Hi guys enjoyed the video would like to see more of your wife and the cat keep safe💜

[@JohnHayes-qs6ez]

They are both a bit camera shy, however I will see if I can turn them around 👍

Great videos cheers .... It looks like a great voyage you are on in a great part of the planet!!! I would love to hear a bit more about the star of the show Turtle!!! (make model specs etc) she really does a magnificent job .... proof that you don't have to spend squillions to own a viable live aboard motor yacht. Thanks again, fair winds and following seas.

I have a few episodes coming where we do some maintenance. Will see if I can get Kylie to do a tour.

mourilyan … a great natural harbor .. yes, but full of rubbish! (boats) … i had a very uncomfortable (one night) stay with a bunch of “local” boats swinging around unpredictably in a narrow area … one to AVOID …. unless you absolutely have NO other choice . I will be passing it by on my next trip for sure . enjoying your channel! keep up the great work.

I have to agree, it was a bit tight!

You could name the dinghy "Hatchling" 🐢

Whats the fuel consumption on such a vessel?

[@JohnHayes-qs6ez]

We don’t push her very hard. Generally cruise around 1500 RPM and that gives us between 5-7 knots depending on tide. That consumes 9.5 liters per hour. If we push to 2000 rpm we get 8 knots and fuel consumption pretty much doubles.
