As the use of Gary's car enabled you to show us so many extra views I would like to thank him as well. The wreckage was fascinating to see. Just imagine the work entailed in fixing all those planks to the hull with treenails. Thank you for another great video.

I only discovered this channel yesterday and have throughly enjoyed watching your vlogs and adventures. I’m Australian but of British and Scottish heritage so these are just wonderful to watch, and for some very strange reason, they stir something in my soul but I have never been there in my life. I now cannot get enough of these outer Scottish islands as it feels oddly familiar but also not familiar at the same time. Maybe I lived there in another lifetime, who knows. Just wonderful and so different from Australia. Thank you very much for showing these for those of us who are so far away but are fascinated by these stunning islands. Ps Gary is an absolute legend for lending you his car. I would lend you mine if you are ever in Castlemaine, Victoria. What a good bloke!

Just love the Scottish accent... and it's so fun to read all the Norse names in Lerwick, now when I'm "google visit" the city. What a beauty! Just the end name of the city "wick" is "vik" in Norwegian, meaning "bay" in English I think. We have many places that end-named vik here in Norway. And then we know what kind of "bay" the place has. Sanday (Sandøy) Sand Island. Guess it's a sandy island. Would love to visit the island and of course main land of Scottland as well. Keep up the good job Steve👍

What a Journey! And here I am, Orcadian and proud, an 85 minute ferry away, and I have not yet gone to see it. To my knowlege the plan is for it to be brought up from the shore and preserved then put in the heritage centre. The beach it washed up on is called Tresness, regarded as one of Orkney's finest beaches, which is saying something! A lifetime of exploration would be an understatement for Orkney, and I look forward to the next time you make the trip, as there are many more islands to be explored, no pressure of course!

Glad you got a bunk on the way home! Thanks for a fantastic tour. Fabulous beach, even better for the shipwrecks, and just beautiful all round. I loved the rainbow in Kettletoft harbour, that lovely cat in Kirkwall, and yes, lots of it. Thanks to Gary, too.

Kettletoft Harbour - don't you just admire the way all these small harbours are so beautifully constructed with dressed stone blocks? Good man, Gary, for lending you his car to let you (and us) see so much more of Sanday than expected. The wreck of the wooden hull gave me goosebumps, just to imagine it's history. Happy you had the comfort of a bunk on the return journey!

Yeah without Gary's help, I doubt I'd have made it to many of these places :)

Advantage of going out of season is the travel is nice and quiet, but down side is things are closed once you get there!

A classic Steve Marsh video! Great to see the shipwreck and to hear your classic comment: “there’s so much to do on this island” as you face locked door after locked door. Wonderful stuff.

Steve's quest for the Holy Grail of discarded wood from centuries past was pretty epic. The dog walker strolling by looked equally excited too. Well done! Surely they'll drag the wood ashore and make a picnic table out of it.

Lovely Steve😊 , I would love to get up to the Orkneys again just so much history and things to see I expect the shipwreck will give up its secrets in time with good investigation and become another piece in the rich tapestry of Orkney history .and I hope your video stimulates more interest in it.👍.

A huge thank you, to you and Gary. What an amazingly beautiful journey. Appreciate it must have been tiring for you,but again thanks for showing us . Have just read the Islanders of Sanday are trying to get interest in saving this piece of shipping history, hope they are successful, it could be as important as the Mary Rose.

Steve you truly are the best travel you tuber around. I don't look forward to any other videos on you tube as much as yours. Keep up the great work but also look after yourself as well, you looked shattered at times during this adventure. Gary - what a guy lending your car to Steve, such a kind gesture 👍🙂

As always Steve, you make all your videos interesting, especially pleased to see this one, as we went to Sanday in 2000 and nearly bought a property, great to see the island again, brought back a lot of memories
