I’m 75 in a month, never learned to sail, last year managed one day of the two day RYA beginners course but couldn’t face the second as the other students weren’t beginners…knew the jargon and had the basics already. I had none of that. I’ve contemplated buying a Mirror and just teaching myself through books plus trial and error (I’m basically non social!) but I don’t know if that’s viable. The camping part I’m experienced at and own all the ultra lightweight gear. That’s the part of this type of sailing that’s so attractive. I know of no other person that I’m more envious of than Roger. He seems to have carved himself out a great slice of life. And makes hypnotic videos too.

Man, all I watch is your videos. My wife and cruised for 5 years, 1991-1995 aboard a Pearson 35'. I bought a Mariner 31' which is a beautiful boat, made in Japan. I had planned to do some long distance cruising, Bahamas, Caribbean, etc. I just turned 73(it hurts to say it!). I went for a short cruise a year ago aboard the Mariner, which is a great boat. Refrigeration, solar power, etc. On that trip, after two days of deliberation I decided that I did not want to be reefing down at 3:00 a.m. in a gale. I had sort of scratched sailing and then YOU came along. I really enjoy your videos. I too like simple! The older I get, the more I like simple. All that being said, I am considering a Cornish Shrimper 19. and would appreciate your thoughts on that boat for a coastal camper. I also like your choice of background music on your videos. Fair winds. BTW, I thought about writing you because I saw your photo aboard a Shrimper 17 on their home page.
@RogerRoving
@RogerRoving 3 жыл бұрын
The Cornish Shrimper 19 is a very nice boat. My one word of warning would be, don’t expect to use it for trailer-sailing. They take about half a day to rig after launching. That’s why people tend to keep them afloat. The shrimper 17 is a better bet if you want to trail your boat somewhere new each weekend.

Dear Roger Barnes. I am a 52 yr. old Italian American male. YOU INSPIRED ME (more than any other KZbin channel) to BUY A TRAILER SAILER. She may not be a dinghy, but she's certainly a trailer sailer. She's a 1983 Tillotson Pearson Freedom 21 Nantucket style cat boat. She's a very beamy boat with a gunmount spinnaker, extra high coaming around a horse shoe shaped cockpit, no standing rigging, and has a carbon fiber mast pole. She has a 2 burner alcohol stove and a sink in the galley, has a forward V berth cabin, and sleeps 4 people. She was in a sad state of neglect when I found her, but I have spent thousands of dollars restoring her to her original condition. Hopefully I will sail her this October in Lake Erie. THANK YOU for inspiring me do something this RECKLESS and CRAZY in my fifties! 😄👍

Being a sailor of a small boat relieves me of a great deal of fuss but also allows me to go where the big ones cannot and that makes all the difference.

I do love to see your videos pop up on my page. They are very relaxing and have a feeling of escapism. I notice you still have the canvas tent and you have changed anchor up front from the fishermans to a plough? Not sure about the cheese on cake. That was a step too far. Well done and keep it going. I am now the proud owner of a 1971 mirror dinghy. Had a few bits to do including fixing two holes in the hull but hope for a maiden voyage this weekend. Thanks again.
@RogerRoving
@RogerRoving 3 жыл бұрын
Both anchors can be used interchangeably. I used both of them overnight, but ended up lying just to the plough by the morning, as I moved off the beach during the night (not shown in the video) and ended up lying to what had been my stern anchor. As that anchor was ready to deploy I used it for the rest of the day. It was a little more inconvenient, as the side it was stowed ended up under the sail each time the sail was lowered, but the other anchor was tied down and the rode stowed away. - Cheese and cake? Standard in Lancashire, where you would use tasty Lancashire cheese, but it works as well with cheddar. Try it. You'll be surprised.

I too love poking about for a few days at a time. I even took her out off Nootka Sound far out into the open ocean enjoying the big rollers coming in off the ocean. Most places I take Whisper the water is deep right up to shore. You are totally right having a boat you trailer to new places to explore is the closest thing to feeling alive in this mixed up world.

Hi from northern Japan. I really enjoy your videos, and not just those of sailing: the one where you present "a life of a rural architect" was quite interesting, and I hope we can be fortunate enough to have you share videos of any such projects undertaken in France. Thinking of Yi-fu Tuan's splendid tome, "The Good Life"... Thank you!

In this video I feel your task to get to your desired destination. As I enjoy your videos I can't help but feel what it is you have to do, to complete your wants and ideas for your video. This one has me totally appreciating your patience and peace to wait out the hours. You are amazing. I'm not you, but hope I can become more like you with with a greater inner peace. Thanks as always - R

The knit hat and the smock are great. I can only imagine what it must be like to be cold when sailing. Here on the Chesapeake an awning for shade while sailing is almost a requirement. And nights without heat, humidity, and bugs are rare. I have to move to Maine:)

Yes, we don't really get bugs round here, and I tend to forget they're a problem in other places. Midges can be a nightmare in Scotland though.

As natural as the tides and the weather, your soul is on the water. It is a pleasant thing, like a sunrise over a calm river backwater in the country, the sounds, the smells sliding by like you belong, at the same time quiet and uniquely making yourself known with every squeak, swish and bump. Your value is your rarity, the sweet lines of your boat gliding through. Hello and goodbye, it was good to see you again, Roger. Texas

Superb Roger. I am now enjoying sailing in the creeks of Brittany - albeit vicariously. Thanks for the trouble taken to provide these spellbinding videos and their interesting commentaries.
