when making Yorkshires the oil must ne red hot before you put the mix in

[@desbuckle6907]

Use very little oil to grease the Yorkshire's pan and warm it up before putting in batter. !

Nice video

[@rainfinger]

Great Video. Respectfully suggesting next time you do a dinghy patch, opening the hole large enough to get your finger in then insert a plastic-shopping bag, gluing the shopping bag to the inside then put your patch on the outside. This is a permanent patch, used on our circumnavigation. We were through Sint Maarten 40 years ago with only six boats anchored in the harbor, presently cruising the Bahamas. Things have changed.

[@pauljm59]

For yorkies the oil needs to be smoking hot before you put the batter in.

[@rl8992]

Thanks for great video, can’t wait to visit there feb 2023.

Dinghy names, Jibsea Ya, Jibsea squirt, Tipsea, Tiny Taxi

[@chaunceypennell658]

Call it LiL Jib

[@Samuel-vo4rr]

Nice idea with the dinghy name, I will jump right into it 😀... What about leaning it towards your sailsboats name Jibsea, like Jibcar, Jibby (little Jibsea) or Jibber (getting you to Jibsea). Or maybe another idea: "The dingh" Or maybe not lol, hope you enjoyed it 😁

Love those

[@davehogg9932]

I remember watching your first sailing episode. So beautiful. Maybe a name for your dinghy could be Autobus. Sending you fair winds safe travels from Chatham Ontario Canada.

"Patch" is a good name for an inflatable dinghy!

[@edaalvik7972]

I like the idea of incorporating your boat name into the dinghy name. Maybe Tiny Jib, or leaky Jib , Jibby or Jsea….

[@christophersutton7448]

How about Scooter or Scoot for the dinghy. A smaller way of getting around like a car.

[@randalsmith2713]

Careful, been a couple of Tiger Shark sightings were you at.

"Jib Pea" or "Jibster" Thanks for sharing your adventures and travels Also thank you for keeping it real I like and enjoy the pure honesty of your videos.

He podido ver en vuestros vídeos que acostumbráis a comer carne de atún y bonito crudo, está riquísimo, pero sabéis a los riesgos a los que os enfrentáis haciéndolo? En mi país se recomienda en caso de querer comer pescado crudo habe 5:18 rlo congelado durante un mínimo de tres días a -18 o 20° centígrados a fin de desactivar los parásitos de anisakis que pudieran estar presente, y esto es OBLIGATORIO para los restaurantes que sirven shushi.

Another fact French side is 220v Dutch side 120v Careful fishing close to shore there's a nasty virus you can catch from fish ciguatera, a girl from another Chanel caught it deathly ill

[@SailingJibsea]

Yep! We’ve had friends catch the nasty Ciguatera. We have our own little “test” before we eat fish prone to having it and so far so good! 🤞🏼

[@brianbell7117]

Your Canadian call it “the Beaver” or the Beav !!!

[@SailingJibsea]

😂🇨🇦

[@shanehickman9204]

I have a question maybe you can answer. I bought a dinghy recently and thought about getting chaps, but I saw another channel where they showed a lot of damage and leaks due to the salt water getting under the chaps and crystallizing causing the chaps to stick. Even my dealer said they’re a bad idea. I still want to find the best way to protect this expensive little sucker. Happy sailing!

[@brucefletcher6179]

Chaps are expensive to buy, tricky to make well yourself and yes, salt abrasion persists. I have cruised the caribbean for 23 years now and only lost dinghies to hurricanes. How? Rule 1, hypalon only. Rule 2, leave it alone until the rubber has dulled in the sun (1-2 years). Rule 3, paint with a GOOD water based paint from the rub strake up and into the interior, and use a waterborne antifouling on the lower tubes and hull bottom. No more UV degradation or salt abrasion. Rarely need to paint the topsides again for 10 years although it has happened more frequently when the wife wants a new coloured "car". I have never have had a problem with peeling (because I use only high quality elastomerics such as Ben Moore's Aura exterior semigloss). High heels are at your own risk, as are beaches with oysters on the rocks, for beaching good dinghy whelels are a lifesaver. PS - for hole repairs, always abrade the rubber (and remove the paint) with 80 grit sandpaper and then use XYLENE to clean and soften the rubber, then glue with the 2-part epoxy glue available for hypalon.

[@shanehickman9204]

@@brucefletcher6179 Thanks for the great info Bruce. Paint is an interesting thought. I planned on looking into wheels once I receive my dinghy so I can have a close up look to help me decide what type of mounting system it may or may not need. I'm sure my dealer can help. In regard to removing the paint for hole repairs would you use a chemical paint remover or just rely on the 80 grit sandpaper?

[@carrierserena]

I like the Dutch side much better

[@Da89soup]

I was there on a cruise ship years ago and the place was packed. Weird seeing it so empty! Who’s idea was catching your roast for dinner? Brilliant! Lucky some shark did not come up and take your dinner…lol.

Yeah huge difference! It was Travis’ idea💡😆

That’s a cute name! On the flip side, sometimes (depending where you are of course) we may not want others to know where it belongs because then they know we’re not on our boat

[@TheSwampdoggydog]

I believe you was trying to make what we call Yorkshire puddings. If you was then don’t use oil use lard instead and get it smoking hot before you put the batter in and quickly put back in oven and DONT open the door until 15 minutes has passed. I am a Yorkshire man and eaten them all of my 50 years
