Episode9 Mutineer The Boat and the Man

[@SimonClaringbold]

All the best, what a boat, the biggest Sampson post I've seen on a 50 footer! Thanks for sharing

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

Yep. Great boat.

[@Gordon_Highlander]

Many thanks for sharing this most intriguing episode with us old dude Lord Dude. I found that very inspiring. Looks like we are all almost the same age. Only a couple of years off the *BIG 80* and I cannot say that I am looking forward to it. All my old Army mates are dropping off the perch now and hope I still can stand to Attention in 2 years time. Best wishes my friend, and safe sailing!

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

Yeah. Have to keep the Suit dry cleaned at our age Angus....and it ain't for weddings

[@TerryKeever]

Really enjoyed this chat between friends. 84 in 4 months., wow. Thanks

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

Glad you enjoyed it Dude. Thanks for watching.

[@Cruising-MS-Matakana]

Bloody great interview with the old Dude. Love that his boat only draws 800, make it so good for liveaboard.. Cheers from NZ

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

Yeah dude. Can't beat the shallow draft. Opens up a whole new world.

I'm going on 80 and still have the burning ambition of taking up seafaring again. Great to hear two Aussies getting into the no holds barred anti bs conversation

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

[@jmpersonal2402]

I miss cruising the coast - I started too late in my cruising adventures, and then a quirk of fate made me shorebound... Great to see a couple of fine gents living the life that old dudes deserve... I live vicariously through checking your journeys.

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

A Shame dude, but thanks for watching.

[@vic2e652]

Amazing ...I love this . Such a couple of great Aussies....

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

Thanks dude.

[@bencampbell2407]

Thanks Norm for sharing, I had always wondered about that boat

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

She is very recognisable. A lovely girl.

[@roberre164]

Inspirational. Amazing achievements there.

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

Yep. Chris is my hero.

[@rossinnz]

Good on both of yas. Cheers.

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

Thanks dude👍

[@peterkelly250]

Feel good story. This Dude is amazing. Does he sail solo or does he have family on board too.

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

He has crew occasionally, but does a lot of single handing. Thanks for watching dude.

[@iancoyles9325]

A beautiful boat, especially in full sail. I have several pictures of her sailing the Broadwater in Qld. Lovely old gaffer.

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

She does look good under sail.

[@jimlofts5433]

2 great characters - well done - To quote charles dickens in Oliver Twist - more please

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

OK. I'll see what I can do Dude.

[@BALO.Marine]

Great video. Very entertaining. I would love to hear more stories. That is an amazing looking boat and Chris sounds like an Awesome dude!

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

He is. A few more vids like this in the pipeline.

[@cyrillawless]

Wow hes doing well for 84

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

He is.. Gives me hope.

[@nevergiveup-db6fp]

That is a beautiful boat. I would love to see a crows nest I guess that’s not possible?

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

He's got rat lines on her. Probably wouldn't use a crows nest much.

[@nevergiveup-db6fp]

You’re awesome for replying I’m just an old painter that is used to climbing lol

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

@@nevergiveup-db6fp Yep. Stay of them ladders as you get older.

[@pickenshovel]

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

Hiya Pete.

[@poerava]

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

For sure dude. Thanks for the comment.

[@lukeandglenda]

How long was it into the interview did you realise this was a mistake lol

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

What mistake?

[@Ron-dx9wq]

Doesn't he have a twin brother with a boat called "Buccaneer"? Sorry, Norm, but shouldn't this be under "Show Us Your Boat, Mate"

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

I think it is dude.

[@Ron-dx9wq]

Oops, I was thrown by the "Episode 9".

[@Gordon_Highlander]

ROTFLMAO Lord Dude. They will NEVER bury me in toosers. I'll go into the ground in my Kilt with a dirk stuck in my right hose. LOLOL!

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

Yeah Dude. Whit’s fur ye’ll no go by ye!
