I realise that I didn't explain what diesel bug is. There's a good explanation of it in the following link, and the issue with it is that if it grows in your boat fuel tank, it will eventually block your fuel filters, can damage your fuel pump and injectors and will ultimately stop the boat from running. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microbial_contamination_of_diesel_fuel

Maryanne looked stunning in her new hair dew. Along with diesel bug inhibitor I always add about a pint of 96% Ethanol to mix the water in the tank cause by condensation. In a diesel engine what isn't used from the pump to the injectors is returned at high temperature into the diesel tank. When the heated fuel cools it is replaced by high moister content air because diesel expand when heated and contracts when cold, letting the outside air enter the tank using the vent tube. This happens after a day of use and the boat sits overnight. Small amounts of water go to the bottom of the diesel tank and can clog and stop your engine if not treated. About a pint of Ethanol to every 100 liters when refueling your boat will allow the Ethanol to mix the water into the diesel without clogging the filter. If you have a fuel polisher it does this without the Ethanol. Just a trick I learned as a teenager working on a commercial fishing boat on the US West Coast.

I'm hopefully getting my first boat soon and greatly enjoy discovering and watching many of your videos including the walks and hearing about your childhood. I feel like I almost know you! Probably different to most of your subscribers, but I would really appreciate a video or two describing more basic boat owning tips like boat manoeuvring, tieing up when mooring in different attitudes, cleaning and maintenance tips & products, marine instrumentation usage etc. Stuff that you've learnt over the years.

i like these videos more of your own boat than that of the super yachts you review as your boat is kept in great condition and it's more realistic ... super yachts are for the mega rich ... you would need to win the euro millions to buy one .... and the reality is you can pop your yacht/boat in any Marina you want without any problems

I know nothing about boats or boating, not sure how I came across this vlog in the first place, but am smitten by it. Love the content, if I ever come up with the big numbers on the lotto, a sport boat will definitely be on my shopping list. Meanwhile I will just sit back and enjoy your videos. 😎

Hi Nick. Love the channel. Always loved boats, unfortunately I will never be able to have one. But still love your videos, have learnt a lot about boats and boating. Love the how to and technical side of things. Trimming boats has always been a bit of a mystery to me. Would like to see a video explaining that. I have been subscribed for about 6 months, and have started with your first video, trying to get to the latest. Thank you for a great channel.

Perfect to go with my morning coffee, just. 😁 01:29 ~ what a perfect name for a vessel, even if it is just a sailboat... 😝 08:11 ~ AGREED, absolutely nobody. 😆😂🤣 I laughed so hard! In truth, I LOVE her cameos when she joins and the fact they are that makes them SO pleasant. But unless she knows more about yachts than you do, maybe you should keep the job, hahaha... Thanks *again* for sharing your personal life along with the tours! 👍👍

Since I use HVO diesel that is not sold at the local fuel dock, I've got a 200 l oil drum that I take on a trailer to a gas station that has that fuel and then it's gravity fed by a Ø 40 mm hose to the boat. It takes five trips to the gas station for full tanks but I only do it once or twice per year.
