Canary Islands, no canaries, Saint Vincent Island, no Saints, Virgin Islands, no.......That's funny! Love your videos and adventures. I always use water from the tap to open the casings. Not high pressure, because you run the risk of making a hole in the casing, just a gentle flow of water. Just as you did later in the video. Cheers from Winnipeg.
Hey Peter, yup those canaries . . . . . Can't find them anywhere. Yeah I realized those casings were rather delicate, so I handled with care. Can't wait to make the next batch, I'm sure it will go easier. We want to try and make Droewors next time (you know it?).
Yep, having been buying my borevors from a south african outlet at 6.90 pound sterling for 500 grams. Eina, no more, going to make my own. Braai pap en vors. So maak mens. Fair winds, happiness and rum
I had to watch an episode of my favourite sailing channel “sailing Sisu”. However i was slightly disillusioned, No beer was found in this episode, although the sausage looked pretty dam tasty..
First comment is always the best comment. DId you ever get a batch from the still? If so what did you make? Did I miss that episode? Keep up the great adventures so I can live vicariously through you guys. Peace!
Oh yes we did indeed make a lot of batches . . . . We've made quite a variety, but our "go to's" is rum, gin and vodka. We've even made Pina Coladas :-) Being in Rum heaven, we haven't used the still, but will most likely haul it out again once we reach USA. Thank's for being first :-)
Enjoyed the vid. Thanks for taking us with you. Can I ask a unrelated question please…. do you have water in your bilges or are they always dry? Starting to look at boats and no dry bilges so far. Thanks for sharing and if you can answer.
Our bilges are normally dry. Whenever there is water, we look for the cause and fix it. For instance, our water maker acted up the other day, one of the filter housings had a crack in, so easy to fix.
Also if you have time…. Looking at older Leopards there is a lot of stairs involved. Mid hull, cockpit to salon etc. when talking to folks on those older Leopards do they find that hard to live with or does it just become accepted sort of thing? (Trying to decide if single level hull and living is a must have or a nice-to-have). Thanks.
@@tonyfromaus7855 , it is preference. all the older cats had that aft cockpit to saloon step because of regulations nowadays, the newer boats have that 'step', but it is now a hidden water drain. the sugar scoops, mid hull and helm station will always be there. We have seen very old couple circumnavigating with monohulls, which are heeling most of the time and have those steep steps into the saloon down below. Not sure if I heard complaints about that, because it is sort of staying fit thing too...one has to go up the mast, pulling lines, fixing things, changing/fixing sails, etc. Unless you are planning not to sail and just live on board, then you need some ways to keep your legs and arms strong 🙂 so, comfort is an issue, but staying strong to handle heavy seas is a requirement... but like I said, we circumnavigate, others stay at anchor, others motor, we use sails more often than motors....each to their own, which boils down to preference 🙂
@@SailingSisu that was an excellent answer sir, thank you very much. I had wondered about whether cruising will be good or bad for our fitness. Since we are unfit now it can’t be any worse. So it may be better! :)
Lekker guys
Thank you Richard!!!!

@@SailingSisu I've never made Droewors, but I sure do like eating them. ;-)
Well, let's give it a go 👍🏼
