JOURS DE FÊTE - close encounters of the boat kind

[@anthonymitchell2189]

When ive had a rough day and i come home and Roger has posted another video i can feel the stress just fade away ..in a mad world this seems like a safe place cheers mate ,

[@AndyJarman]

A real sail fest that one. Spent most of the time marveling over the rigging of all those boats. And wondering at just how you manage camera placement while dodging rocks! Thankyou.

[@philotown]

Thank you Roger, for another well filmed and very well edited video. Absolutely enjoyable as usual.

[@AndyJarman]

Abbey looks like she's experienced in modern racing dinghies, obviously understood what was going on more than most.

[@sumobear2031]

one of your best blogs ever, liked the part when you followed the Pilot cutter through the rocks

[@petemacfarlane6478]

Thanks again Roger. Further examples of how the world should be.

[@michaelmcclafferty3346]

I love the simplicity of the design of Avel Dro.

[@kgilliagorilla2761]

……and no capsize! Well done. Wonderful footage of beautiful boats.

[@brucebrown9604]

Great footage with many interesting boats, like the Belouga in Camaret. It’s a blessing to be able to sail in such a seascape and in those conditions! Thank you for sharing! 😎

[@donsilsbe6134]

What a wonderful collection of sailing events. I’m looking forward to attending a few this winter in Florida. And congratulations on rounding the cape safely.

[@stefanbattige7988]

I would really love to participate one day in the future with my own Penny Fee dinghy ! Had once the honor to participate as crew member ( guest ) of the Sant Efflamm (medieval leather boat)!

[@latesailor1350]

Never disappointed with your videos, Roger. This is another great one! Looks like much fun!!! The sound quality of this video seemed sharper than usual. I loved the way we could hear the water along the hull when you were passing between the rocks. Excellent sound quality!!! Thank you for taking us along!!!

[@RogerRoving]

Thank you! I have a constant battle with sound quality.

[@firebird2]

Hello from the Great Lakes! Roger, you are more and more at home! What a beautiful voyage you are on, thank you.

[@latesailor1350]

All your videos are fantastic, but 10:30-14:55 of this video is absolutely superb!!! You’ve outdone yourself. Great film-making! Thank you, Roger!!!

[@RogerRoving]

Tell everyone that, please! Loads of people seem to be put off from watching this by the French title!

[@robkunzig5795]

no no, watch up to 15:15, don't miss that magnificent jibe up to the pontoon/dock!! The man with his girl sculling (in the background) can't take his eyes off of Roger! Nicely done - it's what we all want to do but many haven't the confidence. Much like at 20:50 - 22:15 in Avel Dro in Vince! -- Bravo --

[@paulthew2]

It's a great feeling to see you have posted another video, and as always, it was so good. Love your tacking, and that all you need is one sail.

[@richardaber4299]

Really wonderful Roger and it seems that all is back to normal once again. It’s so nice to see all those beautiful little boats in that place. Thanks for your efforts in bringing a piece of it to us.

[@robstevens5503]

Thanks, another great video. The start with all those boats clustered together sailing was just stunning.

[@romantiachristiana5147]

Nice one, Roger. Yes, I was one of the people trying to stop you getting into Lanvéoc before beaching. I then left you in peace.

[@wayfarerchris.4116]

Another great video Roger, looks a beautiful place to sail especially with all those lovely boats sailing with you. Hope Abigail enjoyed her first night boat camping 👍. Thanks for sharing 😊.

[@graeme-sailingskeptic]

Some fabulous sailing Roger - thank you. Amelie Rose what a lovely boat! A cutter?

[@ianseddon9347]

Thank you for your lovely film, beautiful pictures of a lovely place, peacefully ‘making miracles!’

[@arnefagerstrom1953]

Thank you for a great film. As an old sailor have I notised that you tackle for the mail sail needs to be hooked from side to side, suggestion instal a tube from side to side over the stearing so the tackle for the main sail can go automatickly from side to side. uicker and safer sailing. Thank again for your inspiring film! / Arne

[@RogerRoving]

It would conflict with the single piece lifting rudder though.

[@arnefagerstrom1953]

@@RogerRoving Hi again you might instal the pape so you can remove it before lifting the rudder. All the best /Arne

[@RogerRoving]

@@arnefagerstrom1953 I would not be able to remove the tiller - needs lifting to remove. Anyway, why is a horse an advantage?

[@mschmidt62]

I'd hate to see what people here would say about my leeboard....

[@Jmmondeau]

Great video as always Roger. Your channel is sure growing. I remember when we were few. Good job.

[@RogerRoving]

I wonder whether my videos are too slow though? Other people’s seem to have got faster, with much closer cuts.

[@Jmmondeau]

@@RogerRoving your style is what we like. That’s why your channel has grown so much. Don’t worry about the naysayers. Keep up the good work.

[@MrBrianc1975]

Brilliant video as always Roger. Watching from here in Poole Dorset

[@geraldtrumpp2340]

At the end of a bad day, your video made me smile. Thank you. Roger :-)

[@andybullock6848]

It was wonderful to see all the interesting boats up close.

[@topnobau]

Another awesome video Roger, great work, nice and relaxing, that said I had a bit of a laugh at the outrage in your voice when you saw the boat that nearly hit you last time, glad there was no capsize this time!

[@GrenvilleMelonseedSkiff496]

Another excellent adventure … well done! I like the stable horizon videos … very nice. Hold Fast! ⛵️😀

[@hodadyou]

Superb!

[@markkurtis8637]

Thank you, for taking us along.

[@gilbertdidier2782]

Quelles images splendides ! Bravo et merci pour ce partage !

[@pointnemo72]

Another lovely adventure! Thank you continuing to inspire!

[@Sail-Ride-Walk-Repeat]

Thank you, great production. Once again we see the dinghy equaling or bettering the speed, and perhaps joy of sailing, larger craft.

[@kathyowens9901]

This was very cool, lots of sailing and different boats, you looked like you were loving it, fuddy duddy little man my ass, your a real sailor.

[@gregwood3380]

Thank you Roger for taking us along on your adventures.

[@piotrn9309]

Helllo Roger. Fantastic video.

[@alvessail4718]

Roger you did I it again. Congrats. Good to see you sailing.

[@juliancripps1580]

Great. Great sound too.

[@okcantbelieveit294]

Certainly got interesting cruising grounds over there! Great as always!

[@davelawrence6777]

Good to see you back on the water

[@plymouthwelshboy]

Nice flotillas, enjoyable, thank you

[@nicksullivan480]

Love it. Never stop Roger.

[@quantenschaum]

How beautiful all these boats are!

[@richardredling3291]

A great collection of traditional sailing vessels. This was a very enjoyable video.

[@ildut4921]

Merci Roger! Toutes ces belles voiles sont magnifiques, et là caméra qui écrase un peu les notions de distances, ça donne des sensations quand tu croises les autres bateaux, également pour le passage entre les roches du tas de pois... Ton été 2022 a été rempli de très belles navigations encore bravo . 😎🙏👍

[@RogerRoving]

Effectivement le camera a allongé les notions de distance. Les roches sont beaucoup plus proches, mêmes les bateaux !

[@AndyCutright]

So gorgeous.

[@JeanLouisTeisseire]

Merci Roger , reportages toujours intéressants et canots magnifiques , la vraie belle marine traditionnelle !

[@christopherpeterson1400]

Great to see your videos..

[@DansKoiPond]

Great video again Roger. Quick question, how come you don't use a bridle for your mainsheet?

[@remyyamabushi1473]

Il me semblais bien avoir vu un bateau correspondant au votre pendant la fete des bateaux de douarnenez.

[@RogerRoving]

Peut-être c’était moi !

[@garrickmartin7707]

Nice one Roger. Boy, the French know how to build a pretty boat do they not? Cheers from Bridgetown West Australia. Just coming into spring. Time to go sailing once more.

[@joesambrano7634]

thank you so much, these videos are so good for my soul , 😎🖐💙

[@DavidD6969]

Very nice trip 👍

[@francotouristo2603]

Beautiful video

[@lecossais644]

Absolument magnifique !!

[@pakde8002]

Thanks for the video. Earlier today I saw a small Balinese outrigger canoe with a sail the same color as yours. Don't often see traditional boats here using sails these days even though they're designed for sail, except for the annual race in East Bali that's really fun to watch.

[@alvee264]

Another wonderful adventures, thank you.

[@williamschroder2898]

You have tough skin for reading some uncool and some insanely repetitive comments, I hope. Your videos are very special to this Georgia USA ancient mariner! Please stay the course!

[@bosse641]

So many beautiful boats 🙂

[@eog0579]

Fantastic

[@whitecap308]

Nice video. I enjoyed it very much.

[@jean-francoisterursec1200]

Merci very beaucoup, Roger

[@michaelpaul1397]

Looks like a lot of fun!

[@Sergeymurano]

what kind of gaff sloop is it at 2:18?

[@rossbarnett3759]

Well done Roger, keep it up looking very spritely, and don't worry about comments of jealousy cause that starts to come when you get a bit famous.

[@damoog5985]

Beautiful! Do you have any tips on gybing an Ilur in fresh breezes? Thanks for another great video.

[@hwood9783]

Magnificent.

[@matthewgwinn6076]

great video as always... but please add some musical variety...

[@LNM0000]

Sailing between those two rocks le tas de pois... F that !! I'd have gone round 🙃

[@bonviv]

nice one

[@WavingNotDrowning]

Great video as usual. What do you use to keep the horizon steady when filming in a bouncing boat?

[@RogerRoving]

Modern GoPros do it all by themselves!

[@WavingNotDrowning]

@@RogerRoving I thought that might be the case. Thanks for the confirmation. Keep up the good work. Having watched all your videos multiple times, I was inspired to buy a Paul Gartside Yaquina Bay One-Design oak and mahogany 14 footer lug sail day boat. Happy days.

[@DominicNSX]

Use two bungee cords to keep your tiller in the middle while preoccupied by other things!

[@rapido2963]

He usually does.

[@Tearlaich64]

If you look carefully under his tiller there is a Huntington helm impeder installed. A very simple and elegant device.

[@sailingcitrinesunset4065]

What distance did you travel?

[@jctothel]

Another fucking excellent little video!

[@redoleary4]

Honest question, why are sailboats constantly on a collision course with each other? It's like a giant game of chicken out there.

[@RogerRoving]

Exciting editing !

[@aliasAF-j9r]

Mr. Barnes, your friend Abigail seems not to be very familiar with a sailing vessel. Ms. Dooley, on the other hand, knows her ropes, obviously.

[@michaelhouseman2970]

What's the music?

[@RogerRoving]

Everything is in the video description.

[@b.loedsinn4110]

Loved the video, as always. Also, have been meaning to ask: what is the music? Jim Stark

[@mschmidt62]

MUSIC Footprints in the Sand - Roots and Recognition featuring Melanie Bell - from Epidemic Sound

I know there is safety in numbers. but I think after see this I would sail alone.🤔🤔

[@machismo4256]

Amerly Rose. That's the British for you.

[@ButterflyMatt]

As I Yankee, I can attest that Englishmen point with their middle finger because the index nail is blackened by some other chore.

[@ButterflyMatt]

Top notch video and sailing. Thank you, Roger.

Jour de fete? Non ! Ici "les Vacances de Monsieur Barnes", n'est ce pas?

[@martyjames6204]

In my next life i want to be Roger

[@jonathansimmonds5784]

Typical, you see it everywhere, the bloke standing around being 'captain' and the little woman doing all the hard physical work, 14m 30s, female sculling..... Nothing changes, in the mid 80's I lived in a house overlooking the Royal Cornwall YC, the number of boats picking up moorings with the boss bawling out orders to the 'wife' on the foredeck with the boathook..... I'd make the lot of them watch the film 'Dead Calm'....

[@RogerRoving]

Or maybe she wanted to scull.

[@davidlacey146]

Don't you dare feign bewilderment when your crew sets you loose in a teacup! Acting exasperated at her slowness to figure what you want is classic passive aggression. And ,if you are going to grunt and complain every time you switch your main sheet block from side to side, put in a traveller. My friend Sam tried to explain who you were to tell me he watched some of your videos. I said"Oh!Little Fuddy-Duddy Man ?" "Yes! That's him!"he replied. Now to achieve some balance; I love your boat and the places you go are gorgeous and your knowledge of them is expansive. Just remember that an angry woman might might find a novel use for a fid,say marlinspike shemanship.
