Sailing Tasmania

[@texanranger7212]

Am actually devastated ... I have been following you for years and missed a chance to meet. I have had many beers and meals on the same balcony you were on. Cheers from Greg, Beauty Point.

[@bobbuilder5362]

Detroit sound tracks save the day !

[@supershane1960]

Love the relief recording of Renko running. Saves having to listen to all those slapping sails… Great video Stu, looking forward to the next one. Cheers for now mate… 👍🏻🙏🏼😎

[@DangarMarine]

Thanks 👍

[@mpfla8095]

Nothing beats a well trimmed boat especially when your close hauled. Thanks for the great video

[@DangarMarine]

Glad you enjoyed.

[@rudywoodcraft9553]

"couldn't stand the sound of his sails"--great video thanks

[@scottbeattie6645]

Another awesome video Stu. Thanks for taking the phone and keeping us all entertained. Very much looking forward to checking out the rescue boat video when you have time.

[@DangarMarine]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@markolav70]

Nice mate...will watch now as bored at worked and this looks much more exciting

[@MattKellyFishing]

Cracking little adventure mate!!

[@sanitymaintenance1585]

Great Video !!! Nothing like you and the sea ! And that's it !! There's no words for it and it can't be explained !!

[@townsville69]

Nice part of the country.

[@walkerholder9765]

I about choked when I heard the engine drone!! Well done sir!!

[@samwhitehead7695]

Thanks, Stu, Its Usual fun, Well done. Cheers from freezing Cairns.

[@heathwellsNZ]

"...brought my own recording along." - Hahahahhahaha

[@graeme-sailingskeptic]

It's good to know that you know how to do the other type of boating too. But as you so eloquently said it also involves rain, spray and mayhem.

[@Baystateboy125]

What an exciting time! I’m jealous!

[@tmautos-surrey-sussex]

Really lovely filming and thoroughly enjoyed the banter between you 3 , happy motoring from Cornwall . Uk 🇬🇧

[@sidvak9700]

Just when I was getting impressed at Stu's seafaring versitility on the water with no steel beneath his bare feet, he brings out the Renko tunes!

[@AM-ni3sz]

I would love this. Live the dream.

[@lpd1snipe]

Beautiful scenery. I've been to Sydney a long time ago 1970s in the Navy. Saw the Opera House. Never got to see much of anything else especially Tasmania. Watching your videos definitely makes me miss the water.

Sailing around Tasmania. Bummer of a life you got going there Stu.

[@steveshoemaker6347]

Thanks mate it always good to see one of your fun video's.....Shoe🇺🇸

[@DangarMarine]

Glad you enjoyed

[@BlitzcastFishingNewCaledonia]

Thanks for sharing that trip. My fam live in tassie and ive never really seen tassie from the sea except a quick seal excursion! Great looking place. St helens known for great fishing grounds ! Cheers

[@DangarMarine]

Glad you enjoyed. Definitely a beautiful part of the world.

[@Swataia]

Aye, nice to see a boat made in my home country so far away on the other side of world sailing just fine.

[@ImnotChuck.]

I see you made a stop at the Ugly Sweater Shop, and everyone stocked up. Daisy enjoyed bluffing the parrots; fun to see her and Daffy.

[@scharftalicous]

Lifeboats!!! Thank you for sharing that journey. I thought it was quite obvious how many qualified skippers were on the boat, smooth sailing other than instantly remedying an engine trouble which would probably have the average Joe pulling into the nearest marina to abort the mission.

[@DangarMarine]

You're welcome Phillip!

[@desolatemetro]

Very cool. Good to see you do some sailing. Got the legit sailing beard too. 👍

[@DangarMarine]

I don't mind the odd sail. Shame we had the wind on the nose the whole time.

[@thisnthat3530]

Can't wait for the release of the full Renko album. 1800RPM is my favourite track.

[@TasmanianViking]

Good to see you down my neck of the woods.

[@vindivergilio3482]

Ahh..being on the water. Nothing like it. Gonna spend the weekend (hopefully) doing it, weather permitting. In the upper 70s and sunny all week, but as usual, they are calling for low/mid 50s with scattered rain this week end. I don't care, boat is being put in the water this weekend.

[@DJohns-nz4ul]

Nice video, I particularly liked hiking the hot spot up the mast for better reception I'll have to remember that. 👍

[@SirDavothe2]

You were in my neck of the woods! I was in yours not so long ago and though of you. I would love to circumnavigate TAS one day. Only a couple of problems, I don't have a boat and can't sail...

[@bobuncle8704]

The blue boat was cool. I’ve not seen another vessel with wing stabilizers, other than Brupeg

[@KS-on9qp]

Well Done !

[@SidKneeGeo]

Looks spectacular !

[@blakelieschke14]

I’m actually restoring 44-004, the sister boat to 003 lifeboat. Can’t wait to see the vid on that!

[@DangarMarine]

Nice one!

[@Belzediel]

Y'know I didn't really expect you'd end up down south enough to hit Tazmania. Uncle Cosmo loved Tazmania. He'd head down there every year or two to go visit his mate 'Randy' Shilogh Kincade and get up to mischief. I recall one year Randy had a couple of jetskis sitting around doing sod all, so, the two of them had a few beers and settled on seeing what happens if you glue two jetskis to a canoe. Now, things might have been different if they'd picked a kayak. I'm sure all your viewers have a story that starts that way, certainly true for me. Anyhoo, they figured the main problem would be sorting out the controls, as the two jetskis weren't the same brand, or had the same engines and probably wouldn't behave. So, Uncle Randy's wife ran a small but pointless laundry service and as such she had a lot of plastic wrapped wire that she used as, whatchamallcaulit, drying wire? Dunno the Strayan, we call it dangler-string up here. So they rigged each jetski up with dangler-string so they could pull on the things and set the throttle and angles and all that jazz. First time they took it out they all fell out because it turns out two jetskis are quite heavy, and a canoe is not. They fixed this problem by adding a bunch of beer to the front of the canoe. It was, if I recall correctly, about nine in the morning when the contraption was relaunched, Uncle Cosmo sat on the rear with both hands full of cables, and Randy up front hoping to steer. It looked promising to begin with, the bow wake fell either side of the engines and they soared out into the bay. trouble was no one had made sure those cables were properly attached and about a mile out they lost the throttle wire, and had no way to slow the thing down. Search and rescue came out damn quick, possibly because they had never heard of Uncle Cosmo, and tried to retrieve the thing, which they never managed to do, partly because they couldn't stop laughing at the high speed vessel shaped exactly like an eager man's wedding prow, but mostly because the lads had managed to accidentley ram a Spooner's Whale while it was stopping off for a breather, which had slammed Uncle Cosmo all the way up into the beer storage, and catapulted Randy over the entire pod. Cosmo got picked up by a fresh young lifeguard (not the first time), though he fought tooth and nail when it turned out he wasn't going to be allowed to bring the rest of the beer with him, and last anyone saw of Randy he was losing a fight with a pack of angry barracuda.

[@Chucky-b7v]

G’day Stu, welcome to my part of the world. Love Beauty Point I’ve had a couple of coldies at that pub.

[@bobbebbington5356]

The stabilisers on the crayfish boat are similar to Damian's .Nice video on a lovely part of Australia.

[@DangarMarine]

Yes they are!

[@assassinlexx1993]

Have you seen the treat of sucking oil out a crankcase. You use a shop vac put a 4 liter empty oil container inside the vac with a plastic tube that goes down the dip stick hole. Cut a top off a pop bottle with the cap. Drill a hole cap , pass the plastic tube though it and into the oil container. This will suck out the warm oil right into the container. Oh one big tip - don't over fill the container. Ask me how I know. Cheers from across the pond

[@jonnenne]

It's easier to buy a pump with self-containing tank for 40$ in my opinion

[@assassinlexx1993]

@@jonnenne Well that might be true but for a quick job for the lawnmower and it puts the old oil right back into the oil container. I am cheap too.

[@bikemessenger7]

so beautiful!

[@DangarMarine]

It really is!

[@creekmiata]

with the price of diesel a soundtrack is all a guy can afford.

[@bcg1976]

Skipped right past York Cove and straight to Beauty Point... This means you missed my motorsailer just out the front of George Town Yacht Club. It's got a 40 horse volvo/perkins in it as god intended. None of the red engine rubbish.

[@davidmurn772]

At 10:14, you said the rings were 1/8th of a mile, however the screen at the top right shows the rings as 1/16th. Looking forward to the lifeboat tour coming up too.

[@timjohnun4297]

Should have put some of your lures out coming up the east coast, it's home to some huge tuna around this time of the year

[@jonnenne]

Swans are my favorite boats. Might be due to the fact that they are built here in Finland :) I'd love one of those old ones in teal color instead of blue.

[@jimh.5286]

I have always wondered what those funnel things were for on the decks...Now I know, for empty beer cans and bottles!

[@DangarMarine]

Recycling bins!

[@oskarstenman823]

Swan 371, becoming the right size.. :)

[@tonymeredith6969]

You know you want to take on that project…

[@TheWanderfound]

Head just a little further south down Kanamaluka and you could've had all the seal footage you wanted: there's a fish farm at the southern end of Long Reach that always has a bunch of 'em hanging around the fringes. They'll come over and check out your boat if they suspect you're fishing.

[@AlisonFort]

Leftover rice! Lucky D-squad and friends😀

[@063317Art]

Brought you recording along 😂

[@soggybottom3463]

The end of the holy month of ramavan? Well that's a relief all round eh?

I would have organised a welcome party if I had known....

"Adrian knows everything!"

[@TimsWorkshopTJY]

Cool sailing video Stu, the young guy will draw in allot of lady viewers for sure. Haha Anyway, looking forward to seeing what you and Adrian do with the Trawler👍

[@rickturner7971]

Just like the Texas ranger I am just up the river in Lonnie , I too would have loved to meet you.

[@lesmansom7817]

Pack the jerry cans, we’re going sailing 😎🤘

[@McTroyd]

I think they were only motor-sailing that much to help you feel more at home. 😉

[@samwestoby140]

Do you ever try fishing when you travel

[@DangarMarine]

Rarely.

[@FistralG]

Interesting pronunciation of Launceston. Here in Cornwall, UK It’s pronounced lawnston.

[@TheCaptScarlett]

As a former resident of Cornwall it pains me every time I hear an Aussie pronounce Launceston as Lawn-sess-ton. Its Launce(s)-ton with a silent S. The town of Launce, Launce's town. Other than that great film Stu as always, incisive diesel diagnostics. Sunsets, dolphins and the sea 🌊

[@DangarMarine]

This is a different town, Launce has never been to Tasmania!

[@TheCaptScarlett]

@@DangarMarine you devils

[@BricoleurTV]

Nice to see some silent sailing for a change! What ever happened with you getting a proper job? Seems like there’s still a lot of spare-time for different cool projects!! 👍

[@ausshot83]

I had of known you were in town I would of bought some beers down I'm in George Town

[@hespie1]

Shame you didn't have a catch up in Beauty Point for your Tassie followers. Great Vid.

Stu......Are you back ???????

[@bloodyeyeful]

Beauty eh? Blessings all.

[@bobjoncas2814]

,,good one, keep safe..

[@HeidiSue064]

Yes please do the trawler it would be quite a treat to see Dangar Stu and Adrian the magnificent feeding hilariously of one another's witticisms only because they powerhouse between them a wealth of experience and a gift of expressing insight and observation. The makings of great YT content. And Brupeg will soon be in the water like Seeker. We need a new one.

[@malliz1]

Sailed right by my house at George Town dang would have loved to meet you

[@MrCrabbing]

She a Waverley class that lifeboat, steel hull and a couple of two stroke diesels?

[@DangarMarine]

This one had two CATs.

[@MrCrabbing]

@@DangarMarine I remember Alderney in the Channel Islands used to have one

[@gameon2546]

Bass straight crossing stu?

[@DangarMarine]

Eventually, boat is coming all the way to Dangar.

[@lawndog6218]

How long is the journey in beers?

[@DangarMarine]

About 209.

[@r1mein54]

funny that you wanted to 'sail by Detroit Diesel'

[@stukeegan]

Seems weird to hear you talking about the Tamar river on the other side of the world. Feels even weirder to hear you pronounce Launceston the way you do. Here it's pronounced as 'Lawnson' (or 'Laanson' if you're deep Cornish). Looked to be a great trip.

[@einfelder8262]

In Tassie it's Lonceston - lived there for some 17 years, still attached 30 years later.

If you would rather sound like a local, it’s “Lon-ceston”, not “Lawn-ceston”. Just so you know.

[@Neil.W]

I almost unsubscribed when I saw the word 'sailing'. Looked like a nice journey.

Don’t blame you! 😝

Is sailing just being on a boat someplace and wearing uncomfortable looking sweaters?

[@DangarMarine]

It's mostly about drinking beers and eating fresh oysters.
