@@ScotChef been trying to get hold of you you won a hat 😂

@@tostaky111 It was a new boat at the time and to be thrown in the deep end in these conditions wasn’t ideal. Had I been on my other boat things would have been under control a lot quicker. This was over a year ago and loads of great adventures and off shore passages sailing in 30knots. Great boat and nothing had happened like this since I have sorted out all the rigging and clutter on the deck. Also invested in a very decent life jacket and life lines. Check the follow up vid what caused the jam and the adventures to the Channel Islands. Thanks for watching 👌🏼

@@rogerlynham3119 I included the forecast in the video, no mention of the system. 20 knot gusts max, I wouldn’t take my family out knowingly into this. Much stronger than the forecast. Hence why I sail solo most the time. No sign of the system at the beginning of the vid, too late once we were out we couldn’t out run it. My son loves being on the boat and and he’s well looked after and safe. Sitting in playing on an I pad is equally as dangerous 👌🏼

@@sergediradourian6668 great boat ! Hopefully it’s helped you find the cheaper parts and belts! Safe sailing 👌🏼

I've bought spare parts in a car store with dimensions. Very cheap. 12 euros for all seals and bearings

@@nathanjacobi1058 thanks mate !

No problem 👍

Yes 🙌 it was a year ago and have had some great adventure now I know my way round the new boat. Big jump from a 22 foot boat 😎 thanks for watching

Amazing, where about in Australia ? 🇦🇺 thanks

@@stevep2710 hi Steve no worries ! I have mine on now in the North Sea 🌊 sailing to Gravelines 😉 keeping me warm ! Have a beer soon ⛵️ thanks for being the 1st one 👌🏼

Love this!

@@gatecrasher1970 if you have one you will have to take me out 😉👌🏼⛵️

@@tonybancae5896 Thanks Tony! Will take you up on that. Be June 25 when I’m heading to the isle of Scilly 🫡

@@Dervish2387 🤣🫡⛵️😎

@@KarenWarner-vh3vn Glad you liked it 🥰

You never call me fran 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Haha I know, cessie 🤣🤣🤣🤣

It was around the 23-26th of June. Wasn’t too bad but avoid the isle of white festival and race 1.5 weeks either side and you should be ok. I remember coming round Hayling Island and seeing 100 racing lasers coming towards me. The fear was real 😅🤣🤣🤣

@@EastCoastSailing_ thanks Rob - the lasers sound challenging! Might plan a trip south then, thanks

Lovely shots of the Solent and the Isle of Wight. We based the boat at the Royal Clarence for three months over the summer and had some wonderful sailing. Small boy plus hose = wet everything 😂

@@richardhall7822 Of all places he try’s to spray it down the hatch 😂 typical Arzon 👌🏼⛵️ just in ramsgate now heading to France 🇫🇷

@@EastCoastSailing_ slow, old, leaky?

@@sailing_whitespice Tiny bit more modern! Race pedigree 😉

@@EastCoastSailing_ definatley not a westerly then 🤣

@@shanegrimm Thanks Shane for the message. This is what it’s about sharing knowledge 👌🏼⛵️😎

Have no clue what you are doing 😂

@@christophera.shamis4117 wait till your out in that stuff, and put everything you said into practice and see how it goes 😂

@@ananda_miaoyin can assure you the boat has never ran aground. And forecast was checked. Screen shot was included in the video. 🤣

@@EastCoastSailing_ I know...its a metaphor.

@@noldushumlesnurr6169I was going to bring it to the scrubbing posts but high tide was either 3am, too early 😂 to bring round or 4pm. I would have had to wait 5 hours for low ish water to scrub it in the dark and bring back the next morning at 5am 😳. Also high winds that day so it was the best of a bad situation 😎👌🏼

@@jantrygveolsen1109 if hand steering the boat can’t keep it pointing forward, an autopilot won’t help. The boat was spun round to the port side with full lock steering on the right. Thanks. 🙏

@@mikeflower3308 hi Mike, if you watch the whole video you will have heard it was a new boat at the time. No one gets a new boat and has it set up how they like it . The boat hadn’t done any real sailing and had home made seat slats and debris in the way of key areas. I have fully gone through the boat since and had some great adventures. Also included a screen shot of the forecast and no mention of the weather.

@@andream.464 the sky looks like that 90 percent of the time here 😂. No squall lines until later on when it was too late. Forecast I include didn’t show anything like u encountered 👌🏼 good advice about the companion way. Wife’s down below 👌🏼

@@JohannesFabender that’s what I was trying to do but had a jammed head sail. Check the follow up video of the cause. Thanks 🙏

@@EastCoastSailing_ Why was the head sail jammed? I could not understand the reason. Did it not free fall down?

@@JohannesFabender I didn’t try pulling the sail off the tracks. It would have pulled me over getting tangled in the lines flogging like that. I did a separate follow up vid with a yellow looking thumbnail. Take a look and it explains it all. Basically there was to much slag in the Genoa halyard. Wrapped round the furling pole and jammed it. Combined with multiple fair leads wet sail it was impossible to pull it in. Thanks

@@dulls8475 No why’s that ?

@@EastCoastSailing_ I always get caught out in that area. I think it is to do with the SW and it being distorted off the land. It has caught me out twice. The first time was a surprise and the second one was to remind me that it is a place where this may happen. Third time has not happened as i have not sailed through there since the 90s.

@@dulls8475 I have sailed through here 4 times. Always been really pleasant however this return journey was a bit rough. Had confused waves bouncing up. In different directions. That’s why the boat veered starboard a couple of times. I always let the sail out a bit further to ensure I don’t gibe, I really need to get round to rigging up a preventer ⛵️🫡🔥

@@EastCoastSailing_ I always do the opposite, pull the main in but that is only if i have not got a preventer.

Wise words! Yes it was settled initially. Screaming wife below took precedence 😂 year on and lots of amazing adventures and experience on this boat. Big jump up from a 22 foot boat 🙏 thanks for watching 👌🏼

@@michaelgermanovsky1793 I’m pulling on the furling line for a solid minute in the video, it won’t budge, it’s on the left. Locked solid. Check the follow up video for the jam. How can you pull simultaneously when there’s a winch of like for the Genoa? Thanks for watching

@EastCoastSailing_ was your furler line on the port side or starboard? The reason I am asking is because it supposed to be on the side of rotation of the furler. If the furler is clockwise, as most are then it should be on the starboard side. In the video, you are releasing the Genoa line, but your voice over says you are pulling on the furler line. Then I see you go on the starboard side, while the port side Genoa sheet was completely let go, causing loss of control of the Genoa, making it difficult for the furler to roll. If the furler line is on the starboard side, you suppose to hold the Genoa sheet and release it simultaneously as you pull on the furler line to control the furl.

@@michaelgermanovsky1793 Port side, it’s the correct rotation and fairleads along the coach roof for the furling line is. I’m trying to retract the sail early in the vid then later on trying to untangle the lines pulling on the Genoa sheet lines

@@EastCoastSailing_ got it

@@boroian8902 🫡 amazing 🤝 I look back as it was a year ago, it was terrible. Everything that could go wrong did. Lots of learning. Check out some of the recent adventures to the Channel Islands. Glad to have you on board, and thanks for watching 🍺

@morgste The speed I mentioned 8.2 knots is the through water speed. The maximum speed my boat goes through the water before hitting its displacement speed is around 8 knots. The speed sensor instrument on the left detects how many rpm’s the paddle log speed sensor turns when water passes over it located under the boat. The GPS speed over ground is the important speed to watch which will indicates the tidal state. I was going 5 knots. I had 3.2 knots of tide against me. I was going a lot slower over ground. The tide was definitely against me otherwise I’d be going over 11.2 knots over ground. You can see the high speeds on the out going journey in calm waters. Check the tidal streams for this area if you’re unsure. The tide flows out SW past the needles 1 hour before high water Portsmouth. I also have tidal flow indicators on both chart plotters for a quick check but normally a visual check near a buoy will give you a great indication seeing the wake behind. Hope this helps. I’m a far better navigator and engineer than I am a sailor. That’s one thing you don’t need to worry about 😉 thanks for watching.

@@morgste Thanks for watching. Not about confidence. It’s a narrow estuary with lots of shallow sandbanks. Couldn’t risk getting pushed onto one with jammed head sails and subsequently tangled lines. Not enough room to run safely down wind ⛵️👍

@@controlaltdeleteninjas honestly you have written the weirdest comment. You think I would take my family out in those conditions willingly. Waste 2k on a sail… Do you think any sailor would go out without checking the forecast. I even included a screen shot of it. No mention of it at all. We couldn’t out run how quickly it came done and system wasn’t there at the beginning of the video. Watch the video again and listen rather than jumping in the comments captain salty

@@EastCoastSailing_ honestly the level of stupidity is hard to watch

Andrew calm your self down !

Maybe you and Linda could come up from Bexhill and give me some lessons ?

@@aartkoeman6907 very true !

@@integrityprojectsangusmcfa4007 thanks bud, was a year ago and loads of lessons. Had some great adventures in winds like this. Just a big jump going from a 22 foot boat to this. Used to manhandling lines now I have to rely on winches 😎⛵️

@@hamishlothian2634 wasn’t fun at the time, especially on a new much bigger boat but loads of learning since then. This was a year ago and plenty of great adventure’s on the boat since this. Thanks for watching 😎

@@Hermes-t6z Hopefully others will learn. No one shows the bad side of sailing when things go wrong and they do. Was a new boat and a big jump up from my last one so I have no shame. Thanks for watching ⛵️😎

@@peterebel7899 hi, I have an ICC plenty of sea miles. New boat and jammed head sail. Not sure what else you can do in this situation apart from wear a life jacket. Family has there’s on. Check out the follow up vid for the jam

@@EastCoastSailing_ Looking forward the next vid. A jammed headsail is mostly caused by - poor handling while unfurling the headsail (to be avoided by proper handling with slow and controlled unfurling to holt the furling line tight on the furler drum) - prior damage/ wrong setup (to be detected by a proper checking of a new boat!) How to deal with a jammed headsail? Tack without changing the headsail sheets, your headsail will stand back as we call it in my language. The ship will stand in the water very calm with minimal speed when you apply the right fixed rudder angle, no sails flapping. Train it! Yes train it! You will get time to relax, to rethink/evaluate, you can reef the mainsail, you can fix issues, you can use the restroom, take a meal, ...., all single handed. You don't need too much leeway for this, if you are running out of leeway: start and use the engine. This is great whenever the wind is stronger than you can handle, the crew gets exhausted, the boat needs some maintenance/quick fixes. This maneuver saved my arse several times across the long sailing career, and yes I had several times to fix a jammed furling sails (never in the harbor ....). You were able to role the headsail in later, it seems to be no roller issue but an issue at the long end of the line. Last, not least: Watch the weather (not the weather app!!!) Learn those skills every seafarer had across thousands of years (and sea birds across millions of years).

@@peterebel7899 thank you for taking the time to write that. Not my proudest moment. Bit embarrassing but hopefully it will deter anyone from being underprepared. This was a year ago and had some amazing adventures. Such a jump up from 22 foot bilge keel boat to this. You can’t man handle lines on bigger boats. Tonnes of learning and always willing to learn. I will get some heavy weather training. Just not something I have had much exposure but you will see I have sailed in strong winds in the later vids of my adventure to the Channel Islands. ⛵️😎 fair winds

@@EastCoastSailing_ Train! I was on keel boats up to force 12+ (measured!) in demanding waters like the Irish Sea. I was in a three mast tall ship when we broke the lower forestay of the main mast in 55 knots with the corresponding sea state on the Atlantic 500miles SW of Ireland We made the failure on a 70 foot yacht to motor in the wind to fix issues in the rigg in the middle of the night in the Baltic. Next day we decided to retrain by "heaving to", what a difference! Turn over and let the back held foresail stabilize and slow down the boat to but comfort and time! This is one of the most under rated tactics in sailing! The English term is "heave to" ua-cam.com/video/BbGYRNXLCDg/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/uQTOfns6OjU/v-deo.html Train the strong end, but there is no need to challenge your boat, use fair winds to enjoy sailing! But train this tactics with your boat, it is the best method for taking time for the restroom, cooking fresh tea, ... I enjoyed it i.e. in the Salish Sea when we had to go the whole length against strong winds with a 32ft yacht to get a rest whenever needed.

Basically 😂 and a screaming wife down below 👇 thanks for watching ⛵️😎
