CONGRATULATIONS JUDY, FOR YIUR FANTASTIC ACHIEVEMENT..... ALL THE BEST FORBOTH OF YOU..... FAIR WINDS ... & MY KIND REGARDS.... 🌷🍾🥂.... CHEERS......

[@hughburgess4168]

Thoroughly enjoyed that. It had everything: barbecue, floating supermarkets, tombs, kayaks and a wonderful wooden boat. Congratulations Judy. ⛵️

[@Alex000113]

A fancy sauce, but it looks like fish and chips to me :-) - congrats on making what look like great fries. Beautiful shot at 17:04. Time lapse a hit (moonrise) or miss. Quite an adventure at night with the boar ! (they can swim). Interesting take on modern wooden boat building.Nice to see all the technology enabling your lifestyle. Congrats Judy !

[@peterhaymaker7562]

Congratulations Judy on the Doctorate. Both of you, I loved the film and all content. Of the channels I follow yours is the one I most look forward to receiving. Thanks again for sharing with us.

[@nickwilkinson2501]

Loved the video once again. Well done to Judy on her graduation plus sporting a lovely new hair doo, xx

[@davidbrunkow64]

I really enjoyed the kayak sequence. Nicely done!

[@peterengel7885]

Congratulations Doctor Judy.

[@harbourdogNL]

Man, I enjoy this channel. The pieces are so well-paced, and such an affable couple, lovely vessel (can't beat that gorgeous cockpit)...a pleasure to watch.

Probably the best video production on youtube episodes after episodes extremely well done

Thank you. Go short for summer!

[@keithgabriel8455]

For your birthday Judy, or maybe Steve...,, you might like to consider negotiating for installation of a fully plumbed-in small automatic washing machine. We have one on our Southerly 38, which is a lot smaller than Fair Isle, and it works well without taking up much space. I can provide more details if required. Currently in Amsterdam, having come up from Eastbourne via Breskens and the SMR from Vlissingen . Next stop Vollendam. And congratulations Judy on the PhD; a great effort given all the distractions afloat. Keith G.

[@judyaslett6209]

We have been looking. A mini washer looks like a good option. We will see….

[@keithgabriel8455]

Judy - ours is a SOBA Babynova 1000. It fits with room to spare in a 600mm wide space between two bulkheads, bolted to a shelf above two pre-existing drawers (above waterline) with cabinetry adjusted to fully enclose it , but with the front 160mm of the shelf above hinged for easy access to the controls along the (inclined) front edge of the top of the machine. My wife was pleasantly surprised by how quiet it is- the Jabsco water pump makes more noise than the w/machine. Hope this helps your deliberations!

[@fgansell]

Awesome achievement Judy, great video incl the moon footage. Thanks.

[@jayschafer5385]

Steve/Judy, we just joined as Patrons of your wonderful channel. We enjoy your vids as much or more than most other sailing channels. Love your boat. We are sailors, too. Have a Catalina 36 on DeGray Lake in Arkansas, USA. CONGRATS, Judy on your recent doctorate! Great accomplishment for a liveaboard! Jay and Susan Schafer

[@svfairisle]

Thank you Jay and Susan, very kind.

[@svfairisle]

Judy will write to you on the Patreon site about our WhatsApp group if you want to join that. We are looking forward to sailing to the US, probably next year, and we are also planning on visiting the Annapolis boat show this year when we come over to see Judys dad. We haven’t seen him since Covid.

Rick stein is no. 1. Great Gulet story amazing what can be done

[@willmwaura88]

Congratulations Judy. Good cinematography from Steve. Now I’m looking forward to a Technical Corner video about that tiny grill

[@judyaslett6209]

good idea. Will get that one done. There three different sizes I think. We got the smallest one

Abrahamovitch's yacht is atypically lovely for a modern billionaire super yacht. Well proportioned. The gullet it spectacular. Congrats for the academics.

Forget sailing, I am learning film and photography from you. How you frame is pleasing.

Thank you. I’ve just started a ‘Camera 101’ series which will I hope to get into some good tips & tricks to improve everyone’s filming.

Really enjoy your videos. Looking forward to seeing more. Judy, your new look makes you look so much younger. Keep up the great adventures! Congratulations on your doctorate!

Thanks!

[@magneticinteriors8530]

So much in one video! Well done - but would love to see an episode on Judy's doctorate and thesis!

[@svfairisle]

I think an episode on female genital mutilation would scare our audience off nicely! We did do little video for the Patreons when we went out to film the last but one doco in The Gambia... www.patreon.com/posts/34794089 I'll get Judy to send you a link to the full docos if you're really up for watching!

The films are on my KZbin channel judyaslett2. Happy to share the thesis.

Many congratulations Judy. I love this channel - very imformative and excellently shot and put together. From Devon in the UK.

That moon! Amazing! We are going to be in Porto Montenegro in Sept/Oct - hope to see you there! Congratulations Judy - a brilliant achievement and an important issue. (And love the new hair!)

Helpful tip: The next time you cook your fish, wrap in aluminum foil with the same ingredients.

[@judyaslett6209]

Yes we do wrap in foil sometimes. It works well

[@stephenchapman8344]

Well done Judy. Confident that the next fish will be caught by Steve. 👍

[@judyaslett6209]

haha me too

[@SVZonda]

Congratulations Dr. Judy! All the best Richard

[@matjam8305]

They recently passed a law limiting your time in Göcek to two weeks to cut down on pollution. Perhaps also to allow other boats in. At least that was what I read in the paper pre summer season. Kayaks are great. Have not used my Dinghy since I got one. Cheers

[@svfairisle]

I hadn’t heard that, but it makes perfect sense. If they did pass that law though it doesn’t seem to be being enforced

[@matjam8305]

@@svfairisle maybe it is enforced selectively when they want to make a case or since new needs coordination. Also possible it was binned due to feedback.

[@sailingxtremeadventures542]

Suggestion - Cook the fish and ingredients in a foil parcel retains the juices and easier to clean the grill - Those Lotus grills are perfect for boats and beach BBQ's bought one each for my sister and daughter.

[@jsvno]

Congratulation to her.. Hip,Hip Hurray

[@peterhuskinson4111]

BTW, boars are great swimmers! Here on the west coast of France they swim out to the islands and sometimes get caught up in fishing nets.

G'day mates from Brisbane Australia I noticed your tender motor was a ice What has happened to your electric motor? I do enjoy your channel Thanks for taking the time to put it out there 🎉🤗

[@svfairisle]

You’re giving away the fact you didn’t watch our last episode! The petrol outboard was borrowed, but never fear the eProp is back in action now. Very glad too, getting that lump of a motor on and off our dinghy was not fun!

[@SVImpavidus]

Judy how fast can you paddle? 😁They do come out during the day. We saw them at Kekova and captured two on film. But they did not have a kayak 😉 Sail Safe Guys, Ant & Cid.

[@judyaslett6209]

Not fast enough! I think Steve was just trying to be nice…..

[@andyleatherbarrow7322]

Loads of power, water maker = washing machine?

[@allmomomosthomebus3895]

Congratulations to Judy on the PhD!

[@ahmetbaltalarli]

Thanks a lot for the great videos. I had a similar situation with SIMI. I hope Get well soon. I follow you closely. What's your opinion on the watermaker? How is the energy consumption? does it drain the batteries? Are you satisfied with the production?

[@svfairisle]

Yes the Spectra watermaker has lived up to all expectations so far, draws 10amps as advertised and has been a game changer for us. We have our Super B lithium batteries as well which mean we always have power to run the watermaker

[@robruh4100]

Nice video. thank you

[@cuthbertmilligen]

10:12 what happened to the much-applauded electric outboard on the tender?

[@judyaslett2]

It is with us. We borrowed this one from a friend for a while

[@freakent]

I was wondering the same.

[@judyaslett6209]

All good and being used . We borrowed the petrol engine for a short time and have now handed back

[@freakent]

@@judyaslett6209 We have the same electric outboard 😀

[@johnmajewski1065]

Interesting solution, I have a 12 volt UV sterilizing light connected to the product water line just near the water maker well before my water tanks. this way I make doubly sure the product water from the water maker is safe. Before I did this installation, I was ill from two different water-borne parasites. I know that the water maker membrane is also claimed to filter out all bug pathogens. However, after being very ill and taking X 5 - 3 different antibiotics over a year, one can't be too careful when it comes to drinking water and one health.

[@svfairisle]

Yes I agree you need to be careful. We used to have a filter system but the filters are very expensive and the flow rate quickly becomes very slow so this system is much better we think.

[@salimerdem7544]

Looks like a sea bass, I also don’t put it in a foil, prefer to have it like you do it..

Here in the UK the Buck moon (so named by the Algonquin indians) is called the Hay moon, due to it traditionally being the hay making season.

[@svfairisle]

Yes that’s what I thought but the BBC were insisting on calling it the Buck moon. Have they gone all American on us?

[@bobbutcher7725]

Isn't it the 'harvest moon?'

[@svfairisle]

@@bobbutcher7725 No thats the next one I think

[@sailingeurybia2272]

Congratulations Dr.Judy. Steve, what happened to the e-propulsion?

[@svfairisle]

It was in the episode before, came up with a fault code, all good now.

[@sailingeurybia2272]

@@svfairisle thank you for your answer. I remember seeing that but were afraid, that the repair on the electronics didn’t work out. Have a nice Sunday! Greetings from Italy.

[@svfairisle]

@@sailingeurybia2272 Yes that’s right my attempts at repairing it failed, but it was under guarantee, eProp’s service centre is in Istanbul so normally it would be sent repaired and returned to the dealers in Cas, but as we wanted to keep moving and cross over to Greece we sent it off and they sent us a new one directly. We had it within a week which we thought was excellently

[@Prayforwindandsurf]

You missed the Dodecanese - wonderful islands

[@svfairisle]

No, we sail to Symi tomorrow

[@Waynedomo1]

Hey Steve did you once work in media like TV as an interviewer reporter etc you seem to have a familiar face but can’t work it out. Love your yacht & channel very envious. 🖖😎💚🇳🇿

[@chriszanf]

They both did. Steve was a cameraman and Judy was in front of the camera reporting.

[@svfairisle]

I was always behind camera apart from the very rare occasions the reporter keeled over on location and I had to fill in. I worked mainly with Judy though & she never did, made of sterner stuff!

[@thomasthornton5737]

😊

[@TR4zest]

I watched with interest your videos about the epropulsion outboard. I noticed it stored onboard and you are using the petrol outboard. Is the electric one broken again?

[@svfairisle]

No thats the new one, we just haven't swapped over yet as the Petrol engine has to go back to Frank when we get back to Gocek town. It's so ridiculously heavy to get on and off we're just leaving it there until we can hand it back.

[@TR4zest]

[@notrut]

I thought your friend's GULET was fabulous!

[@heimslach]

Hi Steve - why a kayak over a paddle board?

[@svfairisle]

We have a paddle board and we do like it but we don’t tend to go long distances on it and you need two to do things together. With the kayak we can explore much more and use it in place of the dinghy at times for shopping etc. ( we did use the paddle board once to take in the laundry but it’s not to be recommended! )
