Ep 299 | DISASTROUS Camden Settlement, Hanover Bay South, Kimberley, Sailing Nutshell

[@britannia-foundry]

I am not at all surprised that you have an alarm to tell you when the wine is running out 😉, a touching episode and I am sure the Camden Settlement spirits will appreciate your sentiment x

[@LifeinaNutshell]

Hi Steven. It was a very interesting place to visit. W.

[@macca5948]

Hi Team, you have the best Kimberley exploration videos on You Tube, thanks for the journey. The place is so prolific fish wise that you can catch fish by accident, I'm convinced your success is accidental no one could have as little success as you two if they were trying.🤙👍

[@LifeinaNutshell]

Thank you Macca for your lovely comment. W.

Living as we do in Western Australia we are learning so much from you two about the Kimberley. Keep up the tremendous work and by the way your drone footage in previous episodes has been superb. Harley & Shelley

[@LifeinaNutshell]

Thank you so much, Harley and Shelley. So glad you’re enjoying our vlogs. Thanks for watching and commenting. W.

Love your work. It was especially good to see Hanover Bay, where in 1867 English explorer George Grey began his expedition to walk to the Swan River Colony. If you are interested in a potted history of his ill-fated odyssey let me know and I would be happy to email it to you. Cheers and keep up the excellent work.

[@paulas7847]

Sorry, that should be 1837 that Grey landed in Hanover Bay.

[@LifeinaNutshell]

That would be fantastic Paul. I love reading about explorers. I’ll fated or not.

[@jeffreylord8172]

Fantastic scenery, , the baot is behaving, and peanut works well. I envy you, I hope the fishing is good ,

[@LifeinaNutshell]

Hi Jeffery. It’s all pretty fabulous! W.

[@jimfisk4474]

Hi Wendy and Magnus, love the scenes as always. Never been to Australia. Liquor liquor where's the liquor. Glad you two are enjoying your life this way. Thanks much and look forward to the next, bye

[@LifeinaNutshell]

Hi Jim. It’s not a bad lifestyle. Thanks for watching. W.

[@peterjohnstaples]

Excellent again!

[@anthonymccabe7800]

Poor people, what hardships must they have endured? Pity about the wine, though. Enforced sobriety until you reach the next bottle store. You'll live. What a country, and what a life you have. All the best for the new year, take care.

[@LifeinaNutshell]

Thanks Anthony. Good for the health losing all the wine! Thanks for watching and commenting. W.

[@wow.sailor.]

Wow Sailor 👍

[@dennisfromoz6436]

Am saddened by this episode. All that history, and part of which in my lifetime. More than a tear from me guys. But ! That scenery, blooming' fabulous. Appears the whole coastline is all gigantic stone building blocks....Amazing. Then the disaster......Can't drink bilge water guys. Quick, where's the nearest bottle shop ...lol Thanks for the Vids guys...champion efforts..Cheers

[@LifeinaNutshell]

Thanks Dennis. It’s an amazing place. Makes one think. W.

Wind on the nose, that`s sailing summed up in 4 words.

[@LifeinaNutshell]

Absolutely! Funny how it happens more often than not! Thanks for watching. W.

[@bobjoncas2814]

...LOOKIN' GOOD. GREAT BACK STORY. KEEP SAFE IN '23

[@LifeinaNutshell]

Thanks, Bob. W.

[@peterhaan9068]

Wow, 2 months without wine. Maybe you should name this sailing adventure, "The Camden!"

[@LifeinaNutshell]

Now there’s an idea! Thanks for watching. W.

[@christopherforster6555]

Lovely video possums thanks thanks.

[@LifeinaNutshell]

Thanks Christopher. W.

[@karlsteingall6832]

I love the see yeahs in your videos, keep them coming! Thanks for another great video, going to be hard purifying the wine in the bilge for consumption but I’m sure Magnus will come up with a fix🤔

[@christinehammell6365]

Just loving these videos. Thanks for sharing your amazing journey. I really hope you have an emergency supply of wine x

[@LifeinaNutshell]

Hi Christine. No wine! Good for the health! Thanks for watching and commenting. W.

[@garyc5483]

Pity about the wine loss. How are you going to manage 2 months without it ? Thanks for sharing your journey. Love the content. Wet & cold in Northampton so you are better off where you are now. 🙂 Be careful of the music in the background, you might get a strike for copyright. It happened to another sailing channel and you could barely make out the music was playing. Fair winds & regards from the UK

[@LifeinaNutshell]

Thanks for the info. No wine for two months… a disaster! W.

[@MrRourk]

Wine alarm is most important feature :)

[@LifeinaNutshell]

Absolutely! W.

[@prof.heinous191]

10 Li wine in the bilge... Me - which way is the wind blowing - Broome or Darwin? ; )

[@LifeinaNutshell]

It’s Broome! W.

[@johnmajewski1065]

Just shows, I feel for the poor souls I never knew from Camden Settlement. It is clear the promise of a new life ended in death - were misled by people possibly of ignorance or bad intent driven by self-interest. Some human beings aren't human at all? Loss of wine is painful, I keep mine in bottles that are packed in reusable blowup plastic air wine packs you can buy online. Kimberley, what an adventure... If you can imagine removing water and plant growth, from your epic videos, it could be the topography of the Mars landscape. SV Skoiern IV.

[@LifeinaNutshell]

It was an amazing experience

[@donzie13]

How was the wine let out?

[@LifeinaNutshell]

A mystery… probably a dodgy seal on the keg. W.

[@varieze117pj7]

Don't give up. Give the bilge a taste. Country folk can survive. Worst, it's a bit of a petroleum taste. Kind of like drinking beer while changing a blown hydraulic line on the farm.

[@williamavery9185]

Great video with stunning scenery. Have you not got a bottle of gin hidden for emergency.

[@LifeinaNutshell]

Hi William. Unfortunately, no. Although Magnus did once find a bottle of wine which had fallen down inside the back of the seat. We cherished that one! Thanks for watching. W.

[@arthuralexander2257]

better hope the bilge rats don't start singing sea shanties all day and night.a rat stood on peanuts deck his pockets full of crackers ect.

[@LifeinaNutshell]

Hilarious! Thanks for watching. W.

[@michaelsenior7858]

I'm I missing somefink. 🤯 when you go to a place where the weather is very very hot you can't go without a drink of water for very long ..what the hell were they thinking no fresh water for miles and hostile native's to boot.....

[@janshort3663]

That's exactly what I was going to ask. Why didn't they build near the water?

[@LifeinaNutshell]

I believe the water was about five kilometres away. When they first settled it was at the shore then they moved closer to the water for the main settlement… I think. W.

[@keithdrower9120]

Thank you. This is incredible. Those brave souls must have been disappointed. It would have been much easier to farm crocodiles. Next time take two kegs....

[@LifeinaNutshell]

Hi Keith. Duly noted about the kegs! W.
