Thank you Dieter for another informative episode. I’m not convinced the ferry master had right of way being on your port side and Whitehorse abaft his beam. The lines on the charts are informative only indicating routes, however I’m not sure what local rules are in-force for Oban harbour. Either way discretion is the best course of action given the size disparity. Take care.

Another great episode from your travels. I enjoyed it even if the ferry captain wasn’t so ! 🤣🤣🤣

Local sailors do often traverse the Corryvreckan, however, it is very dependent on conditions. Slack water is the only recommended time when it is safe to traverse. Sailing to Oban though the most direct route is the one you followed.

I think you mean 4 Bar oil pressure 4 PSI and your engine is F'???ed

4 PSI of oil pressure ???

Hi Dieter, yet another fantastic video of your adventure, thanks. you are becoming my favourite boating channel. stay safe.🛥

Another great episode of your travels. Thank you for sharing this with us. Safe journey.

You should consider getting a drone. It would really improve your footage! Regardless, enjoy your videos.

Dieter, I was slave to 36-109 built in Hong Kong about 1969. A woodie. with a single. She was a project boat and I spent years trying to restore her to something near original. Fortunatly A Canadian couple are carrying on with the restoration but it is a very long process. Our cruising grounds were Puget Sound Georgia Straits and Desolation Sound. Very few canals and LOTS of Islands, all salt water. Wish you well and many pleasant trips.

HI Dieter, to quote Forrest Gump "shit happens"as long as both of you and the boat were ok , and able to provide many more fantastic memories of your trip. take care

!👍💚💚💚

In narrow waterways there’s always the possibility of grounding when away from the central line. So pleased that all was well after carrying out some repairs.

Otäckt med grundstötning 😮, men hur lagade du propellern? Fick du bada

great video, perfect weather for a grand banks, may not be fun for the crew, but the boat handles it very well.

Hi, Thanks for the great video, but please, get rid of the awful scottish muzak. As a Scot I think I can say that there is nothing worse that This type of soul destroying trash.😒 otherwise a fantastic view of a lovely area, thanks 😀

The horses are small versions of the giant kelpies at Grangemouth.

Tack för trevlig video

A great vlog easily explaining the procedure. Thanks for sharing.

Hello Dieter, a very nostalgic video reminding me of the many years I spent training on submarines surface and dived circumnavigating the Isle of Arran. Looking forward to your journey through the Crinan Canal. Thank you for sharing.

The last two occasions I visited the canal the weather very warm and sunny , not with a boat by the way but a motorhome, staying at Lochgilphead for a week. Love seeing you both transiting this stretch by boat . Looking forward to the next vlog. Thank you for sharing.

It is in fact not the most western inhabited islands in norway. The most western inhabited island is located in the west of Solund, and it is called Nautøyna.

Fascinating to learn how weight distribution and c/g relevance plays such an important role in fuel efficiency and choosing a capacity that is beneficial to a safe passage. Many thanks for sharing.

Just happened upon your channel and found the video very interesting and also so relaxing to watch. I shall try and catch up with previous episodes over the next few days. Thanks for sharing. Safe passage.

Skönt o se att ni lever 😊

Great video.

Hello Dieter. Great to have you back after your technical difficulties. Wise decision to delay your crossing of the North Channel. You would have been beam to sea making it a very uncomfortable passage. Thank you for your videos and I look forward to your crossing to Campbeltown.

Now that I have read through the other comments I see that you are running Twin Sabre M135'S. They appear to perform a little better than the much older Lehmans. I have to say, I am a little jealous as I dont think my budget is going to stretch to a vessel fitted with such modern engines

Hi Dieter! I hope you are having a good time. Thanks for the content, I am enjoying watching you on your travels. You have been helping me unwittingly, because I was in the process of looking for a boat to undertake "The Great Loop" which is a 6000 nautical mile circuit of The Eastern Seaboard including many sorts of cruising. A lot of it is carried out on inland waterways including many rivers, canals, The Great Lakes and there are also some open ocean sections including The Gulf of Mexico and several others. I had already decided on a Grand Banks 36 before I discovered your channel but watching this video and seeing how well "Whitehorse" performed has reinforced my decision. She really coped very well. I appreciate that much of the time you were motoring into a Headsea but I really expected to see more rolling, especially when you altered your course so that you were almost quartering the waves when you neared the safe port. I was wondering, is she fitted with a stabilizer of any kind? I would be surprised if you answer yes to this as I have been looking for a while and have looked at many GB's of this size and I don't think I have ever seen one that has but I was so surprised by the lack of heeling, I felt I had to ask. Also, I was wondering if she is fitted with the twin 120hp Lehmans or something else? Thanks Dieter!😉 Keep em coming!!!

Nice! I am a Grand Banks fan, approaching retirement age and thinking about getting one like you did. I have no experience with rhe buying process of a large boat; how did you find the independent inspector?

The footage from behind the helm really gives us a perspective of being at the wheel.

Often wonder what size waves the Andrea Gail saw??

As a Norwegian GB fan who has lived in Greystones just south of Dublin, I enjoyed seeing the landscape from the seaside.

The Norwegian government should explore more options for tunnel digging. As politics has postponed this project, and the focus and large tax money distribution now goes to Gaza, it time to invite the world’s best tunnel diggers to Norway, and it could mean peace in the Middle East too. In addition to the Stad tunnel, there are need for much more tunnel digging in this country. Norway already takes advantage of guest workers from Nepal, to build walk pats / steps to the city mountains. Cut the BS of politics, delaying such hands-on tunnel projects, and we have long lasting results and peace in the world. Any culture and languages for part-time workers are of no discrimination here. The ancient Egyptians did it, why not modern Vikings ?

"In which time of the year did you make the trip

I have a 1974 42 classic. What year is yours and does it have a wood hull? Looking forward to seeing your adventures.

Excellent video! Thank you

Thank you so much for sharing your adventures, it keeps me motivated as my retirement nears. I plan on doing the same thing in the Pacific Northwest , Canada and south east Alaska. Hopefully in a Grand Banks 42. Love what you doing here, subscribed!

I enjoy watching your steaming through hard weather, as much as doing it myself in my 1978 36’ Classic, but I would like more context: what RPM you are running the engines, speed over ground, wave height and wind speed. Perhaps you could show your display occasionally or describe conditions as you encounter them. In those terms, what do you consider unsafe conditions?

Hello Dieter. Thank you for another great instalment of your sea journey with MY Whitehorse. You really captured the character and vibrancy of Dublin.

Nice weather again! How many hours on your Perkins diesels?

Wonderful! Looks like you had great weather for your crossing.

This was a great description of that process of looking for and buying a boat. I was glad to get the European perspective. Ultimately not that different than in the US.

If still in the area stop in Skerries great pubs & food in the harbour & town. That strip in Dalky is the zillionairs row.. popstarts and tax exiles >)

Tack för dina fina filmer på dej o dina kamrater på väg till Norge 😊 har sett alla nu o ser fram emot resten ..mvh stefan hellemar

Hi Dieter, Deine Strömungsinformationen in diesem waren sehr interessant, habe das noch nirgendwo so erklärt gesehen. RobHK ist soviel ich weiss Norweger und erfolgreicher UA-camr, vielleicht wäre er bereit, Dir mit einigen tips, wie Du schneller zu mehr Erfolg auf UA-cam kommen kannst zu helfen. Ich hab mit ihm vor ein paar Monaten einmal korrespondiert, weil mir seine Husqvarna so gefällt, vielleicht mag er sich an das erinnern. Er ist äusserst nett. Wer weiss vielleicht lebt ihr ja nicht so weit auseinander und man könnte sich vielleicht mal treffen. Es gibt aber auch einen Schweizer, seinen Aufnahmen zufolge lebt er im Thurgau, der posted Videos wie man mit dem iPhone cinematic filmen kann und ich finde er ist sehr gut, vor allem wie er seine Methodik erklärt und zeigt. Wenn Dich das interessiert, such ich seinen Kanal raus. Ich sehe wie sehr Du Dich anstrengst und würde mich sehr über Deinen Erfolg freuen. ;)

Thank you Dieter for your calming and enchanting videos aboard MY Whitehorse. I spent 37 years in the Royal Navy rising to captain of ships and submarines, sailing the Irish Sea and West Coast of Scotland many times. One of m favourite appointments was Navigating Officer and I enjoy your informative insights into passage planning. Keep up the excellent work.

Enjoy this new episode and thanks for your comments.

Thank you for a truly beautiful tranquil video, I thoroughly enjoyed it .
