How to SCARE your girlfriend! - Free Range Sailing Ep 111
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 гру 2019
- This week we depart the Gold Coast Seaway ready to ride the northerly winds 100 nautical miles to the mouth of the Clarence River in New South Wales coastline. Once the wind picks up in the afternoon, we go the fastest we've ever been on Mirrool surfing downwind. It made for an exciting sail (as well as being a little bit nerve wracking for Pascale!).

At around 12:00, Pascal said "My goodness". I didn't know people still said those phrases anymore. It was so utterly sweet to hear that.
Rajeev Kamble , thats what we say when we’re REALLY crapping it!!
The overall quality of this channel is just the best.
Another fine one Matey!! You are our favorite sailors on the mighty blue and are becoming VERY accomplished at sailing and capturing the moments on camera :-)
Great work on this channel! Just the two of you, no camera person and no scuba gear!
beautiful underwater shots snorkeling and totally educational in a down to earth way!
Fair winds....and Fosters
It's fun seeing you sail through places I've lived. I've seen that Gold Coast Seaway with 5-6 foot wave faces breaking on the inside of the seaway. Deep inside. The surf outside so big the light house on the end completely disappearing...and that's on the small sets. There's footage of a big catamaran surfing a wave, standing half way up it's mast, into the seaway. A calm passage through there is not something to be disappointed by. I note over 5000 views just 4 hours after video release. Killing it.
Congrats on a successful exciting sail. Downwind sailing like that requires confidence in the boat, rigging, and seamanship.
As much as you guys share there are still many things that just can't be shown. Dolphins swimming at the bow in pitch black night leaving ghostly trails of bioluminescence is one of the most magical things I've ever seen. Yet it's something that can't be filmed and can barely be described. Thanks for reminding me of that memory.
Fair winds.
I have been watching you two sail for a long time .
Been thinking about getting one myself thank you for the entertainment you provide.
And the Sailors' Nemesis appears once again at the most inopportune time to distract and annoy. Everyone's favorite, The Moron on a Jet Ski. 2:45
Look they provide a great public service. They aerate the water which improves it's oxygen carrying capacity for the fish. They spend money at marine businesses. They pay double licence fees. And some of them are organ donors.
@@philgray1023 lmao
Heavy seas get a little freaky, Rode a typhoon out once, 4 days and nights. vivid memories😬even now. ❤️ your post.
I don't think Troy has had a bigger smile. Love tuning in guy's. Every ep. for about a yr now. Great trip - well planned really. Good to wait for the Northerlies.
Thank you so much for the excitement. Splendid indead.
I grew up in Yamba and have crossed that bar in all kinds of weather and at night as well. It can be tricky and more than a few people have gotten into trouble especially at night, so you guys did very well! I hoped you enjoyed the Clarence Valley, it holds a very special place in my heart.
Enjoy Yamba and upstream. Did the same in reverse with my wife a few years back (Coffs to the Seaway) with the tail end of a southerly buster. Character building and skill defining. Really enjoying the vibe of your vids.
I guess its great to find out that your vessel can handle such instances. Great Video!!
What a Awesome Sail, Troy is a laugh a min when Mirrool is flying.
Awesome river system and great fishing
Love from Canada watch every show look forward to every one.
You two are brilliant!
What a hoot of a sail!!!
Wooo Hooo!!
Cheers Gray
Brizzie
Great Sail you'll always remember that one!
Excellent episode for quality and content. Great fun. Fair winds & regards from the UK
I feel the need....The need....for speed! Great video you 2.
Super cool sail, great stuff.
Flying for sure! Great one to see ... must have been exciting 👍
Great flight this time!
:-D
Thx for taking us with you!
:-D
Excellent as usual!!!
Another great and informative video!
You make it look so easy.
Love your vids.
Fantastic sailing folks luv it cheers
Felt like I was onboard sailing with you. Wow! Great Video.
Great sailing ⛵️ can always count on a lot of sailing while on your Vlogs!!Your boat is fast!! Yea so much for hull speed calculations 😂Thanks for sharing glad you made it safely to the harbour
Pascal you need a hug girl🤗 great job. I couldn’t have not did it😱
Thank you for putting on your safety gear.
Nice video...predictwind for currents has been a big game changer for us..not those great helping currents we get to factor in (or the bad hurting currents, but then you sort of know where to go to avoid the worst of bad currents. A ways...great video as usual...enjoyed it! -§Rebecca on SV Brick House
Awesome as always! 👍
8.5 Knots is almost 10 mph. The fuel cost is slightly more than $0.00 USD. :) Dramimine is $8.32USD per 36 tablets !
Thanks for a great video. The intro is pretty special.
We really enjoyed hat guys, thanks for sharing. Ant, Cid & the Pooch crew.
The videos get better and Pascal gets more beautiful every day!
I'm glad I came across your channel, enjoyed this sail thanks for sharing , take care be safe
Hope you watch some off the earlier ones when we were in the north of Australia. Amazing place!
Thank you - absolutely love you both, hope to meet you on the water one day xx
Epic yet again!! I have my 35-year-old 40 foot hunter almost ready for the first passage to the Bahamas. Wish you two would come along?🤔😏😊
"Free Range Sailing" video=bad week salvaged! 11 knots!?! Thanks once again for sharing with us!
Yeah, bioluminescence is awesome! Everything is more fun with trippy light effects, even flushing the toilet becomes a spectacle...
Awesome guys
Not normally this hard with interjected nice and tight ..am I even old enough to watch this channel Mom? This folks is why we sail...;-) Stunning footage the pair of you..x
Bars! My first bar-crossing was in 2017; the Wide Bay bar going in......the chart plotter said we did 19.6knots. Maybe the world’s fastest Zeston 36?
Terry Mitchell
Hello from North Carolina . Nice sailing .
That's a typical run south from the Seaway to the Clarence. I only allow 18 hours in my Top Hat [25'] and it's always slow until you reach Tweed Head. I'm sure you will have found it to be much the same down the rest of the NSW coast.
Most always an adventure with you two !!! 👍⛵✨☀️✨🌊⚓️⛵️🏝✨💕✨
Pascale. You have graduated to the next level B.R.A.V.O. !!
B safe guy's awesome video.
Very nice sailing, really enjoyed that, here in the UK it's vicarious sailing only at the moment, we're having some shocking weather. These older boats can show a surprising turn of speed for their size/displacement/hull form - mine's a 1969 Bowman 26, amazing for her size, thinking of maybe doing the Jester Azores challenge, maybe maybe even transatlantic. Fair winds...
Bowman yachts sport such nice lines. Hope she carries you proudly if you do sail to the Azores.
Cuz I've been watching you pretty much from the very beginning and I love your videos. I just wish you'd do more fishing and Diving like you used to catch some of those big Barras. Happy sailing guys.
The whole of Australia can't be like Kimberley!
Geez! Love the way you maneuvered that sail Troy. Pascal, have you seen the movie Maiden? You'd love it and it would give you more confidence. You have the skills.
Your very cool guys happy Christmas and happy new year be safe wherever your journey takes you
Just watched finding Nemo tonight, and hearing you guys mention the EAC made me chuckle :)
Hey duuude ! 😂
Well done guys ! amazing ! and in total darkness
Feckin flying luv it encore
Epic video!. 😎 👏👏👏👏👏👏
(@11:50) 10 1/2 knots on a 30’ yacht is well exceeding hull speed! (Gotta love surfing!!!) ;-)
Amazing video... so much fun. Wish I were with you.
You have inspired us to do the same, retirement is almost here and it's time to decide what to do, we have a 4 YO we adopted at birth so plenty of time to learn all I can about sailing.
nice video thanks
Do hope you fellas are both OK and that the recent terrible fires have not caused you any family or personal harm, or danger. Keep well and if you can let your fans know what is going on, pls.
That was exciting! Watching on my big screen TV, I could feel the wave motion. Thanks for another great video.
Yes, it really adds to it with a big screen, don't you think, mine is a projection 3.2m x 2.1. Really feels like being aboard. Heaps of fun watching these guys!
Hope the resolution is good on the big screen, we never get to see them except on our little computers!
@@FreeRangeLiving The picture is excellent in every way. Resolution, contrast and color saturation.
@@FreeRangeLiving You need to see them on a big screen sometime.
Can we take that as a future invite?
Suddenly speedy boat!
Merry Christmas y’all.
You too mate and all the best for your family in 2020!
8:36 the girl needed a hug & reassurance there Mate rather than an explanation!
How to toughen up your girlfriend
She gets spoiled enough already!
Tora Tora , The Captain is the Captain and Crew are crew. But yes this in not on a ship but boyfriend and girlfriend so yes in this situation I would have done the same. LOL
@@FreeRangeLiving Hahaha!!! Well said!!!
Thanks
Love that you are in an area that enlightens my heart. Possible you can can include an explanation of Polars? I'm sure Mirrool loved smashing expectations.
We don't really use polars on Mirrool. I'm not much of a racing sailor. It's more ' the vibe of the thing'
That was great .
I dont think i would like it in the night, but that was some great sailing!
Have a awesome marry christmas you 2 and a happy new year from us in thailand.
Finally, the land of milk and honey...👍and threw in some excellent downhill sailing to boot.⛵😁 welcome to NSW.
We are aiming to head down to the Clarance River in a couple of weeks. Hopefully we won't have to cross the bar at night.
Just stumble across your channel, Love it guy’s i subd keep up the good work👍👍
Welcome to the crew, hope you enjoy the videos from the start
Free Range Sailing i am watching through them 👌👌
Is it amazing how 8 knots or so can seem so freaking fast?
WOW!
Richard
Nice run .... that made me jelly ... I miss that so much .... 🤘❤🤘
Welcome Back...oh wait it was me that wuz gone.🥴
Hull speed? Pah! 👍
heya oh wouw that fast would make my head go crazy too
Great stuff guys, we are planning to do the same trip shortly, will be our first time offshore in the boat. Looking forward to the adventure. I saw the current absolutely screaming from the 80-100m line on the charts, we’re thinking of heading out there and catching it all the way south. How far out did you guys travel? Cheers!
Yup that's where we were 100m contour. Have a look on the windy currents section as well it will tell you where it is right now. We're heading to Jervis today. Hope we can cross paths!
Free Range Sailing yeah good to know cheers! Can’t wait to get out there! Enjoy JB it’s beautiful down there, definitely bust out your squidding gear, it’s full of them
COOL you guys were cookin'! I am a recent subscriber, what make and model is your boat? I have a Pacific Seacraft Orion and our boats look somewhat similar. But I couldn't get my 10,000 pound full keel boat up to 8 plus knots! Thanks for the great video. Ben S/V Dawn
Clansman 30 g.co/kgs/3w7k7S
The most similar design to ours in the US is the Alberg 30 or in Europe, the Elizabethan 29. No nice wood trim throughout our little vessel.
Riley and Nikki hit 24 kts, on La Vagabond on their North Atlantic passage with Greta. It must be such an incredible feeling when the wind powers you so strongly.
Wow those Outremers really can fly! We're pretty happy with our knot per dollar rate though 😃
@@FreeRangeLiving Mirool is a fine ship, she has and will taken you great places, many others cannot follow.
Perhaps it was the ship's protesting to that child's certainties on very ambiguous matters and wanted to get rid of her asap.
This could be the second sailing channel I leave if this continues coming up for discussion.

“That child’s” only certainties are that the world’s politicians are not taking the scientists seriously. Are you guys saying she’s wrong?
Hi, I’ve just subscribed. Really interested in your sailing strategy updates as well as the locations. When you gybe wing on wing (goose winging as we call it on the Solent, UK), do you have a gybe preventer and keep the sails as they are across each gybe or do you move the boom across each time? Many thx, stay safe and Merry Xmas. Nick (Claus).
Sorry both! I just watched the next couple of episodes where you explain the preventer / defender, thankyou from up here in the UK.
You two are soooo lucky !! To be able to swim and see such beautiful seascape's !! Can you tell me what underwater gear you are using ? If I can find them, I have some camera filters that I used for color correcting underwater photo's and video. Mostly for correcting the blue, green and cyan bias from sea water ! Some of the filters are sharp cutoff di-chroic's, so you get less blue only ! So, let me know what the lens diameter threads are used for screw-on filters ? And, let me know where to send them ! Take Care and Merry X-Mas !!
Thanks Joe but we are heading into wilder places and won't have an address for some time.
What’s your speed through the water? I struggle to see 8knots sog on our 30ft unless there is a decent tide
Wow the wind finally found you or you found it & were "truckin". I don't understand 'reefing' with the sail. Great video & I'm gonna like the next one.
Reading is a term for reducing the surface area of a sail by taking part of it in.
@@FreeRangeLiving Ah good & thanks now I know. I sub another sailing channel but never understood their explanation.
Love watching your vids!! very cool! Question...what is your preventer set up and how are you dealing with your main in a rolly seaway?
ua-cam.com/video/o6n6UyeCT9M/v-deo.html
That video shows the line through a pulley at the bow that we use as main preventer and forward spinnaker pole guy line. A main sheeted against a preventer is fine in a roll.
You Rock Pascal..pretty sure You have more 'piedras' than most of the guys i know..Escorted in through bioluminescent seas by dolphins for Y'all. For me, a lonely raven flying over my truck as we meet up in the snowy donut shop parking lot looking for a breakfast sandwich..You Win.
THAT IS WHAT I CALL SAILING !!!
nice Komatsu hat
Oooo, I'd get sooo ill with all that pitching. Pretty smooth sailing here on Puget Sound, even during a squall!
Yep was looking for my pills....lol
A question. Was Mirrool a purchase from Yorkeys Knob. I believe I knew the previous owner who was a great guy who is not with us anymore. I used to be moored two away and we had great boatie chats for a few years. Always admired the little ship. May well be wrong...
It was from Russ, sorry to hear he has passed.
Bonjour, vos vidéos sont géniales !! Dommage qu'il n'y ait pas de sous titres en français !! Bravo a vous !!
Three things in life guaranteed to make you smile....Dolphins, weddings and hearing a baby laugh.
Only fast sailing that I have ever done was getting a dinghy sailer to plane. Quite fun.
Troy, there is a site called www.windy.com on the right side there are more layers, click that scroll down to currents. Very handy for the east coast after you get out of the protection of the GBR, as handy as the wind forecast, maybe more reliable.
They talked about Windy back when they were in the whitsundays, I think they use it still.
Yes mate, we do look at it alongside the Meteye program from the BOM. There's a lot of resources on that great little app.
@@FreeRangeLiving Good'O you're on to it, just wondered. Its better use is going north when it is against you, hugging the bays for the counter current, we use to just guess it and now a push of a button.
Eeeeehhhh, ya lubbers! We get bigger waves on our duck pond. LOL.
