's the thing we love, the sea offers such a special kind of freedom - it doesn't matter what boat you have when you're anchored all with the same beautiful views. It's so cool 😁 And yes we agree, it definitely feels luxurious to us too!

[@brettdurrans15]

Don't stress the med mooring. As there are 2 of you you will find that if you have to drop the anchor and reverse in you will find the anchor will keep you straight... and use your prop walk to help you!!! If there is no anchoring to do but rather taking slime lines from the dock just take it easy, slow is pro, and use fenders...cause that is what they are there for!!! Happy New Year!

[@ChasingCurrents]

Aw thanks Brett, yeah that's true. We'll certainly be whacking loads of fenders out 😂 Happy New Year to you too!

[@titanwindswell]

Fair play guy's... best wishes from sunny Southsea...actually F***ING cold n miserable Southsea lolz...safe sailing

[@ChasingCurrents]

Aw thanks Martin! Sending our love to chilly Southsea 😬 We're actually gonna be heading down there around March to visit pals, so maybe we'll see you there👍

[@chilesauce7248]

Goin' mad in the Med, yeah! Congrats on your arrival in the reverse parking center of the world, happy moorings. 😉 Fair winds n' following seas. Will you make it to the black sea?

[@ChasingCurrents]

Haha absolutely! Yepp, thanks 😅 really looking forward to it with our extremely temperamental reverse haha - lots of fenders are gonna be put out. We would love to make it to the Black Sea, not sure it will be this season but who knows 😊

[@chrisballUKtoNZ]

loved that shot from the front of the boat looking back as you left the rock, amazing backdrop that!! happy new year to you both aswell!! 🥳🥳🍻

[@ChasingCurrents]

Aw thank you! We loved that shot too 😁Rounding Gibraltar rock was so cool, especially with the clouds forming above it as well. Happy New Year! Wishing you all our best 👍

[@ChasingCurrents]

Aw thanks guys 😊 Yes absolutely, get out to us! All your hard work will pay off in the next couple of years I'm sure. Who knows maybe we'll be doing an Atlantic crossing together 👀

[@sailing-etanche]

Nice video. You made it to the Med. Like the melted chocolate and the clip from " I'm on a boat"

[@ChasingCurrents]

Thanks! Yes we made it, very excited 😁 Haha, cheers - glad you enjoyed!

[@sailinstardreamer]

happy new year to the both of you. another great video, you both look as if your realy enjoying yourselves and living the dream day after day

[@ChasingCurrents]

Happy New Year to you too! Thanks a lot, we really are enjoying ourselves - feel very lucky 😁

[@seawench555]

Nice sailing, just heads up about the Orcas around Spain etc ok, be safe things can change real quick. 😁🇦🇺

[@clivestainlesssteelwomble7665]

Wildings if they can get their engine fixed are thinking of heading to Greece next year. .. And the Barefoot Doctors will be in the Med to pick up their new cat. and to tour .

[@ChasingCurrents]

Love your sailing KZbinrs updates for us haha, we're definitely hoping to hook up with Wildlings if they do end up in Greece - that would be awesome. Hopefully we bump into others too!

@@ChasingCurrents Metaphorically I hope .. by linking channels you increase traffic and the pool of knowledge and experience on offer to those people the watchers as well as the active followers. It breaks down bunker mentalities ... you soon find out the human beings from the Trolls and bots .. and the algorithms start working for you rather than pigeon holing and being a pain in the .... by pretending they know what you want.... Like the doors... with a certain free traveling 🤖 robot with a very large brain. Meantime im still trying to get my back moving normally.

[@rainfinger]

Now your boat is perfectly positioned for an Atlantic crossing to the West Indies. Give it a go. You can do this.

[@ChasingCurrents]

We would be very tempted, but we do want to spend a little time exploring the Mediterranean first. We're definitely thinking of it for next year though ;)

[@AHmad-pm4pb]

Happy New Year 2022! Bless your next adventure 😷😎💪

Happy New Year to you as well! Thanks for joining our journey so far 😊😁

[@jamesodwyer8148]

I'm living full time on my sailboat in Mallorca, the med gets absolutely horrible sometimes. It's so unpredictable sometimes Fair winds

[@ChasingCurrents]

Oh that's great! Maybe we'll see you there then 😁 Yeah, we must admit it's harder to plan passages and sails than we were expecting in the Med! Fair winds to you ⛵

[@jamesodwyer8148]

@@ChasingCurrents yeah it's very temperamental in the winter. Mallorca, menorca and ibiza are really decent sailing grounds. Much better than mainland Spain. Tons of free sheltered anchorages

[@SailingOTR]

Gotta say with the green ball cap and the full bushy beard you aced the "Fidel Castro" look.

[@ChasingCurrents]

Hahaha, man that's so true. How didn't either of us see that. It's usually Che Guevara so there's definitely a pattern here.

FELIZ AÑO NUEVO !! 🍻🍾

[@johnmccormick4055]

Can u just anchor any wer this wer am going. Be lost

[@ChasingCurrents]

You can anchor in so many places :) It's best to check apps like Navily, No foreignland, and Navionics to check anchorages are suitable (to check the holding, depth, accessibility, any restrictions). Hope this helps 👍
