Thanks so much for your support,
The adventure continues.
Safe sailing.
Boat:
White Shadow is a Van De Stadt ‘Seal’ 36 (11 metres). She is hand made in steel, 2004, with a round bilge (hull) and a modified coach roof. This makes her a ‘one off’ and in my opinion the most beautiful Van De Stadt 36 ever built.
The camera gear:
Main camera is a Panasonic Hc- V700 with a Rode External mic with a sponge and dead kitten attached.
Action, underwater scenes and small blogging is done with two Osmo action cams. Some boat shots are done with a Dji gimbal camera.
Editing:
Final cut pro on a Macbook. Most of the material for each video is filmed over a period of several weeks or so and the editing of each episode is normally done over a day. This process can take longer if original music is used or permissions are needed for copyrighted materials etc. Much time is spent sorting out technical problems. In this case I normally get the help of a younger person who understands computerie stuff!
There are also times when filming, editing and uploading is not possible due to being at sea or in locations with no internet access.
Content:
I have found that filming and releasing material over a period of time is better than doing ‘vlog’ style videos and trying to make episodes out of whats happened in a week, regardless if it’s good content or not. By filming over a period of time I can be more selective in what goes into each video. My aim is to avoid ‘bland and mundane’ and have at least one or two exciting and interesting events in every video. Every video has to be entertaining.
Comments and being at sea:
I love reading your comments. Most weeks Im able to read everyone. I cant reply to everybody but I do read and enjoy them. Keep them coming! There are times that It might seem I'm not on the internet for certain periods, this is normally when Im at sea on passage. While Im out on the Ocean I have completely no communications with the outside World.

You live the life that so many of us dream of. Thank you for 'sacrificing' yourself for our enjoyment.
Ohhhh! That’s what that intense musical ending was! The SACRIFICE! I thought I was going to have to change my shorts…….😮
When you eat a piece of bread together with some plain rice and say, "that was good". Then you know you've sailed for a long, long time!
Great 👍 Job.
Barry is living the dream! :)
Cheers Barry!! We're all envious of your journey.
Ya baby! 👍🍻
The sunsets you show us are stunningly beautiful.
Yeah baby- Barry the two 1/2 year's worth of wait for the beach and beer.
Good to see you and ole Shadee girl getting on with the adventure.
Always makes my Friday when I get an update from the Old Seadog.
May the wind fill your sails to steer by, the current sea state be to your liking,
the emergency beer cold enough, and the next beach glorious.
l can dig that Berry walking on the beech with a cold beer in tow,,,,it dont get no better than that.
And the cruising mojo is back! Great episode, Barry. DIY, sailing, dinghy adventures, cooking, and drone shots. Your channel has it all! 😀
You're livin' a life of envy, Barry. Thanks for bringing us along and sharing.
Regards.

Bravo Capt. Barry, Bravo! Thinking of the distance traveled, the obstacles overcome in the time period, the remote, desolation of the beautiful island where you're anchored, requires a sincere Atta Boy Capt.! You've achieved what others only dream .. Stay well, and Thanks!
Yeah baby!!!🤙😊
White Shadows looking good in that warm sunshine.
There are two of them??
So happy for you, soak up your surroundings and on to the next beautiful experience. You only live once, nice work Barry 👍⛵🏴☠️
What you were looking at is coral spawning Barry, we have this every year herein the Whitsunday Islands.
This is great, many a mystery can be solved when shared with thousands. Coral spawning, not everybody gets to see that. As a geologist I'm always looking at the rocks as well.
Thank you for the video. Indeed that is a paradise.
Deserve a slice of paradise after the last trip...
Crafty seadog pedaling a few bags of gear😁👌... Sweet 😂
Paradise found! Congratulations you old Seadog. Another great video Barry. Thanks for sharing and giving us a dramatic ending
Cheers Barry !!! I'm happy for you...finally to have a beer on a tropical island. 👍👍
Glad to see Barry got to see a bit of paradise without a beating!
Watch the fingers Barry, you need those things on occasion.
You've got to bury some treasure on one of these desert islands, Barry, so people can follow in your footsteps and try to find it. And your legend will grow.
The scummy floating stuff you encountered is most likely trichodesmium. An algal bloom. We often see it sailing inside the Great Barrier Reef here in Australia.
Take care Barry
Cheers ! 🍻 👍
Life is worth enjoying and you are worth enjoying it
Smooth sailing Seadog
Oh, WOW! That’s all I can say! I need some paradise, I know nothing about sailing but oh my it takes my breath away 😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤ Thx for the memories even if I’m not there with you.
Glad it’s your place and time great job Barry
You're an inspiration Barry ... Stay Safe & Fair Winds!!
Great video. If you run out of duct tape, superglue works really well on cuts.

Brilllllliant Barry- enjoyed an anchor beer in your honor this week ⚓️

Lol I watch your show sometimes to just see the sky over the pacific, just so clean and clear. Wherever I move I always have this hazy crap all over the sky. But I remember the clear blue sky’s of my youth.

Lovely little island. Glad you made it there. 🙏
Hi Barry, got an old Bukh 36 hp that leaked oil, put in a bottle of rinsole stop oil leak, it renews the seals, worked for me , may be worth a try, about $15 , all the best
great travels glad you made it to your destination in a beautiful. enjoy your time there hope you're going to stick around for a while the weather is great.I sailed up and down the Eastern Seaboard and the Great Lakes as I live up in Upstate New York Rochester, Lake Ontario. so I absolutely look forward to every video that youyou post happy to see what you're doing where you're at, I live vicariously through your expertise of sailing the great waterways of this world oceans, kind of wish now I would have kept by 32 foot ketch-rigged, that I set up for live-aboard,can't take back the decisions that you made while you're young but thankful that we have UA-cam today in men out they're like you doing what you do thanks again bless your brother have a great week
Very good I always marvel at the time taken to get the shot enjoy
BARRY! When I first started watching this wonderful channel you were floating around the southern Gulf of Mexico, engine off (because of no fuel), following the currents. You showed your sailing track and it was just a lazy path wherever the current took you. The laissez-faire approach to sailing "hooked" me right away and I haven't missed an episode since! You even pushed me to dust off my old 70s Chrysler 22 and get back on the lake. Thanks for that!!!
Calm winds and Fair Seas to you my friend!
Barry...what you saw on the tree that looked like pods were green papaya which you can eat if prepared correctly like a salad or eat when ripened to a yellow/orange color...depending on variety can be quite delicious.
Congrats, you fulfilled your dream, you are a legend, an inspiration to all fellow adventurers
Nice
keep it up barry
