Nice
Lovely! And found a new artist to check up.
Thanks Ralph. I only use creative commons songs. Many of them are superb and stand comparison with anything written. Do have a look at my other efforts for examples ...Brian.
Is he using a partially inflated dinghy as a lounge chair? 1:50
Great boat Contessa . I am looking to buy
Yes, I like the boat, 25 years now. Good luck with the search.
lovely
Thanks, video is nice to look back on, so easy to forget the good bits.
Was this summer 2018 for the first time in Golfe du Morbihan and both me and my wife fell in love with it. Absolutely sailing heaven.
Yes, it's a great place to sail. My wife likes calm water and swimming so it was perfect for her. Regards B
Nice video! What is your home marina, looks very beautiful! Like your bleu Contessa 32, what year is she from? Just bought a 1978 Contessa myself in Lymington.
I am based in Plymouth but tend to change moorings now and again, that was PYH marina. The boat is from 1979 sail no 679. Good luck with your new boat and thanks for the nice comments. Brian.
Love the video. How old must one be to be an old bloke?
It's a state of mind...I have been an old bloke since the age of 45. Thanks for watching. B
If there was the game of golf and some surfing involved, this would be my idea of the perfect retirement!!
Lovely video. At last NOT a video where 90% is about a close-up of the film-maker chatting incessantly. I'd have liked to see your contessa more though...
Thanks lungarotta.The films are just a bit of fun and add interest to a sail trip. I think the sound of my voice would bore even me to death! Ciao, Brian
This is what I'm going to do when I become an old bloke.
Excellent. My only advice is to buy your ideal boat well in advance so you are ready to go as soon as you are freed from work.
True :)
@@troelsmogensen7259 my advice would be give up work now and do this before you're too old and tired
