Sailing alone across the Coral Sea

[@AKAdevilsdandruf]

Barry it’s been a while more than usual 2 weeks I hope your ok mate….looking forward to another great video

[@rcgrizz]

Hey, first to post! Alright, Alright, alright! Always enjoy your adventures!

[@JohnDrummondVA]

Your vids are a treasure in my life, Barry. Glad you're OK and telling the tale.

[@Rottingboards]

That calm water part was absolutely beautiful. An old sailor floating his boat in the sky.

[@hatterassportmechanic5621]

Barry,Barry,Barry,Barry,we will always cheer you on mate.keep safe

[@ScotChef]

It was nice of those birds to crap on the boat then laugh at you, nature eh! Amazing 😂

[@micharsenault379]

Always a pleasure to watch your vlogs. What I enjoy is hearing you solo sailors talking to birds, seagulls and today it was the boobie birds.

[@mowhoknow5098]

Cliffhangers of an old sea dog more like it! Love the ending Barry stay safe stay calm and stay cool.

[@angelablackwell4711]

Shots of your yacht are wonderful. Your yacht is wonderful as well

[@susan304]

I ❤ everything on the boat has a personality. Barry, I have binge watched all your videos in the last few weeks. And have been becalmed for the last five days with no video. I have absolutely fallen in love with you and your journey. I wish you lots of safety. I think you’re hilarious. You remind me a lot of Robin Williams, our beloved, comedian in the US.

[@CristiNeagu]

When you're sweating a lot in the heat, remember to replenish your salts and electrolytes too, not only the water. Also, consider dumping buckets of seawater over you so your body doesn't have to sweat that much, but I'm sure you were already doing that. I said it last video, and I'll say it again: I am glad these videos are not in real time and that I know you somehow made it safely to land.

[@barbarianlife]

There is plenty of sea salt. Full of good stuff

[@CristiNeagu]

@@barbarianlife Sea salt has a lot of things in it that make it less than ideal for drinking.

[@lynndonharnell422]

Lots of electrolyte in beer, lol😂

[@jimfisk4474]

Barry, Vicks Salve or camphor salve, same thing are great for healing, put that on your sores and infections 4 cuts. I've used it a lot over the decades and it has served me well. Anchors Aweigh and thanks much Ole friend❤

[@allbushnocraft3031]

💯 under this kind of heat stress and physical work water will never replenish all you need no mater how much you drink cause it doesn’t contain all the elements you have lost

[@Fyn123]

Where is the old sea dog? Not heard from you for a while and hope all is well 👍

[@rolfpiotrowski4325]

Hey, old boy! Nice to see you made your power system running again! Have a good time!

[@3-DtimeCosmology]

The birds at the end was so funny! 😂😊

[@gregorm9183]

18:30 It is so funny how you try to reason with those birds instead of shooing them off , you are a kind soul Barry. Just like you were with Martin the Moth , May he rest in peace. You are living your best life mate , cheers to that !

[@tomw5907]

One of your best videos

[@lindafett1826]

It's been awhile since I've seen a video in my U-tube feed. Glad to see your well😊and⛵⛵⛵along still

[@donaldhoudek2889]

Bary, It is called a "Blocking Diode". Another GREAT video!

[@barryhannon5634]

"Fair sailing Barry"!

[@johnwillia339]

My Dad was on New Caledonia during WWII , He was there during and after Battle of the Coral Sea .

[@BirgitLindvig]

Barry, are you OK? Have not heard from you in three weeks.

[@bobsch-gd6ze]

Calm Seas and Fair Winds Barry, another interesting episode.....

[@ndl1776]

Great episode and eager to see what happens next!? We can't get enough of your Globe-Trotting sailing journey!

[@dale6349]

Conversations with a gull!!!

[@rileyuktv6426]

Barry are you okay? Hope all’s well…❤

[@SemperFido9915]

Loved the Monty Python type ending. Made me laugh out loud. Great video, Barry. 🙂

[@jackandcoke02]

Barry needs his own program on tv, like a Rick Steves type show. I love the sailing but once Barry’s sailing days are over it can be his next project. I’m sure the masses would fall in love with Barry’s personality/humor and storytelling. Someone needs to make that happen.

[@peterjansen7854]

Sunday 7 oct 5.30 iam sailing thanks😉looking at your video

[@TimErickson-oc6sd]

There was a old western movie SUPPORT YOUR LOCAL SHERIFF starring James garner Bruce Dean a really good comedy. James garners character was always on his way to Australia

[@burlatsdemontaigne6147]

Man Alive! The action on that guitar! I imagine the atmosphere plays hell with a wooden instrument.

[@timwilkinson2797]

That ending !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fantastic

[@hellohellohello6847]

Baz you legend! May I recommend you getting a suitcase generator. I went sailing for 3 years and bought a little Honda for grand and I wouldn’t go again without one. Been watching your channel since 5k sub. Peace. Phil gosport, UK

[@jamiemcdonald7283]

Wow , how quick time goes by, I remember when you were reported missing, doesn't seem that long ago, love your videos, God bless

[@TheSailingBrothers]

Thanks Barry. Brilliant

[@mikesherman8590]

Thank you, my old friend. I needed that today I've watched you for years.

[@rwess]

Headed for Bundy I see. That puts you back on my old sailing route. Good memories! - Have a Bundy Rum for me!

[@fredflintstone8048]

Compliments on troubleshooting and repairing the solar panel situation.

[@montyforster3370]

It certainly exemplifies the term...bobbing in the water... Thanks Barry for your always efusive manner. Cheers Mate

[@johnweedon8493]

Hi Barry , Hope you are OK, nothing posted for a few weeks now. Your video's are entertaining and educational . Keep them coming!

[@Sikeslikescars]

Heck yeah! Old sea dog bringing good vibes as always.

[@moejaime2654]

Barry you are my single handed sailing teacher and personal hero !

[@buzzart410]

Thank you!

[@Jcozz]

Water and salt and potassium at east that’s what I do when I am working in heat. We love you Barry take care!

[@tapan1937]

Alway good to see another episode of TOSD

[@standubaj8989]

lol love watching you,reminds me of my day boating/ sailing alone,you always win the argument 🤙😎

[@tlee178]

Always look foward to this!

[@J.Paul2023]

Another great video! You know what else is great besides water is dried seaweed that you can get all over Asia, look up the nutrients, its a real good energy booster! And what is really really great in the morning for breakfast is couscous which is easy to prepare, its more nutritious than rice! I fry some garlic and ginger in a pan in olive oil then add half a chopped red pepper and another half orange pepper, some chopped red cabbage, a bit of chopped green or regular onions and one chopped carrot (very finely chopped), finish off with 1/4 can of green peas. After its fried you then add a teaspoon of curry powder and a half teaspoon of garam masala powder and half a tea spoon of red chilli pepper and mix the couscous in (you boil half a cup of water with salt then put in half a cup of couscous once you bring the water to a boil!) These three curry powders are essential as you know to anyone crossing an ocean, always so great to have on board! Served with a fresh glass of orange juice on ice and coffee and you have a super breakfast that will fill you for the day! Hummus on bread is also great when you add chopped fresh chilli to it, fresh olives and green onion to it. I also discovered canned sardines with mustard sauce when I was in France the last time and absolutely fell in love with that if you can locate that on shore somewhere next time! Keep in mind as well that if you eat a bowl of salad before going to bed, yuo'll wake up refreshed as the lettuce cleans the blood in the arteries while you sleep! You should also try to turn off all electromagnetics whenever you can as they are VERY harmful to your body.. If you think about how they scan the ocean all the time, they go through your body and a lot of sailors fall sick because of it and don't know why, they develop chronic fatigue or tumors, vertigo is also part of that, as you are always fighting that radiation, it gets tiring!.. Look up this video "Dr Sharon Goldberg 5g Michigan state hearing" as well as Dr Paul Heroux at the same hearing, very good information about this! Also they do sell portable air conditioners that cool a room very quickly, you should look that up! By the way just put a plastic blanket there at the front so the birds don't crap on your boat, the poor little ones were tired and really needed the rest! Glad you made it through that nasty weather in the next video! All the best!

[@williammassartdiamondingen2649]

Don't forget to come and see our VDS Seal Crimson Tide when you get to Langkawi Matey, been following you since 2016, great videos always

[@3-DtimeCosmology]

Dark urine is possibly from not enough salt. It's counterintuitive but I'm not talking about drinking salt water. You do need enough salt so the body can absorb the fresh water you are drinking or you will dehydrate. That's why sweat is salty! And you need to replace BOTH! Half a teaspoon a day of salt or a shotglass of seawater!

[@winstonsmithsoul]

Love that becalmed footage, very Life of Pi.

[@richardmorley4223]

Lovely flat unbelievable that the sea of time can do that

[@EdwardSeatonSailings]

Thank you for your beautiful work. Your filmmaking is getting so good! You are a gifted storyteller ❤

[@guymanges3628]

Barry dancing with the sea and all maintenance... On and on...

[@iainlyall6475]

@3:36 i would almost like to go out into nowhere just to experience that. as long as i had water and enough food.

[@MikeLoveBuns]

Enjoying your sailing ⛵️ video! Mike from Missouri

[@richardweston4493]

Splicing Paracord (for your wind vane), is quite straight forward Barry. Good vids here on YT. Weavers of Eternity or Bored Paracord ✌🏼

[@GUNNER67akaKelt]

For a minute there I thought you left your boat, with the sails up. It was beautiful though. Take care, man.

[@adamhharbin]

I had the opportunity to sail 800 nm from Bermuda to the Virgin Islands, this really takes me back. Life doesn’t get any better.

[@thomastolson6713]

That was a lovely bit of video and also your watery eyes is called dry eyes and you need eye drops. I and a lot viewers enjoy all.

[@ebshaw5974]

Well done

[@davemurphy2020]

Nice one Baz my urine is crystal clear and loads of it I’m drinking plenty of beer and eating salad like a rabbit, and a tortoise. Stay safe matey!

[@markturner2646]

You Crack me up Barry your going 6-7knots and your saying I've got to slow down this runaway train ?? Lol !!!!

[@buzzart410]

Lots of good details!

[@dennismacdonald2003]

Tyvm Barry texcellent as usual

[@TheAtma50]

Oh Barry, This video tells me you survived. Please Stay Safe & Fair Winds!! ☘

[@kathmandoo]

Hi Barry. I think "Shaddy" is looking like she needs some attention. Will you dry dock in Australia?

[@antonynr]

Barry posted a Facebook update on the 26th Oct that said he is in the Timor sea - landfall in about 2 weeks - not sure if I want to see his next videos, as he's running out of toilet paper! 😱

[@medomak1]

Great episode and dramatic ending. I can't wait to see how it turns out.

[@mr.jennings475]

me and my mother met you in Palatka. Fair winds my friend and God bless your journey

[@jejewa2763]

You sound like tom hanks list on the island with his ball which became his companion and he talked to it as if it was human...great film.

[@danielw2152]

Berry every time I see you sailing I keep thinking if only you would let out your main more, you would be sailing much better. Easy sail trim tip to remember: when in dout, let it out! ie. with wind from the side the boom is almost all the way out by the shrouds.

[@petrichorfilms]

That last bit, channeling your inner Johnny Morris 👏brilliant stuff, i got quite nostalgic 😆

[@kurtism9040]

Loving the bird conversation.

[@windingroad9678]

Maybe see a doc when u get to Australia, unless you feel 100 percent better soon. Yes another cliffhanger love it ❤ Stay safe Barry ❤

[@spitfirered]

I Will Always Love Your Adventures On The White Shadow, Missed You And Hope More Videos From You Soon Barry, Thank You, Wendy

[@edwinflynn9744]

Hi Barry, I have often asked myself, "Why leave the Anchor hanging at the bow when you are mid ocean?' I hope you can clear that question up for me, Cheers Ed

[@sundeeradventures]

It's at its most constrained and solid location so it is better to improve the seating and tweak how it is secured

[@andrewbrown2063]

Because he might need it unexpectedly, when you need it you need it now; it is heavy, to move it below and back again is a lot of work if you are alone and takes time; you don’t want to risk dropping the anchor in the ocean during the move; you would usually only remove the anchor if you are sure of hundreds of miles ahead with no islands and reefs.

[@dale6349]

Stay safe Barry!!!

[@S.O.T.M.H.Y]

Wow incredible those shots of the boat on the water doesn't, even look real more like green screen.

[@petersoakell6950]

great edit Baz. Can't wait for the next)

[@LEGOWENTV]

Keep healthy! I enjoy your channel. Thank you!

[@dinkcirillo1025]

Hope you check in soon.

[@mikeraymond9088]

Virtigo...lie with a pillow under shoulders, head back, slowly roll head from side to side a few times. Crystals in ear got stuck. Need to release. Good luck.

[@oleran4569]

When the bird looked down at the deck, I expected it to say "Oh, we've missed a spot.". Immediately followed, of course, by another of the birds "correcting" the oversight.

[@ceeceety2320]

No one could ever say you aren't living life to the fullest! Even though you've already gone through the scariest day of your life, I'm anxiously awaiting! So glad to know you lived to tell about it! Am I shouting? Apologies. I get my point across with those exclamation points for certain! Take good care Barry!

[@alananthony2516]

Corrosion on connectors,particularly push together type, even invisible, can cause high resistance and burning aka loss of connection……safe sailing

[@csjmoore]

At 16:00 the winch set up was interesting. Liked the engine comment too. Thanks for this vlog - you are my goto vlog.

[@Niknteen1]

I got to sail through the Coral sea with Family, in the early 70's, Cairns to Lae, PNG and on.. It was not so calm.. Mountainous was a closer apt description.. I doubt I'll ever forget the mountains there.. Stay safe.. stay happy.

[@simonolsen9995]

Thanks Barry.

[@markamsterdam539]

Once again a very nice video to watch

[@clintbillton2161]

Love your funny bird friends :)

[@SailingonAnnecam]

[@itsmePassport]

The Coral Sea and Australia's Heaven on Earth

[@julestburt]

Loved the still shots of your boat floating with no wind....was just about to ask how on earth you did that...rather hoped you werent swimming off boat (with the sails half up!), but then you told me just as I was typing. Love your shows...thx for sharing! Watching from North Vancouver, Canada. Regards Jules!

[@spitfirered]

I Pray For Your Health Barry And May God Bless You Always, Wendy

[@UncleDuncan5092]

Been watching you for Years! Sail on, Old Sea Dog! Fair winds. 👍🏼
