God made the choice to make you two as father and daughter. I cannot think of another channel that makes me feel so welcome and comfortable. Thanks

Caitlin (Kaitlin?) seems very comfortable on camera considering she doesn't make videos of her own, she seems to know exactly what you have in store and is never stuck for words. It's always nice to see her smile !

[@bobstienke178]

Distancing yourselves from the masses is not a bad idea! Cruising around the beautiful scenery is just a extremely pleasant byproduct of seeking your safety! Be careful out there Peter! Stay comfortable!

Let's not get comfortable with the world problems, do what's right to contain this crazy virus and we hope you, yours friends, family and world are safe and we will get thru this, remembering " the greater the conflict the more glorious the triumph" . Thank you for the few but precious time we watch you each and every week.

What the whole Covid-19 episode is shown up in stark relief is the fact that the world is not prepared for an episode like this. Most of us do not have a direct experience with a disease that can take a lot of people out. It has also pointed up what is important to us as individuals. Worst in all this is the way a huge number of our fellows live such a tenuous existence. Stay safe Peter

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

Thanks Stephen, well put

[@guy.h]

Thanks to all the Patreons for allowing us real-time access. Stay safe & comfortable aboard MV Zephrus once you cast off the lines - if the weather stays like that then I think self-isolation will be most enjoyable

Great episode as always Peter. Boy, you're a multi talented guy! Made a cooler yesterday, took all day, about half the size of your propane box. You put a lot of editing into these episodes to show the progress. I have even more respect for all your efforts now !

[@hallowther9735]

It is comfortable sitting watching your videos and seeing the progress you are making . I loved the song , both the short and full version. I am closer to the ICW but I have 20 years on you and need the boat. But, I am not giving up if I follow my family, I still have 20 + years left. Sill like the lines of the Monk cruiser. All the best and stay well, Hal

Cruising sounds like a fantastic way to self isolate! I'm not at all comfortable with your daughter flying just now, but it is wonderful she was able to visit!

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

I wasn't comfortable with her flying either but she's safe back at school now.

[@msweaver2]

Hi Peter: Keep them coming. Your recommendation about the Bahco scraper was spot on. I've been using it for 3 weeks and I'm still on the first side of the blade (it's double sided). Also, keep an eye out for a 49-foot 1955 Monk named 'Paramour' that is apparently moving to Victoria.

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

Aren't they awesome. I'll keep a look out.

[@kennylaxague5528]

Ha ha - Thanks for the song, I needed a good laugh. It also makes me happy to see that you trust us enough to sing in front of us. But don't quit your day job! I will cast no aspersions at PL Premium - I built my first boat with it. It still floats 10 years later. Safe travels.

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

Thanks Kenny

[@Fifties-kidat-themovies]

Hey there Captain, oddly enough I was sitting in a very comfortable lounge chair at Canadian Tire in their patio furniture section the other day imagining it, and myself was admiring the view from my new boat! Well at least the new used boat I've been dreaming about buying when I retire at 65, which just happened today actually ;)

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

Happy birthday and keep that dream alive.

Travels With Geordie I’ve watched all your landy videos from back in your Riverport Rover Days. They’re some of the best videos on KZbin in my opinion. 88 in a day is pretty famous here in England! I have a ‘58 88” and I’m currently working on a Twin Turbo Rover V8 conversion for a ‘74 109. Keep doing what you do, and thanks for replying!

Peter, for me I feel if you can take the time to record, edit and upload a video I will watch all of it. It might be uninteresting but it is still part of the refit. I'm not caught up yet but getting close. Take care, stay safe and work on.

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

Thanks so much John.

Hope your heather beer makes you comfortably numb for a little while.

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

Thank you, it did give us a short respite....

[@TheConradChannel]

Hey peter. The self isolating thing sucks , as does the panic buying but at the moment , in the western world that is a supply chain issue . You’re definitely a smart enough man to know that but I wish more people with a decent social media platform would say it because all the foolish posting of pictures of empty shelves etc just feeds peoples fears. Anyway , I love the idea of you and your buddy going cruising. Wish I could do it too

[@malliz1]

Stay safe mate

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

Thanks, you too.

[@mb97355]

My wife and I were planning to cruise to and around your neck of the ocean this summer. I'm going to keep prepping the boat and see what happens. We may not be allowed to cruise anywhere this summer so backup plan is cruising/fishing locally. I've always wanted to see BC/Vancouver Island from the sea, though.

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

I hope things work out for you Mike.

[@colinnorthcott9219]

Great video thanks. Rovers, boats and music. I am impressed. You can probably relate, I am getting ready to put in the crank in my 2a landrover engine and having many anxious moments thinking about the crazy rear seal...I know, anything to take my mind off of Covid-19 :-). Keep up the great work.

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

Ahh the crazy rear seal, better to trim it taller than too short. Thanks for the kind words.

[@grahamm2015]

I enjoy your videos great fun. I have no idea were you on planning on cruising too, but in the UK there a number of stories on people travelling out of cities to the countryside this is causing division and non to complementary comments. Take care what ever your plans

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

Thank Graham, I'm aware of these risks, we will cruise in total isolation. This coast is a gift of endless islands with safe coves and inlets, we will certainly not be a vector.

I haven't checked in with your progress in some time .good to see thing's are going well . The boat looks very nice , so much hard work , time , money , energy , and love for that old rig good on you , I'm on my rig in Florida people are out and running the river to the Island's heavy . Beaches are closed but they tell us the sidewalks are safe and the jogging walking path' s are also safe and the virus apparently is only dangerous on the sand and after 10:00 in the evening ✌️As I said I'm on my rig and feel bad for others , very easy to be quarantined when you love the water and your boat. Good luck to all from Florida 🌴⚓️⛵️😎🍻

[@omegaseamaster1550]

Its Beer-Thirty and if it is cold and wet it is most drinkable. Word of the week comfortable........ Nest Week wow : cocked bill

[@spymaine89]

hate gas; maybe '' popular topic. The heat output from an Origo burner vs. a propane burner is not that different. In a recent test I did, it took 4:15 min (alcohol) vs. 3:35 min (propane) to heat a certain amount of water in a pot. In reality the difference is small. However, both solutions are expensive. Origo stoves cost a fortune and installing a propane system is not simple either. If you cook occasionally, I suggest you go for alcohol. The benefits are safety, there is always alcohol on board (either for projects or you can even use drinking alcohol if denatured runs out. Now if you run our of drinking alcohol on a boat, then you have much bigger problems , and when not in use there is no fuel in the system as the alcohol evaporates over a few days. If you cook frequently, then alcohol gets expensive and you are better off with propane. Whatever you do, please install a proper, gimballed, stove/burner inside the boat. If you want to use portable gas canisters, leave those for the barbeque on the rail. Just take my word for it, it is not worth arguing the point.

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

Thank you, all good advice. I've used Origo stoves on previous boats. And as you say for occasional use they're great. These boats are homes, Complex, multi burner cooking, oven and broiler. I am wary of propane too but accept that with full system integration it is safe. We have new Force 10 marine stoves, integrated sensors to shut off, all new and certified installation. I'm not at all concerned.

[@nicholaspappas9712]

My only concern that propane sinks and will fine the lowest part of your boat. I know you have the tanks outside so hopefully the propane will disperse in the wind before it fine a way in to bilge. I know you know this but, I did not hear you talk about it. Also I know I’m a year late! 😀

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

ahh, not to worry. watch on, locker is properly vented down and out.

[@TravelsWithGeordie]

Errr, the fo'c'sle is currently storage and will likely be for a bit.

[@alainmoran8560]

I'm guessing that stuff you used is gripfill ... great stuff so long as you NEVER want to take it apart :D I would however be inclined to drill some holes in that box to encourage air flow ... if the gas leaks and there is no ventilation then it becomes a fuel-air bomb ... normally I'd suggest holes at the bottom to let the gas fall out, but that could turn the bilge into a fuel air bomb :o

[@robertcoates2911]

Agree with Walter P Curry below - aren’t gas vents a legal requirement? Keep up the good work and keep safe!
