Solent Sailing - Granny Annex

Ep 50 - Dave O attempts to be happy as he gets a major new upgrade to Cool Runnings

[@robertclarkson5101]

Most impressed with Dave's colour sense, cups matching upholstery and canopy matching shooting jumper. Granny annex bellissimo😊

[@LeeShoresLazyJacksandLunches]

Hi Robert, don't forget the matching green algae

[@davidoliverinsights1]

Robert you are a man of goos taste you are very very welcome on MY channel

The box of tatt … 😂 dad 🤦🏼‍♀️ I’m so embarrassed for you!!!!

[@SailingSweetMadness]

The binge comes to an end. I've seen them all. What an enjoyable ride it's been. You guys are easy to love. Looking forward to the next episode.

[@LeeShoresLazyJacksandLunches]

Ha ha. Madness by name and nature.

[@brianjoetaylor]

My new favorite sailing channel. Always good for a few laughs with these guys taking shot after shot at one another. So fun!

[@LeeShoresLazyJacksandLunches]

Cheers Brian

Great video as always and like the new canopy .Nice to see Dave O smiling and not grumpy it must be the new canopy . .

[@LeeShoresLazyJacksandLunches]

As well as the great company Shakes.

[@Sailing_Antrice]

Splendid tent. Big enough to hold a village fete in. You will really enjoy the windage in a blow. Very jealous!

[@LeeShoresLazyJacksandLunches]

More like a big top with a couple of clowns Hillary.

[@davidoliverinsights1]

Hilary you have no idea it's exhaling walking round the things climbing in and out utterly exhausting AND people keep gawping

[@Sailing_Antrice]

@@davidoliverinsights1 gosh it sounds traumatic. I really feel for you. I had no idea. Do be very careful to try and hide the enormousness of it because I believe the Home Secretary is looking for cheaper places to house migrants and you may find Cool Runnings permanently moored in Portland Harbour while she learns to spell “backlog”

[@davidoliverinsights1]

@@Sailing_Antrice If things get tight we could consider that I suppose

[@Sailing_Antrice]

@@davidoliverinsights1 well it’s not all bad, English Heritage at the fort in Portland harbour do an excellent cream tea which is worth reviewing. But I know what you mean. My favourite value range biscuits have gone up by 50% in a week. So given that my boat is kitted out with red lights I am thinking of opening a brothel. But I am not sure because if people can’t afford biscuits how will they afford broth?

[@j.t.s.3982]

Gratulation Dave for your cockpit tent - very nice. There's still something else to eat than cheese sandwiches - congratulations! In order to beat Nipper's cooking skills, it still needs little practice.

[@LeeShoresLazyJacksandLunches]

You make a good point. I feel a bit bad now. At least it was a bit different from a cheese toastie. He was trying.

[@j.t.s.3982]

@@LeeShoresLazyJacksandLunches Please do not! "I feel a bit bad now." You two yachtmasters are doing a very good job. You both laugh honestly and it's nice to watch Dave & Dave. The running gags are great! I learn a lot about your sailing live.

Tx JTS and thanks for the positive comments on my careful provisioning every every very trip

[@fionawinter2382]

I can say that that is a nice extension you have added to the boat Dave. Did you apply for planning permission? Looks like a fab place for the next Beaulieu river mooring holders annual party and bbq- joking as ide great video as usual- where are all the comments from Tommo and the guy in Japan and Fairweather sailor friend- cant remeber his name? I have just bought those posh fenders for my old girl ,that are made in france- the FENDERTEX ones- very expensive but saves space, if i had a Granny annex like Dave it would not have been an issue! Also wanted to suggest getting a rooster for an alarm- never fails and is great in a pot for Sunday roast when you get tired of it!

[@LeeShoresLazyJacksandLunches]

Ha ha. So many great ideas Fiona. Look forward to discussing them and many more later in the year. We should be due an update pick on that old girl of yours really.

[@davidoliverinsights1]

We need some pics Fiona

[@AndyUK-Corrival]

Lovely enclosure Mr O, somewhere to keep,snug 8n your old age 😂. Btw any reason for using the guys at Birdham where you also got your bow thruster done? Was it a good price compared to others, or a recommendation? Just curious as I might need to get some canvas work done. Let’s hope for a good seasons sailing. How about a meet up somewhere in the Solent? I bet there are a few who would be up for that. Cheers. Andy UK

[@pete9501]

Nice canopy, but why does the water have to come from a plastic bottle? Don't Beneteau's have water tanks?

[@LeeShoresLazyJacksandLunches]

Fair point Pete. But I am not sure I would want to drink out of the tanks on that filthy Beneteau. Hope you are well.

[@pete9501]

Yes we are fine and just installed more solar, we are slowly going electric cooking. Had quite enough of Calor gas, their not getting a Christmas card this year 😡

[@davidoliverinsights1]

@@pete9501 Yep have just rung Floras you can get 4.5 kg's new bottles £38.50 + vat regulator £14

[@davidoliverinsights1]

I used to drink from water tanks direct but got a wee infection a couple of times so since then for drinking bring water from home re-using the bottles

[@SCCFORUM]

That looks great guys. Do they fabricate the frame as well? Cheers, Paul.

[@LeeShoresLazyJacksandLunches]

I believe they use a local fabricator on site Paul.

[@SCCFORUM]

@@LeeShoresLazyJacksandLunches Thanks Dave, I have just looked at the site and they do that service. I am thinking of getting something made for my little Drascombe.👍🏻⛵

[@brianjoetaylor]

I have a request. Dave is always sipping on something throughout the videos. I'd really like to know what he's drinking. What is the brand of tea, coffee or gin, etc? Also, what are your favorite brand/beverages? If you each prefer different brands then why is your brand better? (yes, there could be some instigating here) Thanks for sharing!!

[@davidoliverinsights1]

Brian this is the first good idea you came up with I insist we get trying various bevvies. Josh AKA Nipper buys me some really nice coffee bags I'll get him to post them on here. otherwise Tetley's extra strong tea bags and Taylors Lazy Sunday coffee bags.. we both enjoy single malts Octa more and various gins including Hendricks Bombay and always fever tree Tonic med

[@brianjoetaylor]

@@davidoliverinsights1 And how do you take your Tetley's? I want it to be just right. I know that a man of your highly refined tastes has it dialed in to perfection. LOL
