MESSING ABOUT ON THE BOAT

[@maurelius57]

Ah!!! The old nemesis STEPS!!! LOL

[@WelshVilliageDad]

Love the mullet Barry. lol

[@nooneanybodyknows1321]

Barry, it may be time to have a readily available checklist. I understand forgetfulness. I suffer the same. You know firsthand if you hurt yourself, you are on your own. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. 🤔📃

[@gardensofthegods]

Odd that you should say that because in these comments somebody said he broke his ankle and tore his tendon . As for the forgetfulness there are some things you can do that are all natural and they are brain food . If you can buy butterfly blue pea tea or grow it ... it grows on the vine and the flowers are beautiful Deep Blue . You let them steep for at least 40 minutes and that tea is supposed to be very good for the brain and the whole neurology and other things . It's botanical name is Clitoria Ternatea. Personally the brand I like is called something like Shu Zen or Shou Zen . Seemed very fresh but you should take it out of the nylon tea bag . There are a number of videos about how good it is for you healthwise . You should also try to do a little bit every day or at least several times a week of black seed oil and the best come from in and around India and the Arabic countries because they have been making it for thousands of years . You can usually get it at the Indian Grocers and I like a brand called Ashwin Labs . The other one is pure ashwagandha powder without any fillers ...you don't want it in capsules . Said to be an adaptogen so it helps you deal with stress but sleep better at night and it is the only thing out there known to grow new brain cells . You're supposed to always take it with some ghee ... and if you want mixed in with some milk ... supposed to be with a good quality fat in other words . Helps with a number of things but also is said to get rid of depression and negativity . Ignore the videos of the guys Pumping Iron with no shirts on saying that it increases the testosterone because they did not do their research properly and what ashwagandha does is it balances the hormones for men and women alike . If you can do two or three of these things every week you will probably start to see a difference with memory and thinking more clearly

Captain Barry .. Another very enjoyable "real life" on the water video adventure .. Remember what the wise old Sage told me many years ago .. 'Given enough time, with the right equipment, and I'll get the task at hand accomplished' .. And, he also told me .. 'Life is hard yard by yard .. But, inch by inch, it's a cinch' .. And, neither have let me down in my 75 years .. Stay well, and thanks for posting.

[@noneya61]

ok Barry, get a wheel up on the bow and you can almost call it a mini amphibious assault craft! Barry Perrins, striking fear into the hearts and minds of the kiwis 😂

[@kennethdanielwatson1675]

good to see my late father isnt the last of us that still have some balls to do this alone as i do....there are some times that the heart races for sure....were living on the edge. love it.

[@gardensofthegods]

Nice , keep up the good work my friend . And Fairwinds for you .

[@RawPower7]

I laughed so much about the beer you forgot on the solar panel:)

[@Whodatindyman]

Long time Watcher and Subscriber of your videos. So when I opened this one I saw you wearing a women’s shirt. You always make me laugh! Keep them coming…

[@alfwilmot9473]

Hello Barry, great to see you getting ship shape again. As you get older your thought process and physical sharpness tend to slightly wain so just take things slower mate. Been following you since car trip to Portugal, my 86 year old sister always loved me to share your incredible adventures with her unti she recently passed away. Take care and make sure you look after yourself Barry 🙏👍😎

[@gardensofthegods]

He needs to drink a lot more water because it's very easy to get dehydrated and not even know it . Dehydration is more serious than people know and it can really affect the ability to think clearly . He can also do things like drink butterfly blue pea tea regularly which is really good for the neurology . Scientists and doctors have proven that people who live in the part of the world where they drink that have much more youthful brains and less forgetfulness . You just have to let it steep pretty long like 40 minutes . It turns the water a deep Vivid blue .

[@Borolad116]

Sorry for your loss, Alf.

[@pdutube]

Tuna - half feet is optimal depth! Great to see C-Dawg in action.

[@mrackelito1]

Hey you old Seadog, you should get a sponsor! I bet your viewers wouldnt mind at all to see you gain some of that sweet sweet sponsor money

[@guymanges3628]

Thank you Barry...

[@chancevonfreund1156]

Beard looks great Barry I hope you keep it.⛵

[@bencoss7003]

Running out of gas ain't like you can go to a gas station or walk on water to get there my my, but still I'm glad to see you're doing better Berry

[@gardensofthegods]

People are saying he broke his ankle and tore his tendon

[@bencoss7003]

Barry you can drink that beer just break for a commercial and have a truck fast while it's on commercial LOL

[@JCrook1028]

So cool seeing you back out on the water more.

[@gardensofthegods]

He was about to sell the Fiji but now I just heard that he broke his ankle and tore his ligament ... someone said it was on his Facebook

[@rogerbrown5558]

I'm a New Zealander, living in Auckland. Haven't have had a land line for over ten years. I don't know why they need a land line either.

[@jimmyjohnstone5878]

In my part of NE Scotland landline connection is required for internet WiFi as no cable. Mobile phone data is of course available but much of the software required for work is not available on mobile.

[@berikco]

Oddly enough he ended up breaking his ankle and tearing a tendon ... somebody said it was on his Facebook .

Ok, with Barry being a little shy naming locations, is the "pub" at the end the Parua Bay Tavern? GoogleMaps/StreetView and his last frames all seem to match..

Do you follow Barry on FaceBook? Currently he is dealing with a broken ankle and torn tendon, from May 26th, 2 weeks ago.

[@gardensofthegods]

Oh no I didn't know he had gotten injured ... what happened ? I can't stand Facebook I haven't been on it in about five and a half years now

Me too yeah I wanted to see him at some bar restaurant enjoying himself

[@TheRattyBiker]

Barry's living his best life in down in NZ... 🤣🤣 I'm so jealous!!! Honestly... I know most won't agree but I can envisage a future of Barry giving up sailing and opening Barry's Bar on a remote estuary or spit in NZ

[@gardensofthegods]

I could see him doing something like that too but not in a very remote area . I could picture it off the beaten path a little bit but still near where there are enough people and other venues that it would have a very good chance of success and the whole area would have a wonderful and friendly feeling .

[@tomkiefer2386]

[@jaydubya4727]

Looked like your dinghy wheels worked a treat! What a great idea. Your comments about not being able to spring into the dinghy like the old days and the little memory lapses are way too familiar to me. But, some days are way better than others here, I hope so for you, too.

[@gardensofthegods]

And I just found out he broke his ankle and tore his tendon .

First recollections while still in diapers were of being on a sailboat with my parents. Hopefully my last recollections will be on a sailboat after having to return to having to use diapers. Big Balls Barry is an inspiration to most of us that feel we can also do what you are doing at our age, but don't.

Hi Barry. Great to hear from you again. Another interesting video. Seems the New Zealand meteorological office is the same one we use here in the uk. Bloody useless. But they try and that is all we ask. Stay safe my friend.

Awesome thank you!

[@windingroad9678]

Been watching your channel for a long while. I'm an armchair adventurist yes but you make it feel like I'm there. 👍 Also do you know the song Lost Sailor by grateful dead? It's you. Give a listen sometime.

[@gardensofthegods]

Funny I don't recall that song and I used to have a book that had all their lyrics and chords . I'll have to look for it I just don't remember it . Funny you mentioned the dead because just last night I was looking at a film clip of when Bob Weir and Jerry's wife and a few others took Jerry's ashes and put them in the Ganges River . It's titled Jerry Garcia's Funeral ... or very similar to that but it was nice and not morbid .

[@gardensofthegods]

I don't think he always sees everything in the comments that he puts the mark next to so you might want to hit him up where you see him actually replying and he's sure to get your message . Did you hear that he broke his ankle and tore his tendon ? Somebody said it was on his Facebook but I haven't done Facebook in years now .

[@windingroad9678]

No I didn't hear about his ankle. I dont use Facebook but I can try to find out how he's doing. That song is sung by Bob Weir. It's really pretty. I hope he's a fast healer. 🙏

[@everydayeverything]

Sea dog is showing he’s got the COVID brain fog. Poor fellow. The old Sea dog would never forget where he’s left a beer

[@gardensofthegods]

I don't think that's what's going on . It's very easy for a person to get dehydrated working outside in heat , sunlight and humidity .... and it actually doesn't take much for a person to start to become dehydrated . Dehydration is no joke and it can really make a person not think clearly and yes probably even forget they still had some beer left .

[@jeffrandolf5673]

It's great living through Barry. I've never had a desire to sail around the world. Many have the desire w/o ever once setting foot on a boat. Having made several sailing journeys/deliveries in my youth... ( twice, 7 days offshore in the Gulf Stream encountering 30 foot seas & many, many 1 or 2 day trip deliveries) , I had just enough of a taste of it to quell that desire.

[@gardensofthegods]

30 ft waves oh my God ... yeah I think that would make a lot of people never want to be on a boat again . I'll bet you've got some really incredible stories .

[@jeffrandolf5673]

@@gardensofthegods "Stories"? Nothing too dramatic... just a few things that stick out in my memory.... One 7 day trip from Ct. to Ft. Laud, Fla., we had one FBI agent for crew. He brought his .38 revolver. We took a plywood floorboard, tied a line through the lift finger hole in it & dragged it 50 or so feet behind the boat. We all took shots from the stern at the floor board... then pulled it in to see who might've hit it. We were on the other side of the Gulf Stream... no other boats nor land for well over 100 miles. Once in very strong wind & seas, at midnight, the main halyard SNAPPED where it attaches to the head of the mail sail. The recoil from the snapped halyard shot straight up & spun like a helicopter blade at the top of the mast taking out all out wind speed/direction instrument heads, anchor light, tri-color light, antenna.... everything at the mast head. No more wind direction, nor wind speed on the instruments. You learn how to sail without instruments real fast by feeling the gusts & watching the tell-tales on the sails. And our radio communication was compromised. On an aluminum, 65 foot mini-maxi racing sloop, flat bottom, fin keel, not made for rough seas... the flat hull forward of the keel would ''oil can" (pop in & out) going over the tops of the 30 footers. Oil canning weakens the hull/welds & can potentially compromise the integrity of the hull (crack/hole). So to stop the ''oil-canning", when we reached the top of a wave, as soon as the stern would start to lift, (rudder easier to turn) we'd spin the 6 foot diameter helm's wheel hard to starboard (on a starboard tack) so the boat would slide & surf down the back side of the wave on it's side, rather than slamming down over the top & ''oil-canning''. Doing this for a 3 hour watch was a WORK OUT! Our top speed was 25 knotts, surfing the 65 foot boat down the back of some of the steepest waves. This was in the late '80's when I was in my late 20's. Now I'm 59... i'd do it again... one more time. Edit: Last story of note... also on the other side of the Gulf Stream, we had a pod of Killer Whales come up & swim & jump out of the water in front of the boat the same way dolphins do.

[@knutarneaakra6013]

[@barrypearson1047]

Fantastic

[@earlashton1342]

Hey Barry. Mate get yourself south into more scenery. And can I say that in the far North they have a very high rain fall. Come to the Bay of Plenty. Named by Capt. Cook. On the way there are many delights of which the Wynns have seen some. And along the way to the Port of Tauranga there are many safe Harbors. Like Whitianga, Whangamata, Tairua & Omokaroa. The only thing is, is that we are told we have the wettest winter in years. Today for me is the 11th June & I'm walking around the house in shorts & T shirt. With blue sky's & patchy cloud. 16 deg. C has been our high & I expect 7 will be our low tonight.

[@gardensofthegods]

He said he was going to be heading to Fiji next and now people are saying that he broke his ankle and his tendon

[@oldjack3023]

Hi Barry it's a bugger getting old believe me i know thankfully I can still remember the important things like where I put my beer

[@gardensofthegods]

But you know he was working outside in the bright sunlight heat and humidity and it's very easy to get dehydrated and not even know it . They say there are more people suffering from dehydration out there and don't even have a clue this is happening but it can certainly affect the memory and thinking .

[@romanaroun]

CHEERS MATE 🍸!!!

[@MotorSailingforOldDudes]

Hi Barry. Great to follow your adventures and would love to catch up when you get to Aus. I have just completed a pretty large lithium conversion on the boat and are about to head south to Tasmania for summer. Don’t know where you plan to head for but Tasmania hosts the Wooden Boat Festival next year in Feb. It’s worth visiting. Cheers mate.

[@gardensofthegods]

He was headed to Fiji next but somebody said he broke his ankle and tore his ligament and so I wonder when he's going to head out

[@philiporourke7896]

The boat looks great, that bay was beautiful, a nice place to anchor for awhile. Thanx Barry.

[@heimslach]

Haven't bothered to check my facts :-) but pretty sure getting in and out of tenders is leading cause of injury/ death around yachts - especially if you are feeling the years physically as you say. Maybe wear a life jacket if only for this bit - seems benign calm but it catches plenty out. Even those not drinking! Good luck

[@gardensofthegods]

I haven't gotten any details but somebody said that on his Facebook he mentions he broke his ankle and tore his tendon . But yeah that is some good advice you gave him
