Sailing Between Turkiye and Greece is Harder Than We Thought (& so is Med Mooring)

[@Valerie_Dawn]

I am absolutely gobsmacked that Nick knows about That Littlest Hobo show and the theme song too! It was a Canadian produced show that was I grew up watching. I had no idea it was aired anywhere outside of Canada.

[@ruston1450]

Totally got the Littlest Hobo reference. Now I've got the song stuck in my head;-)

[@deahelkcunklaer2180]

Never thought I'd hear a Littlest Hobo reference. Too funny

[@juliantrus4313]

Yes, I watched the show. It was a Canadian show .

[@larryyxz177]

Funny how a Canadian show, The Littlest Hobo, has such global reach

[@Valerie_Dawn]

Arguable more reach and far more popular than every CBC program ever produced..

[@wrbegley]

Things I didn’t expect today, Nick referencing great Canadian TV shows.

[@MichaelrennieG]

Some say that The Littlest Hobo is a great choice for fans of Lassie and Rin Tin Tin. Both The Littlest Hobo and Lassie feature dogs traveling from town to town helping people in need

[@rosiegirl3558]

Littlest HOBO still on Canadian TV weekly. LOL great content thanks for the laugh.

[@RedHeadAgent]

It's always great to start my Monday with RR2 and crew. Lovely episode.

[@ezone913]

Soldiers returning from WWII were given a "Homeward Bound" train pass guaranteeing free travel by rail anywhere in the USA. The army officials forgot to put and expiration date on the passes and some rode the trains for the rest of their life. Hobos. Now you know. 🤗 Beautiful edit. Thanks for sharing. -EZ

[@TomGillis-wx1wr]

Watching Nick take a drink of beer almost made me want one again. He really enjoys them! Very nice show, thank you

[@warrenpowell6570]

Cool 😎 episode! I enjoyed it very much. Thanks again for taking me along!😊

[@chrisellsay5480]

Med Mooring a cat easy (that you own....) 1. drop as much scope as you can so 60-70m for example in Chios 2. set the anchor and backdown hard at 15-20m from wall 3. continue releasing chain moving in with stern fenders 4. no one to help back against wall and hold in reverse while hooking bollards or rings, tie very loose 4. pull out from wall about eight meters with anchor 5. tighten stern lines with motors full reverse against anchor, should be as far from wall as paserel allows 6. put on a bridle for anchor chain (our spare bridle attached to midship cleats and attached to chain with soft shackle)(charter boats don't pay for a new windless or stern when Gypsy slips) 7. Tighten everything up. Sleep well! sv Stray Kitty

[@joevitaleconstruction.704]

So I watch 3 of these sailing channels… you guys seem to be doing it the best right now. Patrick and Michaela are the newbies, the Winns are stuck in boat repair purgatory, and you guys are just seeing the world… Keep it up! Beautiful place you are visiting, beer just seems to taste better when a boat is involved, either in getting to said beer location, or whilst on said boat. 🤣

[@marcellacruser951]

Gyros, a decent beer and a nice walk, can't ask for a much better a day.

Maybe tomorrow I'll wanna settle down.... Until tomorrow I'll just keep moving on

[@jeffhopper6860]

Doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo

[@SYSirius]

What a lovely episode. Thank you so much for sharing! ❤

[@theprivateers1]

I remember the littlest hobo

[@decanuses]

Loved that show when I was a child.

[@Smoginthesun]

I went from Cesme to Chios on a small ferry with my scooter in June. Nice to see you in the same places I was visiting.

[@harryb1745]

Yes, favorite dog tv shows, littlest hobo. & lassie..

[@davidjacobs5266]

Come winter in Cyprus after exploring Greece. We can recommend Ayia Napa Marina

[@jab5444]

Thanks for sharing

[@christianestories]

The mooring line system is everywhere in the Mediterrarian sea😊

[@HeadCannonPrime]

Gang planks. The cheap and dirty way is to get a 8-12 foot long 2x12 or whatever length will fit for you (sorry I don't know what they are in metric). When coming into port pull them up on deck and when you are backing in you just slide them back and down the steps. That gives you a way to walk way up or down to the concrete. you have to devise a way to counter balance them and then let it drop when you are close enough. If you want to get fancy, attach a rope so you can lower them slowly.

[@wallywombat164]

Excited ain't the word for it mate. Jealous, is more like it. ❤❤❤❤

[@chrisellsay5480]

You got the Tepai perfect but the bank transfer is very easy with a Wise account. Makes payment super easy for the Tepsi, Cotinth Canal and you will need it for every marine service business in Greece!! Have fun and maybe see you next summer. SV Stray Kitty

[@Chris97302]

I love the sea colors there. Nothing prettier!

[@decanuses]

Must visit in regard to the Greek islands.. Paros (Naousa) and Anti Paros. Beautiful place! Food, you must try the Greek fried cheese called Sagonaki 😋

[@jeffhopper6860]

I didn't know anyone outside of Canada got The Littlest Hobo... Lol. It's still aired daily in Canada's capital city! Lol

[@riddlerandsa8161]

Those four boat length have come to bite me once. Charteryacht without enough chain in an admittedly surprisingly deep port. Ran out of chain about 2m from the quay. Did it all over again 3 length from the quay...

[@gwinster]

We've all done it!😁

[@grotehenk203]

Ask around about the meltemi winds there. SERIOUSLY. Especially in the Cyclades. These come up fast and will bite you ! From nice sunny weather to Beaufort 8, (gale/ 35 knots) still sunny, in 10 minutes or less. You have to have harness / shoes ready, and be conservative with the sails. Guests cannot go on deck when it hits etc. I damaged a head sail twice! Only happened to me in the Cyclades 🙂 Very nice area though. Anchoring in Santorini is a bitch!😎

[@kostasvasilopoulos4468]

its harder due to north winds this month......if you like them come during June......Aegean winds are a little crazy this time of the year

[@fosterd8]

A passerelle might be the answer to get ashore whilst mooring although not sure where you would put one on your boat.

[@srgraham9172]

So where do we send the crayons? 🤣 y’all are so funny!

[@enderdragoon]

Maybe a dock line on a boat hook so you can use an extended pole to catch the bollards from the transom, kinda like an animal control pole.

[@allanedwards7756]

V wise getting agents at both Cesme and Chios. I kept my boat at Cesme for nearly 20 years and the faff of doing your own out and in yourself was always a nightmare. At Chios immigration would send you to customs first who would send you back to immigration eventually one would give in and stamp something then send you into town to pay, only to find the office closed! 100 euro at each end and suddenly no problem. Worth it in the end though.

[@americanbornwalkaway9110]

Beautiful

[@petermaroudas7323]

Bravo Nico......your great is excellent👏

[@gebi4pejo1]

I can remember the littlest Hobo too, must’ve been the ‘60’s now I am showing my age😂😂😂🇦🇺

[@WilOxfordshire]

Maybe tomorrow I’ll want to settle down, until tomorrow I’ll just keep moving on. 🐕

[@bradynixon8900]

Bureaucrats in my home country is now changed to the derogatory term Bureautwats. Mostly because they only appear work Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday hence Twat. And then because at times contemptible. 😂

[@g.dennisrobertson4970]

remember it well-!!

[@Lighthouse6b]

Carry a wide board with you.

[@clivestainlesssteelwomble7665]

Scaffolders plank ..or a Al step ladder with a ply board over the steps put some padding under the ends to stop noise if a swell develops. Lower and raise it with a couple of lines tied to the top rung. It's easier if you can route it via a cockpit rear roof attachment. Foot end against the top steps riser.

[@wallywombat164]

Sailing Holly Blue will be a fhenom er great source of info for you.

[@luc8832]

Have fun in Greece and beyond. Looks to me like you are going to need some type of passerelle…..…… But you have already figured this out…. Also surprised you guys don’t use headsets to communicate while docking or anchoring.

[@julesc8054]

We need to elect a chair for the committee to find the spelling of beurocracy. 🤣🤣🤣😂🤣🤣🤣😂🤣

[@gkkes]

eSim might make sense for you guys!

[@wxrtfan]

Thanks for video, your right beurockracy is hard to spell. I see sometimes cats on board. Don’t they run away when you’re tied to a dock? Thanks again ~ Steve

[@kylem324]

The littlest hobo was Canada’s greatest contribution to confederation.

[@methyleneblue4659]

Another bloody cat taking up space in the town dock ;)

[@MichaelrennieG]

Littlest Hobo no doubt a version of USA "Lassie"

[@danf3607]

I thought ‘Littlest Hobo’ was any Ausy show? (edit - I see below it was actually Canadian.) Then again, I’m sure Theresa is too young to know. Remember it fondly - together with flipper (US) and Skippy (definitely Ausy) 😂

[@wallywombat164]

I remember him mate. Hahaha.

[@ATARI_1962]

Classic Greek bureaucracy

[@wallywombat164]

Have you contactèd Sailing Holly Blue yet? ❤❤❤❤

[@jeffclarke1540]

Oh my God, my ears hurt

[@BoomVang]

Not a fan of kowtowing to the latest strongman-imposed name for Turkey. English has it's own placenames; Venice for Venezia and Florence for Firenza is not disrespectful. When I visited Leningrad I called it St Petersburg and now Russia has reverted to that. Nothing wrong with Spaniards referring to Nueva York because that is the privilege of their language.

[@chhindz]

Isn't that Espaniards.

[@N330AA]

Hahah, sorry guys i did skip ahead to 7 minutes

[@turtrubshaw]

Yes I do remember it but I would have thought your far to young to remember it. You even remember the tune. So maybe your much older then you look.

[@gailalbers1430]

i just really dislike how he describes Terysa „admiral“, „bleating“ - not cute at all.

[@srgraham9172]

🤣🤣🤣 Pretty sure Terysa is the one editing the videos (and doing a great job to that end). I’m also pretty sure she is a strong capable Australian woman. As we all know, Australians are known for their wit and being able to give and take grief all the same. So I would think that she finds “The Admiral” and “bleating” comments a little humorous, or I don’t think she adds that to the video. I, in particular found the Airport and Crayons segment funny. Having a little fun and jest with those we love, well, that just makes life a little better.

[@gailalbers1430]

@ Yes : joking around is great . I just have been hearing him putting down Terysa for a long time and it’s grating after a while. I believe that it also affects the partner after a while if it is constant . But maybe it’s just me & maybe Terysa likes it - she is the one that edits !

[@scottharrison2523]

She seems like hard work, needs all her meals and coffees made for her, sometimes the truth hurts.....

[@gailalbers1430]

@ there you go that’s what these little cutting words suggest that’s why i think it’s passive / agressivece. Exactly why i hate these little put- downs. They paint a picture of Terysa that you just showed . This is stuff that does not belong in a public video. I don’t know why Terysa puts up with this . But they’re both adults snd make their decisions for reasons unknown to me. But you don’t hear Terysa putting Nick down and painting a negative picture of him like he cunningly does with his little nasty passive aggressive remarks. Hey - normally i don’t comment on youtubers relationships( we really do not know what goes on - nor am I particularly interested in people‘s personal relationships. Nicks comments are just so constant and in my face . If he does nor want people , like you Scott, thinking negatively about his partner ( did they ever got married btw?) he should not make these comments about her publicly . and yes; I don’t have to watch them ok …

[@gailalbers1430]

@@scottharrison2523 also „Truth hurts“- If it’s true then they really need to work this out off camera - get counseling or something . It just is never cool to bring your relationship peeves out passive / aggressively in public . imho.

[@petermaroudas7323]

wasn't Littlest Hobbo" a Canadian production? I remember it well❤

[@toastfrenzy]

+1 for The Littlest Hobo, seems not all was well in the Hobo camp. A quick Google brought up this : “The dog actor is actually a direct descendant of London, the dog who starred in the original series.” London died in 1987 from a massive drug overdose. Not sure I want to know the details. Great episode, passerelle would make it easier for town quays on a cat, 100 mtrs of chain too as no getting distance wrong then. Can aslo pay out more chain (whilst motoring against sternlines oc) for the eventual crossed anchor's as oppsed to having to take up and re set.
